Pre-Season 23/24

Clrnc

The way timber plays is so natural for an inverted RB. He will make that position his before long

USArsenal

FT... ends 5-0.. largest victory against MLS all stars. Expected a little more competition, but nice to see 5 different scorers and none of them were Saka. Haha.

Daz

USArsenal yeah I hate seeing Saka score goals for us too mate 😉

daredevil

Daz

Saka shouldn't be playing football and needs to be protected at all costs. He's our bubble boy.

Gazza M

we looked pretty damn good for our only 2nd game. odegaard looks like he's had his own pre-season before pre-season, so sharp and polished already. didn't expect to see rice get minutes today, that's a good sign he's not far off being fully fit. timber also looked good in his cameo, you can already see how comfortable he is with the ball in his own half.

goon

Gazza M

He's so good. Plays with so much authority and confidence now. Saw a lot of interchange between him and Havertz too, feels like they have the potential to really develop an understanding with the latter picking up good positions.

Meatwad

nice goal from havertz after being a meme all day. the kinda mentality i like.

timber mouthwatering possibilities. wow.

USArsenal

Haha, not quite what I meant. Was just nice to see others score also. Saka had a hand in the first 2 goals. 😃

Meatwad

they did give saka the all-star game mvp. 🙂

MistaT

Jerseys looked even worse than I thought they would

Qwiss

MistaT they look terrible on TV.

What position did Havertz play?

goon

Mirth

Left 8 for most of it. Decent enough, very secure on the ball and took up good positions. Main criticism is that he was a bit languid, needs to up the tempo a bit.

Timber impressed when he came on.

Sicario2 - Tier 1

Havertz is going to be Ozil lite for us isn’t he?

He’s prob going to divide the fan base the most this season.

JazzG

Sicario2 - Tier 1 I think he'll surprise a lot of people, reckon in big games in particular he'll be a key player.

Squad looks so much better now, with upcoming cup competitions we can still put out very competitive teams and be able to rotate many positions without a massive drop in quality.

goon

Sicario2 - Tier 1

I mean aside from them as players the big difference is Ozil was expected to carry the side, whereas Havertz just has to fit into an already very good attacking side and bring more to the table than Xhaka.

Gazza M

JazzG I can definitely see him becoming the unpredictable x factor in big games. his nose for space causes problems for any team. i think its going to become a question of whether his contribution over 90 minutes warrants a regular starting berth.

The attack is now looking like the weakest area in the team in terms of depth and personnel. Vieira, Nelson, Balogun and Nketiah are too close to the first team and need to be sold with sell on clauses or loaned out. Another wide forward and striker, and I'd say we are in tip top shape to be the best ever Arsenal team in terms of wins and points on the board. Perhaps, not trophies as Man City are just a cheat code.
