It might be old to some people, but it's legit new to Arsenal fans - I don't think we've ended a game playing the same formation we started with. We play about 2-3 formations a match depending on if we go up or down a goal.

The Arsenal
yup i didn't even know it was possible for arsenal to make real tactical changes. what passed for tactical changes was putting per mertesacker at striker and just pumping balls forward. or put on every striker that was on the bench and have 4 of them on the pitch. that use to work sometimes, but it wasn't a strategy, just winging it. i remember the first visit to the emirates by man u where we ended the game with thierry, adebayor, van persie and julio baptista. pure chaos, but it worked. i can see why wenger didn't win in europe and emery has, tactics matter.
