If ødegaard being out for a few weeks causes a collapse, then Arsenal clearly don't have a squad anywhere near strong enough to win the league. Having Rice and ødegaard out for the nld is a big blow, but a side that wants to win the league should still have the squad depth to put out a strong side and win the game.
Meh, it was big blow even before. Rice is a starter for Arsenal, City wanted him as bench warmer for Rodri. That is the level.
@@robhans5 erm, ye, ok 👍.
@@robhans5 so how much blow was it for newcastle when they had like 10 players out in the match day squad for several weeks last season???? if 2 players out means Arsenal world is crumbling
@@adeo767 forgot Newcastle were in a title race🙆🏾♂️🙄
@@deeray4637agree. If Gravenberch or Szobozlai and Salah were out I would still fancy Liverpool favourite in any contest
This guy is a secret Arsenal fan. 😂😂
He is jinxing them
It's ridiculous.
A Chelsea fan getting worked up about Arsenal's injuries, and knocking himself out trying to solve it.
He is from north London
@@kaidenhall2718 Oh that makes sense now.
@@kaidenhall2718 he should stay away from West London then
If John Stones had been a split second too late to clear that ball off the line and liverpool had gotten a point out of that 2-1 loss to City back in 2018/19 we would have been talking about Liverpool's first Premier League title, CL winners and Invincibles, AND, if the following season had then turned the way we know it did it would have back to back league titles for Liverpool and who knows what impact that could have ended up having on the league. I know this is a lot of hypotheticals, but my point is, if you get everything else right then a point against Man City can absolutely be the difference between the stuff of legend and the shoulda, woulda, couldas.
The John Stones clearance would have been an extremely lucky goal for Liverpool, though. It would have been a fluke own goal by City, not anything Liverpool deserved.
@@TP-pq9xx It would have come from Liverpool putting pressure on the City goal they would have deserved it, but I agree it would have been a lucky goal, you don't often see the City defense in 6's and 7's the way they were in that moment.
@@benhogan6732 I just hear Liverpool fans talk about that moment a lot but it's always framed as if City got lucky or Liverpool were unlucky somehow. City almost got extremely unlucky, but it didn't quite happen. It wasn't like a lucky thing happened for City in the title race.
Another "what if" scenario that no one ever talks about is what if Van Dijk had rightly been sent off against Napoli in the CL. Liverpool would have almost definitely gone out in the group stages of the campaign where they ended up winning the whole thing. And if Liverpool had the very poor CL campaign that they came extremely close to having already, maybe they don't push on to win the league the next year either.
@@TP-pq9xx I'm certainly not trying to engage in tribalism here, it was the two best teams in England (probably in Europe) at the time and in a moment of chaos it almost went the other way. I'm only speaking on the matter of "the good point", it does still exist but the margins are so fine now you really do have to be perfect everywhere else. City have mastered this it's just about whether the likes of Arsenal and Liverpool can do the same.
@@benhogan6732 if the referee had rightly given Everton their deserved penalty after Rodri handled the ball Liverpool would have won the league
Why do people think Arsenal have to beat City away? How many times have City beaten Liverpool at Anfield? Honestly it f*ck all
Arsenal was one of the clubs which had some of the fewest games missed through injury during 2023/24, compared to many other teams that suffered far more. It will be interesting to see how they perform, if they are one of the more unlucky clubs with injuries, this time around.
Players picking up muscle injuries aren’t unlucky, impact injuries are unlucky.
Where did they take Rory? This new guy knows ball
Tell that to Jurien Timber
I'd have no problems in starting Nwaneri. You don't find diamonds like Foden, Yamal, Mainoo, or Zaire-Emery if you don't throw them in at the deep end.
Foden wasn't thrown in at the deep-end though; it took years for Pep to gradually cement him into the first team. People were calling for Pep to loan Foden out so he could get consistent first team football. Foden didn't need it though.
listen Rory , we both love Chelsea, but we also both have to admit that Arsenal will find a way, because it's what they do with or without Odegaard, Rice etc
Felt like I was being patronised so many times in this video
Jorginho and Partey together doesn’t work imo.
