He won a foul and is good in attack as well as defence. He's rusty but his quality was still plain to see.

It seems Luis Suarez helped to steer Torreira to Arsenal.

That extra £1 paid off in the end!

So hyped about this guy. Might very well be the signing of the season in the premier league.
@04.35, that disguised defense splitting pass is so Cazorlaesque

I like him. His ball to Aubameyang who was marginally offside was sublime. We should be looking to find complimentary partners in the squad for him this season.

Still mad they called that given all the other **** calls in that game. Nothing wrong with bad calls, but they have to be for the right team ffs.

Glad we've added him and the 'lion king' doozy into our midfield. Love their grit and confidence with the ball..expecting a lot from this two this season for Arsenal to remain relevant in the top 6

He showed more of what we need in his cameo than Xhaka has in 2 years. He'll be critical to our fortunes this season. Looks a very, very good signing. If we handle things well he and Guendouzi could have the midfield mostly sorted for the next 6-7 seasons.
I think no city player got past him or won a tackle against him since he came on. He'll be important player in our midfield

He'll make Xhaka obsolete. Just levels above, sharper, stronger, quicker, technically better and is an absolute bastard, in the right way.

He'll be starting against Chelsea, and probably most games after that!

Best part of his game for me, and what we need most, he's Positionally intelligent. Knows where to be on the pitch at all times.

Terrible hot takes
It'll be Xhaka Torreira Ramsey and Özil Auba Laca upfront

Quality player made a difference
Emery should have six captains.

Aside from the moments of quality passing (Lichtensteiner and PEA offside), I was impressed with the way he played/positioned himself on a particular City break where Bellerin(?)/our flank was out of position/exposed, dropping off to cover the runner on the left wing while also putting pressure on the ball which ended up as an intercepted pass. Pretty fundamental defending but that intelligence which we have lacked for years and would have, in years past, ended up with the defender directly pressing the ball leaving the space behind for the pass into space leaving our CB’s exposed.

Surely not Guendouzi? I thought he was great today despite his errors.

Terrible hot takes
Cost us a goal, almost 2
Of position way too much which messed up the whole new defensive setup
