I noticed nobody is calling Saliba out for how poor he was yester night. Against Crystal, Newcastle and even Man city he wasn't near his best at all.

Maybe he should be given a game or two off to cool his engine Sha. But I know if it were to be other players that are less popular with the fans, we would be calling for their head.

Na wetin I been de talk with my guy dis morning be dis.

If you wan lie, lie properly abeg. When was he my benchmark? 😂😂😂😂😂

Why you riled up about my post that my observation is making you reply in such manner?

lie ke?. OK bye sir.

The best Martinelli offered was a misplaced pass that set off hbp

Isak is why i screamed for a 9 for more than a year. See how he's useful even without the ball. He's made Liba and Co to be nervy. His pace again. Professional nuisance off the ball. Thorn with the ball.

guy chill no body dey follow you argue this striker thing anymore. Even the Haaland that used to be your benchmark, u no dey mention him again In strikers conversation.

If Arteta has a different tactic in mind and Kai doesn't fit in, he will bench him.

is there any tactics in Arteta's mind that wouldn't involve our sweet King Kai??, one can only wonder.

BlueRayDick:
When u see players recycling the ball very close to the dugout and the coach is yelling at them to play forward pass, u don't need a soothsayer to tell u they are executing the coach's instructions to his satisfaction.

If West Brom that was perennial relegation time can overturn 3 goal decifit against an Alex Ferguson team, what makes u think that Man city the reigning champion cannot do the same against an Arsenal team that couldn't hold a goal advantage for a minute as at the last time of both teams meeting?

The game may be dusted to u, but the professional players on the pitch and their coach knows it is not. If a younger player doesn't , he will learn sooner or later.

I understand passing the ball around to kill time which was actually what played out, but Nwaneri saw the way the whole city players were drawn towards that end and leaving him isolated, that's why he wanted the ball. Rice only had to look his direction once to see what the kid saw before passing the ball the next time it got to him. It's not arrogance if you ask me shaa.

Omo! You are right.

But just like Odumodu said, if they can beat us 2 nil on our ground, we can beat them 3 nil on their own ground too.

Psychologically, we are in a good head space, you know, overcoming that Mental Block of overcoming Man City. I think that can give us extra confidence.

I really hope we win it sha.

I'm hoping for the best but expecting the worse.

Watching that Nwaneri goal again, I realised the linesman lowkey celebrated that goal. it's either the goal too sweet am or he's an Arsenal fan or he really wanted City to be dismantled.

And every time they play us, they seems to have about 3 goal line clearance especially that dogoyaro man, Dan Burn.

For today's match, I'll bench Havertz, put Trossard at CF and Ethan at RW. Lets run ring around them.

It is obvious their defenders are good physically and Havertz no get much strength.

Abeg make dem play my Kai for me jaree king Kai for bench??, for important match??, unless Arteta is not the coach again or Kai get injury.

Fkforyou:
Omo!!! Our names they change weekly..o

From, Dark Art FC, to Corner Kick FC, to Set Piece FC and now 36 passes!!!

All in one season? Omo!!! Make we sha just win today because our haters have been getting L’s back to back.

Long May it continue.

In recent years, we have struggled to win against Newcastle, their defensive block and aggressive midfield have always been a problem for us. I'm just wishing we pull through, but the hope is very slim, so is our chance and odd.

🚨 Arsenal were initial leaders in the race for Vitor Reis, but there was internal debate over the finance allocation. 🇧🇷

Mikel Arteta felt the budget should be reserved for first-team emergencies, not on players who were unlikely to be a difference-maker. 💰❌

[@TheAthleticFC] #ArsenalFanaticsNews

Gabriel and Saliba are active, there's kiwior(who hardly gets minutes), Ben white will be returning soon. Why would they even think of Reis in this January??, get us attackers dem no put better work, na defender dem wan buy, yeye.

If what happened this window doesn't convince most fans that the board and management hasn't changed as much as we thought and that all this signings isn't really all down to Arteta then I don't think anything else can. Even Arteta at some point was very sure of signings, players were expecting something, staffs and fans, but here we are, Humbled by the management and those controlling the market.

