Arsenal XI: Raya, Partey, Timber, Kiwior, Tierney, Jorginho, Merino, Nwaneri, Sterling, Trossard, Jesus
Subs: Setford, Saliba, Gabriel, Kacurri, Lewis-Skelly, Odegaard, Saka, Martinelli, Havertz
Don Pacifico Timber at CB feels like someone we should be resting. Good to see Jorginho, Merino and Sterling getting minutes (as well as Ethan).
Weird back 4 for a bunch of reasons.
Qwiss yeah. Timber needs a rest. Saliba doesn't. Happy to see Tierney again. He has a part to play this season.
Strong enough team for the most realistic trophy of the season. Let's go
Clrnc I don't get this selection combined with the Everton game. So we tested Partey in the league so he could play right back tonight? Just play Heaven or someone instead.
Go Ethan!
Qwiss we don’t have defenders. We have midfielders. Partey leaves us blunt on the right, but I’d rather we rested some defenders today. Arteta is juggling.
The consistent thing is Tomi is always out. We should buy him out and move on end of season because he isn’t offering any relief to anyone
Looks like MLS owns left back for now. Absolute credit to him. I’ve been impressed with his character on the field.
Claudius
Was so impressed with his bravery with his positioning and on the ball. One of the few players playing passes into the middle.
Claudius Arteta is juggling.
Insert "dropped the ball" comment here.
goon
It does kind of make a mockery of some of the reasoning I came out with behind not playing Ethan though…
What did I say the other week, Kiwior is a weed. Doesn't have the aggression to play CB in England.
I thought Kiwior was better at CB
Claudius I thought Kiwior was better at CB
Nah, his best spell for us came at LB.
0-1 Palace. Huge mistake by Kiwior, don't think we have 2 goals in us with no Saka
What a joke
Expect better than that from Kiwior
Kiwior always got these mistakes in him.
Thought the game was at 8, guess I haven’t missed much.
Instantly i already love having Tierney overlapping. So dangerous.
Jesus has no power in his shot
