Pretty good on the ball few mistakes giving them good chances on the break but with the new players playing there first game for us it’s normal! Last third pressing is there but not good enough as a team Casablanca though surprisingly really good on the ball physical off it on the break looks like they could score Everytime!

Be a big big difference when we play with overlapping fullbacks replacing the wingers with extra number 8/10’s

We’re winning 2-0. If we’re going to try new tactics this is surely the ideal time to do it

Indeed although we’ve played this way numerous times with two 8s over the years-bit it relies on keeping the ball, and high energy out of possession…but of course there are reasons it’s not been great here.

Sorry forgot pep was god

He might know more than some bloke on here

So is this the end of the season or the beginning of the new one? Comms said Foden scored his first of the season then said Doku had his sixth. Fucked if I know

 

[LordG]

Can’t see the match, but hopefully Vitor Reis is having a good game so we can see start to see the end of Dias being first choice.

 

[EL APACHE TEVEZ]

Can’t wait to see R+R together

 

[wattle]

So so first half against whipping boys . Reindeers looks too class , cherki looks to be trying to hard Reis is still too raw at the back Rico Lewis is usual Rico Lewis and before anyone jumps on me for criticising him do you honestly want to see him starting in this team .

Fuck me you’re a fun dementor!

 

[CityDE]

Reijnders very impressive so far. Happy for Phil! Rico still doesn't really offer anything useful in attack or defense in that position.

It 2024/ 25 season

 

[I'm Blue]

‘Some’ fans need to realise this back 4 isn’t starting in the PL.
Godri will be playing.
This midfield isn’t all starting together in the PL either.
it’s far too attacking, hence why we look so vulnerable going back.
Oh and wait till we feed the Viking.

He’s a long long way off that

 

[Lavinda Past]

While i dont agree with paying it. We might be better off paying £85-£100 for livramento if hes the only one we want. RB needs to be adressed

I'd rather stick with Nunes and Lewis and save the money.

Livramento is a £30/40m player tops. Anything else is 'English tax'.

 

[RobinHood]

It 2024/ 25 season

Why not 2025/26?

 

[I'm With Stupid]

I always just Google the league table and if Arsenal are top, I know the new season has started.

 

[Mancini’s Pastilles]

I still think we will buy an out an out right back

Its a must

 

[BluestBlue]

This is how Cherki plays - he’s not treating it like a friendly, that’s just his style.

I personally like it, it’s nice to see a player not being robotic and trying to make things happen out of nothing.

So that’s how it looks when it doesn’t come off. He’ll be fine he just needs to get the ball more and find his rhythm

Oh look another one - Matchday thread home of the sad.
