LOL THE COMMENTATORS:
“Not sure why Trossard is arguing, the system is right there”
Replay plays
“Oh, it should have been an Arsenal throw”
You fucking muppets
Edit: I keep forgetting to double newline
Jorginho consistently being our captain is something I didn’t expect coming into this season ngl
It is disrespectful to hard working players that have been here longer. Saliba, Saka, or Martinelli should be captain. I understand he brings experience, but it just seems like Arteta has favorites.
If a player takes the mantle to lead, then they should be captain. Ødegaard was here shorter than Saka etc. as well, but he’s a fine captain. Saka took it from Eddie. Jesus took it almost immediately.
For sure. Longevity is an awful, awful reason to make someone a leader. Some people have leadership qualities and some don’t. It can be learnt, but not overnight.
STAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARBOY
At least 10 crosses and cutbacks from the left
Probably a tactic to focus that side. Makes sense given the age profile down there lol
Nvm not Navas this time lol
Can you tell I’ve barely watched the start of this game until now XD
So weird that the refs won’t even take back such as obvious mistake.
Because then everyone would know they got something wrong. We can’t have that, can we? It would disrupt the illusion that refs are perfect little angels who are never wrong. Unless there’s a clear error, in which case they’re only human and what do you expect from them?
Can fully appreciate Kai off the ball and I still think he’s good but man is he unlucky
Idk how he is 6 ft 2 and hasn’t received any of the dozen crosses Nelli’s made
6 ft 4, but you’re right he needs to make runs into the box as soon as Martinelli breaks the line.
Narrator voice - Kai Havertz was NOT to score.
Trossard going to open up space for Martinelli this match
Jorginho I wasn’t familiar with your game
A proper Arsenal goal that
Nelson goal, pls
If we guarantee top spot do we start playing some kids? I know it’s not Europa but surely we’d need to preserve as much fitness as possible, especially with how last year’s Europa campaign went
I’m all for playing the entire U19 team in game 6 if we win next game, our fitness is really quite dire right now.
Alright, so we play:
Ramsdale Cedric Kiwior Lintasa Sousa El-Neny Jorginho Havertz Reiss Eddie/Gabi Trossard
We really are somehow light in attack.
who’s lintasa? lol
also nah,
Ramsdale
Cedric Walters Robinson Sousa
Rosiak Elneny Gower
SagoeJr Benjamin ACDjust full on rotate, idc, risk nothing. Ramsdale and Elneny’ll hold it together.
I was just picking the most rotated side from our 25-man CL list. And as for Lintasa… I have no fucking idea, have they butchered Saliba somehow
Don’t see a Lintasa on the list on Arsenal.com lol, don’t think I’ve heard of one in the academy either
Also yours is probably more realistic tbf, but fuck me if I don’t want us to just avoid injury rn
I have no fucking idea where the site I was looking at. But then I looked it up and I found this!

They even call him “Saliba” towards the end of the article!
TIME FOR AN INJURY TIME BANGER
lol Ocampos has been on for less than 2 minutes
Havertz Havertz arghhhh what did you do in your past life man
