I've notice teams play extremely defensive against Arsenal when compare to Liverpool, Chelsea, Manchester City and Newcastle. It's almost like they deliberately do not want Arsenal to score goals but will gladly play evenly and more open against everybody else.
That's the fact. Most EPL teams are defensive minded against Arsenal. The best thing to do is to find a way to score, then control the game. That being said, Arsenal needs a striker
The thing is thinking about 8s and a 10 is not how Arteta is working. Against low blocks he has his 8s and wide forwards interchanging between each other, like what we did in 2022/3. Our defence in transition was rubbish when Saliba got injured that season, now our defence can deal with injuries because we control the game. Players like Timber and MLS are so good at popping up in the middle of the field and progressing the ball, Lewis-Skelly I can't believe how good he has been so quickly. Even when we're not having our best season and have important injuries, we still are within striking distance. We're a proper team now, when not having our best of luck, were still making teams worry not just hoping other teams fall over
1. Jesus is still on good form, and Havertz got the goal - but we still need a striker 2. Not creative enough off the wing - considering we like to play through there a lot. And Martinelli is actually looking better on the right. But a new winger is ESSENTIAL. 3. Skelly is the real deal. Rapidly becoming one of our most consistent players. Would like to see him in CM once we sort out LB. Think we need another LB tho since Tierney is 100% going, Kiwior is NOT a LB and Zinny isn’t being trusted. Maybe Skelly will be that roaming LB Arteta wants? Idk we will see but I don’t think so. 4. Love Odegaard but I want to see him on the LCM position. Merino looked decent when he came on, while taking the ball in and around the box. With Rice behind them - maybe that’s the solution. 5. We won the game. That’s all that matters. And we did have a couple of very good chances. Gabriel scores that almost open goal, and Jesus isn’t offside - it’s 3-0 and everyone says it’s a great game and did well. But since it was only 1-0 everyone looks at negatives and has a meltdown. 6. Bonus thing we learned (/knew) - Timber is the real deal. Seriously. I don’t say it lightly, he could very soon become the best RB itw. He’s showing it consistently that he’s unbelievable rounded and solid.
Yeah-yeah old song. Striker like Haaland like Toney like Watkins all of which can both strike a ball but can suck ass as well. We do need some new option like Semenyo, right, but to say our guys are worse in finding ball inside the box than anybody is false. Havertz only scored less than Haaland and Salah.
Very true we look like we dont have any idea how to attack and no player wants to take on the responsibility of being creative or running with the ball so they pass it to play safe
There was a moment in the game where the players were searching for a forward pass and the camera was behind Arteta and Arteta demanded they passed backwards, so they did. People wanting a new striker are gonna be disappointed when the manager doesn't allow the ball up to him.
Dude you saw a split second of Arteta's managing, it may have actually been the best pass at that moment, not every ball should be out into the box. Stop pretending like you understand how he coaches, and have some faith in the man who got us this far. Also, you're a dumbass if you think the team will play exactly the same with a new striker.
that makes no sense. The plan was to keep position with the lack of Saka. Wether a striker comes or not, Arsenal are unpredictable and have players who can score like Jesus,
Ohhhh. So in a 90 minute game the manager is seen asking the team to pass backward at one point during the match. Are we also going to ignore when he was demanding Odegaard to pass it forward through to Havertz on the left side and we could hear him shouting it. So which is it then?😂😂. Poor analysis from you man
Im watching Kai since his days at Leverkusen. He is not a natural striker. Dont get me wrong the boy is skilled. I love seeing him play. His playstyle is like Thomas Muller. Shadow Striker. False 9. He creates place for others primarly, but if he finds himself in a box, he can finish it. Thats why Chelsea bought him. He thrives behind the striker.
The way you guys analyse these games sometimes, if the players listen to you, it will be demoralising. We hear too often that great teams find a way to win even when they aren't playing well. Now we won, and we are too slow to pass out of the back? Liverpool is Liverpool. They have been hurt before and can be hurt again. We just need to be ourselves and we will be fine.
