Not to carry on the pile on but another big problem with Laca is his stamina. He was done after 50 mins, huffing and puffing like a legends player. Can’t afford to start someone like that, need guys who can give you 90 mins.
When I said I wish we'd 5 subs it's cos I knew he'd have to go off.
He has always been like that too, I think. Wenger used to hook him early all the time too when he arrived. Such an odd player, geared towards high workrate but can only keep it up for 45 minutes and then he's done. Worst pair of lungs since Joel Campbell.
I think he's getting too much shit tonight though. The misses were atrocious and pretty much in line with what you've come to expect from Laca, but Sicario is not wrong - he did score, and for the third league game in a row too. It's not against Liverpool you'd expect him to be most useful anyway. Hopefully we can get some good performances from him against mid- and lower table teams.
