Raheem Sterling (30)

Could also call it Raheem floating (around the pitch) like a dream.

I was wishlisting him in swap deals with Sanchez years ago on ‘that other’ Arsenal forum.

Always been a huge fan.

Why hasnt he started a game yet other than league cup ?

Is he injured or not good enough ?

He was never gonna start for us, was only brought in as an option

I keep forgetting that we signed him. Hope he will prove his worth soon.
I’d start him and Jesus vs Southampton. But i highly doubt Arteta will do it.

I wouldn’t blame Arteta tbh, Jesus would just miss a ton of sitters anyway.

Raheem, yeah I think he deserves a chance.

Not blaming Arteta at all. Just think we can afford starting them vs Southampton at home. Get their confidence levels up.

Saka and Martinelli played 90 mins. Just unnecessary to give them such significant minutes.

Lads, we’ve only just entered October.
A player is benched or doesn’t get a much time for a bit and immediately they’re out of the team or they’ll be gone in the summer.

Relax, everyone’s turn will come. Season is long and there’s plenty of games still to play, even more if we want to go for all 4 trophies.

Having said that I was surprised he didn’t get on last night but think we might see him start this Saturday

Same with Nwaneri too though. And both of them were the first two subs against Leicester.
Context is important.

Jesus better start playing like a team player then if he wants more minutes.

At the moment he’s selfishly giving the ball away when he comes on/trying to 1-man team his way to a goal.

He used to be selfless even when not scoring, which was contributing a lot to the team.

You are attacking some weapons grade shit post fuel on OA here :gabriel:

Jesus has always loved to dribble with the ball. He just doesn’t seem to be as effective with it at the moment.

Ultimately I think the injuries may have just taken their toll on him which is a a shame before pre-injury Jesus was my favourite attacking signing we’d made since probably Ozil.

Sterling will start plenty of games for us. What an option to have.

It’s Sterling’s son coming out as a mascot with Saka vs PSG.

Disaster of a first start for us in the PL.
Should be on the scoresheet and then he gifts them a goal.
