this style of play by Arteta using partey as inverted fullback will never take Arsenal to where near top four..if tries ds useless formation against big four,hm) Arsenal go collect wotowoto.. he's only doing this just to favor and sure his wasteful Havertz plays

Vinnie2000:


Last season, he played @Right back.🙂

This season, he is playing central Defence while Partey is playing right back.

Declan Rice is playing Partey's DM position.

His (Rice) Inability to play like a Central midfielder and move forward like McAllister of Liverpool is the cause of this.🤨

Also, Arteta trying to play Havertz @all Cost is another reason.

Take note gunners fan, Arteta has lost all arsenal matches played on monday, he has lost four so far, anyways record ar to be broken, it would be a very tuff match for arsenal.

Gentleswift:
you actually have zero knowledge about football.(no offense) Rice commanded the midfield well reason he was awarded man of the match. And as for havertz, he brings something entirely different from the rest of the lads. When arsenal want to breakout quick, he's their Target man. Reason why the gaffer went for Raya. He has that long range precision. You can't always play from the back. Arteta has different options, and this makes us unpredictable.

Many comments here just lack knowledge of the game. Very funny comments. Straight away, anybody can see that Havertz brings aerial presence that is lacking in attack and he will help out the defence when defending corners. How did they even expect Arteta to take him off for Trossard with a man down away from home?

tuzle:
come on arteta makes a lot of wrong decisions that sometimes u wonder what has gotten into him for example today match is a perfect case where many players are being played out of position, failing to sub sometimes even when everyone except arteta knows we need fresh legs and also failing to play some players and starting others instead. That was the major reason we bottled the league last season because arteta thinks he is guardiola 2.0.

Wordson:
Arsenal just got lucky in dis match to make away with a cheaply given PK...
Nothing spectacular Abt dir match today

sexymonkey:
the fool wasn't a defensive midfielder, Wenger converted him after Song left.

donbenie:
It doesn't have to be spectacular nor pretty..
Arteta have lost his 4 previous Monday night away games..
This on itself is spectacular enough.

Vinnie2000:


But He is not Doing it.

He has preferred to Play a Standard Defensive Midfielder like John Mikel Obi or Javier Mascherano.😒

He was bought to partner Thomas Partey and move up the pitch while TP stays on his favourite DM position. Go and watch Arsenal mancity, the recent community shield at Wembley stadium

But he has claimed Partey's DM position now due to his Immobile nature
and Arteta has forced Partey to play Right back.

I wish we bought Youri Tielemmans or McAllister, instead.

They Play what Declan Rice was bought to Play for us.😕

No wonder him wan do him own conversion with these team of brilliant boys.

Many games last season, you go see say na him just dey cause confusion for those boys. Leave those boys to put the fear of God into the opponent's hearts and we won't need to be playing like Burnley.

Him matter tire me, I no go lie.

Armchair Experts..

See the way you are analyzing it..

As if you would've done better than the Manager..

sexymonkey:
arsenal no fit win epl with Arteta. As stubborn as Guardiola is and his top team, he stops every nonsense tactics the moment he senses it's not effective.

Luckysbab:


Arteta should be having weekly sessions with a psychiatrist. At his age, he still has the mentality of a teenager in his approach to his job.

ReacherSaidNoth:
Zinchenko and Timber being unavailable necessitated Partey's inverted RB position.
Flooding the midfield with an inverted fullback is essential to our style and a major part of last season's success.

Because White can't invert and Saliba is a better central defender, Gabriel stayed on the bench. Tomiyasu is athletic so it made sense to play him as the left of the back three.

The only issue we have is up front where Nketiah's style doesn't suit Martinelli like a Jesus or a Trossard does.

Calling Arteta stupid is uncalled for on your part, he knows better than you.

And for bleeps sake how does formation cause injury or red cards?

JhyMedex:

With all due respect ... U need to shut up and sit down!!

Luckysbab:


Arteta Fanboys Club. That's your own AFC. That's your cup of tea as well.

JhyMedex:

Got nothing to do with being a fan boy..
But you've been going on and on .. Like you have a vendetta..
C'mon this guy doesn't even know u exist!
Y expend so much energy on his affairs??

Luckysbab:


We should stop talking about the state of affairs of Nigeria simply because Tinubu doesn't know of our individual existence? i don't understand this logic.

JhyMedex:


You really trying to compare the two?..

Football and Actual events that shape the livelihood of millions..

Really??

Luckysbab:


What is the football without the fans? Does CR7 know his hundreds of millionss of followers on an interpersonal level? Why then do that stat matter?

Jalaw:

Which Gabriel dey bench?

Luckysbab:


And this is the difference with Arteta. Him go stick to that nonsense, trying to prove what-not
