If I’m a coach I’ll tell my players to conserve energy for the last 20 minutes for Chelsea to tire themselves out.

Look at chalobah

Guy, you need to chill man. Garnacho is only 21. This is like being on the neck of a kid week in, week out.

He's not Rodrigo. He's not going to dribble past two, three players. But he's going to be direct. Being direct takes positional perfection, and that develops over time. Cut him some slack. He's 21.

Is that an assist for James

It would have been included if we had13 match winning streak.

Pep guardiola is ridiculous. This one will be hard to break with Maresca.

There are too many IFs in your analogy making it too overly simplistic. Some goal keepers are actually good at penalties while some are not. It's a skill/psychological issue. Petr Czech, Tim Krul, Dona, Sxchesny, Emi Martinez, Diego Alves, Kepa, are better penalty savers than Ter Stegen, Lloris, Raya, Ederson, Degea etc. The stats are there to back this up.

You also talked about execution and all that. The goal post is so big that some would wonder why players miss 1vs1 and penalties. If all players could execute(I.e score every chance including penalties), considering how large the goal post is, we'll be having cricket scorelines but it's not happening.

Check Diego Alves compilations on YouTube and see some of the penalties he removed even from angle 90°. If Martinez or Diego Alves was the GK for Palace or Arsenal yesterday, they would've saved 2 or 3 or force the takers to miss the target completely and the PK won't drag that long. Unsurprisingly, it's the team with the PK specialist(Kepa) who went through.

Same Kepa was also key(gave instructions to Lunin) when Madrid knocked out City in UCL via penalties.

Below was a penalty taken by Messi but Szney saved it. The still image doesn't do justice to the save and yeah, Messi isn't great at penalties but this was a well taken one that GKs like Llrios, Degea, Raya wouldn't get close to.

Rome wasn't built in a day.

Before Arteta you weren't as competitive as this.

It seems he is already becoming a victim of his own success with you guys.

Good coaches are scarce outside, learn to appreciate whatever Arteta is doing and also,

Don't be like Coogar who thought anyone can coach Man united and be successful after Sir Alex Ferguson is gone .

Today the reality has hit them nicely that most of them are even tired of supporting the club.

£150m was steal

Defending Garnacho goes against simple reasoning. You can’t love football and think Garnacho’s level is at professional level.

He is highly unintelligent, subpar ball control, can’t run with the ball in tight space , can’t dribble to save his life, poor passing, wayward crosses, poor shooting, zero defensive awareness, lightweight etc.

Dude has no skill because running isn’t a skill. Thinking he will amount to anything reasonable is just complete waste of time.

Trevor012:
Most of you are actually forgetting Garnacho is just 21, many years ahead before he even gets to his prime and he's definitely going to develop and perfect his finishing. He is already putting up decent numbers even this young. Amorim will never know peace for making us sell him.

pkasso:
Welcome back, bro.

BlueMann:
Abi Flamengo no train for PK? Missing four straight kicks is insane

Kudos to the PSG keeper, that's actually four saves
