Luckily there's an international break so Eriksen will only be out there looking like he's playing in a legends/charity match for a couple of weeks:francis:

Arteta and this disjointed back line going to catch up with us. Eddie isn’t it, Havertz isn’t it, Partey at RB isn’t it. Play your strongest side and stop trying to Galaxy brain :why:

We’ve played two pretty terrible teams so far and our GD should be much higher already. People keep expecting Martinelli, Saka, Odegaard to fill on the stat sheet with goals like last year, and that is in no way something to be expected…it’s unprecedented actually

Figure out the team, start Partey where he needs to, put Ben White where he shined, and figure out the LB situation. You can play around with Havertz (:dame:) bc he is essentially Xhaka with more speed in this team. But this team thinks they’re better than they are so far and we will struggle with these performances

This Balogun decision could cost Arsenal the title this season imo. Why are you trusting Nketiah over a hungry young striker who just wants a chance

lol balogun is two years younger than nketiah and he only showed out in ligue 1. The same league where lacazette had 27 goals in 35 games last year. The same lacazette who couldn't buy a goal the season before in the premier league.

So you prefer Nketiah leading your line doing dumb chip shots?

The only reason Eddie is starting over him is he’s been here with the boss everyday since he was appointed. Balogun probably isn’t a huge upgrade over Eddie…different kind of striker for sure but he doesn’t elevate us if I had to guess. Seems like a counter attacking striker more so than the profile we need in the league and CL
