you people dey talk o. You think arsenal and Liverpool can beat everyone just like that.
Where was arsenal and Liverpool when Chelsea win the champions leave.
Where was Arsenal when Liverpool win the champion league. Someone is doing well per season mean he has become a big club. I don't argue with football fans. Been watching football since 1993, I once aruge with my late dad who told me Liverpool has been balling even before I was born. I don't underate any EPL team because have been watching football long ago and I don't take emotion into it
It's like you didn't understand the origin of the argument. I am even a Chelsea fan sef. Then someone came here to say that Liverpool hasn't faced any big team this season and I replied him that Arsenal has played Liverpool. Then he said Arsenal isn't a big team. Then I told him that based on current form, if Arsenal cannot be classified as a big team, then no other team can be qualified as such this season. Meaning that there is no big team except Liverpool in the EPL. That's the crux and origin of the matter.
Now the question goes to you without bias, is Arsenal a big team in EPL or not?

Well, this is week 5 and we are still going to week 38. Out of these five, they played Man Utd, Liverpool and City. I think we did well losing one and drawing one.

Our next five games are against Newcastle, Westham, Fulham, Crystal Palace and Burnley. We should get all full points against those teams which should take us to 25 points by week 10 hopefully.
I rep Liverpool 😂😂😂 not the near syndrome club

it's important game and important points that Arsenal will need that Arteta will flop. Even see the time he brought in Martinelli. He left trossard playing the game in both first and second half. Arteta is Arsenal problem
You need to know that some players are not good starters, they play better when introduced into games

trossard is one of the player that's not fit to start. He's a second half player.

What is there to learn from Liverpool? Even Liverpool parked the bus when they scored arsenal 8 minutes to the end of the game .

Even arteta will park bus if his team was the first to score
We are talking about current epl champion. And 5/5 win this season. And you say "what's there to learn from Liverpool"? I pity you sha

But do you know if gyokores has no impact on the team through out the season, it's on the board not arteta...
You are funny 😁 😆

So, the board is the one managing the team and dictating the formation and style of play ?

You pro-Arteta fan just find funny ways of making excuses for Arteta.

Make una continue 😆

HE SPOKE THE TRUTH. ARSENAL WAS FAR FAR BETA THAN CITY EVEN BEFORE THEY SCORED
I think you need to rematch the first half.

How were we better than city before they scored us?

We had no single shot at all for over 30mins. All we keep doing was trying to pass the balls in our own half without progressing forward. There was no creativity in the midfield.

So, how exactly were we better than City before they score?

Arteta is a very stubborn individual. Merino, Rice and Zubi combination doesn't work. Check the picture I attached.

He should start Nwaneri or Eze in the 10. If he will play Eze on the left, he should allow his LWB to always run down the flank so Eze can always drift inward as a left 10 or 8.

Arteta came to solve Arsenal's problem, but it looks like he has now become the new problem in Arsenal

Crystal Palace are on a 22 game unbeaten streak since last season. Teams that have lost or dropped points to them include Man City, Liverpool, Villa, Arsenal, Chelsea and Newcastle. I don't think we should be expecting maximum points from them o.

Being able to tweak ur team to suit your players is what determines how proficient and creative a manager is.

If he has to Play Kai and Merino as CF, e might not bother himself about a creative Midfielder cos those 2 players can drop deep, but if he has to play Gykores as a CF, he needs a creative midfielder right behind him.

Alvarez and Aguero style of play is different from Haaland's, but Guardiola finds a way to integrate those players in his team and play to their strength.

Arteta has all necessary ingredients, but he is not a good cook.

The earlier u know this the better.

yes I agree but tweaking the team to accommodate gyokores means there will be changes made to the tactics in which the player will be required to re-adapt hence causing an imbalance in the way they already play .. it's easy for the coach to make tweaks but it's not easy for the players to adapt ..

Arsenal is a free scoring side in which everyone scores or can score but now they have to feed their point man .. This is gonna take some time to get used to .

Gyokores is a poacher (stays around the box) unlike sesko that can get involve in the game .
.so when arteta was asking for sesko , he knew why ..

This is an absolute result i want and wish it do come to fruition.

But u see Newcastle, those guys dey give us terrible headache. I fear them more than Man city seff.

The rest 4 is what I can beat my chest that we do win them comfortably

If you watch the post match press conference, pep himself said Arsenal was the better side ..... Pep Guardiola: "I think the result is FAIR. It's a little, 'Ah we were close', but I think in general ARSENAL WAS BETTER."
U dey follow PEP with his talks. He is the boss of MIND games.

That is one of his tactics.

U are right about Goke being a Poacher, but Arteta has Eze and Nwaneri for that that creativity. We all saw the flow against Leeds, and Forest.

Arteta is just scared and too conservative to lead us beyond the finish line.
