Yeah start him against Newcastle so that you show that you back your players and don’t punish them for making one mistake after a bad run of games.
Then we can bring KT back in the following week. Arteta won’t do that though.

It sets a ridiculous precedent too, one bad game and you're out is so silly.

There is a "Tuesday Club" Invincible episode on YouTube, somewhere on there Amy says this happened when she was interviewing Campbell.
I believe her, as Sol is definitely the type to say that

Sol's a legit lunatic to be fair.
Great player though.

Was one of the few players that weren't afraid of Liverpool yesterday. Maybe it was naivety, maybe not but I hope he isn't dropped for his mistake yesterday. Start him against Newcastle then bring on Tierney later on.

He had a terrible outing but everyone knew it would be an avid test. That being said I still think he has the ability to develop into a top class LB. There seems to be no attention span anymore everyone expects players to always have great matches. A lot of experienced fullbacks have gotten torched at Anfield even Barca a couple years back when they were still good imploded there so let’s not throw the baby out with the basket.

His mistakes were egregious and he needs to take some time to earn his way back, imo. It's not about best fit or whatever. He was a better fit this match being more athletic than Tierney but those mistakes you just cannot make and keep your place. Disciplining him is not calling him a failure.

He had a terrible game against Liverpool and Tierney would have been better in every respect - attacking, defending and not giving the ball away with stupid, careless passes to the opposition. I've lost faith in him after that performance.

Man **** talksport@Macho
...media did him dirty
Shocked they lied to make an Arsenal player look bad, really not like Talkshite.
Hope Jack and Laura stop going there

He was good against Villa but other than that what has he exactly done to make people think he has been awesome?
Defensively unremarkable, shoddy linkup with Lokonga/ESR, can sometimes get in good positions thanks to his natural strength but nothing at all happens after that, not involved whatsoever in any of our few relevant attack attempts on recent matches.
Making a fun dive to get a Watford player sent off is all that I can recall. Not seeing how that constitutes "strong run of form", "top class LB in the making" or even being better than Tierney at his worst.

I'm a massive Tierney fan, but totally agree with this. You drop Tavares now and his confidence is shot - give him an easier game against Newcastle and then bring Tierney back into the side.

He kept playing dani cellbaos after costly mistakes. If you have a shocker then you should be dropped. This is not play school.

Tbh it all depends on what type of manager he is. Both approaches work as long as you're consistent. From how Arteta has treated his favourites then he shouldn't be dropping Nuno after one poor game against one of the best teams in the world.
However if this was a Guardiola/Conte/Tuchel team then Nuno would already know that one poor performance and your mate gets to have a go, doubt he'd take it personally.
The Newcastle game will begin a run of 10 games in 35 days so Nuno will see plenty of minutes regardless.

Sol Campbell started taking things personally long before MJ did it.
Country: England
Why do you think it's like that? Arteta speaks to these guys behind closed doors you know...
Country: Iceland
I have faith in Tavares. I have a skill set that will benefit us both as starters and also when coming on at 80 minutes to run at defenses.
But was that worse performance than Chambers vs Swansea?

Nah, Chambers was worse. Did it against a worse opponent as well.