@@deeray4637Pls remind them we don’t have any major trophy yet. Until we win something, I won’t be impressed by anything. We need to stop giving lousy excuses
Here's my take, take it as you like. But in a 4-2-3-1 system. We buy a powerful forward, and an inside forward to match our Saka talent on the left. Then have saka on the right. Play havertz as cam but almost in a shadow striker kind of way. Then have Rice as our defenisve mid with Odegaard next to him but in a more deepline playmaker role. Obviously keep Raya, Saliba, and Gabriel as they are. Then have our full backs play more like wing backs. We have plenty of options in those positions so have them making runs, we have subs for when they tire. This lets us get the best out of our players, gives us plenty of crosses into the box as we know we're good with headers, without limiting our forwards abilities to cut inside and shoot. We also get the #9 we've all been wanting, with Havertz lurking in support to strike when the opportunities fall. Its a big switch from our current defensive setup, but if teams are just gonna play fully defensive against us anyways, lets show them why they should be scared of us having the ball. Something like a Leao and Sesko for example, would be the only 2 roles we'd need in the transfer market
Bhavss…Partey isnt a defensive midfield. He’s a deep lying progressive passer. And we look waaaaaay better offensively with him rather than Rice at the base of our midfield.
People don't give him his deserved credit. Arteta's obsession with accommodating havertz and Rice in the squad all the time is the undoing of the team.
@@adelusimayowa3011 Agree. Rice (and our left winger) looks so much better with Zinchenko playing and fully inverting. It leaves spaces on the left for Rice’s athleticism (offensively and defensively) and ball carrying/driving skills to shine. When he’s the six the whole team slows down, and when he plays the hybrid 6/left 8 double pivot it becomes so much easier for teams to defend against us because everything comes down our right as Ødegaard wants to play in that pocket (rightly so, as he is an 8, not a 10) and Rice isn’t high enough.
While Timber is easier on the eye (aesthetic bias), you can see why Ben White is so great. Timber is an extra midfielder (interia, semi-flank operator) but he doesn’t provide width and push wide forward inside whatsoever
5 things i learnrd: 1. Declan gives more security as no.6, exactly what is needed in that position. 2. Jesus offers more technically compared to all our forwards. Very sleek and tricky in the box. 3. Skelly is becoming a beast, ' made in the lab" 4. We didn't miss Saka 5. We want to see Neto play, he won't get a medal if Arsenal wins the epl if he doesn't play.
We solve our creativity by not playing Rice as our DM. We have not scored more than one goal when he’s played there. The only game we scored 2 goals, we drew it. Pple dont understand the importance of a good DM to the attack. When Partey plays, we create more chances.
Yes @Bhavss14 loving how you dropped the comment about our full backs 💯 'On one side we've got the firing Jurrien Timber 🔥🔥and on the other Timber 2.0 💣💥' Couldn't have put it better myself 👏🏾 Loving your content. Keep up the good work and happy new year👊🏾 #number1gotoforeverythingArsenal
I really feel for Saka. He's been a rock for Arsenal and England. I hope he heals well and that we are in the mix for him to come back and win the Prem.
Guys for me I think its good to have Calafiori on the bench cause his knee problems worry me and he can save him for big games or games where we don't want to conceade or if Gabi gets injured he steps up
Martinelli was supposed to be to us what Luis Diaz is to Liverpool now. Need to figure out quickly if his ability can be raised and I hope Arteta delivers on his ruthless streak and get us another attacker. We upgraded ramsdale with Raya, we have to continue with that.
I just dont get our tactics. We went from tearing teams apart in the xhaka season, failed to upgrade him and play like shite now. All we needed was a bit of a tweak, instead we play like stoke now
Talking absolute rubbish. When do stoke get 60-70% possession and dominate 95% of their games. I’ll give you a few hours to check….. Never!!! Stop with the hyperbole and understand that the only reason we struggle to win convincingly is because our speed and pattern of play allows the opposition to set up their defence into a low block unless we catch them on the transition, which happens rarely. 1-2 additional personnel in the front five should improve more of our outcomes (converting losses or draws to wins).
@@ladsetti9205tbf, we used to catch teams on the transition way more 2 years ago. I think the issue is that we're playing Martinelli out too wide and not letting him drift centrally to help our counter. Look at his heatmaps, he's progressively drifting in centrally less and less each season. Now, I do think he's a half step slower after the injuries (still fast, but he's just not quite getting the separation he used to get), but it's enough speed that to split the CBs, but it's not quite fast enough to create a full body length of separation between the RBs. To me, if Arteta refuses to let Martinelli drift centrally, he needs to sell him and get a winger that is more well suited for the out wide role. Also, Trossard needs to except he just doesn't have the tools to start in the PL on a title competing side. He's a great super sub because he's clinical, but he lacks pace to beat fresh legs and his passing is mediocre. He should accept being the 12th man for this team and look at himself as the football version to what Manu Ginobli was for the San Antonio Spurs. Also, football really should create a 12th man of the year award for each league.
