If I was Arteta I’d drop Partey, play timber in the middle with rice and play califiori on the left. When he came on yesterday it improved us defensively and attacking. Timbers energy and industry will help win the midfield battle
I even think Calafiori had moments in the middle he carried that ball tofrom our half to there half a couple of times, our LB look like they would make better CDM than Partey and Rice, I have a feeling Arteta's plan is to have both of them in the field at the same time cause they are quality and cant be wasted on bench
@@shamawet2884not really, but rice and timbers engine against city will help stifle the midfield and they both can carry the ball. I love Thomas but recently he has been wasteful on the ball with poor passing and first touch. City will punish that. Calafiori should be unleashed to nullify their right side and have us front foot defending
happy to see him come in and think big upgrade but that save was smart not great. He went so early that its open to striker waiting. Hecwas there having a cigar before the ball was struck. Great second reaction but its poir penalty and follow up. But think Raya is great for us.
I feel like Arteta's mistake was putting Havertz in the middle, me personally I wouldn't put him there. Leave him up front cause he make things happen 4 the team. Nevertheless,brilliant work from this defense today, and David Raya save is just something else.
I feel like people need to stop saying what Arteta “should have done” or about what “mistakes he made” 😂 he is the manager, he knows what he is doing 🤦♂️
Great save by Raya. Crap attack. Defense is solid, but this attack needs drilling, and changes are needed. Havertz need to play as the 9. Wingers need help from the fullbacks going forward.
You are totally right and I say that I followed the market they made well and that when they bring in all the quality players they bought, (I tell everyone to remember the name Samardtzic who with Gasperini can become a top European player), they will be even stronger. Gasperini is slow in bringing in new players because he wants perfection but they spent around 130-140 million euros in the summer, when he brings in everyone it will be tough.
@ssalihakim9121 that they are an incredibly difficult team to face is a fact, ask Liverpool, who last year took a 0-3 at home, and ask Xabi Alonso who last year didn't lose any match except Atalanta. Then you talk about Martinelli and other Arsenal players, but Arsenal with those players last year were close to winning the Premier League, so I don't think they are that average...
Tactically, cant agree more. But the way I see it, it is still early of the season. Firstly, in my view, I am sure Arteta not focusing on winning but not to lose the game. Currently is all about building a team & finding the ultimate leader in the team on the pitch No doubt they are all hungry for better result, good for dressing room. Arsenal do have a lot of leaders in the team. Love this team progress.
big compliments to Declan Rice for how he analyzes matches, I'm not an Arsenal fan and I hadn't heard of him but Rice gives the idea that when he stops playing he will become a great manager. very intelligent.
It's because Arteta is right 90% of the time and the fans are wrong 90% of the time. The consensus now is that Arsenal are lucky to have Raya. Almost as if he fell out of the sky and replaced Ramsdale and was not actually scouted and purchased. The whole last season was how about he is not a good keeper and he's just fortunate to have a good defense in front of him. Now that the defense is making mistakes and he's saving them the story has changed. Now he's just lucky.
@@Qlickylucky? I dont think so.. raya is actually arteta priority even before hes got promoted from brentford.. he is the keeper arteta wanted since he took charge at arsenal
@@abubakarhharry3380 Frankly, I was not impressed with Arteta's decision to remove Ramsdel as the team's number one. Raya has shown that he is a top-class GK. Arteta was right in this regard. He must continue making bold decisions, especially in our attacking midfield. Odegaard is not coming back soon. It's time to play Nwaneri. He is good enough to play.
I must admit that after Raya's mistake against Porto I was too unhappy but since then he has risen up and proved that he is a world class goalkeeper 🇰🇪
What I love most in DECLEN RICE is alwys thinking about winning and feeling unhappy if the club doesn't win agame .big up david Raya and DECLEN RICE I love your mentality please teach your fellow players yo wake up at the PITCH IN EACH GAME FOR 90+ MINUTES PLEASE
Priceless to have players willing to defend all over the pitch and a keeper that bails them out when they once in a blue moon fails, Ødegård was imo the missing link(-up attack) tonight🐐
Without odegaard we are struggling, shouldn’t had let smith Rowe go 😢 should have used Gabriel Jesus in the middle he could dribble past people and make good passes as well
Arteta is a really good defensive coach . He’s developed the best defence in the league or even Europe good defensive midfield but our attack is lacking.Especially to beat and overtake Manchester City.
Arteta should have played Zenchenko in the midfield with rice and Partey and Kai as 9 we couldn’t move the ball forward it was frustrating but I’m glad we got the point
Jesus isn't ready for the 9 role ahead of havertz. He should start either on the left or right side. Give saka a rest. Martinelli doesn't well defensively but I'm hoping he finds form infront of goal
To me Raya and the defense line were on top of the game.... the rest were having a lot of misplaced passes, uncalculated long ball but when Leandro Trossard came in the ball started to flow Abit well,my observation though.
@MeTube0190 Totally right. At the beginning of the match Atalanta looked scared, (and it's strange because they are never scared), but after the first 20 minutes Atalanta controlled the match perfectly with a lot of collective pressure, with Arsenal coming kept everything within its 30 meters of field. Atalanta did not create many chances because Arsenal defended very well and with 9 players behind the line of the ball, it is not easy to create many chances against a strong team that defends very well (like M. City against Inter). But Atalanta controlled the match, risking 0 apart from a free kick and a throw-in. The result is better for Arsenal than for Atalanta.
@MeTube0190 I think the same thing. Arsenal don't seem at the level needed to do anything important in the Champions League. There are teams that do better in the league, teams that do better in the Champions League. I remember the real Milan, (not this one which after Maldini's ouster took on the worst management in Europe), which between 2001/2002 and 2006/2007 destroyed everyone in Europe by making 3 or 4 finals in 6 years. that team, despite being incredibly strong in the Champions League, was incredible but only won once in the championship.
@MeTube0190 it's weird but it's true. I remember that Milan with 11 phenomena on the pitch like Kakà, Pirlo, Shevchenko, Rui Costa, Seedorf, Nesta, Maldini, Serginho, (people forgot how phenomenal this player was), Crespo, the real Dida etc etc etc, who lost in Italy against teams that have just arrived in Serie A, with teams in last place in the table or similar. Perhaps it was also because the owners were much more interested in the Champions League than in the championship. However, Arsenal will fight for the championship until the end, but City risks winning the Premier League again...
Arsenal's attacking was poor against Atalant, especially in our midfield, and our attack was toothless. However, we didn't lose the games, which is essential. Odegaard is a big miss in this team. Arteta must show trust in Nwaneri; there is no need not to give the lad a chance to play. What does Arteta have nothing to lose if he gives this lad a chance to play? Nwaneri is Odegaard's deputy, and we can agree on that. There is no ideal time to use Nwaneri, I am afraid.
i agree with you, nwaneri's ability on the ball looks good but i think arteta is worried about his pressing ability when we don't the ball and work rate
You couldn’t be more right. I keeping clamoring for this. Give the lad the opportunity. Everyone else on the pitch don’t have any bit of creativity in their locker, only Saka could’ve done something creative but he’s not helped.
Everyone on arsenal's defence and to be fair the gunners are cooking at the back but my word Atalanta defended better in this game just like italians would and I know arsenal fans be moaning about their attack but I think they have an effecient and deadly attack just Atalanta defend in a system they are literally defending when they are attacking and that is mental great game
Raya has performed beyond the lines.
Raya should be a verb and noun in the football dictionary. 'he pulled a Raya on them'. What kind of save was that? 'it was a Raya'🔥🔥
He raya'd the crap out of that pen.
If I was Arteta I’d drop Partey, play timber in the middle with rice and play califiori on the left. When he came on yesterday it improved us defensively and attacking. Timbers energy and industry will help win the midfield battle
why not RICE
@@mandlaveyi3411re read the statement please
I even think Calafiori had moments in the middle he carried that ball tofrom our half to there half a couple of times, our LB look like they would make better CDM than Partey and Rice, I have a feeling Arteta's plan is to have both of them in the field at the same time cause they are quality and cant be wasted on bench
Party is better attacking than Rice

