We can 100% get something at Etihad

Spuds still top of the bravery table, right?

God damn, Saka has the most tackles in the league for us this season. We are so blessed to have him.

If we ever play a back line of Tomi, White, Timber and Kiwior, who will play centre, right back and left back? Like you could play any combination.

Beating 4 out of the bottom 5 and a Turkish team means they are better than us apparently. Do you ever learn?

Give him one zoom call with Arteta, he terminates his contract and takes a 99% pay cut to join us. Trust me.

He also doesn’t offer anything near what Mane and Firminho were doing in other parts of the game. Link-up, creating space, runs, pressing, tracking back etc.

He’s not the one to replace either of them. And when Salah goes, he won’t replace his goals/assists output either.

Drop Foden for England. Guy offers nothing.

Saka assist then a Rice goal. Arsenal players carrying England.

Rice goal disallowed for some bullshit

Ugh… Saka has been subbed on to get Gareth out of jail again. Wanted him rested.

Declan Rice + Arsenal shirt + champions league badge on the sleeve. Christmas present sorted.

Well it’s either that or listen to Martin Tyler falling asleep

Mercifully our fixture list doesn’t look too bad until we play Liverpool in late December. Nketiah can handle that. Also means he misses the International break after the Burnley game.

Jesus when fit will start over Eddie. That’s just who Arteta prefers.

Also, Eddie probably won’t be averaging those goals over a season. Only 2 goals before the hat trick in a lot of starts.

Chelsea didn’t predict it

Because players have different strengths and abilities. Martinelli is not as good as Saka holding up the ball and creating chances. I’m glad we have different kinds of threats.

And an assist against liverpool, goal against spurs, but the more important point is he has still played will in big games without a goal or assist. Like the 3-2 win v United.

So aside from all those examples where he played well, he has played poorly. But we can say that about any player.

Reactionary takes like this are just beyond dumb. Joint top scorer for us last season, including some in big games. Ridiculous to say he isn’t one of our best players.

And potential banana peel games at Palace and Everton, and plus we haven’t played the promoted teams.

Why is Villa v West Ham the only game on super Sunday? This schedulers seriously need firing. So boring.