5-4-1 is what we have to learn to break down! Yeah! It’s tough! This is where Arteta has to show his prowess as a manager! There is a way but I’m no tactician so haven’t got a clue! What I do know and see is that below the 6 all teams want the point which feels like a win to them! Opinions from fans are just that! They ALL feel they know more than the manager! He sees these players every day! Knows what he’s got and works on the nuances that we could NEVER know! 5 years on with the Boss and we find ourselves once again 2nd for the first half of the season in ALL cup competitions! Not to shabby! Keep the faith!
I believe that this time should be utilized to request Calafiori to lure Frederico Chiesa to Arsenal. I STRONGLY believe he's not quite in at Liverpool, His situation there is similar to that of a one Dani Olmo, in but not quite in, as he is not attached to the Reds as a player seeing that he has not had joy to his start at the club, so Ricci can use his Italian comradery to tell him how much of an asset he will be at N4, than at Meyerside, where he's playing second-third fiddle to Salah. Arsenal could sign him for double his price@ 20-26 mil. imagine if we have them both now and then in the summer sign those ever-elusive marquee strikers (in Isak/Gyo/ or even both), and have Saka back what a great team we'll have going to the next Club World Cup
The actual points tally should be 41 for LiVARpool and 39 for us, as we got cheated in that game against LiVARpool due to corrupted refs don't forget this please, because it's all part of the context of winning the PL. Also the cheating the refs did us dirty against City and Brighton sending our players off for dubious decisions over kicking the ball away. Which no other teams have been done for throughout the season so far. Which also affected our 4 games overall due to suspensions for no real reason. Imagine if that happened to LiVARpool they would want those games replayed and they would've gone on about it forever, so would the media. But because it's Arsenal for them it's fine just don't bother mentioning it by the media because it won't suit their agenda against us. Bunch pathetic useless dishonest mugs.
Nothing but excuses and refusal to look internally. Stop blaming refs and look at the manager who has completely neglected the attack, and look at the slow, boring, predictable style of play, which is why we are so far behind Liverpool.
Yes we had red cards Yes there were games we should have won But in the Liverpool game, Arsenal had the chance to win But we blew our chances away Same against Newcastle and Bournemouth, we allowed them to bully us And make our team more vulnerable Our biggest problem is We are too predictable in the game. Teams know Arsenal is slow in the build up So it's up to us to capitalise and smash teams
The thing we actually scored a legitimate goal to win 3-2 against LiVARpool and the ref Anthony Taylor decided to blow the whistle for no reason. Plus LiVARpool konate has been getting away with some ridiculous tackles that should have ben given as red card to him and penalties to the opposition team. If that was us in sure they would have done that the refs. Look at yesterday Saliba I think got wrestled to the for in the box and the ref and VAR didn't want to give anything to us. That's LiVARpool they would've got the penalty 100%. These things change the games. Just like each game LiVARpool got penalties in they won those when they were losing or drawing, just the refs and VAR giving them what they can and need
@@AMV-Football The difference between our team and Liverpool is Liverpool is actually playing to win games And sadly, we not. We don't have that mentality to win every game Cause we play the same Playing from the back Playing and focusing on the right side of attack Instead of going with the flow And playing as a team to win games That Leicester game is a great example Salah wasn't the only one who scored, their midfield scored as well And Gakpo scored Maybe, just maybe If we actually take our chances And be more brave and decisive, we'd be top of the table But we keep relying on Saka way too often And teams know, we're gonna play slow methodical and that they defend deep against us Knowing we need to step up our game a bit more We should be looking at our team improving And being a dominant team on all fronts.
