How many of us noticed that Rice is not effective playing on the right side of CM? Zinchenko had to move accross to the left whenever he had to invert.

But this unleashed the beast in Rice and he too was able to cover whenever he had to.

Gabriel will play when Zinny is available

Nothing new gunners knocking scummies as always

Nelson Appreciation post ! 🙏

Nelson won the ball in our own half and played the pass to Viera for that third goal. He used the few minutes he played for us really well

Spy360:

Garnacho was off. You are arguing because you are not intune with the new offside rule that was introduced just before season started.

Now offside is decided by the legs and not the entire body. That is why Gabriel slant position is considered a genius act.

Again, that Kai penalty should have stood because there was a second clip on his knee that the camera didn't pick and Taylor was too hasty to cancel his initial decision.

I didn't see this in the new offside rule tho.

And aside that, the screenshot shared by Oba.Igwe, they used his head to measure it.

It was that quick pass both by Nelson and Viera that finished everything

Viera sha. That guy na real pass master for leg. He just needs to be strong on the ball and he'll be a very very good Midfielder for us. No wonder dem dey see am as one David Silva for colney

Maybe what he's saying every part of the body is now accountable for offside

That quick transition is what we miss from Ahvertz side of the pitch each time he has the ball. The guy dey just dey give Pepe vibes.

The rules changed. Now a player can point to a space in front of him and will not be offside, as long as his legs are on.

That was before, now it's the part of the body that can touch the ball.

If this was correct then man u goal against city shouldn't have stood last season
I am sure the offside rules wasn't touched this season

Tbh, all those new rules that concerns players are not even been executed this season. It's only the ones that concerns ref.

If the new offside rule was in place, then Garnacho certainly won't be offside. And also Van dijk certainly won't have collected red card last week.

Na just the stupid new rules of coach or players complaining or time wasting you'll see ref obey that one and start brandishing yellow card anyhow

Exactly

I personally knew how many attacks Havertz killed ystdy because he was uninterested in moving the ball in attacking area.

It's no surprise the first big chances we carved open by ourselves (which Saka missed) was when Havertz was out.

Our resident stalker is around

Roland17:
Glad to see a familiar back 4. Nketiah is in such good form, so I understand why he is picked ahead of Jesus. He would also provide that needed presence inside the United box. Also, if we need some fire power later in the game, we have good quality in Jesus/ Trossard coming off the bench.

United are going to rely on counter attacks and that would put a ton of pressure on Rice who is sitting deep alone because Havertz is not going to be of much help defensively and Zinny is not exactly great defensively. I hope we can close up the spaces quickly when United transition into offense.

In all, we need all 3 points to keep the chase. Liverpool/ Spuds/ City are showing they are all in the race.

You are a good analyst.

Did you look at that picture well?

Garnacho's leg was certainly onside, it was his body abi armpit that they claimed was off.

Also, it was Gabriel's head that was used in measuring the offside. Just try and look at the pic well and the offside marker of the respective players

Before rice's goal some arsenal fans were out of the stadium
Arteta should be careful, little by little fans will be losing it

Keane was assaulted after the game
Arsenal fans are becoming something else not good enough

E shock me seeing arsenal fans leaving. I even thought it was Man u fans sef.

That was really shocking sha

Which Keane?

Jodera:
Which Keane?

Roy the pundit
I know we don't like him but he's doing his job atleast he's better than the motherfvcker shearer, Owen and Neville

Jodera:

No it's not
We already agreed no excuses this season but our coach is making one by forcing kaikai on us
Without kaikai we will beat man u like 4 without conceding

Ohh.. okayy. I really wonder why Keane will come under insults tho, he hardly takes digs at arsenal consistently

Na Neville own deh vex me pass

True but Kai was out and we were still playing 1-1 and it's not as if we have less than 5min to play. Any more goal from us and we'll win the game

If we were losing maybe I would have understood.

Myabe the fans got carried away by their emotions cos I don't see any justifiable reason why fans should assault a pundit doing his job. I hope the fans are identified and punished accordingly.

Big shout out to the boys,
I was sceptical about the match at first especially seeing Harvettz in the starring lineup but thank God I didn't allow that stop Me from seeing the match

Fabio has being impressive the last two matches, I'll take an L on the dude if he continues this way,
Harvest lacks confidence on the ball, there was a tim in the match that I pitued the dude cause the confidence isn't there for the position he's playing. Arteta better integrate him slowly to the team.

Gabriel and Saliba combo is just so fantastic and I hope it continues and Zinch injury problems are not persistent so that Gabu can continue playing cause of that inverted role with Zinch(now that Timbers isn't available as he can also invert from the right so that Gabu can play his position when Zinch goes on injury).
Big shout out to Gabu intelligence on making Garnacho offside and his goal ruled out.

ODUMODU stunner just dey stun everybody dey go, dude just justifying his price tag and easily man of the match yesterday, was sceptical on the dude playing that DM role at first but man did that perfectly yesterday and his goal was fantastic (love those kinda goals especially from a new signing)..

Ekelebe Jesu the goal was what I needed to cook those scummies yesterday he made Dalot to SLIDE down the green pastures , and also to Nelson yesterday he was fantastic for that quick pass to Fabio to Jesus and to the net.

My Cappo he's truly deserving of that and the shot he took, I remember last season someone saying Ordeggarrd should keep taking those shots cause his shots are precise and accurate and seem dude heard from where he was

Well, it's just Scummies sha

Unto the Next.

We conceded through his error
We should be leading if he remembers how to shoot
All in all it won't be hard like this if he wasn't playing we saw it toward the end

I just watched the change in tactics arteta made immediately scummies scored, he doubled up on AWB by pushing zinny to the deep wide
And immediately it worked, kudos to arteta
I will praise you if you do well

True.
Na Havertz matter just dey cause all these problems

I won't be surprised if stat prop up about him winning most duels, most aerial balls, good off the ball runs and the likes.

First time I really enjoyed Arsenal match this season and it's not even at premium level yet
