No loss vs Sp**s under any circumstances.
Despite it triggering Nuno's sacking and them getting Favre or Potter.
I would drop Auba for Laca permanently to be honest. Aubas end product is top class but Mikel refuses to set the team up to his strengths so I don't see the point in playing him these days.Needs to drop Auba for Laca for this one. We need his hustle.
Obviously disgusted that he even pulls on an Arsenal shirt, but as long as we win, I don’t care who plays. If we lose and he played a part in that, then I’ll go to his thread and honour my duties.Thoughts on your boy Xhaka starting this one?
0-2 Sp**s. I dont see where the goals is gonna come from our team. I can see a lot of huffing and puffing and Tierney spamming in crosses. But they have Son and Kane who are match winners.
The issue is we need a clean sheet. We have nothing in attack and sooner or later they will score. Also under Arteta we can’t lead a game agent opponent. So we will need them to attack for us to counter. But their manager is also defensive. In a match with little action and few goals. They are more likely to scoreThe concern I have is White, but with Tommy and Gabby in support I can see us handling Son, Kane and Dele/Moura. The key for me is having Ode, Partey deeper to receive the ball and hopefully get past their midfield line. ESR in support if required.
Haven't seen anything cohesive in an Arteta attack in his 93 matches in charge. Just occasional good luck in the EPL and the players taking out much lower opposition like West Brom reserves or Wimbeldon, but not with anything coordinated or cohesive.Everyone would have to step up and add goals but with the way Mikel wants to play the attack looks far more cohesive and we create more chances with Laca in the side.
I find it hard to work out if Auba's gone off the boil or if it's a coaching and tactics thing like you've described, but yeah, either way we'vee generally looked more dangerous with Laca recentlyI would drop Auba for Laca permanently to be honest.
