BR: All of the top EPL teams and the best teams in the world can boast that they are strong in defense. While Arsenal may play a beautiful attacking game, the lack of support in defense is often the cause of Arsenal's losses. Arsenal LB Gael Clichy hopes that they can take what they saw from Manchester United at their recent tie at Old Trafford to improve upon their defense.

Koscielny shows promise, but Clichy is no better than Gibbs to be honest. He absolutely struggles with one-on-ones with players of any real skill. Although to be fair, it's been a while since his last real howler.

Clichy is too confident on the ball for a full back when defending.

Yeah Lahm would be great.