I would, if Calafiori is fit, play him left back, double pivot with Partey & Timber and Nwaneri in front of them. But there is a reason I am not a coach: I don’t know shit.
I am very VERY curious though what Arteta will come up with. This is going to be a big test for him and the team. If we come out of the NLD (3) and Man City (1) game with 4 points, this could be a huge catalyst for the rest of the season.
Can’t wait for Sunday
Bring it the fuck on, I say.
Let's see what we're made out of. Even if we drop points in these games, the season is far from over. Anyone throwing in the towel or giving up already isn't fit for purpose in this fanbase. Next man up. COYG.
Next four games is defining for Chelsea's season as well
Sir, this is an Arsenal channel
What I don’t understand is when people call us lucky for not getting injuries, other teams may be unlucky but calling us lucky just because we can take care of out players is just bias
It's crazy because as an Arsenal fan I am used to season after season of injuries. Last season was one of the few with so little, and even then Partey, Jesus and Timber were out for quite a bit.
Love the line up with Sterling you really thinking tactical
Define? But you said they already won the league and it's set in stone.
My favorite closeted Arsenal fan 🤩
Declan Rice will play against Atalanta and Man City game
So why are we acting like he’s injured as well
He’s only going to miss the NLD
Like ehhhhh 😩🤣🤣🤣🤣
The Atalanta game doesn't even matter. Arsenal have a very easy group and are already through to the knockout rounds.
This is huge drama and I'm loving it.
Can’t wait until a couple of months from now, when we hear again that these next four games are once again season defining from our favorite Nostradamus lol
I think they would be short of legs in the middle
Love you Rory!! As an Arsenal fan idk how you’re so complimentary but it makes my day mate 🙃
Season defining at 3 games in from the guy who said Haaland would flop 😂
Man cheaty fans are more worried about Liverpool not Arsenal 🤣
I'd prefer Havertz over Jorginho in the central midfield.
Sala is the only player that arsenal can not replace
I really do see nwaneri starting
I think Man City can get devistating injury to players also. If Haaland is the one getting it, do i think things is not over if we lose to City.
Boo-V's all over it. A win against 115FC is crucial.
Quite funny to see Rory advocating insights developed by the analytics teams of Brighton and Brentford about a ‘good point’
Winning those 2 games would put arsenal at a 12 point advantage simple
FFS. I have never seen so much speculation of Arsenals starting 11. Or any team ever 😮😮😮😂😂😂🎉❤
I actually thought this was going to be about Chelsea's next 4 games.
Who cares about Arsenal, I hope they lose every game...apart from v spurs .
Rory, does anyone over on Arsenal fan TV give a fuck about Chelsea?
This will not define our season in the next 4 games I don't think they will lose 2 man city!.
Trossard plays the 10 instead of Raheem
raya. califori, gabriel, saliba, white. timber. partey. havertz. trossard. sterling. saka
thus is great watching after the nld. love rory and his opinions
That photo at the beginning is from an iconic match in Arsenals history. As a Man City supporter I can't name all the players, but obviously recognise Niall Quinn and Viv Anderson.
It was 1987, and Tottenham had been the main club in North London for a long time, and youngsters like me saw Tottenham as the bigger club. Tottenham were, as expected leading this cup tie, but Arsenal came back on won it. There was a realisation that their new manager George Graham was a bit special, and was building a great team. They'd go on to win the league twice leaving a legendary defence that Wenger would profit from. For people to young to remember, it's hard to comprehend that Tottenham were widely considered the main team in London back then.
If we went to city and tried to beat them last season. We wud be current champs. 😮
I’m afraid the “good point” only exists in a league where you can win on high 70s low 80s of points. If Man City are relentless then no good point
Those three games wont define anything at this stage of the season, there is still a lot of football to play. You think if Arsenal win all three they win the league then?
Credit to your editor! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 transformed your videos
Unfortunately.... I agree. The biggest problem is the constant injuries.
There is no reason Odegaard injury is season's defining.
