So the reason Arsenal are not doing so well this season in the EPL is because all the other teams play dirty? The EPL is not a dirty league overall. i dont know where you get that from man. Its competitive, i think thats the word you were looking for. Its known as a tough league but not a dirty one.

Its a bit daft to say that, for the 2 seasons that Arsenal have not achieved so much, its because all of a sudden the EPL got dirty. I think there may be other reasons mate.

Now if you mean that your players have not been able to deal with the toughness of the league, then thats a different matter. Although to be honest, i think your young players have begun to hold their own recently. Its just taken a while for them to get used to it. Fabregas can be just as competitive ( dirty?) as the rest of them.

No, I believe he means dirty, although not necessarily with the bad connotation. The trend recently is for teams that don't have really have talent to muscle their way through opponents. This means cutting away at opponents, so a lot times teams like Arsenal can't play the way they want to. And it works. Chelsea do this plus they do have talent, which is why they've had such success. Osasuna is the epitome of this style and they're #2 in the league, even though they make the ugliest matches. I've come to love Barcelona because they overcome these shenanigans.

we're going to have more space at the delle api, that could be a disadvantage because we might not be able to play the fast moving football as much

Na. Arsenal love wide open spaces it an attackers dream, if Juve were to have had a chance it was at highbury it is easier to defend there

It was a disaster when Arsenal decided to use the old Wembly for CL matches. They soon dropped that idea like a hot brick.

i dont think that was the size of the pitch though, just the lack omf atmosphere created there, and other teams, felt just at home at wembley as arsenal.

Besides this is a completely different team now except for Henry
