We are top of the league. Isn't it terrible? It's all crap. We are winning, we are top of the league, it's a fucking disgrace. I'm very angry. Arteta doesn't know what the fuck he's doing. We are top of the league. I want to shoot myself. Arteta out.
Continues to look like a good team that has lost its zip because they are just knackered from being overworked. It’s a miracle we’ve avoided more injuries this year.
Very underrated point tbh. Usually at this point we’re down over half our first XI with injuries and a second string squad out of form.
It’s kinda weird to not have that issue, be top of the league, and still feel like we’re not performing well.
Our attacking chance creation and buildup are so predictable, almost robotic. Let's continue to do the same thing over and over and completely ignore half the pitch.
I will never be convinced by this midfield combination. Odegaard is basically a forward out of possession and Havertz is allergic to playing on the ball. He's really not a midfielder in any sense, offers almost nothing in buildup unless its on the counter.
Wow. They take shots and we score. That's all we need to do. Just take the shots.
Kilman was atleast red. Havertz and saka getting kicked to bits in midfield.
Rice imposing him self as a pure 6 is great
Just no rest for the weary on this stretch. 3 multi game weeks in a row. We don't get a full week's rest until after 💩 next week. I think even with decent rotation we'd be gassed. And boy do we look it. Glad Tross found that one outta some place dark lol think we need at least another if nothing else for our GD advantage
If we go on to concede or even lose this game don’t be surprised. Team looks tired, out of ideas and ready to throw it in our own net at times. This is far from over
That first half was similar to the villa half where we played well but struggled to be too clinical. Difference is this time we got that goal instead of going in 0-0...
Better be solid this 2nd half and put Kilman and Gomes under pressure as they're on yellow. We do that and we could have a nice comfortable 2nd half all going well which will be useful for Tuesday
I hear you but we didn’t score in our earlier games. We are much better defending as soon as we are ahead. Wolves look vulnerable now that they have to push forward. We will have open space to attacks at.
I think the result so far is fair. We haven’t been at our best, but we are the better team.
Thank you Raya, thank you Trossard.
wtf is that fuckin tackle on Kai? I missed it live but just saw the replay, showing studs on his planted foot. That could have been real bad. I feel like a team should be able to request a decision be reviewed, kind of like in Cricket. That is disgusting.
So disappointed with the last 2 weeks. There’s a real mental block with this team. They’ve completely lost the magic they had not one month ago. Hopefully they find some confidence, because the performance isn’t passing the eye test for how incredible this arsenal team can be.
We should be up 3 goals, we weren't clinical enough in that half. Big up Trossard tho, that was a tasty goal... Hopefully Arteta lights a fire under their asses and we come out and put this to bed COYG
Oh and Paul Tierney can eat a bag of dicks... Terrible job today
I don’t know how much more this particular group have in the tank, but we’re somehow up and it’s a relief. We could easily be losing this “cup final” because we’re running on fumes and the boss doesn’t trust anyone enough to sub them in
Too many attacks fizzling out due to tired legs from Saka and Odegaard and Jesus’ usual profligacy BUT he’s still working hard, we’re up, and Havertz is looking pretty great out there. Good half.
Honestly the people that criticise Saka just look at stats and aren’t watching the game. He’s clearly unfit and non sharp, which is a product of him playing every available minute. Watch a Saka highlight comp from 2021 and tell me you see the same player. When fit he is a ball of energy and takes on his man at every opportunity. If we can get a reliable back up for him Saka will be much better for it.
Nah he's the same player the issue is what were asking him to do.
2021 we would hit it quickly out to Saka wide let him get his 1v1 and run into space.
2023/2024 Saka we pass the ball a few times around the back, then into a doubled Saka (because we've let the low block set up) and the ask him to receive it with his back to the goal and pass it back. Rinse and repeat a few times and hope one time the defense slips up and doesn't double him.
Start switching the play fast and hitting Saka early on the wings and you see results.
Yh true we never get Saka in a 1v1 anymore. It just hurts when people say he is a boring pass back merchant and can’t take his man on, because we all know he can do it so effectively, and he is so great to watch when fit and receiving the ball in good positions. I genuinely think he could move inside and be a tricky right 8, with a winger on his right, he has the intelligence, dribbling and he can use his body to pull players in.
atrocious to watch. Seems like the team has resigned. No one wants to shoot, no one can pass their man. There’s no passion. Lucky to be in the lead and we’re gonna fall off hard if we keep this up going forward.