Finally you agree that Odegaard is a no8! This is why I’ve said we need to buy Musiala or Wirtz. And then find a way to play Ethan with Odegaard, Rice behind them. But that requires aid to have to functionally effective wings; this will drag numbers out of the zone 14. That’s what we are not doing effectively. Can you imagine Ipswich dedicated ONE player to mark and deal with Martinelli the entire game, so many times! And Martinelli was just out of it 😢
No, not that he is anti-counter attacking football, but he is trying to minimize our defensive risks. Take a look at Liverpool they concede almost every game, and it is mainly as a result of possession turn-overs in the opponents final 3rd and being hit on the counter... Take a look at that Leicester goal and other missed chances, had they been more clinical Liverpool would have at least conceded a minimum of 3 goals, worse of all in the first half. So there is a reason why we have the best defense, it is simply based on us not opening up space during build up and keeping possession slow and tidy... So we cant have it both, so either we adopt Liverpool's counter-attacking fast pace build up system and lose our lose our defensive solidity, or we can keep our system and remain secure at the back, especially from quick attacking counter attack situations.
Compeltely agree about trying Odegaard on the left and probably most fans would too. We could do something in the market for another creative midfielder like Guler so we don’t only depend on Nwaneri. Also, I do think that bringing in a strong and tall striker would really help us with Havertz in this #10 role. Like it or not, Arteta’s way of breaking down low blocks seems to be primarily to throw lots of crosses into the box over and over. Having someone like an Osimhen alongside Kai in the box would significantly increase their success rate.
Arsenal priblen is not lack of instruction to drive the ball. It is the opposite. They're instructed not to drive with the ball. REMOVE THE SHACKLES. LET THE PLAYERS PLAY.
We need Gyökeres or Isak, these two are prolific strikers that we help our seasons. We need a backup for Saka, if not, Saka will be getting injured more. We need Kudus, Lookman or Nico Williams.
The Arsenal online fans I think have a a wish to see this club be like Spurs..they now seem to to have all the ideas for Arsenal, like they were playing fifa
Jesus should have been the one dropping deep instead of Havertz. Every time Havertz drops to midfield, I get anxiety. He's prone to losing the ball in those areas. Havertz' height would've been more of a threat as well.
I think Cunha would be an outstanding signing....but any potential deal for him MUST be done in January....just as with any other Star signing - if we hope to win anything this season!! We are still 1 creative midfielder; Stellar striker, and left winger away from being good enough to win either The Premier League or Champions League!! 😙😙
The players we need for this transfer window: Isak Osimhen Gyokeres Lookman Cunha Marmoush Zubimendi Olmo Mbeumo Kudus. We need a striker and a left winger and a backup for Saka that can be reliable until March. when he comes back
I think Arsenal need to launch a big bid for Kudos, he would struggle as initially he’ll be covering the right side but he is world class potentially. I’d also love Lookman but I don’t think he’d want to leave now.
Unfortunately arsenal aren't used to spending that much money in Jan. Meanwhile man city have already displayed a huge interest towards Kudos , ready to invest big in him and will most likely grab him in Jan
Martinelli struggles to perform effectively on the left, so why would he be any better on the right in Saka's absence? While I understand some believe this system doesn’t suit him-and I agree that his primary strength is running in behind defenders-there are clear limitations to his game. At his age, he struggles to dribble past most right-backs in the league, exposing some fundamental issues in his overall gameplay that have hindered his development. For instance, he often plays with his head down, making his crosses more about hitting general areas rather than accurately targeting teammates in the box. His link-up play is practically nonexistent, his dribbling and one-on-one ability lack effectiveness, and he doesn't exhibit the physicality or aggression needed at this level. On the defensive side, his recovery speed is a notable asset, which is likely why Arteta continues to trust him. However, these shortcomings highlight why he remains a work in progress rather than a fully developed, versatile attacker.
AFC does not need any new players if they so wished . All thry need to do is to move Lewis from left full back to a left winger or wing back as have been done with Bukayo, McNeil, Gareth Bale. We already have more thsn enough cover at left back but currently play buffoons at left wing vis Martinelli, Trausard etc
Here is what we learned mate... We will be out of FA Cup, title race and Cabarao cup in the next 6 weeks unless we blow 100m on that striker or LW we have been waiting to replace Auba! 100% we dropping points against Brentford and Brighton 150%.... I'm coming back here after we have done so.... Last night performance was horrific 💯💯
Someone who actually has some knowledge, been saying Cunha for a while now, and I’m getting slaughtered for it, he’s gonna go for a big six time and I hope it’s us.
unless Liverpool get a salah or van Dijk injury were not winning this league or going on a run like last season i just don't believe with this squad unless we got a top forward striker
Let's go for Kudus or Lookman, maybe Rashford if Arteta believes in him and wages are ok...someone strong as striker, someone like Osimhen or Gyokeres...and I would go for Pogba, 1 year contract and let's see what happen
We need to buy atleast 2 attackers in january or 1 and recall vieira. idk if ffp will allow it but its required if we are serious about winning anything this season. cunha alone wont be enough. No exaggeration to say this jan transfer window will decide our season and possibly the entire future direction of our club for the next 5+ years.
