Next Willock
Not Hindsight but thought he should have started today.
Instead of Laca?
The question is over who? Itโs either Martinelli or Odegaard who gets dropped realistically.
Front four have been doing enough to retain their places for me. Not a knock on ESR but just way it is.
Yeah Martenelli for me. Just because itโs a higher skillset game for me and he has a bit more composure on the ball.
Itโs not a criticism of Martenelli. More that I believe he has more to give against them. The dominance shown in the first half and I think his contribution would of been significant.
Plus I really like him and Odegaard being on the pitch together.
Iโm not sure @Stroller, I think Martinelli offered that explosiveness and was very dangerous whilst it was 11 vs 11, his closing down was good and he had 3 chances to score on separate occasions.
Itโs nice to have 4 options though, the growth of Saka, ESR, Odegaard and Martinelli is all pleasing. Ages 20,21,23 and 20 itโs pretty exciting.
Okay whereโs this lad. Not started for a while now.
Even the sub appearances are very late in games. Something we donโt know on a injury?
tight groin
Arteta said in his presser before the match that he hasnโt been fit for a while now due to a nagging injury.
Ahh was wonderingโฆ canโt really risk him as we need him in our chase for 4th, but he is exactly the kind of player we were missing today to come on for last 25-30 min.
He lost his starting spot while injured and because of form of the three there heโs deservedly having to wait his turn.
Didnโt hear that. Iโm going to start getting concerned till heโs back in though. Just hope itโs minor and nothing serious.
His cameos have been rather disappointing if you remove the goals. Heโs certainly not moving like he used to a couple of months back.
Not playing again tonight. If he doesnโt get selected against Spurs we have an issue here. Thought game time would of been useful tonight.
According to the premier league app he has a groin injury
So I believe or maybe donโt. Sunday will tell us more.
