Good changes. I expect Jesus and Zinchenko will come on. Still a bit worried about Kiwiors passing from left back, feels more of a centre half and in other games he started we needed Zinchenko to pick up our passing game. Guy needs chances though and now's the perfect time.
Qwiss Zin not in the squad so assume he's injured. 🤷
Also not massively excited about Kiwior at LB but needs games.
Don Pacifico he has a “calf issue”
Don Pacifico ahh I missed that. Not good news despite his poor form. We must be getting close to seeing Kai there at this stage.
Tomyiasu back with the squad, I wonder if he can get injured before the Asian Cup.
HomeSteak not sure why Arteta say its serious injury. Less than 1 month he's back already just a minor one
Chance for Kiwior to make a claim for that spot ahead of Zinchenko.
IBL I think it's unlikely. Seems a centre half to me but if he can cover at LB then it's a good thing. He can certainly defend I just don't think on the ball he's suited to it.
Eddie has looked sharp when coming on, but it’s a big boost for him to get the nod ahead of Jesus, even if it is just for a game.
Qwiss
You obviously didn’t watch the MLS skills challenge.
I think he’s basic but decent on the ball, quick, crisp passing is all you really need.
goon he's fine on the ball at centre half, has a decent passing range but he's not got the ability to get out of pressure at LB and start things they way Zinny and Tomi do. He's smart enough to realise it so just keeps it simple instead of losing it but it costs us build up options and speed. I think at CB his passing range would be more beneficial. I don't think Gabriel would be a particularly good full back either but he's a very good passer too.
Don Pacifico he was really, really dreadful though. I think his time is done.
Bring Back Kerrea Gilbert after 10 minutes...?
goon think because the next week is FA Cup and the next PL fixture will be during asian cup
Don Pacifico in Arteta's eyes, probably.
I would give him a run of games and spell Martinelli. But that type of thing doesn't occur under Arteta.
vamos capitan
Nice effort Ode
Good start from Odegaard. Love this guy. Only man who left with his head high vs Moyes
Great play well done Martinelli
