Mbappe is good in tight spaces, in combination with his otherworldly pace and acceleration plus finishing, that's a deadly combination. He is nowhere near elite in that aspect though. There is probably like 300-1000 other footballers right now with better ball control in tight spaces than Mbappe. That's enough to make him one of the best in the world anyway.
You should keep gem like this for twitter where posting absolutely brain dead takes like bolded could at least earn you some money if you've got blue checkmark.
At Arsenal alone it's definitely at least 4 (Zubimendi, Saka, Ødegaard, Trossard)
Yeah he was way off pace and it was clear to see from the start. I don't understand why we keep playing our players when they are have knocks and are ill. Surely Nwaneri could have played today if Saka wasn't well. The way the club manages some of these players isn't right man. What's the point of all the "depth" when you still refuse to use it?
Tbf I don't think any single other attacking player in the Premier League gets less protection than Saka. It's insane looking at how he's kicked, grabbed, chopped down etc. how much they allow against him when they know by now how he's not one to go down easy, yet they still allow for him to get picked off the ground and then thrown back down again by Mings with no penalty given or getting kicked by McArthur from the back while in midair and McArthur still only getting a yellow card.
we play like a 10 men
