Tactics I don't think we fully commit. Showed plenty of ability to counter two seasons ago but that was pre-control ball phase two.
That boring, basic fuck Ings is still around to piss us off?
Forgot about him entirely.
IBL — agreed on 2nd viewing
IBL since November 2022!
Biggest surprise today has been Jorginho and Rice lasting the full match. Didn't expect that when I saw the lineup.
Don Pacifico Jorg is our most underrated player. Comes in once every 5 games and never puts a foot wrong.
Don Pacifico we have no one else to bring on to replace them that's why
Jesus is a hindrance
Game of 2 halves, good result, let's make sure Saka and Ode get rested good.
Odegaard looks hard these days.
Nice chiseled face and heading toward the Bergkamp "I mean business" look
I love beating the shit out of West Ham. Let's make it a tradition
Good professional win. Thought Zinny did quite well when he came on.
Sicario2 it's not a question of his ability (I've always been a fan) but surprise at his stamina given he typically doesn't last 90 and has barely played this season.
Clrnc He has lost his swagger. In summer 2022 he looked like a street baller. Now plays conservative, confidence completely shot.
Clrnc yeah, I know that we didn't have any of our traditional midfielders on the bench but I expected Arteta to try something else out to give them a rest.
Ben White is good but Timber is world class
Gurgen yep. No slight on White but Timber is an alien
Gurgen Ffs, he’s very good but let’s not hyperbole
lorddulaarsenal I love Benny White to bits, but yes, Timber is a sensational footballer.
🥲
RocktheCasbah if both are at their best Timber triumph easily. He is way better in tight spaces and technical ability to be more effective for us as a FB.
Sicario2 how you can say this to, um, anyone is just.... 🤣
YOU were the one writing our season off after one game when Timber got his ACL last season. If he's not world class, why were you so concerned?