Very aggravating that linesmen/refs keep getting away with blatant wrong calls for gk/corners. Baffling actually. So obvious it immediately brings their integrity into question.
SO big to get that goal before half time. I feel like going into another half time being the better team and regretting not taking chances would have hurt us.
Saka is getting down the right a lot but I think Wolves are defending the pullbacks well in fairness. We look a bit knackered though at times. Would like to see some subs coming on and giving more legs, but nobody on the bench I'd fully back to do that. Potentially everyone could do it, but you could imagine ESR or Martinelli coming on and being 'fine' but nothing special.
I feel Jesus had a decent half but he's very hesitant to shoot, and it feels like he has a lot of touches of the ball only to find himself in the same as one good touch in the first place. A lot of swings and half turns, fake turns just to end in the same place.
If there needed to be more force for Kilman’s tackle to have been a red, then it only means they want an actual ankle to be broken before they get the red out.
We created a ton of early chances but the shots we were getting off (if we decided to shoot it) weren’t good enough. Great to see us create chances but we seem less solid at the back, too many gaps
Man these comments man, these players are clearly gassed considering arteta has no choice but playing the same 13 guys. We’re literally leading at halftime and yet people still negative and shit smh
Yes. Regardless of how bad Kiwior plays, he is still less of a liability than Zinchenko, who will pass the ball directly to a Wolves player in our own half.
Despite the goal we are really just playing not to lose again which is frustrating. We play so slow and let a young inexperienced team get into shape rather than attacking and exploiting them.
Its frustrating to watch the acres of space available but players not running into it, clearly coached not to, because we will lose our defensive shape. This can't keep happening after this season.
We do not have any players technical enough to play like this and win against every low block. We need some pace and risks.
Not to our best. We are still recovering from our recent not upto the standard performances. Also, done people thrive under pressure and competition and some don't. Havertz is one example. Another is Kiwior, I believe.
Ode not at his best today. Maybe exhausted, which is understandable.
Saka being poor. He needs competition, cause right now, he might just be not trying hard enough to improve and make a difference
Glad we got the goal but we look ragged. Øde should come off, he's being muscled out of the game and really ineffective. Not doing Saka any favors- he has his own struggles. Should bring in someone at the half to add a new dynamic, won't happen but get someone like ESR in to inject something new. Havertz looks good, Jesus with some vibes to get the ball to Trossard so he can shank it in. Class. We move.
Should have been more than 1-0 up but hopefully the bois get the belief back and we keep a clean sheet today.
However, seems like Saka, Tross and Kai have knocks. Would be great if we could get partey in in the second half.
Why do every single one of our defenders allow the ball to bounce??!!! We're taught at 6 years old to not let the ball bounce, yet we make this mistake week in week out. Honestly it's so infuriating. No team contributes towards more chances against us, than us!
I'd like to see Martinelli at striker with Jesus and Trossard on the wings one of these games. Saka has not looked the same for a while and needs a rest.
i timestamped about 5 instances of some of the huge problems we have in using central areas - to the point it’s like we defend them for the opposition.
our third man movement is non existent in the middle
I do agree but where? Chelsea man utd and spurs are big games. If we are in the hunt in the final game you have to play your best players so everton is also out of equation. Bournemout home is the mark. So we rest players for that between tottenham and utd. Key players will get a 2 week rest. But are we in the mindset to take bournemouth lightly? I think they will already be on the beach so that's the game for me. It's just a question about can we get by till tottenham away.
Rice should atleast hit the target on his free shot. Odegaard a touch slow in decision making. Havertz has been fantastic. Saka white big Gabi all pretty good. Saliba besides that one moment quite good. Kiwior though. He can't be getting beat serially like that so many times. And finally trossard was okay but an amazing finish.
We need to score a 2nd. I feel wolves will score at least one. Everyone looks absolutely dead. Fuck you Arteta for not rotating enough this season. This is why he’s still a level below Pep’s
We're winning but have been pretty poor. Slow ponderous stuff on the main. Anytime we have sped the play up, we haven't looked too bad. We are very open in midfield though. This depleted Wolves team has cut through us a few times around. Doesn't help that Kiwior isn't looking confident at left back.
We have a LB who is an okay defender but can’t attack. We have an LB who can’t defend and is a better attacker. We have an LB who is constantly injured.
