Is Willian injured?

 

[field442]

Why is AMN starting over Saka? Only critisizum I have of the lineup.

He’s better defensively.

 

[Macho]

Why can’t they give us Arsenal guys as pundits. I only see Van Persie or Cole nowadays it’s rubbish.

On BT sports it’s Ferdinand, Joe Cole and Van Persie smh

Arteta couldn't pick a better XI given how poor the squad is. No Mustafi, no Kola is a big bonus in itself. AMN isn't all that yet, but a lot safer bet.

 

[Ashybashy86]

Not impressed by our effort either

Club allowed Bellerín's mate to style them. Players looked more dapper under Wenger's watch.

It’s good that we are after coutinho/willian these type of technical/skillful/flair/talented players that most local fans don’t rate.

It just they are too old and expensive. Same type of players at a younger age would be amazing addition to the squad.

What you mean local fans don’t rate? Think Willian is one of the most rated players in England. Just he’s 32 now.

AMN over Saka is the only surprise. Big game for AMN, Arteta trusts him.

It's not a surprise though. AMN smashed it last time out (barring his left footed final ball).

 

[Yousif Arsenal]

@field442 and @yousif_arsenal in tears because Willian not starting.

So disappointed wanted to see our new signing.

 

[field442]

Is Willian injured?

He had a knock but Lampard said he would be fit so **** knows.

 

[Lidl_Reed]

Confirmed I'm not watching the final in. Why not AMN at RB?

 

[Hunta]

AMN brings a calming influence, lad doesn’t give a ****.

 

[al-Ustaadh]

LOL

 

[ChefMan21]

Saka impact sub?

Why is AMN starting over Saka? Only critisizum I have of the lineup.

Tactical.

AMN can slot into the midfield. It’ll provide Xhaka and Ceballos with the extra man in there if there’s an overload.

Chelsea are playing something similar with Mason Mount dropping in there with Kovacic and Jorginho.

 

[Tourbillion]

Honestly, I don’t see how Chelsea score?

Ffsm

 

[GDeep™]

He had a knock but Lampard said he would be fit so **** knows.

I wonder if Lampard knows something we don’t?

 

[al-Ustaadh]

Is Willian injured?

Yeah... He's going to be out for about 3 years...

 

[GDeep™]

I think Willian is Arsenal bound you know.

 

[Makingtrax]

Great interview with Emi on BBC. Deserves this chance, loyal, hardworking and really talented.

Is Willian injured?

Lampard said yesterday that he wasn't injured and would be in the squad. Might be like Gotze missing the CL final against Bayern before joining.
