He doesn’t make runs or stay in positions that would make him get good passes for him to finish. I don’t know how he wants to score goals when he is not found anywhere to get passes at the final third.
GJ is not in that team as a striker but as a false 9/AM

You will get frustrated expecting him to be in the box as that's not his duty.

Thats why he starts to wear out the defenders

The excuse you're giving are Short-terminism excuse. The fitness excuse doesn't even hold water cos these guys have played averagely 3 Matches a week, for weeks. Na breakdown sef we dey reason not all these fitness reason.

Roland talked about how Saliba season ended and when I read it, I was too shocked and angry to even react. Now he's doing same thing? What happens to priorities?

These boys should and can play. At least 2.
Nothing suppose concern us whether Bayern or Madrid used 1st eleven or not, na dem sabi.
The error you are making is thinking that not playing saves a player from injury whereas the opposite is the case.

Ask why Elneny suffered injury after few minutes of competitive football into the season?

I know a certain Bulama. He speaks Hausa which is the Lingua Franca in the North, but he is a Marghi man, very proud of his heritage. I've never heard any Bahaushe(Hausa man) call such person a fool just because he speaks his language or his name sounds 'Hausa-ish'

But this penitence is always seen with many from the South East who won't let other people be.
You are ignorant because there is a difference between someone who denies his heritage and the example you gave. An Ikwerre man is an Igbo man. Ikwerre is closer by blood to Owerri people than Enugu is to Owerri. So if an Ikwerre man doesn't know he is Igbo because he chooses to be fooled by other tribes then he is a fool.

Jodera:
Giving Fringe players minutes is not what I'm complaining about. Major players ought not to play at all.

What is Gabriel and Saliba doing there? What's Odegaard and Declan playing for.

And nothing concerns us concerns Bayern and Madrid. They'll always have a way to navigate in terms of injuries to key players.

Can we??
I was personally angry seeing the players you mentioned on the line up. But then the manager may have his reasons.

Knowing that he rested some players, may be he needed others to have more fitness or it's a strategic training regime, or it's the players that demanded to play, or may be he just hates losing and played a team that won't lose.

Talking about losing, a win would have handed us an extra 2.9m dollars. All these factors play a role in choosing a line up.

BlueRayDick:
Smh... undecided

So does Arsenal have the squad depth those two teams have? If injury happens to Gabriel and Saliba is it Ben white and Kiwior we will be using to face teams like Aston Villa, Brighton, Newcastle, Brentford, West Ham, Loserpool, etc?

I'm sure u know Bayern and Madrid don't have teams as competitive as the aforementioned in their respective leagues that will make it difficult for them to win their respective league trophies.....

Later when the players burn out or get injured when the league is getting hot we will be blaming tough luck .
Most of our senior players were rested. What's your point?

I was against starting Saliba and the Rice substitution. But then I am not the manager. May be those players demanded to play or they needed the fitness.

Roland17:
If you understand the logic then there should be no debate here.

The youth academy set up in Germany stops at U-19 in comparison to U-21 in England. That means it should be easier for U21 academy products from England to get first team opportunities compared to Germany because they are more mature physically and ahead of the curve in comparison to U19.

With that being said Tuchel has fully integrated Bynoe Gittens who transitioned from their U19 into the first team last year and has become a regular fixture. Who is Arteta developing or integrating from our academy?

The Bundesliga have 18 teams in comparison to the 20 in the EPL. EPL teams play 4 extra games in comparison to the Bundesliga. I imagine you understand the implications.
Nwanne, like I said, I understand your logic and there is no debate. I would even easily take your side of reasoning in another forum.

I agree that Arteta isn't doing enough to integrate youth players.

What I wanted you to see is that, this is our first CL in almost a decade and many of our senior players have not had the experience. Players like Elneny, Nelson, Cedric, Ramsdale etc. These players were considered ahead of the youths in that dead rubber game.

I cited Bayern and Madrid who have all players experienced in CL yet they played their first teams and ignored youth in their last games.

While we would love to see youth against PSV, if I were the manager I would also love to see some loyal guys have some experience too. Theirs would be their last chance but the youth still have their best lives ahead.

All I am saying (begging grin ) is, see reason.

I met a new junior colleague and asked him his name, he said Chibuike. I said 'Oh you're Igbo. ', he said no that he is Ikwerre.

I said but you speak Igbo, he said yes. I said how did you learn the language, he said that's his mother tongue. 'I said you are a foool.'

Roland17:
Today, in a dead rubber match in the UCL, Pep Guardiola gave senior debut appearances to 3 City academy players (M. Hamilton (20), O. Bobb (20) and M. Susoho (18)). Bobb and Hamilton played the entire duration while Susoho came in during the 76th minute.

Guess City’s position in the U21 table? They are ranked 24th out of 26th and Arsenal U21 who are ranked 4th can’t even give an appearance to any academy players in a dead rubber match against PSV. If this doesn’t sink or help you understand, then nothing will.

I have said it before, na pesin help you develop and integrate Saka/ Martinelli/ Saliba/ Nketiah/ ESR (limited by injuries) that have become integral pieces for you. Who are you developing and integrating into the first team?
While I am not arguing about the logic in what you have said, Man City is probably the only example you can give. I give you three clubs that had no benefit but played their very first eleven- Bayern, Madrid and Dortmund. There are more.

Arteta gave opportunities to fringe players who may never have such opportunity again in their life time. That's enough for me. The youngies will get their time.

Bayern and Real Madrid were in similar position as Arsenal and both played their first eleven starting and their subs were even older players.

Arteta at least gave opportunities to some fringe players like Elneny, Cedric, Ramsdale, Kiwior, Nelson, etc who all started.

I don't see Obituary getting the kind of support he got in 2023 again except if he marge with a strong northern

But Obi would repeat the mistake he made in 2023 again by not allow himself as VP to kwankwaso

No Northerners would vote for Obituary as president. Not in the nearest decades


History doesn't favour Igbo bcs of the agitation in SE.
The renewed shege did not make them wise
The high cost of drugs did not make them wise
The loss of jobs from companies leaving Nigeria did not make them wise
The lack of sensitivity in the budget for imported cars and VP residence did not make them wise
The dwindling naira did not make them wise

What has made them wise is Peter Obi not attending all the church programmes in Nigeria.

Sincerely. We should own our own bs and clear it instead of waiting for external help. We need to work harder to ensure this doesn't repeat. It's annoying. All their game plans worked. None of ours worked. Just imagine. We also need to stop this leaving it late to decide 3points in the bag. Let's sweat it out early and do all that tension early abeg.




And finally, it is time to get an LB in January. A Natural LB. Abeg make Yasu dey that rb abeg.

Tactically, Arteta needs to work and stop this plan of CBs dragged to fb regions while those FBs are strolling back like lazy kings.
What we need is a LB that can play CM not a CM that can play LB.

Zinny is good but not the calibre we need to imvert.
