It's a :troll: piece. I find it weird that he didn't take into account what happened when Sanchez went on the field or when Ozil was moved into his proper spot after the injuries occurred. Wenger did let him drift centrally a lot in the first half but look what happened in the 2nd:

I do think that the bit about not having (needing?) physically imposing/bossy players is an interesting point . The team seems to win a decent amount of duels for the most part (quick google says 51% this season), so I don't know how true it is. On one hand they got pushed around a lot by Dortmund, on the other hand City who appear to have some big strong guys didn't seem to manhandle them much at all.

He's not trolling. It's just bad observations and poor journalism.

Kompany Smh. Totti running in slow motion. Hart and Dimechelis get scapegoated for kompanys mistakes too much.
