He’s always forming activity, talking to six people at same time

Over activity.

He is intelligent no doubt, but leaving your role as a holding midfielder and turn coach inside field is annoying.

Amigoss:
Lmao so he dey annoy you ba even as a gonner , imagine your airpod wearing assistant,setpiece coach,GK coach all mouthing off on the sidelines and forming activities

It’s okay to talk to your players but not always wanting to tell them what to do and where to stay, when you are a player just like them, and whenever he gets the ball under pressure he himself doesn’t know what to do.

Shegzdave:
At a point I didn’t know he was on the pitch

I hope grows into the game.

Rice had been on Ghost mode in this match.

I miss the Old Trosaard, this one have been misplacing passes.

Nothing should ever happen to Raya..o

Can Jorginho STFU for once instead of trying to tell everyone on the pitch what to do?

Happy New year Gunners.

I pray we win the league this year.

From the comments, it seems Timber has taken that RB spot from White.

Let’s see how it will pan out when White returns.

Quick one guys.

White vs Timber vs Tomiyasu.

Who owns the right back spot for the next 2 seasons.?

Happy New year

Yes I agree but I don't really know him or his potential
As for raya I am surprised he's over rated with his saves

Yeah! I know right. People will always have a different opinion.

As for me, Raya is one among the best Goal keepers in the league. I had to choose between him and Timber who my Surprise of the season was.

But Raya is a world class keeper. Yes, he makes mistakes, but he is very good, both with his feets and making world class saves. But then again, everyone get their opinion.

Silentgroper:
he's only available on loan ...

Oh okay.

iamoyindamola:
Is overrated not the person they hype and isn't worth it, how is raya and calafiori overrated

In my opinion, Calafiori hasn’t lived up to my expectations of him. So yeah, to me, he is overrated.

Probably next season, I might categorize him and most improved or surprise of the season.

I would have loved Arsenal to get Chiesa bar his injury record.

He is suitable to be Sakas’ back up.

🏟 Your club name: Arsenal
👏 Player of the Year: Saka
🛬 Best new signing: None of Them
🤯 Biggest player surprise: Timber
📉 Biggest Player flop: Tomiyasu
📈 Most improved player: Gabriel
👀 Most Overrated player: Calafiori

The number of touches wey we don do for opposition box, we suppose don score more by now.

😂 when they thought they have figured out corner kick out, we bring another style.

Nice one, Rice.

BlueRayDick:
Arsenal Vs Loserpool this season Partey played in RB and it was one of his best performances in an Arsenal shirt.

Partey played RB under Simeone not because there was excess personnel situation but because the regular RB's were out. It is the same thing that is currently happening that has prompted Arteta to use him in that position.

Let's hope white comes back soon and Timber also gets to play RB while Calafiori and Tomiyasu are also fully fit. When the regular starters are fully fit, we can start calling for Arteta's head for using players out of their natural position.

You made sense.

One thing I’ve observed about Arteta this season is that he has learnt to make decisions that he feels is best for his team and not listen to external opinion.

There is also this level of Calm I’m beginning to observe with him no matter the situation. He takes each game as it comes, maybe is Maturity or Naivety, only time will tell.

If you watch some of his post match interviews, you might get what I’m saying.

Chelsea has dropped point.

We have a favorable tie tomorrow.

God help us.

As par very disgusting place. The day I mistakenly stepped out of my estate to visit someone the smell from the gutter was horrible. I couldn't believe people breath that nonsense everyday.

Most people are already used to the smell.

Anytime I travel out of the state, the air is much cleaner and fresher, but the moment my flight enters Lagos, the first thing that hits my nose is the smell of the city, this is mostly true if you board a night flight and you are coming in when everyone is asleep.

For the first 3-5 hours my system will be messed up but after some time, it automatically adapts to it and life goes on.

It’s just crazy men.

If you recently relocated to Lagos from the North, I won’t lie, it will be difficult.

House agents in Lagos are the most exploitative people ever.

It’s one sector that I’m surprised the government haven’t stepped in to regulate.

In Lagos, everyone wants to exploit everyone, everything is an opportunity to cash out, it’s why Lagos is a difficult place to live.

The government is making life hard, while Lagosians are making it harder for themselves with their greedy nature.

Na only work they carry people come Lagos, if not, Lagos na trashy city.

