Preston vs Arsenal (CC) 0-3

It’s Preston in the Carling cup. All I’m saying is, I don’t wanna see more than 1-2 first teamers in this one.

Lads, it’s the lilywhites

Timber traveled too

Don’t wanna see Timber or Partey involved at RB. They need wrapping in cotton wool ahead of Saturday.

I can only see this game ending in a draw since both teams are invincible.

The fuck is load management lol

I hope same considerations are taken for Havertz and Rice too.

The team bus couldn’t handle anymore passengers

Load management? Is Benjamin watching his 40 degree wash instead of playing?

White had a recent injury / issue didn’t he?

Can’t see why Havertz and Rice would have that kind of consideration.

Raya
Timber
Kiwior
Saliba
Lewis-Skelly
Jorginho
Rice or Merino
Nwaneri
Saka
Sterling or Jesus
Havertz

So did Havertz.

Rice is moreso a concern of mine though.

Do we have no youth in our academy?
I would be annoyed if our players are not perfoming against Newcastle, Inter & Chelsea because of this match.

The likes of Kiwior, Sterling, Jesus, Nwaneri, Jorginho, Lewis-Skelly need gametime. Even Merino is fine but I really don’t wanna see Saka, Martinelli, Timber in this match.

Saka, Timber Havertz should be getting the night off too, even Rice should not be featuring here much if at all.

Havertz has played every minute in the league and CL, this shit isn’t sustainable

White missed several games. Havertz missed maybe one. I’d be surprised if resting Havertz for that reason has even occurred to Arteta.

Which is why he should be rested

people just forgot Kai had knee issue before the international break, and his form dropped a lot after that.

Cool. I’ll let Arteta know straight away.

American sports term, fancy unnecessary term to basically say resting a player.

Not just about rest, everyone needs minutes to be up to par.

Jesus up front, sterling and nwaneri should all start.

Don’t care so much about the rest but would give timber the night off.

Some think you can barely play squad players then chuck them in in limited minutes and expect them to be the difference.

Like this shit is a video game with health boost packs at the ready

Laughable
