This game isn't on Rob Holding, but there's no way you can still tell me I shouldn't be worried about Saliba not being healthy
You can make a case that Holding ruins our entire game plan. We can’t build out the back the way we are used to. Arteta showing his inexperience with some of these tactical and sub decisions.

It’s over. Good season, young team.

Martinelli is good for 30 mins and just goes to sleep

Sick of Sakas poor body language and generally doing fukk all for the past 2 weeks
:manny:
I'm not gonna cuss Saka, but I could see benching him for a game. Get Trossard on. But I can also see Arteta not wanting to damage is confidence further

I'm a fan of his, but Partey really broke himself mentally after that error. Don't get me wrong he's a good player, but I noticed if he makes a critical error his head is not in the game. I think our main issue was getting complacent after up 2-0. Then I thought it was another week of Arteta getting the subs wrong.

I believe the last 2 matches are the difference between us and City because City doesn't get complacent when they're up 2 and will take the game away from their opponent.

A benching for a game might do him the world of good, breh could be tired as shyte as well, especially as defenses are send g two at him automatically now.

Well, I can say I at least enjoyed us being at the top of the league. I got to enjoy being top of the league, which i haven't in a while. Next season we need to be war ready

Not when you have Jesus in the side. Let him take it. Especially knowing Saka's history with them.

I've felt that way all season. But cot damn this team is weaker without Saliba.

Jesus has a horrible Pen record he has missed more than he has scored.
Saka has been consistent at Pens ever since the Euros.
