Think this good for us he been used for mourinho since restart it'll affect his game planDier banned. Not sure if good or bad for us. He hasn't been particularly convincing as a CB under Mou but Alderweireld, who is a superior player talent-wise, might be lacking sharpness since he hasn't played a lot
Auba isn't gonna play in the centre. It will be Laca in the centre and Auba on the left. Arteta has played every game like that, why would he change it now.
Laca should be dropped for his missed chances last night imo, need to get Pepe back in the side as well.Auba isn't gonna play in the centre. It will be Laca in the centre and Auba on the left. Arteta has played every game like that, why would he change it now.
Any referee being referee for this is significant, can see him giving a pen/red card against Arsenal

I'd like to see Auba in the centre and Saka on the left just as much as everyone else, but there's just no indication that Arteta's gonna do that. So we just have to go along with it.
Fixed.
Oliver reffed both teams matches only a couple of games ago. They picked him for the drama. I actually think this could work in our favour.

Do we all agree that Pepe, Saka and Auba is our best available front 3? If so, why would he not play them?
