🚨🎙️ Craig Burley on Mikel Arteta & Kai Havertz: “This talk from Arteta is nonsense, There’s another one in the second-half where the crowd got on his back, somebody played a beautiful little ball into him, sixty yards from goal, he had 10 yards to turn because no defender had got tight to him and he passed it back 15 yards and gave it away.”

“There is nothing in this Kai Havertz performance or performances that suggest that this player is any different, not one iota from the player who was performing for Chelsea. The only difference is he’s wearing a red shirt.”

“He’s still got no confidence, he’s still not influencing games, he’s still giving the ball away, he’s still not getting in the right positions at the right time. He made one or two good runs in the first-half.”

“But at the moment, there’s a £70 million burning problem in Arteta’s pocket, because, in my opinion, he’s going to have to drop him. Arsenal are a better side without him in the team.”(ESPN via tbr)



Jo.dera the bolded🤣🤣
That bolded is what I was always saying since first match. He's play is too safe and unambituous. Him own na just to deh pass pass side and back and nothing more. They claim his runs frees Martinelli but I'm yet to see any telepathy between both of them.

Imagine if na him hold that Viera ball to Nketiah ystdy, he would have passed back to white, white to Saliba and Saliba to Rice and that's how the attack would have gone. Then we'll start clapping that we're dominating Fulham

All na inverted tactic na. There was outrage when he started using Zinny as an inverted FB too last season. Las Las everything later worked out.
if you can dig, abeg dig and show me at least two monikers that were outraged that Zinny played inverted last season

You can’t say we are playing same tactics as last season because some players are playing out of position
Last season only white was played out of position
This season alone partey, kiwi, tomi, timber and even kaikai have all played out of position
Ok then

found this online and I tend to agree with most of the points raised.

POST-MATCH ANALYSIS: How Arteta's tactics cost Arsenal 2 point loss.

A good and excellent performance was expected yesterday but Arteta's tactics cost us points We should have taken it by introducing unprofessional tactics.

- The transfer error.
Arteta is now making a way for Kai Havertz and trying to make him become the good player he thinks he can be, he's trying to dodge blame from the board when he is benched or make him useless in the team. Kai's usage will keep giving a gap in Arsenal midfielders most especially in this inverting method he's trying to implement. Kai is now fooling Mikel Arteta with his work rate.

Kai can't even hold the ball for 3 seconds to build an attack or create a threat to the opposition defender, he releases the ball within a seconds trying to shift the blame out from himself once we lose possession. Arteta is now creating another Pepe situation which will cost the team and the expectation of the fans.

#gunnersdon
I don talk this thing about Kai taya and na wetin dey pain me. He's playing "make ball no spoil for my leg" football. Thank goodness cos I thought I was the only one seeing it.


When we were linked with him, I tried researching about his strength and what he can possibly offer this team as a Midfielder and all I was seeing is off the ball runs, dummy runs bla bla bla. I remember raising the point here that he's the only player whose strong quality is off the ball duties and that I don't see what he can possibly offer us in this our system. Spy then said na generational talent

There's a big reason Martinelli is always isolated and suffering in that place. No understanding compared with Zinny and Xhaka triumvirate he was enjoying last season

1. Zinny moving to Midfield is straining Gabriel


2. Gabu is doing two jobs at a time because Zinny is playing out of position



3. Zinchenko is not overlapping and this has affect Martinelli


These were some of the complains made last season.

Personally, I complained about Zinny playing against Speedy wingers because I feared that would expose us.
Fast forward, we perfected the tactic and we all calm down.

If Zinny and Timber were never injured, I don't think we would see Partey at RB.

Forget about the past looking unto a glorious future.

Shey na man UTD for weekend?, No shaking na there we go see if Gabriel go still dey bench no not. I can cope with partey at RB but you see the absence of Gabriel on the left hand side of Saliba, e dey week my heart anytime I see the line up.

Havertz no comment.

Jesus needs to start and Nelli boy needs to find his cool again, he just runs too much dis days.

Odegaard used to be cool headed all through match minutes, but yesterday I noticed he don de para small small, he now acts more desperate for attack than last season. Maybe the pressure to deliver something this season is high on not just him but the whole team in total.

I just wish they find themselves again.

Arsenal and Enyimba wan ruin my weekend but Milan came through.

If Zinny and Timber were never injured, I don't think we would see Partey at RB.
When Timber was fit, Arteta still played Partey at RB during our 1st match.

If he had played this his new formation against city for the community shield, we would have conceded more goals.

Let him play the team he played against city for next match:

Ramsdale, White, Saliba, Gabriel, Timber, Partey, Rice, Odegaard, Saka, Havertz, Martinelli.

Ziny will replace Timber and Jesus replacing Havertz... He can choose to start Trossad ahead of Martinelli if he wants.

Let's have a midfield of Partey Odegard and Rice.

If I see a lineup of Partey at RB with Gabu missing and Havertz in the midfield, I will not bother to watch the match, and I will stay offline for the duration of the match or just off my phone cos I have many ManU friends ready to mock me if we lose.

Na why I say bring receipts.

And if I remember correctly, most of the criticism was when we started dropping points(after Liverpool game and the matches onwards) and most just saw him as easy target because he isn't very good defensively reason why I was even defending him then

Zinny when he started and we were winning teams, I hardly saw any complains here. Moreover, most of us didn't see it as a big deal cos we knew that's what he was playing at Man city so it wasn't as if he was doing something new

I don't know why Mo.stob keep forgetting this point.

I don't care if Havertz starts as long as it's Cf, just get me my Midfield three of Rice Partey and Odegaard, and our standard back 4 of last season.

At least, if I wan complain, make e be only Havertz. It's tiring complaining at 10 different things at once

The thing is he probably said right.
We are suppose to be at the last stage of the rebuild.
The experiment stage should be minimal now or at least almost 90% perfected in preseason.
Only time is on Harvetz side. Time is not on Arteta side abi teta no tell harvetz say na this season we have to win any cup that is not FA cup or Carabao cup.