TH14 made an analysis about Martinelli, which to me was spot on. I wish Arteta can look into it and help him improve. Like seriously, the guy can’t beat his man for once, even a 39 year old Young and that’s worrying.

We really need to get that Left hand side of the team working because as it is now, we are so predictable. Once things are not going well for us, our game plan involves, pass pass to Saka who most often times than not, he is marked by 2-3 people.

It’s the same observation I saw someone mentioned on Twitter too.

If Martinelli can become dangerous again, it will relieve the pressure on Saka and make us unpredictable.

I pray the team shows up today because we have been so inconsistent for the past 10 games.

Today’s match is a must win.

I pray Liverpool drops point this weekend.

On a side not. Arsenal fan have never been this divided since the last days of Wenger.

On one hand, there are those who have lost patience with the process and those that have never liked Arteta since when he became coach, while on the other hand, there are those who still have faith in the process and those that are just in love with Arteta and see him as our only messiah. 😂🤣

Quite funny actually. 😂

But na those ones wey Dey always complain about Arteta and the team Dey irritate me pass. Like, before match start, negativity don Dey ooze. No, I don’t mean having doubt at the line up or questioning it, I mean outright cursing Arteta and hoping for the team to fail, like really

At the end of the day, I really love Arsenal more than the coach or the player, I guess, Fabregas, Van Persie, Song, Nasiri and co have shattered my innocence and love for a player.

I just want Arsenal to succeed and I am really hoping the team does so.

My prediction for today is that we will win 3-0 😎

COYG!

When naivety speaks.

I honestly feel we are less effective when Partey plays right back, our transition is greatly hampered by that.

I seriously don’t get how Zinchenko is injured haven been on the bench for long resting, and had only just played his first start on Wednesday. Like, make it make sense.

I saw Odegaard get kicked twice in the game, yet continued to press on. We have so many weak and unintelligent players in our squad that we need to move on from.

It was an unlucky day for us that now, I don’t know if we are still in the race again self.

Gabriel Jesus was in the game for more than 30 minutes, yet did absolutely nothing. We really need to offload a lot of players I swear.

daveP:
Kai is not in this game at all. Partey needed in middle. Rice attacking more than him.

Unfortunately, our left backs don swear say they can never be fit, even though, I expect Arteta to bring Tierney on so that Partey can move to midfield and Timber back to right back.

Jimenez has been doing what I expect Hervertz to do in this game. Baba has been so slow this afternoon.

We have to change things in the 2nd half.

Roland17:
They love the old Arsenal that was weak and accepted anything and everything. A fanbase that was content with top 4 and no desire to win something tangible.

A team they could use their own dark arts on and no one would cry. That team no longer exists and it is making them wail. Long may their tears and anguish continue.

Amen..o!!!

Let’s crown it all with a trophy, so that we can drink their tears with it 😂

iamoyindamola:
Fvck them all
My only wish is for arteta to try his best to win major trophy this season

Exactly my bro!!!

Like all the talk is just annoying.

They should focus on Man City or Liverpool and stop talking trash about us.

See the rubbish United did today. Honestly, I thought some of our players are annoying till I watched Man U game today.
Zirkzee, Rashford and Onana. Fvcking clowns, yet all they do is attack and compare Saka with everyone.

Man City dropping points sweet my belle.

And what’s up with all the attack on Arsenal offlate.

Rival Fans, Pundit, Ex Players.

It’s as if anything Arsenal does, they just want to shit on our parade. Even if we have annoying fan base , we don’t deserve this level of criticism we are getting.

It’s as if, they like the old Arsenal that loses match any how, the ones that can be bullied.

It’s one of the reasons I really want us to win a trophy, to press their neck well well.

Fvck the haters.

Shegzdave:
I said this yesterday that his corners are looking like he wants to score a goal from the corner stand

Nelli and Trossard shouldn’t be playing the corners jawee, Odumodu should keep playing the corner from that wing except he isn’t on the pitch

I agree, I don’t know if it’s one off or it’s how he normally takes his cross.

I like this corner kick tactics.

Strikers are the decoy while defenders are the main target.

Who else noticed that all the corner kicks by Rice yesterday were very dangerous.

I really want us to go on a winning run from now till end of the season so as to put pressure on Chelsea and Liverpool.

Let’s not forget a wounded City that has De Bruyne back in the first team.

I will take this one, no matter what anybody thinks.

Na because we sabi na him make them no get any corner kick.

COYG!!!

On the next one.
