    If we play out of from the BACK like we did last night we may as well start with a 3 goal deficit

    I don’t mind losing to a better team but not by lying down and opening our legs for them!

    That’s why White was signed. Arteta may well go with 3 at the back from now on, Holding, White & Mari. He would ideally like Trippier & Tierney as wing backs. Partey, Lokonga central Saka, Smith-Rowe, Odegaard behind Abameyang. Not saying that will work but I can see him trying it or something similar hopefully without Xhaka.

    Oracle- some hope! Xhaka is here for another three or four years, not sure how long but it already seems like a lifetime. Imagine at the end of this contract, we’ll probably extend another year and then….. we can all celebrate when he has a testimonial and become an Emirates legend! That is the reason, steve68, that Arteta will not pursue Bissouma. He has Xhaka as a permanent fixture to partner sicknote, Partey. The latter missed around six game in five years at Atletico- what do we do to players when they arrive?

    I would have bitten Roma’s hands off when they offered £12m. Xhaka will only feature whilst Arteta is manager, as he will be gone by Christmas it’s doubtful Xhaka will be selected when a new manager takes over. That new manager according to the press will be Conte, that’s not my opinion, that’s what the press are saying.

    Muffler – He could’ve moved chambers there but he’s not good enough either.

    Holding,Mari,Chambers,cedric,Kolasinac all of them are not good enough to play for this club.They don’t even deserve to be in the squad.
    Did you see the mistakes we made while playing out from the back early on in the game,the only difference is we had WBA kids who couldn’t finish in an empty net if they wanted to.

    What’s scary is Arteta still insists on playing out from the back with these players.Listen,when you have capable players then I don’t mind it at all.But when you have clowns in demesne then you’re just going to get punished.
    One would expect after that performance would’ve given a confidence booster and that we might have a chance against city.But we have no chance, not even for a draw.That’s how less confidence I have in this team.

    Rio was laughing at our defence the other day, calling it not good enough even with the Ben White signing who he again thought we massively overpaid for.
    Where is our 50m player.First game shambles.next two games out?
    It’s a rhetorical question I know he’s out due to illness.

    But had we spend that 50m on Vestergaard and Anderson we’d have not only saved 20m.But we could’ve started either one if not both against city.Now we will have to see either Holding or Mari if not both.

    Better no never said so I just dont think a player who wants out should play at all let alone in the wrong position.