That save makes him World Class.

Currently yeah you’d put him in top 3 Keepers. He’s gotta keep it up for another season or 2 before he gets that title, I think.
@@virupakshawalla5734 please...How many keeper saves that? That's world class save...World Class
That was good performance from away. Thanks to all the team and the coach particularly good save by the goalkeeper.
I feel like Arteta's mistake was putting Havertz in the middle, me personally I wouldn't put him there. Leave him up front cause he make things happen 4 the team. Nevertheless,brilliant work from this defense today, and David Raya save is just something else.
Yes
Yes
Very true
Jesus was poor
Haverts is best up front,he is wasted in midfield
Brilliant Brilliant Brilliant
From Arsenal's midfield to the attack is still an issue so far, falling in love already with Raya now❤
David Raya is from another planet. Superb🎉
I feel like people need to stop saying what Arteta “should have done” or about what “mistakes he made” 😂 he is the manager, he knows what he is doing 🤦♂️
UNTIL HE DOESN'T...
Lol Aubameyang won him the facup... Only relies ON Players talent No Coaching tactics
❤❤ ilove you Raya,..best team... arsenal.
Raya's performance is perfectly beyond
One point away from home, 7 games left 💪🏽💪🏽 we move on💪🏽✍🏽
Great save by Raya. Crap attack. Defense is solid, but this attack needs drilling, and changes are needed. Havertz need to play as the 9. Wingers need help from the fullbacks going forward.
We need someone who could create 1 moment of magic.. Barcelona were trash towards the end of Messi's time there.he could create chances for himself
We need havertz legs in the middle
When i saw the lineup my first thought was that this is just dress rehearsal for saturday. Lol
Players need to control the ball and pass crisply and accurately too 😢. Basics not there. 😮
Havertz and Jesus played so well together
Common! Some fans criticising the team for poor outing is disrespecting Atalanta team. The team is a solid team and the current Europa champion.
Whether atalanta is a solid team or not, partey and martinelli are too average and no where near tittle chasing teams
@@ssalihakim9121 you cannot decide for the coach/manager. Just know that players sometimes have their bad days.

