I believe in "if something isn't spoilt, there's no need to fix it".

If Zinchenko can do it against Richarlison and tottenham, then he deserves to start against Liverpool. I just need Partey to be fit.

Actually ehh, we need to beat Liverpool oo. Have arsenal ever beaten klopp since he came to England? Just once oo, and that's under Arteta 2-1 win
We beat them via penalty in the community shield.

Liverpool are not that strong again. I just pray Tiago doesn't play. Going by the match up, we suppose beat them this time around.

Tierney or Zinchenko against Salahhuh

I would go with Zinchenko.

Abeg...e don do cheesy cheesy
Thing is Xhaka and Gabriel were the culprits. Even Saka shared part of the blame.
A simple pass from Saka wouldn't have led to that goal we conceded.
Xhaka also failed to clear the ball and put he defence under pressure.
Gabriel made the right decision by challenging Richarlison if not the latter would have a free pass but his tackle was not good enough.

Make we die this matter and let's talk about upcoming matches especially Liverpool.

On Bolded 2, you believed he could have cleared that ball without fouling Richarlison?

Do you know what a technical foul is?

Do you know that a goalkeeper when one on one with an attacker if beaten is expected to foul the attacker and concede a penalty rather than allow the attacker to score?
Technical foul is only advisable when there is 99% chance of conceding a goal. As at the time Richarlison had the ball, there is still a sizeable chance a goal could be avoided. Gabriel went too early in the challenge .... That is my point.

At half-time on Saturday, Granit Xhaka is understood to have apologised for his role in what led to Tottenham being awarded a first-half penalty that Harry Kane dispatched to equalise. Xhaka failed to clear in the box before Gabriel’s poor tackle.


Copied


That should settle this.
settled

After making your initial comments bold-1, kindly explain what you mean at bold-2 undecided
Bolded 1.... His decision to challenge Richarlison was a good one. Richarlison could have gone ahead and score or assist a goal.

Bolded 2.. He shares part of the blame. Xhaka and Saka share too.

Jodera:
Anyone who watched even the highlights will tell you that this picture you just showed was at the exact time Richarlison is just retrieving the ball from Xhaka's mistake and at this time no decision was made from him to even think of taking a shot or passing cos he isn't even firmly in control of the ball yet.

I wish someone can make a gif on it let's all see. Immediately, Richarlison peeled away from Gabriel after controlling the ball, Saliba had already made the move towards him to stop any intention. No how anyone will watch the highlight at least and wouldn't blame Gabriel for such nonsense.

Saying the penalty giveaway is the best decision Gabriel would come up with is one hell of a funny thing I'll ever hear.
If Gabriel had not challenge Richarlison, it's either he score with his left foot or pass to another Spurs player. Saliba was far away to stop such. Gabriel made a good decision to challenge Richarlison but unfortunately he conceded a penalty.
Not absolving him of the blame though.

Jodera:
it's true tho. Valid lineup

Since Nelson have been training with the team and was even included in the bench against Spurs, I'm getting a feeling he would start while Martinelli alongside Saka takes a rest for Liverpool.

Xhaka is a strong man so I no go too fear injury grin
Yea...he is strong.

Jodera:
it'll be termed desperation and lemme tell you why. Last season, Holding was our only defender so it's normal for him to be called upon when we wanna close shop. It means that if any CB have injury, he'll be In line to replace him, so even if he starts next game, it'll be seen as normal.

Compare it to this season where Tomiyasu and Tierney have taken over his place as close shop masters. If we just meet Man city and you now put Holding who isn't a regular player(i.e coming from bench included), what message are you trying to pass to the team, and more importantly, what message are you trying to pass to Tomi and Tierney?
There are four reasons Tomi and Tierney have been coming in ahead of Holding this season.
First is Saliba is stronger than White.
Second is because of fitness issue. Both of them came in against Spurs yesterday even when we're in control
Third is rarely have we been under immense pressure to protect a 1-goal lead in a game so far this season.
Fourth is to keep him fresh for UEL

I still insist playing Holding in a 3 man defence because of Haaland is not desperation. It is more of a counter measure. Haaland is a big threat and preparing to stop him by playing Holding is not desperation sir.

Not DM
Xhaka is no more DM
Ethan is am
Viera should partner with sambi
The Midfield will be too lightweight. Xhaka in that Midfield will add steel wherever he is playing.
Maybe we should just play Souza at LB, partner Holding and Tomi with white playing DM

I'm not sure there is any DM among them. The closest would have been Azeez but he is on loan.

Jodera:
na Smith Rowe why?

It would have been Sambi, ESR and Viera as Midfield three
No... Elneny comes first. He is the direct Partey replacement. Sambi will play as 8 while ESR will play on the wing.
But as it is now, the lineup will likely be

Turner

Tierney
Holding
White
Tomiyasu

Xhaka
Sambi
Vieira

Nelson ??
Nketiah
Marquinhos

Putting Holding when he's not starting games with all players(defenders) fit will send a negative message to the group— desperation!!
It is just a suggestion but if Arteta considers it, it is never in desperation. It is tactical flexibility.
BTW, Holding rarely start games last season but he is always the first person to come in if we wan close shop. cheesy

So there is every indication Xhaka would play on Thursday and then play against Liverpool.
Elneny why?

Na the same way we put Holding on Son and after the match almost everyone wan crucify Arteta that day grin
First, Son and Haaland are different type of players.
Two, It was Arteta's fault, not Holding.
Infact I said it here that Arteta shouldn't put Holding on Son.

Not underrating City though but we have to beat the best to be the best.
I believe what Arteta should be working on for that game is how we can score goals.
