Nah he's primary responsibility is to attack, drive at defenders and provide opportunities for other
Why did we release Tierney if we want to be spamming crosses because that's what we complain about Tierney apart from his injuries

Ok

dominique:
Meanwhile I hope this global ambassador role Arteta just got at under armour won't affect his coaching activities. The description of the role is something similar to what Jurgen Klopp is doing at red bull and he left coaching to focus on it.

he didn’t get the role before he left Liverpool.

You need to understand that Eze's primary position in 8 and 10, so is odegaard and Nwaneri who was promised more minutes in his natural position, and we still have Kai who can also play as 8. Dowman is still in his break out season and knowing Arteta he won't rush him, but surely he will get playing time. We need a right wing backup, regardless of Dowman and Madueke offers that. Even if either of Martinelli or Trossard leaves, he can also play there. The signing is as important as getting Eze. They checked what they considered as priority and went for it first.

Talking of primary position, Madueke own is as a RW, he has zero G & A for Chelsea as a LW... For Eze, he played mainly free role for Palace and as a LW for England to accommodate Jude, the reason why Palace are so deadly is interoperability of Sarr, Eze and Munoz you will find any of them across the frontline interchanging behind Mateta...

If it's about primary position and rigidity White, Timber would not be at FB and Rice would still be no 4 instead of no 8 plus Henry would be a LW instead of being world renowned no 9 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣.....

I will not be against him spamming cos those early ball when defenders are not set might come in handy, it's helps Barca last season when Raphinha was moved to LW, it depends on the quality of crosses or pull out...


It's one of the advantages of not using inverted winger, the early ball from Madueke created the header against the post fot Gyokeres in the last game

Bro not Everytime
At least beat your man, not collecting ball and next thing cross

He must have known it was in the world, that's probably he chose not to extend his Liverpool contract

in Arsenal I think one of the major reasons for signing any player is versatility. Unlike wingers, the midfield is already choked and we only have THREE 3 notable wingers. Guy did you watch Arsenal vs PSV last season?, we had Tierney and sterling as wingers. Common man, no dey downplay the signing cus you don't like the player and turn around to say it wasn't important. Chelsea made the deal easy for us and that it why it didn't take much to get him. For how long have we been negotiating with Palace for Eze ?, or we should just give them the money because we have it?, field football aside, this is still business. Madueke was signed as a major back up to Saka and same time to provide support at the left side too, he played 7 matches as a lw and scored zero goals, so that makes him bad?. In the match against Liverpool where he played as a lw, he got 7.6 rating, against man utd he got 7.0 rating as a lw. So tell me how that is bad?.

How is the bolded difficult to understand bro?
This is a simple detail a little kid who watch Arsenal matches will understand. Dowman is still developing and Nwaneri is not a winger... At least from all indication.

it's all because he was signed from Chelsea. We got a a better Madueke with epl experience for a break down fees and only made about 14m up front, but Chelsea got Gittens for a fixed price of 48m and somehow it is a bad business for us and Gittens deal would have made more sense to some of us fans. Madueke wey his few minutes as a lw was more than what Martinelli offered before he was subbed against bilbao.

Have never said Madueke is a bad player but better players are available in market with better outputs with same price range... Trust me if it's about versatility, Eze is more versatile and productive than him ( he can play as RW, LW, Free role, no 10 and ...


Am sure you can't even be he will start ahead of Nelli and Tro.... He increases the depth but not the team overall quality like Eze or Rodrygo would do

Baba speak for yourself on the bolded. Eze florish in a free role more and that is not even arsenal game. Saying other good players are available for the same price tag is not just right and fact(you can mention a few if you think so). For one i was all in for maddison till we got odegaard and I had no excuse than to support him, and today he lifted our game so greatly, same with white. Once you're an Arsenal player I have no choice than to support you, because I love my team and want to see them prosper. Of all our wingers search this season only Madueke had a less amount to be paid for and willingness to join. Madueke na baller, you're free to drag me when his output is rubbish, but if he turns up, just take your L and move on.

Up until xhaka left, Martinelli wasn't a touchline hanging winger. Maybe, just maybe the reason for his only crosses and only trying to cut in at the edge of the post is according to Arteta's instructions. Saw Madueke did same against bilbao too(alas more effectively).

Bro, once a player becomes part of us, he has my full support. All these back and forth na waste of time.

BTW did you see the training clip where Havertz was outrunning Gabriel to score? Be like say na body double dey part of our team now cos me I don't understand o.

na wetin healthy competition brings. And he knows he have to turn up better than last season if he wants silverware.

Well, good for us. E remain Martinelli. I still think our tactic is not helping Martinelli. He needs that freedom to roam, to switch and to sprint. He is not a regular touchline winger. With Gyokeres, I hope Arteta switch things up. More fluidity and interchanging.

Don't be triggered 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣.... You talk about Versatility, Positions, Price tag and Productivity ...none of this points can you prove that Madueke is near Eze qualities or level, you are even dragging me go "willingness route" just accept your manager signed who he wanted and not who is a better player which is glaring ...

When not if he put on the jersey, I will support him (that's my emotional side) but the jury is still out on him

"don't be triggered" bro na you know how you take dey read the comment. Your emotion is high and no matter what anyone says, it won't make sense to you. You will always find a way to shift the goal post.
Shalom.
Madueke na Arsenal player and Eze is not, and probably won't be(with spurs putting up energy than us in his pursuit).
Ps: u no later mention the players better than him in the same price range oo. And no be me "drag you for any willingness to join", na talk i talk but you want to play an emotional game and make it look as such. I dey with bro, na talk we dey talk no dey shift post to claim agenda.

So Eze eventually chose spurs over Arsenal. I don't blame him though, he'll eventually pick the club where he'll be guaranteed a first team position over one where he'll be added to the squad depth. I wish him all the best and hope and pray he doesn't become another Harry Kane to us

If you good you are good
Our coach saw him but went for madueke
Let's see what the season brings

Matchday..!!!


The Boys last training exercises... Hope they feast

This match is a draw, nothing wey anybody wan tell me ..

That's why Arsenal fans launched attacks at Arteta and Madueke. They were expecting Gyökeres and Eze, he went to bring Madueke. Not that Madueke is that bad, Eze would have been better. I hope this decision won't come back to haunt us if Eze decides to go Harry Kane on us. Arteta is now going for that Korean PSG player who is a right winger that can play on the left. What's the difference between that one and Madueke now?

Chinko players don't excel at arsenal, the record is there
That's why I am not bothered we didn't bid for mitoma

Hopefully arteta starts with this lineup
Raya
White(RB) saliba (rcb) gabu(lcb) calafiori (lb)
Zubi(dm) Rice (dm/cm) double pivots that inter switch
Odegaard (am)
Saka(RW) gyokeres (CF) Trossard(LW)

Even with the deficiency at the left wing, I am more than confident that this squad will deliver this season.

Trossard is on his way out,he won't be listied in today's match. Nelli will most likely start on the LW

Both Eze and Madueke has not play a single match for Arsenal yet some believe Eze is the better player.

Reminds me of Maddison and Odegaard saga then. Well, everyone is entitled to their opinion and that should be respected. It's the season opener today, let's get behind the team.