Arteta is a great coach, David Raya keep on surprising !!
Monday would tell a lot too .
That was an incredible save
Why is no one talking about Ramsdelle?
Now Arteta is RIGHT
Raya is top top

World class Raya
You performed beyond measure......Bravo!
Our squad (Arsenal) have been left short. We dont have many attacking options. Our players will burn out again.
Good or top striker needed because two amigo Brasilia can’t be really on
I don't know very well Arsenal but I can say that play against Atalanta it's very difficult for everyone. Gasperini is a monster.
David Raya world class keeper 👏 🙌 ❤❤
Martinelli didn't put away his chance nor did Havertz that makes the difference
Thanks bravo david Raya
All the best Raya
I must admit that after Raya's mistake against Porto I was too unhappy but since then he has risen up and proved that he is a world class goalkeeper 🇰🇪
Now you know how solid Atalanta was
Chill bro, they played in away, wait until Atlanta go to London 😉
@@farhanmehmood6485 There is no home and way matches anymore at this stage

Raya is better than Ramsdale.
Micah best pundit 😂😂

Why didn’t Henry ask Raya a single question, or say a single word to him? 🙈😂
Hes saving energy from his main job..
@@foreignmweezzpuscle8651whats tht?
Micca embarrassing him too much he couldn’t cope lol
My thoughts exactly! 🤷🏽
Dumbfounded, I think...😂😂
Congratulations David Raya❤❤
Raya world class Goalkeeper
David you are right Micheal is the best interviewer I love his jokes ❤❤❤❤
Atalanta are a very good team. It's a shame there is no return leg. 😢 COYG!
If there is return leg am very sure they will surely pay for there sin
Keep the big clips coming!
David Raya is a clean sheet and double saves specialist..
Raya keep it up until you lift EPL and UCL trophies.
Arsenal defence is quite good now.. long from the days of giving free goal for the opponent.. the improvement is tremendous
I am sorry Raya, I was your critique last year😢
Arsenal need a Top Striker to compete in Europe.
Top striker, what did we create?
Arsenal need to get rid of partey and jorginho to replace them with young players and backup for ødegaard and clinical striker to be complete team.
Great show, thanks 😊
This is a good result they are better than us they won a European honours we aint so this is a very good point for not playing all that well
Thanks to Raya and the defence, but our attack was very poor 🎉❤
Rays the best in the world
We lack creativity. Ordegaard missing is our blow😢
I still don't know how Unai Simon is starting ahead of RAYA.. dat guy is rili a Spiderman
Raya our HEROE
Raya cauld save the titanic Jesus what a save that was🎉
Congratulations 🎉🎉🎉🎉 raya
Best inform goalie ❤
Without odegaard we are struggling, shouldn’t had let smith Rowe go 😢 should have used Gabriel Jesus in the middle he could dribble past people and make good passes as well
Arteta is a really good defensive coach . He’s developed the best defence in the league or even Europe good defensive midfield but our attack is lacking.Especially to beat and overtake Manchester City.
Congratulations to Raya and other squad. We need to move on and get better and best.
World class players have wild class moments, Raya is something
Arteta should have played Zenchenko in the midfield with rice and Partey and Kai as 9 we couldn’t move the ball forward it was frustrating but I’m glad we got the point
I agree with you but it's very risky to rely on him since his availability is massively a headache
Zinchenko is injured I heard
Nice save
Jesus isn't ready for the 9 role ahead of havertz. He should start either on the left or right side. Give saka a rest. Martinelli doesn't well defensively but I'm hoping he finds form infront of goal
TT my greatest forward needs to loosen up a bit he’s a little up tight 😂
Imagine arsenal without David Raya
it seems we don't have someone to play in Ordeegad position and Martinelli needs to work on the chances he get
Declan is captain material ❤
For a draw is not bad, Atlanta is a good team, we thank the way they played.
To me Raya and the defense line were on top of the game.... the rest were having a lot of misplaced passes, uncalculated long ball but when Leandro Trossard came in the ball started to flow Abit well,my observation though.
Micah 😂 is something else 😂🎉
Micah is the bess😂😂😂😂😂
What happened to Martinelli?? He is a disaster! The defence and Raya were brilliant! but the attack is shambolic.
Am starting to forget EMI Martinez
Is Zinchenko really injured?
If he's not, he should be in Odegaard's position...
Guy is a creative monster!! ⚽
nice one
the looks from henery
This title had me thinking "who is Henry Carragher?"
U r the best man, Micah . The fans also watch this show because of u mate .
Simply put! Xmas ! Geyonkas!
Why didn't TT say anything to Raya? He didn't even say goodbye or anything. Something ain't right with him lol.
They didn't give him a chance to speak 😅
What is missing is a great striker
Arsenal just need to work on the attack better
he isn't disappointed from the results Atalanta should have won .

They’re a great team that beat Leverkusen last season. With Odegaard we could’ve won
As an Arsenal fan I think we are trapped in the same circle of third or fourth place in the PL table...
sorry to say but are you sure you know what you are saying....??? you guys are just negative.....
I feel Thierry will be a stricter manager.... my thought though 😮
