    I think people forget how much City actually were before this match to Arsenal, Rodri, De Bruyne,Haaland, all provoking either the fans, the players and the coach, now that City is getting that back from Arsenal, they can't take it and people don't like it? Where was this energy when City did this? There is no taking it too far, City are a fantastic team and have on many occasions beaten us and for us to thoroughly beat them as we did, is worth celebrating over and over again, for the two titles they won ahead of us, for all the beatings and for all the provocation, must Arsenal have meekly walked down the tunnel? I dont care who you are, if you beat the reigning champions 5-1 you celebrate like an absolute madman and nobody will tell me different

    the thing about havertz is if you oook at what halaand is criticized for off the ball that is exactly what havertz does offer. Off the ball and link up wise havertz is one of the best but misses that big chance that halaand does offer.

      Indeed. We are a team that relies on multiple scorers so the issue isn't really Havertz, it's that Martinelli, Odegaard, Rice etc haven't been scoring. With what Havertz does, even if we had got a striker they would not have started because Havertz is so important in the press and tracking back. I said at the beginning of the season he'd score 20 goals, he'll exceed that, but without Saka we need 10+ from others.

    To say that Mikel Arteta has regressed this season is totally unfair. Arne Slot joined a team with 4 world-class players, Salah, Alisson, VVD, and TAA. Players who have already won the league and the Champions League.
    In contrast, Arteta is navigating his first managerial role and initially inherited a team that was underperforming but has since consistently overachieved under his guidance. What Arteta needs now is not a second-choice player like Trossard or Vieira, but a top-tier talent who can walk straight into the starting eleven-someone like Isak or Gyökeres. If such players aren’t available, then it makes little sense to invest in a second-string player who will consume the budget without significantly enhancing the team.
    Also to say Arsenal doesn't have a heritage in the Champions League is lazy. Arsenal has played a final and was consistently part of the tournament for 17 straight years, be it not always competing. The teams that won it for the first time by that logic should never have won it.

    I think it's strange how all the focus has been on Havertz and the CF position when it's been obvious for more than1.5 year that the team is so heavily tilted to the right. Havertz is doing all of these things so well, the only thing missing is clinical finishing. But you dont necessarily need a 30 goals/season CF to be successful, as both Liverpool and City have shown over the years with Firmino and Foden/Gondegan playing centrally.
    I think a LW who can perform (close) to the levels of Saka would bring so much more to the team than a central goalscorer, and unfortunately Martinelli just havent been able to reproduce his 22/23 level. A Nico Williams type would not only make the left side much more dangerous it would also force oppositions to ease up on Saka (who has 2-3 players on him basically every match), turning Arsenal's attack into a new Mane-Firmino-Salah incarnation.

Both Nwaneri and Skelly have bright futures ahead, and within the next few seasons they'll save Arsenal the trouble of having to buy more players in those positions.

However the board not backing Arteta and supporting the squad the last two transfer windows is criminal and pretty much guarantees we can't catch Liverpool. It was going to be tough regardless but one striker who is not a natural goalscorer and a lack of depth/ quality on the wings, especially without Saka. They have really let Arsenal down.

    Respectfully, it does sound odd to hear podcasters wax eloquent about how hard it is for an academy kid to rise up through the ranks and how it’s a special feel-good story, as though internationals who come up in what are often much harder circumstances - without the infrastructure opportunity afforded to some of these academy graduates, aren’t every bit as awe inspiring. I don’t see how foreign players earning a spot in a Prem team is somehow a reflection of “the big bad corporate structure.” I understand how it’s relatable to see someone from your hometown play at the highest level, but it may have been most respectful to just have left it at that.

A couple of seasons ago I saw Wolves have a solid 10 points taken off them through officials making mistake after mistake despite VAR being there to make amends. Arsenal are on course to top that, likely already at 8 points stripped now. The best thing that happened to Liverpool was the David Coote videos breaking.

    This was a good performance, and Arsenal have been generally good recently. But this is not a turning point, we learned nothing new. Man City right now is a perfect opponent for them, they gift chances and goals to every single opponent, and Arsenal are very strong defensively. They have had tougher tests presently, and they will have tougher tests coming up. They will be strong for the rest of the season, but not strong enough to rack up the wins Man City recent years style. And they is what they need to have a chance of catching Liverpool because of the nine point deficit.
    This game also shows that there is too much emotion and frustration in this team and the manager. The us against the world strategy worked for Jose Mourinho, but that guy had a cool head behind all of the acted emotion. The current Arsenal kind of emotion will have as much negative impact as it will positive.

      He is literally already flourishing way ahead of schedule with odegaard also in the team. He's obviously in the right place, I mean how dumb can you fucking get.

      @@alton19769 i’m dead ass, for his own career he will accelerate much faster if he goes somewhere else that will let him start immediately like Dortmund.
      This guy is a generational talent, but under Arteta he will end up like Palmer at City

      idk, kind of reminds me of foden with city. everybody said foden needed to leave, and when he signed a contract a few years ago, everybody said he was destined to ride the bench forever due to the likes of de bruyne, gundogan, rodri, etc etc. but then last season he was premier league player of the year. i think arteta can find space to work him in, especially because he can cover for both saka and odegaard
