Kai Havertz took on a man on the touchline and beat him. It still feels like a mirage.

He would literally be what Jorginho is now

Partey, ESR and Vieira being out is a dagger. That’s a whole midfield.

We are deliberately creating less big chances?

You mean Arteta isn’t telling our wingers to stop taking on their man?

maybe he is determined to completely ignore the drama so it goes away

🎯

Because, as we’ve seen, any answer he gives will be formed into a narrative in the media.

Praise Ramsdale: Does that mean he should be starting the next game

It’s always the way with these ‘physical teams’ the bar for them is much higher in regards to offences because ‘that’s how they play’ but lower for ‘soft’ teams because it’s perceived as being overly aggressive. It’s probably subconscious, but it’s been a theme in English football for the longest time.

Wonder how long the refs goodwill towards Liverpool will last because of the VAR gaff. That was absolutely not a foul.

Saliba, Jesus and Tomiyasu should be Tier 1. Zinchenko Tier 2.

Didn’t know John Malkovich was part of the coaching staff

You haven’t encountered big brain twitter tacticos. Count yourself lucky.

Yeah man the guy who’s played there 3 times is better than the guy who got 22 G/A from that position last season.

they probably wouldn’t be able to play a high line

I beg your pardon?

He’s not even an option. Wild stuff.

Yeah maybe it’s better to actually watch him. Completely different profiles.

We lost 8 out of 24 games with Partey in 20/21. 4 out of 10 without him. Lost 6 out of 24 games with Partey during 21/22. Lost 7 out of 12 without him. This idea that he has been poor for the majority of his time here sounds like revisionism.

It should have been Ramsdale tbh. But I feel some people couldn’t reconcile calling for him to be dropped and then voting him as the best keeper.

We are playing Jorginho mainly because Partey is injured
