Arsenal (H) - Wed 26th April, 20:00 | Pre-Match Thread

[WestGorton]

The danger from Arsenal comes from their SERVICE in and around the box. Snuff that out and I just don’t think they can trouble us through the middle.

The second and third runners, especially to the far post, have always been our Kryptonite, because our midfield has traditionally not been the scrappy, hustlers who snap at your heels, so that runner often goes unfollowed and unchallenged.

Arsenal “crash the box” with bodies, so if you can stop that service into the box from wide, you can expose them on the counter and attack their vulnerabilities.

Yes, Jesus is a good player. However, much like Haaland (and every other striker!) if you cut off his supply, you nullify 95% of his game.

Crucially, Haaland is a better goalscorer than Jesus or anyone else who ever lived.

Don't you think it's a bit rich demanding match goers clap when they're told, by someone who won't even be there.?

give it a rest stoner
the mans just asking for a show of respect for a fellow blue
if you dont want to join in then dont.
why do you feel the need to attack a fellow blue?

ake training

Just saw the video. My first thought was that this is old training footage. Is it confirmed that this is recent?

Any way of knowing if that was training today?

If that training footage is new then it looks like Ake is fine, closing down in that short space wouldn't be possible with a hamstring injury.

To be fair to Jesus it's difficult playing football in sandals :-)