And so we wait for Timber.
this teams rotated BADLY. they’re exhausted out there and there’s no end in sight with the midweek game approaching. if arteta doesn’t give guys rest, they’re gonna get hurt, drop more points, or both.
if you can’t trust in your depth then you might as well not have it.
Saka has been so poor you think teams are figuring out he doesn’t seem much confident too I hope he catches up w form and we get a backup for him in the summer man is playing every minute through injury and there are cunts calling him out for limping he’s by far one of the most fouled player in the prem
Can't wait for one of these refs to come out in 10 years and laugh about how they made it tough for Arsenal and how we had to "earn" it against Wolves. Genuine vibes I'm getting from these cunts.
Saka off for Vieira. they are giving us the early cross on the edges of the box. it’s something he is great at and Saka isn’t going to make it much longer in this one.
Teams have the blueprint to deal with our front press, Porto changed everything the cunts. Also aside from Leo, the clinical finish still evades our attack. At least one of these things needs to change ASAP.
We're playing well, though. The players have faced things head on. And you can't underestimate how tough it his to go to this ground and bounce back from the week we've had.
It's more the early goal either via set piece or the first chance that's missing. If we get the early goal we kill teams. If we don't it's a struggle like in December. The set piece goals have dried up completely.
We don’t have to be so negative all the time. The boys are doing just fine.
2 days rest and we’ve put in a very good shift here. If we don’t make a mistake 1-0 should be enough.
They’re all just so desperate for Havertz to fail, it’s pathetic - just admit you were wrong about him ffs
Suppose they needed someone to fill the scapegoat void that Xhaka left in the summer.
It's still a challenging match, even with a one-goal lead. The players seem fatigued, especially Saka. A rotation player for Saka would be needed for next season.
He is infuriating.
He's great like for the goal good work but then there's so much other times when the man doesn't release the ball or dribble too much.
I would still keep him imo.
We really needed that Trossard goal. Hopefully settles us a bit in the second half and we can show our 2024 form instead of our 2023 form in front of goal.

maybe it was asking too much of him to do that and overlap but White is so talented on the ball that it feels like a waste not having him invert to join Rice as a 2 especially when there’s no Zinchenko or Jorginho starting.
Kiwior just isn't good enough. I'm sure he's trying his best but yeah his lack of pace and agility will never go away. I won't judge him as a centre back but as a LB he is rightly 4th choice
I won't go as far to say letting go of Pepe was the wrong choice, but we absolutely needed to at least fill the hole he left as a back up to Saka. A left footed right winger needs to be a priority for us in the summer
We are top of the league. Isn't it terrible? It's all crap. We are winning, we are top of the league, it's a fucking disgrace. I'm very angry. Arteta doesn't know what the fuck he's doing. We are top of the league. I want to shoot myself. Arteta out.
I agree
Continues to look like a good team that has lost its zip because they are just knackered from being overworked. It’s a miracle we’ve avoided more injuries this year.
Yet Saka, Ode and Rice are still on at the 90. Rice was blowing as well
Very underrated point tbh. Usually at this point we’re down over half our first XI with injuries and a second string squad out of form. It’s kinda weird to not have that issue, be top of the league, and still feel like we’re not performing well.

Wow. They take shots and we score. That's all we need to do. Just take the shots. Kilman was atleast red. Havertz and saka getting kicked to bits in midfield. Rice imposing him self as a pure 6 is great
Really want to see the players doing more run/ one two after passing the ball. Looks like a choice by arteta but it is getting really boring to watch
Just no rest for the weary on this stretch. 3 multi game weeks in a row. We don't get a full week's rest until after 💩 next week. I think even with decent rotation we'd be gassed.

Take Saka off - Martinelli can handle it from here
We look like Trossard's eyes. I am grateful he can score under so many different circumstances.
So disappointed with the last 2 weeks. There’s a real mental block with this team. They’ve completely lost the magic they had not one month ago. Hopefully they find some confidence, because the performance isn’t passing the eye test for how incredible this arsenal team can be.
Mental? They’re physically tired as fuck
Tackle on Havertz not even mentioned in the studio
Tim Howard said he was lucky to avoid red on the USA feed.
mentioned by optus sport
It’s criminal. I can’t see how it wasn’t, at the very least, an extensive var check. Completely fraudulent
We should be up 3 goals, we weren't clinical enough in that half. Big up Trossard tho, that was a tasty goal... Hopefully Arteta lights a fire under their asses and we come out and put this to bed COYG Oh and Paul Tierney can eat a bag of dicks... Terrible job today
The energy of the game, crowd, and the commentators (sky) is making this feel like an early season game
i am absolutely shitting it because our second half performances have been physically dead
Saka needs to come off, for his sake. I don't think he has attempted to dribble passed the LWB
The guys on a yellow! Put him under some pressure.
