Was pretty ordinary with Watfordās 2nd goal today.
Really do like the bloke though and has had a very successful first season at us thus far.
Thatās why you donāt trust Brighton fans either. 
Yeah, itās weird one.
Most of the time itās like āyeah fuck you guys, itās just sour grapes we signed your playerā but otoh one podcast had a Brighton blogger on who obviously watched way more of White than I did, so maybe Iām the asshole for not taking their analysis on board.
The weird thing is the talk this summer was all about his passing, which is good but his defensive work has been top notch for me. Heās more than just a āmodern centerbackā for me.

This is where sometimes being a neutral from the outset helps. Thereās also the fact of what a Brighton fan wants from his/her CBs and what a top 6 fan wants from his/hers.Whenever I saw Brighton last season, it wasnāt Webster, Dunk or Duffy that shined through, it was Ben.
The way he carried himself in that pitch, the calmness in his play and drive to progress the ball was eye-catching for me. His awareness and ability to read situations was also there.
I remember stating it in the summer and getting some flack about it, but Ben was certainly someone who Pep would have an eye on and would probably end up at City if we didnāt skip the queue and got him before he blew up.

Sounds like a firm you hire after picking up a DUI in college.
Wasnāt the goal scored down Gabrielās side?
White was the last defender was competing against Sissoko, but yes it was down the left hand side of the defence.
Short of blaming the entire structure and wondering why Xhaka is in between Gabriel and White, it should be a 100% preventable goal by White. He just gets it wrong.
Poor defending on the second goal but heās been solid more often than not. I think heās afforded a screw up.

Iād say heās been excellent for 80% of his games with Arsenal; a lot better than āsolidā.

Sure, I mean solid in the same way a wall is solid as in heās been a wall at the back.

Yeah, I donāt disagree the challenge itself is poor. The point I was getting at was that Gabriel was probably to blame as well for allowing Sissoko to get into that position, which you basically touched on anyway.
I love how the backline sits together.

That was a brilliant tackle on Maddison in the box yesterday.
I would have loved to see that Rambo-esque heel flick he tried find a corner.
He still has some maturing to do as a defender but I really couldnāt be happier with how this purchase has worked out so far.
In a just world, heād begin getting some starts for England and a chance to stake a claim ahead of the World Cup. Unfortunately weāre in Southgateās worldā¦

Got that job just a little to early and it derailed his potential as a top coach.
Obviously the way he left destroyed him but he was fresh and positive coach in the making.