Arteta did not plan him playing the the whole Season
He may not have planned to play him every game but I'm sure games against Tottenham City and Atalanta he would very much liked to have played him, just up to him to use the right system now
raya. califori, gabriel, saliba, white. timber. partey. nwaneri. trossard. havertz. saka
I like your program a lot, thanks 😊
I think your right with Sterling as a 10 that would be enough of a threat to keep Tottenham from pressing forward while also having a steady back line with both Jorginho and Partey sitting deep out defence is already strong as it is
A point away at Man City is acceptable. Anything less than 3 points at home is bad news.
Well we aren’t at home this clown got his fixtures wrong
Beating City is all about mentality. It might not be possible to go unbeaten, but last season we held back away against City and winning that game, which was possible could have been the defining moment. Also, Arsenal is great on away games ... Let's beat City this time.
There is the return fixture too.
Would be nice to not lose at the Etihad
I'm so sure youve become an arsenal fan.
You spot on on this one mate
This guy should just support Arsenal and leave Chelsea 😂😂
I love this brother the 1st time 😂 hearing him but RORY shooting facts. He came out this evening 😂😂 a
So its OFFICIAL. Arsenal's next 4 games DO NOT define their season because whatever you say its a terrible take
It was definitely NOT a good point last season and will not be this season too. The reason being, Man City are not a one time champions they are literally the kings of the PL. Theyve won 4 in a row, and at the time arsenal went to the Etihad, they were the treble winners. Arsenal is the one big club in England that sadly has an inferiority complex to Man City. Their own manager was nothing but assistant to Pep. To dethrone the Undisputed champion, you will never be able to win on points, you have to knock the fuck out of him like Ali did Liston, and when Arsenal went to the Etihad and literally parked the bus City knew these guys weren't real. They were fake. Rodri said it to sky, slightly in a rude manner too, after City won the league
"Arsenal are a great team, but they didn't believe they are better than us, they came to the Etihad, and didnt want to play they played a low block, changed their style, we could see it in their eyes"
Also, for those of us who are old enough to remember, in 2002, Arsenal were playing against the 3 in a row Man United and a point would've been good enough to win the title in the next home game at Highbury, but Vieira told the players, a point is not enough we are going there to win. They played on the front foot, this shook Man United players, and eventually Arsenal won 1-0 winning the title at Old Trafford.
Bro you haven’t even put the right fixtures up…. 🤣😂 city is away not home
Rory surely u didn’t say arteta massively deserves credit for rice being this good, he was £100m everyone knew he was good
we have to beat man City if we're want to win the league
We beat um last season and still didn't win the league.
No stop the pr😅
Rory dreaming of Chelsea having stability
It won't be season defining. We will beat Spurs. Beat Atalanta. Draw City, and the suspense is the same.
Jorginho works as an 8 for us(typically he is an 8) but looks at his game against Liverpool when we beat them at anfield for the first time in years and partey could stay as the 6. Nwaneri should start as the 10 he's a fearless teenager who looks incredible.
simple as this. when you say all sorts of records they broke it sounds like premier league records. All they were breaking are previous arsenal records which don't hold much weight in a premier league title race against city or Liverpool in previous years. They were barely affected by injuries last year compared to other teams and accrued 89 points which has been well below the average points tally needed to win the premier league in the last 10 years.
Reading all comments praying for Arsenal downfall because we have 2-3 Injured players 😂 to bad for you ! We will survive without them
Availability is the best ability. About time Arsenal had some issues with injuries...
3 points against AV
Man city away btw not home like it says in the thumbnail
To be the best you gotta beat the best and Arsenal gotta beat city in both fixtures imo to win
Arsenal broke no records.
Raya
White Saliba Gabriel Timber
Partey Jorginho
Saka. Nwaneri. Sterling
Havertz
Zinchenko in midfield...no-one says this. He plays there for Ukraine😊
Screw it. Start Nwaneri
Sterling and Odegaard are chalk and cheese technically. I simply don't see sterling having the same effect as a ten
The only way to beat Man City to the title is winning and do the double over Man City, 38 wins for any team is the only way to beat City to the title.