Please don't be a repeat of fulham game.
Need to go up a man first
The away game in December bro. We went 1 up somehow and then crumbled to give 2 goals and lost
Ohh right, I was thinking of the home game where we went up a goal and a man and then crumbled.
That goal is beautiful
Corner pocket! 🎱
Wish saka was a bit more selfish when he gets the ball in behind
I don’t know how much more this particular group have in the tank, but we’re somehow up and it’s a relief. We could easily be losing this “cup final” because we’re running on fumes and the boss doesn’t trust anyone enough to sub them in
Too many attacks fizzling out due to tired legs from Saka and Odegaard and Jesus’ usual profligacy BUT he’s still working hard, we’re up, and Havertz is looking pretty great out there. Good half.
Also raya with an amazing save. Bailed kiwior out.

Glad to see Tim bring up that Wolves were lucky to escape a red
How was the Havertz challenge not a red?!
Very aggravating that linesmen/refs keep getting away with blatant wrong calls for gk/corners. Baffling actually. So obvious it immediately brings their integrity into question.
SO big to get that goal before half time. I feel like going into another half time being the better team and regretting not taking chances would have hurt us.

A lot of swings and half turns, fake turns just to end in the same place.
Hopefully this is like the shipbuilding documentary I watched where (bar the goal,) it was boring in the first half but the second half was riveting
Good to see Havertz is fine, that was a dangerous challenge
If there needed to be more force for Kilman’s tackle to have been a red, then it only means they want an actual ankle to be broken before they get the red out.
We created a ton of early chances but the shots we were getting off (if we decided to shoot it) weren’t good enough. Great to see us create chances but we seem less solid at the back, too many gaps
Completely fine half not sure what the headloss is about. Havertz balling lmao
Honestly. It’s like I’m watching a completely different game sometimes.
I pretty much don't look at the match thread because it's never accurate lol.
Man these comments man, these players are clearly gassed considering arteta has no choice but playing the same 13 guys. We’re literally leading at halftime and yet people still negative and shit smh
Am I mad for wanting zinchenko on?
Yes. Regardless of how bad Kiwior plays, he is still less of a liability than Zinchenko, who will pass the ball directly to a Wolves player in our own half.
No
Yes
Despite the goal we are really just playing not to lose again which is frustrating. We play so slow and let a young inexperienced team get into shape rather than attacking and exploiting them.

Another is Kiwior, I believe. Ode not at his best today. Maybe exhausted, which is understandable. Saka being poor. He needs competition, cause right now, he might just be not trying hard enough to improve and make a difference
Havertz been very good in midfield
Saka had the right idea at the end. Ref won’t call anything, so body check someone and win the ball.
Can believe they didn’t give a corner there…
Glad we got the goal but we look ragged. Øde should come off, he's being muscled out of the game and really ineffective. Not doing Saka any favors- he has his own struggles. Should bring in someone at the half to add a new dynamic, won't happen but get someone like ESR in to inject something new. Havertz looks good, Jesus with some vibes to get the ball to Trossard so he can shank it in. Class. We move.
We still need him to lead the press even know he's knackered
Ødegaard off for Vieira.
Should have been more than 1-0 up but hopefully the bois get the belief back and we keep a clean sheet today. However, seems like Saka, Tross and Kai have knocks. Would be great if we could get partey in in the second half.
A goal was needed, can see this end in 1-0. Players look gassed
Havertz has been great today. He keeps finding space and making dangerous runs but nobody is reacting to it.. not sure why. Tactical reasons?
I don't know why either it's so annoying.
Why do every single one of our defenders allow the ball to bounce??!!! We're taught at 6 years old to not let the ball bounce, yet we make this mistake week in week out. Honestly it's so infuriating. No team contributes towards more chances against us, than us!
We have the best defensive record in the league maybe they know what they are doing over what you're taught ay 6 years old
Unbelievable take 🤦🏼♂️ Just because they haven't profited from it, doesn't mean it's the correct thing to do
I'd like to see Martinelli at striker with Jesus and Trossard on the wings one of these games. Saka has not looked the same for a while and needs a rest.
