A team which have no quality will not yield results, as simple as that.
This is what Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger said after his side was held to a 1-1 draw against Middlesbrough at their home ground for the second successive time.
“Very frustrating, at the moment you can see problems in the fact we were 1-0 down when it looked easy to keep a clean-sheet because Middlesbrough was all about defending and in the end we dropped two points against a team who had one shot on goal.”
“We couldn’t finish them off and we didn’t use the pitch well and we lacked sharpness in the final third and their keeper did the rest.”
“I am concerned because we have dropped points, not for the quality. I feel we have as much quality as ever but at the moment we cannot take the points and that is disturbing for the players as well.”
“We have massive potential in this team but at the moment we don’t get the points we deserve – we should have nine points but we have two and we are not happy with that, but that doesn’t mean this team doesn’t have this quality.”
Well, Arsene Wenger should have just admitted that his side is too awful with no quality to compete in the EPL.
When you lose points, it means that the side is simply lousy. Furthermore, getting a miserable 2 points out of 9 for 3 games is simply pathetic.
The team having potential is one thing, achieving results is another. No such thing as who deserves this points and who does not.
A team which has potential and quality, and also which work their socks out will yields results, as simple as that.
Maybe what Arsene Wenger meant was that, Arsenal have the potential to produce atrocious performance each time they play?
A team which have no quality will not yield results, as simple as that.
This article is just a disgruntled soccer fan not getting his way. He talks down the Arsenal Football organization and coach Wenger. First of all team Arsenal is one of the stronger clubs in the European premiere league. Second off Coach Wenger is an amazing coach and will lead his team to a successful season. Arsenal is a team of refined players that have been trained since childhood. Kids join the Arsenal football organization in hopes of one day becoming a member of the team. To even be on Arsenal’s reserve team would be an honor in itself. A comment like this is ridiculous and shows that this person has not done their research before opening there mouth. Arsenal has never been considered an unorganized team and never will. Right in this person’s quote coach Wenger describes every aspect of Arsenal’s game against Middlesbourgh that led them to the 1-1 tie. They know where they go wrong an work to fix it. One game proves nothing. A season is what proves a lot. A team with a successful season that can make it to the championship league has the right to say they are good. A team like Arsenal has proved themselves time after time. If Arsenal isn’t being considered a good team in the EPL then Real Madrid and Barcelona will have no competition.
