Arsenal (A) - PL Post Match Thread

Both Alvarez and Haaland need to work on their touch especially with back to goal, if your playing two up, inevitably they will have to receive the ball back to goal, hold it up, lay it off...too often the ball bounces away from them...i thought Jesus' touch today was so much better than both of them...hmmm
Really?? How many times did we play crosses into the box or balls at their feet. You can count both on two hands. It was diabolical.
 
I have a lot of time for Alvarez. I have no idea where he should play. I suspect that it is exactly where Haaland plays and that is part of the problem.
 
Do we really have to be this boring to watch? Really? There’s no other way? We’re playing like we’re scared stiff to try anything remotely adventurous, but with a few too many players that don’t actually provide all that much control anyway. Does Ake provide control? No. Does Dias? No not really. Does Kovacic? Inconsistently. Does Nunes? No. Foden? Not particularly, he’s a free spirit. Does Doku? No. Does Haaland? No. Walker? Nope.

That’s what I don’t get about us right now. The relentless pursuit of control, control, control, with so many players that are not all about control. We could be really entertaining but it feels like we have to live off scraps and I find it more frustrating than ever. We won the treble… so let’s just play, be free, enjoy it. There aren’t many smiles on the pitch any more in the team for some reason. I don’t think it has to be this serious, we could entertain.

Should have taken Haaland off and put Alvarez up front for the last 20 min
 
50 mill Phillps gets a ton of shit. What has 80 mill Gvardiol done so far?