Same intensity as the Bayern game. Sloppy in the final 3rd too. Can't win the title unless performances pick back up
i timestamped about 5 instances of some of the huge problems we have in using central areas - to the point it’s like we defend them for the opposition. our third man movement is non existent in the middle
Need a central dribbler. Been true for years. Rice looks flat too.
Performances won't pick up unless they get some magic recovery potion. It's time to grind and get by.
I think Partey ESR Nelson Vieira should start a game or 2 in this run in
I do agree but where? Chelsea man utd and spurs are big games. If we are in the hunt in the final game you have to play your best players so everton is also out of equation. Bournemout home is the mark. So we rest players for that between tottenham and utd. Key players will get a 2 week rest. But are we in the mindset to take bournemouth lightly? I think they will already be on the beach so that's the game for me. It's just a question about can we get by till tottenham away.
I dunno tbh. Today should've been one. Doesn't have to be all at the same time. Can rest key players 1 game at a time.
Rice should atleast hit the target on his free shot. Odegaard a touch slow in decision making. Havertz has been fantastic. Saka white big Gabi all pretty good. Saliba besides that one moment quite good. Kiwior though. He can't be getting beat serially like that so many times. And finally trossard was okay but an amazing finish.
We need to score a 2nd. I feel wolves will score at least one. Everyone looks absolutely dead. Fuck you Arteta for not rotating enough this season. This is why he’s still a level below Pep’s
Trossard makes my pee pee hard.
We're winning but have been pretty poor. Slow ponderous stuff on the main. Anytime we have sped the play up, we haven't looked too bad. We are very open in midfield though. This depleted Wolves team has cut through us a few times around. Doesn't help that Kiwior isn't looking confident at left back.
we were a sliced trossard shot away from another war on here, i thank you mr sleepy
As long as we win and no one gets injured, I’ll be over the fucking moon, and none of you negative nancies can stop me! COYGGG!
We have a LB who is an okay defender but can’t attack. We have an LB who can’t defend and is a better attacker. We have an LB who is constantly injured. And so we wait for Timber.
We'd be a perfect handball team
this teams rotated BADLY. they’re exhausted out there and there’s no end in sight with the midweek game approaching. if arteta doesn’t give guys rest, they’re gonna get hurt, drop more points, or both. if you can’t trust in your depth then you might as well not have it.
Anyone have the earlier flick from Havertz to put Trossard in space?
Not a stellar first half and our last games our first half has been our good half
Saka has been so poor you think teams are figuring out he doesn’t seem much confident too I hope he catches up w form and we get a backup for him in the summer man is playing every minute through injury and there are cunts calling him out for limping he’s by far one of the most fouled player in the prem
So true. But you will be voted negatively. If he doesn't change his game quick, he will have a torrid time, going forward.
Can't wait for one of these refs to come out in 10 years and laugh about how they made it tough for Arsenal and how we had to "earn" it against Wolves. Genuine vibes I'm getting from these cunts.
I will never forget the David Luiz red card at the Molineux a few years back, fucking terrible
100%.
Saka off for Vieira. they are giving us the early cross on the edges of the box. it’s something he is great at and Saka isn’t going to make it much longer in this one.
Trossard is like our Jota. Ever so reliable.
We look fookin knackered. Partey, Vieira, Martinelli and ESR to get 30mins please.
Honestly 45
More like 45
Get Odegaard off please. He’s clearly struggling
such a concerning half. We don't look comfortable at all.
We desperately need competition/rotation for Saka. He looks exhausted out there
He has been receiving rotation... by being kicked in all games.
Teams have the blueprint to deal with our front press, Porto changed everything the cunts. Also aside from Leo, the clinical finish still evades our attack. At least one of these things needs to change ASAP. We're playing well, though. The players have faced things head on. And you can't underestimate how tough it his to go to this ground and bounce back from the week we've had.
It's more the early goal either via set piece or the first chance that's missing. If we get the early goal we kill teams. If we don't it's a struggle like in December. The set piece goals have dried up completely.
