Pace effort dedication, how often is Hector the last man in defence despite us having 5 players further back than him when the ball is lost?
Xhaka I can see very little in but why Belerin gets such a tough time I don't understand, his crossing needs improving but if that was bang on would we still have him?

Whatever happened to not reading too much into preseason Matches?

Q, i have never rated him, the pre season games just reinforce my belief. The guy is a fraud.

Q, pre season games are about fitness only. It doesn't make you a better or worse player. I have opinions on players but the results and performance of the team is virtually irrelevant. The results are pretty meaningless.

Bellerin needs more defensive coaching. It is very early days under Emery and Bellerin will clearly benefit from training alongside Lichtsteiner.
Defensively the team has a lot to learn, but we haven't conceded more than one goal a game in pre-season and haven't suffered a single defeat, except one on penalties.
We still have Monreal to return and Torreira, who will provide better cover.

Pre season games mean nothing, I have a feeling that Dick will be our man to get the best from these players and will have a plan B in games unlike mr W had. Am excited for the season to start now.

337 - I agree with you. Emery has only had a matter of weeks or in some cases days to work with the players. I didn't see last night's match, but what worried me was that we conceded from a corner, which I did see on Sky and apparently we are again employing a high press. With relatively slow central defenders in Sokratis and Mustafi, this is suicidal. Saying that, we have conceded very few goals in pre-season matches. Looking forward to our first league match, although we must be patient whilst Emery while he makes the changes and the new players settle in.

Dick might well not be showing his hand and saving his A game plan for City when there is points at stake.
I doubt very much we will be the one trick pony's of past seasons from now on.

I don't really rate Bellerin that much either, apart from decent pace he does not offer much his delivery of crosses is pretty woeful and is often caught in bad positons defensivly. Monreal on the other side is a much better defender. I would personally give Lichtsteiner the nod ahead of Bellerin to be more solid at the back. let's give Emery a chance though to stamp his authority and ways on the team and hoepfully we will improve as whole team on the defensive front, we need to to have a chance of getting back into top 4.

Ryan, i believe while we have xhaka, bellerin and mustaffi in our team we will leak goals. The first two names are awfull at defending and mustaffi is just waiting for a mistake. I do believe mustaffi has ability at defending but he needs to concentrate better, the other two are just liabilities.
