I believe he will bounce back though with partey you are covered.

Arteta knows when he wants to win match

Partey limps out

I hope partey is not injury prone

Hehehe. Any African born and raised footballer is 3-5 yrs older than his football age until proven otherwise. Una don buy overage.

Arsenal players and muscle injuries be like 5 & 6, the worst part is that our medical team no sabi handle that kind injury..

Partey & ESR both have muscle injuries/ discomfort..

Xhaka appreciation post!

3-5 ke.

5-8 years rather.

I don't know if it's just me, but I think Cedric is a better fullback compared to Bellerin. I think he just needs to get his confidence high, more playing time and we will be calling for bellerin to be forgotten on the bench. Looking back to the build-up for that third goal ysterday, I was really impressed with how he didn't waste time switching the ball to the other end of the field; that is some Alexander-Arnold shiiit right there .

I also like the fact that he doesn't hesitate to make runs into the box when need be and he's not scared to attempt a shot.(He nearly scored a beauty yesterday but for the wind). I hope Arteta doesn't just relegate him to the bench behind Bellerin when Tiernney comes back.

from what I’ve seen, He plays better as an LB,

Wrong...he's a full back, he knows what required of him unlike bellerin that we will blame injuries for his form.

Someone said it here before, when Partey was being linked to Arsenal that the guy won't give more than 2 year's of good football, that a 27 year old African , born and raised in African is probably at his peak or close to a decline because he's probably well over 30 years in real age.

If you want to enjoy any African player, buy then when they are under 24/25, that way, they will serve you for many years.

He's a better rb than bellerin. Crosses better, attacks better and not bad defensively.

But then, I think bellerin is one of the untouchables in that arsenal team, so I don't see Soares ousting him anytime soon.


Meanwhile, how was Pepe performance yesterday? Didn't get to watch the game

Pepe played well yesterday, For the first goal he did what I have always wished he would do; stayed on his feet when he was being pressed for the ball by the opposition player. More like he has learnt to shrug off players and keep the ball at his feet instead of losing it at the slightest pressure being applied on him.

kokanepyramid:

It will be unwise to play him at LB if Tierrney is well and fit. He will be at a disadvantage for not being a natural left back.

Nice one of him.

I hope he keeps up with the performance.
Hopefully, ESR and partey injuries aren't serious oo.
We need them on Saturday

what’s the difference between fullback and LB? He played at LB yesterday and for me that has been his best performance so far

He hasn’t really impressed me at RB enough to bench Belema that’s my argument

Olodo
I'm telling you qualities of fullbacks which he have more than bellerin kuku tell Arteta to be using him ahead of Tierney na

I said he played better at LB than RB, and what u can infer from that is “he’s better than Tierney and I want him to play ahead of Tierney.”

I can’t take responsibility for the way you comprehend.

You keep mentioning lb, the only lb we know is Tierney
Why confusing yourself again
Blueray told you it won't be ideal to play him ahead of Tierney

Where did I mention he should play ahead of Tierney.

Don’t get yourself confused, saying Cedric has played better at LB vs RB is an isolated comparison of “his” performance on both sides. I didn’t compare him with Tierney.

Simple logic, this argument is not necessary.

kokanepyramid:

It can be argued he hasn't been played well enough @RB for one to pass judgement Bellerin is better than him .....However, he has been showing some real qualities Bellerin has been lacking.

My point is he should be given more playing time and not just make Bellerin automatic starter by default at that RB