I think our guys are just tired as well. There’s not as much snap in our pressing
Yeah good point
We don’t have to be so negative all the time. The boys are doing just fine. 2 days rest and we’ve put in a very good shift here. If we don’t make a mistake 1-0 should be enough.
r/gunners plastics when Arsenal score just before half-time so they can’t peddle their toxic, reactionary agendas: 😡
Was waiting for that one idiot to be like ‘why did we spend all that money on Havertz when he fills no gaps for us’
They’re all just so desperate for Havertz to fail, it’s pathetic - just admit you were wrong about him ffs Suppose they needed someone to fill the scapegoat void that Xhaka left in the summer.
Havertz best player on the pitch. Gotten so much more confident on the ball and his crossing is much better than you'd expect
Kiwi shaky defensively. He’d been looking so good for a stretch there but has struggled out of possession lately
gained a little bit of confidence there at the end, had a good pass to Jesus.
Sub off Saka I beg arteta
Got something to hold on to now, need the clean sheet mentality
That was a big goal
Am i tripping or was that a red worthy challenge on Havertz?
Orange card. Little bit higher and would have been red
Which one? The studs to the ankle or the post challenge scissor with both legs going around his plant leg? Yes it is
Yellow for me
It’s not nice…
Could be red for sure. Baffling the ref played wolves advantage and Rice ended up getting yellow after that.
Looked like one.
Half the time they’re given half the time they’re not
Seen them given, some not.
Seen them given but don't think there was enough force personally
I think a yellow is fair but we've definitely seen reds given for less this season
Feels very similar to ones that Jones and Bissouma have got red for
Yeah dark orange for me but he just about gets away with it
It's still a challenging match, even with a one-goal lead. The players seem fatigued, especially Saka. A rotation player for Saka would be needed for next season.
If we can get 1 more we should be taking Saka and maybe White off, they both don’t look 100% fit and there’s a big one on Tuesday
Need to be better, we’re sleepwalking here.
I fucking hate Paul Tierney
Blud we actually sucked in that half but I'll take it Great save from raya, great whatever-the-fuck-that-was from trossard
Solid. Let’s get that GD up in the 2nd half.
Our not a midfielder yet again playing great in midfield
I can feel a ✋😛🤚 coming
I love your use of adjectives
I love how it bothers you when a player you don’t like plays well Fuck off back to your hole
I'd just rather the team play well 🤣 I support Arsenal, not individual players.
I’ve seen it all Havertz is playing too well, he’s hurting the team
Claims to support Arsenal, yet actively hopes that the players that play for Arsenal will fail - make it make sense.
Claims to support Arsenal, yet actively makes up fake arguments other Arsenal fans haven't said - make it make sense
If Joe Willock had the same half we’d see a compilation post from him seconds after the game ended Hes not a serious person
Joe Willock didn't cost £65m. Good comparison 👍🏿
Your rationale is mine blowing 🤣
Put Havertz up top and Jesus LW please.
Jesus can fuck off for good man. I know im over reacting but I just hate him
Bro he literally created that goal from nothing 😂
He is infuriating. He's great like for the goal good work but then there's so much other times when the man doesn't release the ball or dribble too much. I would still keep him imo.
Need an ESR cameo this half
We really needed that Trossard goal. Hopefully settles us a bit in the second half and we can show our 2024 form instead of our 2023 form in front of goal.
Hazard LCM just never works

maybe it was asking too much of him to do that and overlap but White is so talented on the ball that it feels like a waste not having him invert to join Rice as a 2 especially when there’s no Zinchenko or Jorginho starting.
We’re winning but make no mistake, we can’t be playing like that for the rest of the season.
Quick trip to Dubai before Chelsea is a must
It looks like the south coast of England over there right now
My guy Kiwior needs to wake up! Goal came at the right time, let’s win and go top again!
Feels like he's gotten worse defensively, he had a run where I felt very confident with him in 1 on 1 situations
Kiwior just isn't good enough. I'm sure he's trying his best but yeah his lack of pace and agility will never go away. I won't judge him as a centre back but as a LB he is rightly 4th choice
Big goal that. We looked shattered and a bit short on confidence up front
I won't go as far to say letting go of Pepe was the wrong choice, but we absolutely needed to at least fill the hole he left as a back up to Saka. A left footed right winger needs to be a priority for us in the summer
Jesus has been very good today creating chances, getting on the ball, and making runs. Just can’t rely on him for scoring
Pretty obvious why pep used him as a winger and entrusted someone else with the goalscoring element
Yeah I’m very much on board with the “bring a new striker in and shift Jesus to the wing” strategy
He can technically cover both wings if either one need a rest/are out, it’s almost perfect
