From The Athletic article -

Gyokeres is not a player who likes to drop back into midfield, his strength lies in quick runs behind, running between the fullback and centerback. This means Arsenal need to be more direct and vertical.

Is this team even capable of playing direct? Every attack that goes through Odegaard never makes it into the final third of the opp. team. Saka has to deal with two defenders marking him in every game and Martinelli recycles the ball three times out of five.

Ode and Nelli catching so much flak these days

why are loserpool ready to spill 140m for a striker when they've already bought one this very window and are in dire need of backup elsewhere?

I'm gonna cry bros

Jesus is ALSO going on loan - none of these exits will help with PSR.

So Liverpool are getting Isak. How do we deal with it?

Am I the only one who thinks Saka's play on the wing has got predictable these days?

He can't go on a mazy dribble without getting fouled. Cuts outside and sends a cross or a cutback that is obviously blocked.

Doesn't beat defenders 1v1 to cut inside, mostly because he's rarely left to just one defender.

So worried for Max now.

Not only is it important to keep his development on the right track, but his ankles are also going to be targeted by orcish teams like the one we just met.

debut goal against yanited, hattrick against brighton who says no?

 

£55m + 8.6m of the King's finest.

 

These lot are so dependent on instant gratification that their tantrums after an embarrassing defeat are a sight to behold.

All the salty tears shed on Myles' celebration and the whole "This is what Haaland meant btw" meme have all originated in the past couple of days.

Bernardo Silva who fouled and kicked Trossard when he was down really is the embodiment of this whole feeling of entitlement, which also reminds me of Rodri's statement after the Away fixture in which he said we were only playing for a draw. They just act so hurt when an unlikely opposition sounds the bell signaling the end of their dominance.

Now they're mocking us after the Newcastle defeat - proper childish behaviour if I'm honest.

When all else fails, they revert back to trophy logic. Because it's dumb, lacks nuance and breaks down the whole "debate" to a numbers game.

 

5 points dropped against Fulham.

6 points dropped against Villa.

Only have ourselves to blame 👍
