Our only positive player who started the game.

If Arteta was pro active we would have tried MLS at CM a few times this season with Rice to see if it’s a way we can be a bit more front footed in build up.

We’re not gonna see it now. At LB he has his moments defensively etc as we know this season, but it’s more about the missed opportunity of having him in the midfield. He offers something that none of our other CMs offer.

Said on the match day thread, but the worst thing for him is to play well right now.

Means Arteta will not sell him or use him at cm. Doubly so if we bottle the title, as it will mean Mikel will quadruple down on the margin thing.

He has concrete interest from man united and we have to make sales in the summer. Even if he plays every game well he’s the first we will cash on. 100% profit is too good to turn down

Young midfielder with promise and our loser manager plays him only at LB. If he’s sold, I hope he doesn’t any of the papers. Force the club into legal action and find a way to embarrass themselves.

Possibly can play in the middle, but turns off in the middle of plays. He had the player who scored the first goal, but quit on the play.

I do not like him as a defender at all this season.

This kid was the cause of the first goal... as he stops taking the runner and the second goal he doesn't close the midfield.

Other than that, he's not fast enough to recuperate and is often out of position. He needs to stop being dillusional... his best position for now is being a LB and that's what the team needs so he needs to work on that.

is it so difficult to just play him as a midfielder? yes he had an amazing breakout season as a defender but he isnt.

It sounds like his shortcomings is precisely why he is NOT a LB. Like why should someone who lacks pace and who can be a defensively liability be a left back over a center mid? Zubi made plenty of mistakes that led to goal this season, is he a left back too?

Not like he's running his mouth or crying to play midfield either.

Zubi is obviously the better player, but that's not to say we could not have rotated him at times for MLS this season given Merino is out and Nørgaard is simply not trusted.

And like, no is saying the guy is answer. But it's clear there is a premier league level player there.

That level looked to be top half of the table when he broke through. Specially since the overall level of the team was miles (pun intended) ahead of what MLS faced.

Would rather find where he falls while he's here, as it's a lot cheaper and has the added emotional benefit of him being an academy kid.

Because he never trusted him in midfield all season and chose to overplay Zubi and Rice, he feels now it’s too risky to use him in midfield with so much at stake. But the strange thing is he never trusted Nordgaard either. Sadly I see him taking Zubi and Rice even if they are 40% over the other 2 guys.

Logically the moment he lost trust in Nordgaard he should either blood in mls in midfield or asked for a loan player as cover. Instead he just wore down his two starters and he has 2 physically struggling midfielders and 2 fresh ones he don’t wanna use. Just poor squad management