One day we'll have time to talk about Declan Rice... & How much football (as a midfielder) is not about just running around but intelligence in creative play
Truth said, it does not look like Arsenal is signing any player in January. May be a loan,and it is only just may be. Arteta was clear enough. He is prepared to look for answers internally. This is just to say buying is not always the answer.
Arsenal have ended the year 2024 scoring the most goals but fans are still screaming we need a stricker. Football can be strange sometimes. I actaully dont get it!
What did YOU learn from the game? 👀
MLS is gonna be beast
😢 Attack is death
That Arsenal needs to be more ruthless

Because they know it always works against Arsenal but not Liverpool and to a lesser extent, Chelsea.
We are too pedestrian and predictable!!!

@Bhavss14 first time I see a, not-so-good, match (which we won) that was, basically, a worry for the lads.
Martinelli was supposed to be to us what Luis Diaz is to Liverpool now. Need to figure out quickly if his ability can be raised and I hope Arteta delivers on his ruthless streak and get us another attacker. We upgraded ramsdale with Raya, we have to continue with that.
I just dont get our tactics. We went from tearing teams apart in the xhaka season, failed to upgrade him and play like shite now. All we needed was a bit of a tweak, instead we play like stoke now
Talking absolute rubbish. When do stoke get 60-70% possession and dominate 95% of their games. I’ll give you a few hours to check….. Never!!! Stop with the hyperbole and understand that the only reason we struggle to win convincingly is because our speed and pattern of play allows the opposition to set up their defence into a low block unless we catch them on the transition, which happens rarely. 1-2 additional personnel in the front five should improve more of our outcomes (converting losses or draws to wins).
I just think Arteta is very stubborn, I don’t know why he don’t trust Ethan…
@@ladsetti9205tbf, we used to catch teams on the transition way more 2 years ago.
I think the issue is that we're playing Martinelli out too wide and not letting him drift centrally to help our counter. Look at his heatmaps, he's progressively drifting in centrally less and less each season. Now, I do think he's a half step slower after the injuries (still fast, but he's just not quite getting the separation he used to get), but it's enough speed that to split the CBs, but it's not quite fast enough to create a full body length of separation between the RBs.
To me, if Arteta refuses to let Martinelli drift centrally, he needs to sell him and get a winger that is more well suited for the out wide role.
Also, Trossard needs to except he just doesn't have the tools to start in the PL on a title competing side. He's a great super sub because he's clinical, but he lacks pace to beat fresh legs and his passing is mediocre.
He should accept being the 12th man for this team and look at himself as the football version to what Manu Ginobli was for the San Antonio Spurs.
Also, football really should create a 12th man of the year award for each league.
watching Odegaard remember he can dribble was funny ngl
Waiting since for this 5 thing we learnt ❤🎉❤
5-4-1 is what we have to learn to break down! Yeah! It’s tough! This is where Arteta has to show his prowess as a manager! There is a way but I’m no tactician so haven’t got a clue! What I do know and see is that below the 6 all teams want the point which feels like a win to them!
Opinions from fans are just that! They ALL feel they know more than the manager! He sees these players every day! Knows what he’s got and works on the nuances that we could NEVER know!
5 years on with the Boss and we find ourselves once again 2nd for the first half of the season in ALL cup competitions! Not to shabby!
Keep the faith!
