As much as I hate listening to Merson rambling he made a good point earlier.I think Arteta finally realised he had to try something a bit different. That 0-3 loss at home to Villa was a nasty bump that made us re-evaluate a few things. 4 at the back and Auba at CF in our next game were positive moves. Think he will build on that and add maybe a few slight alterations to that to get a better balance. Try to stay solid at the back while offering genuine attacking threats.
Arteta doesn't know his best team still.
He needs to pick the same players for 5 games and see how it rides out.
Chopping and changing every week isn't working.
