Couldn’t agree more with this analysis. Every word. Particularly the comments about Jesus, Odegaard and Eze. Personally I might have started the latter just to mix it up. What’s the point in having such a deep squad if our starting 11 becomes so predictable? Annoying.
I agree - we actually have the squad now to ask completely different questions throughout the game. Jesus and Merino is one, Eze as a left 10/8 is another one.
Arteta changes only like for like, so even the subs can be prepared in advance for.
Yup. What you wrote on Jesus is also spot on for me. Much as I love the guy and what a moment of brilliance he gave us against Bournemouth eh-but when he comes on and we are chasing a game more often than not we lose the focal point that big Vik gives us. That said the latter was pretty woeful against The Red Men…
