It's classic Dunning Kruger, everything is always so simple when you're sitting a million miles away.
People are outright dismissing a fundamental concept of Sports Science, and thinking that because Arteta has taken a certain approach with other players, he is consigned forever to repeating that same approach with every other player, like as if he has no capacity to take a different approach or learn from his past, or that players at different ages justify different approaches. He did it with White, so he must do it with every one else. Absolutely zero considerations involved.
Arteta has presented a very plausible explanation for why he's being cautious with Nwaneri, and there's absolutely no reason for him to lie about it. What possible incentive is there in doing so? but accepting his explanation would involve admitting that perhaps the hasty criticism was misplaced, but we can't have that, so people keep digging even deeper holes, with absolutely zero evidence to the contrary. It's hilarious.
Ethan Nwaneri is two minutes shy of equalling Lionel Messi's total season minutes at the same age, and it's only fucking November.
