Monday Morning Quarterback: Soft underbelly undermines Wenger’s attacking refit

Daniel Storey breaks down the weekend’s big talking points...

New attack, but same old Arsenal

You can hardly blame Arsene Wenger for trying to turn Arsenal into a counter-attacking team. He now has the perfect ingredients for that attacking strategy: a wonderful creator in Mesut Ozil, central midfielders desperate to join the attack in Aaron Ramsey and Jack Wilshere and two attackers who were used to playing in such a style at a previous club in Henrikh Mkhitaryan and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang. Against Everton, they were lightning quick and ruthless when possession was turned over.
