So now this begs the question, why hadn't Arteta played Reiss more?
Arteta is very stubborn and doesn't make changes until somebody gets hurt. We have to remember he didn't really start playing Martinelli constantly until an injury happened It's probably why Tierney is most likely done tbh because he ain't going to give Tomiyasu his spot back at RB sine White is there and Tierney most likely lost his chance at being 2nd LB for us to Tomiyasu

edit: can't forget the torture of having Lacazette as our striker last season and might've won the league if Eddie replaced him sooner

its a shame. we need to mix it up because the injuries are going to come otherwise especially with the world cup
no reason tierney shouldnt be rotated into the mix considering how versatile tomi and ben white are and how mistake prone gabriel has been. its ridiculous to be honest

To be fair, Reiss hasn't shown much in PL or Europa match situations. Even Eddie got off to a good start in Europa. This is Reiss' chance, especially if Saka is out.

He's put on a MOTM performance, can't let him become the next Gnabry

Now to be fair it's Forrest, but we've seen Arsenal take these matches off and let teams back in.
