    Need some flair in midfield. Rice, Partey and Merino have the combined creativity of a weetabix biscuit.

    Really seeing how special Martin O is when watching this current setup. Hurry back young man. Good to see Martinelli finding some form.

    I was at work today and did not think about the game once. The CL and football in general is slowly becoming as insignificant as everything else in life. I need a win against Liverpool to feel like there is some hope.

    Aside from that, love the vids & love your work James 😂 All the best, safe home! #UTA

      I don't care for this format, either. Still watch though, cos it's Arsenal.
      I thought the new format was supposed to make games more interesting. I couldn't be less bothered so far. Even the PSG game seemed an annoyance before a game against frickin Southampton!

    There speaks the voice of Costa coffee. Flat performance. I'd really like to see Arteta give Nwaneri a chance in these dead games. It looked like a training match out there and only Martinelli seemed to be willing to grab the game by the scruff of the neck. His return to form is very timely, but we are missing all the creativity on the right side now.

      Why do people tend to think they know more about a player they saw play for odd 45 minutes whole season than a manager who spends every day with him?
      Every considered that there might be a good reason he's not starting games?

  • @naseibonsu8120
    @naseibonsu8120 День назад +1

    🔴 Partey dominated the midfield in the 1st half! He has to start in midfield NOT right back! Him not playing there disrupts our whole play especailly the line and link to our forward players. Rice plays completely differently to Partey in cm and doesn't feed our creative players. Rice is concerning me in the 8 and the 6. He is not creative enough to be an 8 and his style has stiffled our creativity. As a 6 He is very rigid and lacks invention. Rice is pretty basic. Tonight showed me that Rice cannot dominate any midfield on his own. He doesn't have the brain for it. 🔴

  • @llwyde1104
    @llwyde1104 18 часов назад

    Only clowns will judge Merino yet. Rice is slowly getting back to last season's form. Jesus showed signs of some form. Martinelli was lively. That said there was a lack of urgency that led to loss of control. Liven up boys!!!

    Arteta has built midfield wrong, rice is not a 6 as he can’t pass the ball, nor is he an 8 same thing for merino.
    Partey and Jorginho are old amd leggy amd we have no 10’s.
