Might start posting on here again ngl. Too much dooming on twitter regarding Arsenal
08.12.2024 20:09 โ ๐ 3 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0Cunha has better output than ยฃ115m Isak, all whilst playing for a significantly worse team and having much tougher fixtures to start the season
26.11.2024 10:03 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0Weโre going to have to play Kiwor RCB and #5 at RB for a few games but apart from that, our squad is in a pretty healthy state for rotation this month whilst maintaining these same dynamics
24.11.2024 19:31 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0The 2-4-4 is by far our best system and what fit our players the best:
-Our best goal scorers(Wingers) are the highest players up the pitch
-All our CMs thrive more in a double pivot
-FBs are allowed to stay wide instead of inverting
-The CF and AM can dictate play from deep
Raya became a victim of our OOP success in 23/24, despite his contributions to this being big. Facing few shots led people to think heโs not a good stopper. But his Brentford days was evidence of his credentials in this regard. This season heโs just gone up a level in all areas.

NEW: Arsenal have a lot of hard games behind them and Martin รdegaard back, here's a look at all that, issues of late, some optimism and the need to now go on a big run: p1r.es/4fTs56r
For @arseblog.com
The return of Riccardo Calafiori will be massive for #Arsenal.
He brings personality, aggression and huge technicality to our first phase build up, and moves up with possession.
With Merino and Martinelli coming into form, we can transform our left hand side after the break. #AFC

I am going out on a limb here and making the bold claim he is pretty good at this and Arsenal have missed him in the team.
100 followers already. Appreciate yโall. Letโs build an actual community here
19.11.2024 09:04 โ ๐ 7 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0Martinelli- Merino- Calafiori pod- balance really can be that simple.
Wide outlet is a strong footed overlapper pushing the dangerous SS winger inside whilst the progressive second ball winning CM sits to protect the space.
Weโve been robbed of this.
He doesn't suit this iteration of Arsenal much low-key. This style of stable dominance, with methodical progression through the wings is actually anathema to the things he happens to be good at. His entire thing is beating that first line of pressure and spraying it to someone in transition 1/x

The closest approximation to Camavinga on the market.
You donโt have to sacrifice legs in your DLP scouting- having the left footed CM that drops outside the middle third with his vision + ability to receive in the block.

These games getting nothing at The Game Awards is criminal

I donโt think any DLC should win but only making that exception NOW after those two got nothing feels like FromSoft bias, whether it actually is or not

18.11.2024 16:41 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0He played there last game with Ode back so donโt think weโll have to worry about that anytime soon but I worry heโll go for Gabi Jesus CF-Havertz RCM if Ode were to go down again somehow
18.11.2024 09:37 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0Trossardโs injury might be a blessing in disguise:
LW- Sterling gets more game time off the bench/when Nelli ainโt available
AM- Nwaneri gets more game time when Ode isnโt available
Only downside is that Gabi Jesus is a worse CF than Trossard and now heโs next choice if Kai goes down
Good teams donโt carry average players. Great players look at home in great teams. Bukayo Saka carried #Arsenalโs worst team at 18, and at 23, is the star of our best team in 20 years. Respect is earned with consistency and he has done it for club and country. World class. #AFC
