The playing from the back has to continue. We fail to realise it is the best way to draw the opposition and bait them out of their defensive positions. Meaning Auba , Saka etc can drive into space and use movement to open up the opposition. Arteta is doing just fine with it but I just think the players are over confident about it and sometimes try to be too clever. Luis , Xhaka and Leno are culprits and they need to balance it. The city keeper is excellent at it but be sometimes pings the ball at his forwards with absolute precision. Leno should work on that. Every time we have conceded from an error it’s always Leno playing it casually into feet. He sees the game better and should pick wisely.
Under Emery we tried this and we never managed to succeed. He abandoned it at one stage. Arteta is sticking to it and it will come good despite the errors. This is not any comparison at both Managers but rather a emphasis on how we can do it better this time around with same players.
