Make una no worry, Arteta said we will fly against Liverpool. grin grin

Our available defenders for that match are White, Kiwior, Myles, Zinchenko and Gabriel. It is either Kiwior starts of Partey moves to RB. A very stern test for Myles who will likely be marking Mo Salah.

Saka may definitely not be fit before Sunday so Sterling should get the nod. Ethan as a #10 and Havertz up top.
don't be surprised to see Saka start against Liverpool, that boy and White too stubborn when it comes to playing with or without being fully recovered, and Arteta like that attitude die. Arteta saying we will fly against Liverpool can only mean an important squad player might be making a comeback from injury. How we hide injury updates about our players makes it hard to know who's really in or out. And about the discipline issues, I think Arteta is talking about it to them but maybe not too serious or these players head dey just touch sometimes. I remember reading about having a word with white when he got red, and punishing Trossard for his too, if he wasn't talking about it to them, I don't think he would have given Trossard the light punishment that he got.

Arsenal is now playing dirty and protecting their players
Good approach because other teams have been doing it, we have suffered severely in this hands of this international break past and present

Partey have been withdrawn and coming back to London, I want saka back too
I think we withdrew Saka from the last one, if we should repeat it, it might attract fifa attention.

Normally fans are hard to please. It's not just peculiar to arsenal fan base tho, it's same thing everywhere.

There are different types of football fans. There are fans who don't like the coach and will never support the coach. If he makes any mistake he will get bashed ; if he's doing well he won't be commended because that is the job he's being employed to do.

There are fans who don't like the coach initially, but get won over by the coach by his consistent performance and hope he tops it up with trophies.

There are fans who like some particular players and will always find a way to stan them even when they are not doing well.

There are fans who dislike some certain players and will never see any good in them no matter what they do. If such players drop match winning performance, they will just shrug it off and not really give them credit.

At the end of the day, if the club wins a trophy all the fan base will forget about their differences and follow each other to celebrate the feat.

In summary, make we Sha win trophy and all the fan base will live happily ever after grin

i kwusigo everything. You've said it all.

Jodera 4 goals in 7 games for king Kai. 13 goals before match day 20 looking interestingly possible.

Don't know if the xl I'm looking at now is real or not, but it seems partey will be playing RB and Sterling will be starting ahead of Martinelli. Trosaard on the bench.

World class this, World class that, like the boy really needs outside validation. Whether he goals, assists or help 100% with defence, all he wants is to help his boyhood club raise to the highest point again.

Half a century loading. Saka is getting fouled but it is bringing threats grin
They better stop fouling our captain. PSG no understand wetin dey happen sha. Trossard>>>>>

Timber wants to make it hard to leave this XI compared to Cali. But it is good for Rotation sha. Tomiyasu and Zinny though. Especially Zinny

Someone even said something about mentality, as if fighting back to win with 2 goals after loosing a 2 goal led is mediocre. Leicester
keeper and the stat for shots can answer all that.
Ya gazie.

After the second goal they went to celebrate with Martinelli than Trossard. That boy don suffer and they know it. I hope his confidence bounce back better and better.

I just feel he shouldn’t be starting these cup games
Check the bench and you're see he's the best option to start.

Saka again?
He had less minutes on Sunday than the others

Arteta will kill saka
Martinelli should start instead
I am happy partey no start
I am looking out for Nathan
Martinelli that played 90 minutes against City, no nau. Saka had a less match minutes, less stress and strain than all our regular starting forward, so it's better him than King Kai or Martinelli

“It’s a great opportunity for any player to show what they are bringing in the games who haven’t had the ability to play much yet."
We surely will see new faces for our efl game.

This sounds something similar to Finidi George's 😆😆😆😆😆

Why will you say the boldened at all? The Auba you're talking about like this is the last to get golden boots for this club, twice and the last to score above 20. If he wasn't clinical enough, i will agree that even at that he wasn't at full potential then as he should be banging in 30+ then. We can agree on that?

Doesn't that buttress my stance, regardless of how many we keep scoring? What does this team need different from the last two seasons to make any flair, excellence and tenacity of City to Become 2nd or beaten at this long game?

A striker is one of that
Mature wingers in prime, not past prime.
Consolidation is all i need. Else we will keep doing things that has never been done before (wey dey sweet belle of some fans), but still measure up to 2nd best. I can't emphasize this enough.
Winning the golden boat doesn't mean he doesn't waste chances, he waste some and score some. During the times of Auba Winning the boat how many of our attackers comes close to his numbers?. They all focus on feeding him, and when he starts wasting them the team becomes clueless, except an individual masterpiece we will end with nothing. Fans complained about a change in the whole dependency and Teta took note. Now how many times have we ever scored the total numbers we did last season?, none. Not having that kind of striker won't make this team not to go far, shebi City with Haaland no dey play zeros?, abi na every match this heavenly made striker dey score?. If it didn't work today don't mean it doesn't work at all.