Lol, playing party cdm with rice and jorginho ahed of him will be just fine
The thumbnail is wrong actually. Man City is at the Etihad (I wish it weren’t)
Terrible knowledge sometimes rory.. jorginho played left 8 when we beat Liverpool last year.. havez dropps into midfield easy for legs and the front 4 is jesus saka mart.. sterling will come on
Rory talking BS again
No we never buy what we need😅
A load of nonsense...say this in March...surely you must understand. Man City win leagues because they go on long runs from Feb-March
City is away not at home
United had a better season than us. They won a trophy, FA cup, that Arteta twice sacrificed for last 2 years
As an Arsenal supporter, I would have Zinchenko left of Partey, Saka takes Odegard's place and Sterling goes to RW.
Gonzalez Linda Thompson Kenneth Clark Lisa
"It's ok for Arsenal to lose to City"? Didn't you say Arteta playing for a draw last season was managerial genius, and it ended up costing them the title lol
I think Villa doing the double and Fulham taking 4 points off of Arsenal is what cost them the title.
You talk so much crap dude.
Manchester City decides premier league not arsenal
The Arsenal bubble is about to burst. This team has been incredibly lucky over the past couple of years with a lack of injuries and no solid teams aside City. We've had to endure their fans overrate their players so much, it's time they got back to reality.
Lmao, ye ok. Guarantee you were 1 of the ones that said they'd only compete 1 season. You think ødegaard won't return from injury or something?. Unless you're a city supporter, your team still isn't currently better than Arsenal, so keep sobbing your salty little heart out.
"Incredibly lucky over the past couple of years" which includes Jesus, ESR, Partey and Timber out for almost a whole season in addition with Zinny, Martinelli, Saliba, Viera, Tomiyasu injured for a considerable amount of time. Of cos, you didn't pay attention to those injuries bcos they weren't highlighted like other teams.
That comment won’t age well
So Saliba getting injured and Arsenal having to play Rob Holding in the title run in in 22/23 is lucky? An offside goal counting against Brentford? Not to mention the Newcastle and Aston Villa games in 23/24? Red cards not being given to Bruno G and Diego C, the ball going out for a game winning goal, 2 penalties not being given against Villa (Foul on Jesus + Handball in last minute). Not to further mention Timber being injured last season from the get go. Martinelli, Jesus, ESR, Tomi, #5, etc. injured all of last season.
If anything we were unlucky not to win the league but we will see. Your youtube name leads me to believe you do not watch football/ don’t understand the game but we will see.
First real comment ☝️
Hi Rory, Arsenal must take two wins from these three. If not it is over.
Jorginho and Partey should be fine in a double pivot. If Jesus is available, then him and Havertz will create a box midfield with the wingers high.
Should Arsenal fail in the next 4 games then it's very difficult to catch up to City and their hopes for the Premier League title dies.
Tottenham 3-1 Arsenal ☠️
symbolically I think arsenal HAVE to beat city to win the league. I think the NLD is the only excuse arsenal have to lose points in the next few fixtures
Like u say Rory for the first time Arsenal have to deal with injuries. About time Liv, Chelsea and Utd had a lot more last couple seasons and still didn't win the league. Stop crying and get on with it
The only way Arsenal will win the league is if points are deducted for Man City. It's an over-hyped side.. they look a bit better now coz Chelsea and Man Utd are poor.
Arsenal are cooked already, they were lucky to get points at villa too, welcome to real football arsenal suspensions and injuries that you have avoided for ages. I can see a big drop off but still top 4
Arsenal won't win the league the squad was not improved they didn't have enough last season so how are they going to win this season they will run out of legs again and any injuries won't help
I would prefer Havertz or Nwaneri as the 10, esp if Jesus is fit as 9, but could also have Trossard/Sterling as a false 9.
If Calafiori is OK, Zinny/Timber in midfield as an 8, with Partey/Jorginho as the 6.
Have to see, but hope Nwaneri will have a chance
No they don’t rory. We could lose our next 2 league games and the season is nowhere near done. We’re 3 games in.
When you're going against City, it matters massively. If we don't beat spurs this weekend, and City win their next game, that gap will already be too big to close on City.
No, it won’t.
@@deeray4637 7 points with 33 games is not season over. Yes we would have to be near perfect but City will drop points. Better to drop these points early than later on.
If Arsenal lose their next two games, and Liverpool and City win theirs, as early as it is in the season, it's going to be tough pulling back 8 points on both of them, especially City.
