Chaaay AFC 357 Posted July 18, 2020 Share Posted July 18, 2020 Really can't see us getting through here, will take something special and we have to defend incredibly well to stand a chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chaaay AFC 357 Posted July 18, 2020 Share Posted July 18, 2020 Rode our luck early on but we've come in to it in the last 5. Superb goal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are just fresh from beating Liverpool and now they are leading against Man City. Not sure how long their lead may last today though. Aubameyang is a class act, there's no doubt about that.

Inverted 1,776 Posted July 18, 2020 Share Posted July 18, 2020 The pass from Tierney into Lacazatte in the buildup to the goal was quality. Doesn't look much at the time, but it pulls the whole City defence out of shape. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carefreeluke 722 Posted July 18, 2020 Share Posted July 18, 2020 Arsenal overloading the wide areas in attack, mostly on the counter or through somehow playing through the Man City press which happened on the goal. City's full-backs have been left isolated too many times when Arsenal have been able to switch play but they will have a numerical advantage in wide areas if Man City continue to defend like they are doing.

Inverted 1,776 Posted July 18, 2020 Share Posted July 18, 2020 I don't want to sound overly Brexity but Ceballos literally cannot run. His recovery sprint is like a brisk jog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Stan 18,378 Posted July 18, 2020 Author Administrator Share Posted July 18, 2020 Ugh commentators are so condescending these days. 'you need a modern languages degree to speak to players these days'. No you don't. Just some hard work and discipline and investing time in the languages your players speak.

Inverted 1,776 Posted July 18, 2020 Share Posted July 18, 2020 Arteta did play in France for a while, so it's not like he's learned it just to speak to his players. Footballers at the top level are quite privileged in a sense in that they are given opportunities most people can only dream of to learn a range of languages. Most people if given a chance to live and work in a country for a couple of years will pick up a conversational ability in that language even without intense study, and a football player can have such spells in 3 or 4 different countries in their careers. It's natural that the more intelligent ones pick up and retain language skills that would be seen as genius level for people in most other careers.