We literally back to where we used to be in 2020, more defenders than attacking players in the squad
And winning nothing😅
Nice updates bhavss, what we need is a statement signing like Isak, Vlahovic and Gyokeres
Vlahovic will never join us so move on
I don't remember David Silva looking like that ibr... 5:56
Haahahahahah
Lol
I believe that this time should be utilized to request Calafiori to lure Frederico Chiesa to Arsenal. I STRONGLY believe he's not quite in at Liverpool, His situation there is similar to that of a one Dani Olmo, in but not quite in, as he is not attached to the Reds as a player seeing that he has not had joy to his start at the club, so Ricci can use his Italian comradery to tell him how much of an asset he will be at N4, than at Meyerside, where he's playing second-third fiddle to Salah. Arsenal could sign him for double his price@ 20-26 mil. imagine if we have them both now and then in the summer sign those ever-elusive marquee strikers (in Isak/Gyo/ or even both), and have Saka back what a great team we'll have going to the next Club World Cup
The actual points tally should be 41 for LiVARpool and 39 for us, as we got cheated in that game against LiVARpool due to corrupted refs don't forget this please, because it's all part of the context of winning the PL. Also the cheating the refs did us dirty against City and Brighton sending our players off for dubious decisions over kicking the ball away. Which no other teams have been done for throughout the season so far. Which also affected our 4 games overall due to suspensions for no real reason. Imagine if that happened to LiVARpool they would want those games replayed and they would've gone on about it forever, so would the media. But because it's Arsenal for them it's fine just don't bother mentioning it by the media because it won't suit their agenda against us. Bunch pathetic useless dishonest mugs.
Nothing but excuses and refusal to look internally. Stop blaming refs and look at the manager who has completely neglected the attack, and look at the slow, boring, predictable style of play, which is why we are so far behind Liverpool.
Yes we had red cards
Yes there were games we should have won
But in the Liverpool game, Arsenal had the chance to win
But we blew our chances away
Same against Newcastle and Bournemouth, we allowed them to bully us
And make our team more vulnerable
Our biggest problem is
We are too predictable in the game. Teams know Arsenal is slow in the build up
So it's up to us to capitalise and smash teams
The thing we actually scored a legitimate goal to win 3-2 against LiVARpool and the ref Anthony Taylor decided to blow the whistle for no reason. Plus LiVARpool konate has been getting away with some ridiculous tackles that should have ben given as red card to him and penalties to the opposition team. If that was us in sure they would have done that the refs. Look at yesterday Saliba I think got wrestled to the for in the box and the ref and VAR didn't want to give anything to us. That's LiVARpool they would've got the penalty 100%. These things change the games. Just like each game LiVARpool got penalties in they won those when they were losing or drawing, just the refs and VAR giving them what they can and need
@@AMV-Football The difference between our team and Liverpool is
Liverpool is actually playing to win games
And sadly, we not.
We don't have that mentality to win every game
Cause we play the same
Playing from the back
Playing and focusing on the right side of attack
Instead of going with the flow
And playing as a team to win games
That Leicester game is a great example
Salah wasn't the only one who scored, their midfield scored as well
And Gakpo scored
Maybe, just maybe
If we actually take our chances
And be more brave and decisive, we'd be top of the table
But we keep relying on Saka way too often
And teams know, we're gonna play slow methodical and that they defend deep against us
Knowing we need to step up our game a bit more
We should be looking at our team improving
And being a dominant team on all fronts.
The "dubious" sending offs" that your small club failed to appeal 😅
Excuses FC Since 2004
Finally you agree that Odegaard is a no8!
This is why I’ve said we need to buy Musiala or Wirtz. And then find a way to play Ethan with Odegaard, Rice behind them. But that requires aid to have to functionally effective wings; this will drag numbers out of the zone 14. That’s what we are not doing effectively. Can you imagine Ipswich dedicated ONE player to mark and deal with Martinelli the entire game, so many times! And Martinelli was just out of it 😢
Has Ghostagaard been found yet? 😅
Arteta is anti-counter attack he needs to work on our slow paced game
I really hate the slow pace....
No, not that he is anti-counter attacking football, but he is trying to minimize our defensive risks. Take a look at Liverpool they concede almost every game, and it is mainly as a result of possession turn-overs in the opponents final 3rd and being hit on the counter...
Take a look at that Leicester goal and other missed chances, had they been more clinical Liverpool would have at least conceded a minimum of 3 goals, worse of all in the first half.
So there is a reason why we have the best defense, it is simply based on us not opening up space during build up and keeping possession slow and tidy...
So we cant have it both, so either we adopt Liverpool's counter-attacking fast pace build up system and lose our lose our defensive solidity, or we can keep our system and remain secure at the back, especially from quick attacking counter attack situations.
