Mikel Arteta: Aston La Vista To The Title?

[Farzad Stoned]

He took White off and replaced him with Tomi against Grealish at half time. Not really a tactical change though.

No he has to have a plan B for this we had similar problem against Leeds. We won by one great strike from Saka 1-0. And frankly we stole that match, their midfield kicked our ass. I would like Xhaka or Ode to make some runs through the middle or switch play more quickly, have the wingers push up and wider on the pitch to make it more difficult to get two guys out there. Do something different

We are missing ESR. Need him back asap.

Yes he could of made a lot of runs with the ball from an attacking midfield position. If played as a midfielder he is our only one who can catch it in tight space and run with it. Jesus also would of made it much more difficult to execute their gameplan

Still naive sometimes, anyway il shut up.

City breaking every rule and getting a points deduction I am hearing?

"Eat my fooking shorts, guyz!!!"

wtf

That game was crying out for someone like Bernardo Silva who is shifty and can dribble to do something on their own. Also we didn’t have any time on the ball and Xhaka isn’t agile enough to get the ball make a move quickly and get rid. Slowed down our attack. When teams don’t play with as much energy it’s not as noticeable.

Have we been 2-0 down and come back to turn the match under Arteta? Struggling to think of any games that we have.

Definitely get the feeling he is so wedded to his system, he’s unable to think outside the box a bit when teams have figured it out. We are still a work in progress so that will come with time

West Ham away from 3-0 down.

More likely chest or ass hair.

Wouldn't you need ass hair like Fabio's?

If you watch back the Everton game, you will see we got the ball into space quite a number of times. The spaces between their lines were tight for the entire match, not just when they took the lead.

We were able to execute our space creating routines, and get into transitional situations in this match too. Nketiah, Saka, Ødegaard, Zinchenko (surprisingly), Martinelli all found themselves in and around the box with an opportunity to take a shot at goal. TP5 also found himself in space for his shot which the keeper could deal with.

So the opportunities to create spaces were there, despite the excellent tactics and physical approach of Everton. That tells you that despite Dyche's winning managerial performance on Saturday, it is still not able to completely close us down in attack

I do agree though that we need to implement more variety to our game, specifically our attack. Our build up and press resistance is as strong as it is due to the multiple ways we do it. We need that in our attacking movements as well. An approach that goes beyond our current ability to create overloads everywhere, because that just forces the team back into the "Dyche V".

Get some variation into our attack soon enough, and we will win this league easier.

Would probably look better than the ridiculous 80s hairdo he's got now. My man had the Gazidis haircut just months ago have some shame ffs.

The Patrick Swayze of our times. The ladies in Bolton going wild

Getting that hair transplant is probably the best thing Holding's done at Arsenal tbf.

Well worth the money he's spent. He's gone from looking 40 odd to 25.
