Its purposely risk adverse. Because we're creativity terrible. Dani was ok for 2 months even in that time the only good final balls were over the top to bellers. Generally the midfield creates very little/nothing. And the forwards laca, auba create very little. And pepe will have one or two moments per game.
Arteta has spoke about the team being humble and his joy that Luiz spreads that message. Its clear he's considers or attack as poor so he tries to make the defense as solid as possible. Which makes sense but its gone too far. We tried a more attacking set up vs Leeds and villa but the chance creation is very poor.
Emery wanted to bring in Zaha who endlessly present throughout the game. The board overruled him and brought in Pepe. Their was articles arteta wanted auour but edu +co wanted partey.
