Ethan Nwaneri (53)

good kid, worth our investment.

17 years old but played with smarts when he came on. Calm and collected when the ball came his way

Ffs lol

Hope not.

I think it’s time we find out what we have with this guy

He carries the aura which Cesc Fabregas had when he debuted. Only certain players have that aura, and the ones that do, go on to have incredible career.

Ethan is him.

Ok let’s pause a second.

Camera panned to Arteta’s to Saka not being able to continue and he immediately said Nwaneri.

Old Arteta would probably go with Kiwior in this scenario and shift the team around.

Shows you the confidence they have in him. I wouldn’t be shocked if he gets more game time against Atalanta.

Do Managers and staff call players by last names?

Not sure but Arteta rarely does. He uses everyone’s first name or perhaps their nickname. That’s what it looked like he said though.

So something you’ve completely made up then.

How could you know this lmao

The first part? From pressers/interviews.
He always goes with either the first name or a player’s nickname.
It is very confusing when he addresses any of Gabriels, although sometimes he does add their surname.

GC Maniac is Reiss Nelson :joy:

No, the invented bullshit about knowing what he said when Saka was injured.

Not a lip reader mater but that’s what it looked like he said.
I may be wrong but why are you so triggered by it?

Saladin soon too please

Strange he didn’t make the bench. He did so against Brighton if I recall correctly.

He may have silently gone out on loan during the international break.
Edit: Wiki stays he’s still with us.

There was a Greek flag at the stadium, maybe @GC-Maniac was actually there and watching Arteta with binoculars.

“I’m not a lip reader mate”

If Arteta later confirms that’s what he said:

“Called it”

Followed by a tweet which doubles down on the verification followed by a hint of further unnecessary speculation:

I know there’s Cypriot flag in their stadium too so I had multiple angles covered.
