If Lampard gets sacked, imagine he goes to Celtic to rehab his career like Brendan Rodgers did?

Stevie G vs Fat Frank :wow:

I think Arsenal fans too hung up on the whole crossing thing tbh. :hubie:

There isn't anything wrong with crosses. Problem being it's the connotation you need to have a big target man for that tactic to work, when its really the movement of the players in the box. Liverpool and Man City put in the most crosses last season and Top 5 for 18/19. Liverpool are also 4th for this season along with Leeds (1st) and Villa (3rd) and none of those teams have a Andy Carroll types playing up front for them either.

I agree with you don't get me wrong. But that's not Auba's game either. Play him ball to feet and let him get in behind a defender. Imagine Auba with a KDB or Firminho.
