I think, when we had Odegaard on loan from Madrid, Sally asked on here, What do you think of Odegaard, Mikel seems smitten.

Howard Webb contacted Wolves officials to apologise for the non-penalty decision at Old Trafford. Week 3

Will we get the same apology?

While I understand, when don't get the perfect result, we need to find some one to blame, and if your choice Mikel or Havertz or Xhaka, ( I know he's gone) , these are the players we have, I think we have a great team, and a exceptional manager, personally I am privilaged to be entertained by this group of players.

I Will disagree with the comment about Arteta being exceptional, he has the potential to have that title but he has to do an awful lot more to earn it.

Sometimes I just don’t understand why managers try and alienate themselves from the fans, by playing weird systems or picking players out of position. If their plans don’t work, it normally always ends in tears. Of course Arteta is the manager, and he got us playing some fantastic football last year, so he does deserve some grace, but, in a post below, Ed14 lists the team we should be playing, and I reckon if you showed that XI to Arsenal fans, about 90% would agree. So I just don’t get it when managers go and do something different, almost like they want to prove they are better than everyone else, which when it goes wrong, the get the boot as they have already lost the backing of the fans. Arteta is not the only manager to do this, but I reckon if he keeps picking Partey as a RB, instead of playing him, Rice and Odegard as the midfield, while leaving Gabs on the bench, instead of allowing him to continue building what looks a great partnership with Saliba, and it continues to stutter, he will deserve all he gets from the fans, me included. So play the team all the fans want, ie the team that finished 2nd last year, but now with a top tier midfielder in the team, and leave those other players on the bench, including Havertz, who will be needed over the long season, and who will be better to bring once the team is already playing well.

Agree Epping but playing devil`s advocate was the team affected by a) Gabriel about to leave b) Zinchenko not fully 90 minutes match fit c) Eddie carrying a knock as cannot for the life of me come up with why we didn`t start with a true CF to take advantage of the extra Partey in midfield. Baffling but there has to be reasons - if it`s tinkering for tinkering sake there`ll be tears COYG.

Forced changes due to injuries certainty are a part of the problem Sussex, and hoping with everyone back we will return to normal. However playing a CM as a RB and leaving a first choice defender on the bench was 100% his choice. The obsession of having a full back step in as another midfielder is ok, but if it’s that important maybe it shouldn’t just rely mostly on Zinchenko, a player nearer the end of his career who is more injury prone. Maybe instead of some of the players we signed we should have gone for another fullback who is comfortable stepping into midfield?

Playing Zinchenko as an inverted LB also took time and was considered unnatural by many after the first few games. If we won at Fulham I don't think this would be remotely the big deal it's being made out to be. This experiment seems to be Arteta figuring out whether we can do the same thing with Partey at RB as we did with Zinchenko at LB so that losing Zinchenko to injury doesn't make us less of a threat. I would be surprised if Partey is not in midfield by the time we play a top 4 team.

My two cents.


6.) 29 Aug 2023 08:03:22
The Fulham result has nothing to do with it wire, it’s still a big deal, I get the idea but BW was just deal, his overlapping runs were key to how we played, TP isn’t fit for the RB position, if you are in that role you have to have an understanding of defending, TP hasn’t.


7.) 29 Aug 2023 08:52:20
I thought Ben White had a cracking season at RB and was extremely affective both defending and going forward. Partey is not an upgrade on White at RB.

If we really are going to go back to a regular back 4 v the big clubs then in my opinion it makes a complete mockery of experimenting against other clubs, 3pts v Fulham was highly achievable where 3pts from City will take some doing, again in my opinion we need to respect all clubs equally if we are going to finish as high as we possibly could.


8.) 29 Aug 2023 08:56:18
You have to defend from the front

Forward line does
Midfield is weak without TP
Defence is weak with out Gabriel

Last season the difference between winning and loosing the league was TP’s drop in form and Saliba’s injury.

I would like to see the wingers swap sides more often, and get in behind the packed box, and get the defence turning towards their own goal.

Our buld up is too slow, even the few teams that don't play a low block against, always have time to get every one behind the ball.

VAR, initially I thought it was good idea, the refs need help, especially from the con men on the pitch. But it hasn't helped, if anything it's worse. I watched a few cup games where VAR wasn't available, and generally the games were a much better watch.

From the same ref who gave Martinelli 2 yellows in 4 seconds.
