Konsa

Gazza M yep - our fastest centreback too

Qwiss

lorddulaarsenal no way he's quick as Salibaor Mosquera.

What a tackle on Rogers. You don’t get many of those clean taking the man and ball challenges these days.

JazzG

Thought both our CBs looked a bit off at times, played like this is the first time they’ve played together!

Konsa I get it’s his first start but Gabriel looked a bit ropey which isn’t on for his experience

Gazza M

JazzG gabriel was pretty bad in the 1st half. he was having one of those days where his passes were both drilled at pace and bobbling at shin height. put his teammates in the shit a few times. white was way off it in the 1st half too. both were much better in the 2nd half

Claudius

Something like 41/43 passing. Monster tackle. Decent effort. Mosquera should buy a comfy cushion for big games.

Meatwad

Claudius
why? that's the most open we've looked on defense in a long time and he's the only change. that passage of play where he couldn't head the ball and it went over him could have easily been a goal if the 117m man could shoot straight in that moment.

Qwiss

Claudius ahh come off it. Mosquera has been brilliant so far. Konsa will settle soon I think but that was a lot shakier today than Mosquera in the last 3 games.

lorddulaarsenal

Qwiss they are both quick but Konsa is very quick when he goes for it

Mirth

Qwiss think it was a reminder of how big a talent Mosquera is

Despite the odd shaky moment himself, I reckon Mosquera would get into most premier league sides as a starter - including Chelsea or Liverpool.

Claudius

Qwiss first start for Arsenal and going up Adam at a decent opine t. Shane knock it out the park but did really well. I expect Konsa to start next 2 games

Panda

Gabriel and Konsa need to keep playing together to build their understanding.

But Konsa has already proven to be an important signing for us and the quicker Mosquera is back the better.

Qwiss

Panda it'd be nice to have Mosquera just to give White some rest too.

USArsenal

Qwiss

Are we forgetting that Timber has been training with the first team for a couple weeks already? I expect to see him on the bench v. either Napoli or Soton, and getting some minutes to ease his way back into the team.

Mirth

USArsenal I’d be happy pretending he’s injured for another two weeks so he doesn’t go on international break!

Kel Varnsen

Thought he looked shaky. Slow and hesitant going into challenges, lost several important physical duels with Pedro, and didn't really do anything positive on the ball either (though nothing bad either). His positioning was also off at times, tracking the wrong man. Hopefully it's a fitness issue, but I was not impressed at all.

Gurgen

Kel Varnsen Nope, Mosquera has been much better. But it was his first start so let's cut him some slack.

Gazza M

he settled into the 2nd half, after a slightly sketchy 1st half from both he and gabriel. it was a big occasion for him

JazzG

Good way to get the fans on your side! The crowd loved that tackle.

Qwiss

JazzG was definitely still on his mind when Rice tripped him too. 😆