Be like Monaco page admin na Arsenal fan.

As in.... I was livid seeing him making a right hand side run , I wanted to cuss him out until I saw him get the pass from Martinelli and coverted it. Looking back now, I think he wanted to get the ball at an angle where he can whine it well and that was what he did.

now can you give spy his flowers for always saying Kai is a space interpreter and smart striker

King!!!!!!! Kai!!!°°

Even if na me I go vex, which kind officiating be this

Fkforyou:
Wait, how is that not a yellow for Silva?

omor!

my Boy!!!

Ceenachi:
You still no get my point...
Arteta force Havertz to pick a form which cost us to lose some vital points against the smaller team
I still remember when Arteta drop Partey for beach just to romance Havertz and it didn't work for several matches....if Arteta didn't romance Havertz... lossing to Aston villa won't b a big issue but you guys see it was Aston villa that cost us the league forgetting Arteta romance Havertz for so long

Concerning Partey....
If you're the coach...
You will continue playing Partey as RB and continue dropping points
Nice one 🙌🏾🙌🏾😂😂
But does it make sense to you...

Timber have play LB, CB and RB and it work
Lewis is a MD and he's playing LB currently
Tomiyasu have play RB and LB
Ben white is a CB and DM but he's playing RB currently
Y can't Arteta use Zinchenko, Tierney or Lewis as a RB since he love experiment 🤷🏾‍♂️

I rest my case ✌🏾

You intentionally choose to misunderstand me and that's fine, me sef don over explain cus normally I no dey talk plenty. Biko I haff follow you and rest my case too. 😎✌️
Ps: there's no "you guys" in my Aston villa line of thought and comment, it's just me and me alone. We played 17 matches and only lost 1, so yeah the other losses I don't really count them cus even our biggest opps lost matches and points then too, where the pain comes was lossing when they didn't and till tomorrow if you carry go God front, I go still talk am say, "loosing to Aston villa during the late run in for the tittle with city was where we bottled the league". Thank you.

Ceenachi:
Lemme put mouth for dis....

You saying lossing against Aston villa was the reason we didn't win the league 😂😂
How🤷🏾‍♂️
Let assume we didn't lose against Fulham, Newcastle or west ham... losing to Aston villa won't stop us for winning the league

Or d u forget when Arteta was still doing his experiment with Havertz in our midfield
I beg your pardon... losing against villa didn't stop us for winning the league but other matches cost us when Arteta was romancing Havertz


You saying Partey is the only option to play at the right back but you forget something.... playing Partey at the RB is not the issue but look at our midfield...and it have cost us alot of point

What is the gain of Playing Partey as RB but keep exposing your Midfield 🤷🏾‍♂️
Arteta did it more than 5-7 matches and we won only 1
By now he would have stopped that nonsense experiment but what d I know 🤷🏾‍♂️

Bro make una try dey understand us before una quote us. I said loosing to Aston villa "in the late run in with city" made us loose the epl, and that's true. Regardless of the other matches we dropped poibts, the game and epl was still in our hands till we lost to Aston and City took over. If we didn't loose that match and had won, do you think city would have topped us with 1 point?. ??......
I don't know about others, but if I'm the coach and with the injury crisis we've had at the RB position and the additional bodies in midfield, I will choose partey to play rb because he have played there before and have the experience. Yes he will cost us some games playing rb(as he have done couple of times), but I will still choose him ahead of any other name you will mention. And please if partey isn't playing rb with white, tomi and timber out, kindly recommend a player that should fill In there so as to allow partey play his preferred and natural position.

You couldn't bring proof but you want me to agree with you

I believe your laugh is directed to yourself for being too lazy to make a simple research before coming to type what will make people see less of whatever you say, cus anyone who has a smart phone and wants to know if I'm right or wrong would have done so by now and just sitting back looking at you play with yourself and your own words. Have a blessed night, Arsenal won and Kai scored

We just need to win today to qualify. Even if na half a goal make we just win fess.
