Additional body in midfield as an option helps.
Luiz is fucking annoying today.
We feel more aggressive than our last three games. So I’m for this. We just need to start fashioning chances. Saka looks lovely. I’m liking Ceballos driving and distribution. We need to get Willian into the game because the right flank is inert again.
What is the point of Willian.
Willian is useless btw, barely gets a kick in this system
Willian really struggling
Looking pretty lack luster in this opening 20 minutes not really posing much of a threat and no real offensive plan. Hoping that Saka can make something happen seems to be the main idea.

Yep, we overload our left hand side so the switch to the right is on but Willian is not in the right position.
I like how Gabriel seems so calm always, even under pressure
Willian playing like Pepe.
Pathetic cross by Willian, wasted attack
We are so dire it's unreal

Willian can't cross, Bellerin can't release the ball. Such a disjointed move.
We're controlling the game at least. Just need to be patient and fashion an opening. Someone like Aouar would definitely help in a game like this.
Aouar and Partey would have taken us up so many levels. Oh well , cup runs and 8th place again.
I am all for Gabriel as part of the offense. He has a good variety of passes into different areas of the field. A ball to him is not a ball wasted. He’s sending balls to the number 10 spot and down the flank. These are things Kolasinac cannot even dream of
That touch from Willian. Shola Ameobi would have been proud.
It should be pointed out that Sheffield United aren't in the habit of over committing players forward and being carved open. Not surprising this game is a slog.
Willian and Luiz notably poor so far. Auxiliary right back Elneny, while a bit clever from Arteta, doesn't exactly fill me with excitement.
Gabriel is great.