@@abutalairsolutions5546brilliant take
I'm a fan of slow build up @@princewealthofficial
Arteta doing it because the season long and he doesn’t have a fit bench
We need at least 3 attackers this january, sudakov for odegaard to relieve presssure on nwaneri,
a good 1v1 winger and striker
"For Missing Ghostagaard to ease pressure on 17 yo Nwaneri 😅
Ffs only at Arsenal....
We need a center forward or a left winger with elite dribbling 😊
After spunking £140m on Donkey Havertz, Dogshit Jesus and Fabio Vieria 😅
Timber 2.0 😂 🔥🔥
To many midfieders defenders now arteta needs to step up on attacks
1st priority LW then ST
Or Isak as can do both and a quality passing cm
Compeltely agree about trying Odegaard on the left and probably most fans would too. We could do something in the market for another creative midfielder like Guler so we don’t only depend on Nwaneri. Also, I do think that bringing in a strong and tall striker would really help us with Havertz in this #10 role. Like it or not, Arteta’s way of breaking down low blocks seems to be primarily to throw lots of crosses into the box over and over. Having someone like an Osimhen alongside Kai in the box would significantly increase their success rate.
Bro, you said Gabriel never had a shot all game but he did. He put the ball in the net from an impossible angle and was ruled offside.
Offside shots do not count lol
Very good points coach… 😎
Everyone is a secret weapon for bro at this point
Love from tanzania❤
😮 most teams now try extra hard not to give set pieces and get 10 players behind the ball and there scared to attack us too
Love the vids bro
To truly cross the line and win the league, we need either Viktor Gyökeres, Mohammed Kudus, or ideally both.
Mohammed kudus and Viktor Gyokeres
Kvara, Leao over Kudus for the price tag
Sesko or Isak over Viktor
Gabriel Pec or Quenda perfect for saka competition
Saka's wing still a problem wasn't convinced 😢
Arsenal priblen is not lack of instruction to drive the ball. It is the opposite. They're instructed not to drive with the ball. REMOVE THE SHACKLES. LET THE PLAYERS PLAY.
@Bhavss14
Random question bro what's the name of your background music it's kinda dope ngl🔥
I think the players over enjoyed their Christmas. Anyway 3 points is what matters. We have to regroup and attack more going forward.
Your are the best you're so professional great presentation and quality videos you are the best at what you do
We need Gyökeres or Isak, these two are prolific strikers that we help our seasons. We need a backup for Saka, if not, Saka will be getting injured more. We need Kudus, Lookman or Nico Williams.
The Arsenal online fans I think have a a wish to see this club be like Spurs..they now seem to to have all the ideas for Arsenal, like they were playing fifa
Cobraaa Kaaai new free roaming makes Arsenal unstoppable
6:01 david silva or bernardo silva 😊
I heard Bernando Silva 😉
Arsenal need a whole set of attackers to win the league. A striker and right winger should be a priority for the January transfer.
First viewer from Kenya...long awaited video
Mbogi ni kubwa gathee😂
Top shoter... 😂
Asante
😂😂😂@@benedictmwanjala7983
Pamoja
Jesus should have been the one dropping deep instead of Havertz. Every time Havertz drops to midfield, I get anxiety. He's prone to losing the ball in those areas. Havertz' height would've been more of a threat as well.
6:45
We create chances?
You mean getting to the goal line down the right?
The picture was Bernardo silva not David
4:43 I done said that shit at the start of the season
Timber ..pure quality 👍
Attack / creativity
None existent
No Saka No cutting edge
I think Cunha would be an outstanding signing....but any potential deal for him MUST be done in January....just as with any other Star signing - if we hope to win anything this season!! We are still 1 creative midfielder; Stellar striker, and left winger away from being good enough to win either The Premier League or Champions League!! 😙😙
Areteta Can bench the goal keeper to accommodate havertz
😂😂😂
This is what we should be looking like by the end of January
Raya
Timber/white Saliba Gabriel Califori/MLS
Ode Rice Kai
Saka(if back) Oshimen Kudus
The players we need for this transfer window:
Isak
Osimhen
Gyokeres
Lookman
Cunha
Marmoush
Zubimendi
Olmo
Mbeumo
Kudus.
We need a striker and a left winger and a backup for Saka that can be reliable until March. when he comes back
I think Arsenal need to launch a big bid for Kudos, he would struggle as initially he’ll be covering the right side but he is world class potentially.
I’d also love Lookman but I don’t think he’d want to leave now.
Kudus will elevate us completely..
