Did someone get to him many years ago to tell him to play mid so we could get him cheaper many years later? :joy:

Defending for both his goals was outrageous.
Still, looked really good, especially when he dropped backed into midfield. He was sniffing out danger effortlessly and was then twisting their players for fun.

Arteta should try 2 striker formation in Vik, Kai and/or Mik and we could score some good goals from header

Who drops out the team?

we need rotation anyway

Merino & Calafiori are the two biggest stealth signings in football.

They’re strikers/wingers masquerading as a midfield/defence combo

Both needed a season to settle in. Who’d have thunk it? 70m well spent.

Praying that Cala can remain fit.

Just has a knack of scoring. What a player to have!!

And he scores all kinds of goals from close tap ins, to difficult headers, to precision finishes. Such a great option to have in our squad.

:pires2: Merino is number 23…2 x 3=6…6 upside down is 9 :ooo:
