Arsenal Formation 2012

Arsenal Football Formation

Creation DateNovember 11, 2012

Lineup (4-4-2)

Olivier Giroud · Adrian/Walcott · Lukas Podolski · Santi Cazorla · Wilshere/Ramsey · Diaby/Arteta · Carl Jenkinson · Kieran Gibbs · Per Mertesacker · Laurent Koscienly · Wojciech Szczesny

This is the best formation for Arsenal with all players available. Obviously, for this formation Gibbs and Diaby need to return and we need to buy Adrian in January. It is a complex 4-4-2. Here you can see that I have not included Vermaelan the Arsenal Captain and rightly so. To be honest i wanted Per and Kos as center backs since the start of the season. I was proved right time and time again with Vermaelan's poor performances. Also htis formation includes a second striker in Theo or Adrian. Giroud needs a feeder and both these players can do so. They are also good in the wings and hence Cazorla and the second striker can change positions numerous times during the match.