Unfortunately arsenal aren't used to spending that much money in Jan. Meanwhile man city have already displayed a huge interest towards Kudos , ready to invest big in him and will most likely grab him in Jan
the fact that none of our attackers has double digit goals is alarming. we will not go anywhere with Haverst who can only score tap ins
We need more attacking options
We sign Kudus, we win the league 🤞🏿
Maybe on your XBox 😅
@ got jokes I see
@thabotsutsubi4032 I got a season ticket too
Have you?
@ good for you buddy
@@thabotsutsubi4032 I take that as no and I'm not your buddy
What makes not click much is because we seem too slow and lethargic in a build up. We give them time to regroup.
Martinelli struggles to perform effectively on the left, so why would he be any better on the right in Saka's absence? While I understand some believe this system doesn’t suit him-and I agree that his primary strength is running in behind defenders-there are clear limitations to his game. At his age, he struggles to dribble past most right-backs in the league, exposing some fundamental issues in his overall gameplay that have hindered his development.
For instance, he often plays with his head down, making his crosses more about hitting general areas rather than accurately targeting teammates in the box. His link-up play is practically nonexistent, his dribbling and one-on-one ability lack effectiveness, and he doesn't exhibit the physicality or aggression needed at this level. On the defensive side, his recovery speed is a notable asset, which is likely why Arteta continues to trust him. However, these shortcomings highlight why he remains a work in progress rather than a fully developed, versatile attacker.
AFC does not need any new players if they so wished . All thry need to do is to move Lewis from left full back to a left winger or wing back as have been done with Bukayo, McNeil, Gareth Bale. We already have more thsn enough cover at left back but currently play buffoons at left wing vis Martinelli, Trausard etc
Here is what we learned mate...
We will be out of FA Cup, title race and Cabarao cup in the next 6 weeks unless we blow 100m on that striker or LW we have been waiting to replace Auba! 100% we dropping points against Brentford and Brighton 150%.... I'm coming back here after we have done so.... Last night performance was horrific 💯💯
Odegaard is horrendous last few weeks 😢
Too many sideways passes and no direct running
We need more power upfront
Arsenal should consider on keeping an eye to dani olmo
A left winger and a striker should be priority
Left?? I think Right first
Great thoughts, but why can’t the gaffer see it like us, STUBBORN
Cunha and wissa are the players arsenal should be considering for a trophy
Someone who actually has some knowledge, been saying Cunha for a while now, and I’m getting slaughtered for it, he’s gonna go for a big six time and I hope it’s us.
We are going to ruin saka like whilshere overplaying a young player with no back up options!
Shame on Arteta for destroying Saka.
unless Liverpool get a salah or van Dijk injury were not winning this league or going on a run like last season i just don't believe with this squad unless we got a top forward striker
Let's go for Kudus or Lookman, maybe Rashford if Arteta believes in him and wages are ok...someone strong as striker, someone like Osimhen or Gyokeres...and I would go for Pogba, 1 year contract and let's see what happen
How do you win 5 of 3 ground duels?
2:30 to 3:10
That's the real issue we have.
We need to buy atleast 2 attackers in january or 1 and recall vieira. idk if ffp will allow it but its required if we are serious about winning anything this season. cunha alone wont be enough. No exaggeration to say this jan transfer window will decide our season and possibly the entire future direction of our club for the next 5+ years.
We need a Striker X5
We need a Rafa Leal or Karaveskhelia
Lewis Skelly is the best young inverted LB in the world, insane potential
WHat do you guys think about selling white in the summer if we get a 60+ million pound offer? With MLS coming back I think we can if we keep tierney
we need both a winger and a striker
Biggest Bhavss14 fan
The only secret weapon is within us praying against us . Arteta and people like you .
LMS keeps he's place even if Ben white returns
One day we'll have time to talk about Declan Rice... & How much football (as a midfielder) is not about just running around but intelligence in creative play
Truth said, it does not look like Arsenal is signing any player in January. May be a loan,and it is only just may be. Arteta was clear enough. He is prepared to look for answers internally. This is just to say buying is not always the answer.
Clueless
Arsenal have ended the year 2024 scoring the most goals but fans are still screaming we need a stricker. Football can be strange sometimes. I actaully dont get it!
Have a look at our open play chance creation my friend. We are shit.
@deeray4637 we rank 2nd in chances created in the league this season so far.
