Prediction
Arsenal 1-2 Man City
Country: England
Partey got zero minutes so I wouldn’t expect him to start. Mikel got Saka injured so don’t expect him either.
Same line up as vs Lens when Saka went off I’m afraid.
Raya has made two huge errors in three games btw. Needs a solid performance or questions will be asked.

Would be fun seeing Bumketiah against Dias and Gvardiol

Who are you looking forward to seeing against the City players then? Cause it’s looking a bit meady all round to me.
Like White vs Doku?
Or Fabio vs Akanji or Ake?
Haaland latching onto a Raya pass?
Haverts vs himself?
Why single out Eddie for when there are plenty of b*ms in this team.

We usually do quite well against them at home but they always manage to win.
That needs to change but we’ve lost a major threat in Saka, let’s hope certain players can step up.

It will be a low scoring loss.
We'll "play well" but we'll manage to shoot ourself in the foot.

If everyone’s fit except Timber, I think we’ll win tbh.

Narrow win for Arsenal, all is right with the world and Arteta arse lickers come for me like I said anything about this match in the first place methinks.

Don’t see how we can get anything from this game. Zero penetration. Will end 0-2 or 0-3 I think. Day at the office for Pep

Eddie would be the most clueless of them all.

Just avoid stupid individual mistakes where Arsenal players gift them ball and they score.

Player:Saliba
There won't be a better chance without Rodri who keeps them ticking over like a 3L V6 Ferrari engine. And a Lazarus style recovery from Sake rising from the dead to play 90 minutes. And we're at home. Arteta luck.

Zinchenko will get RINSED time and time again, but he’ll walk in the midfield with the ball and pass it 5 yards so people will think he’s a genius and blame Gabriel when he has to mark 3 City players down the left.
3 or 4 nil hammering if Saka and Martinelli are out.

Yeah I was really hoping for Partey to come on yesterday to build some match fitness and at least have a chance to play this.
If Saka and Martinelli are out then I don’t think we’re scoring

This tactic is totally reliant on brilliant individuals who can beat people 1v1 and create something, without Saka and Martinelli it’s pretty much useless.
What is the point of working towards isolating Vieira or Trossard in a 1v1 against the fullback when they just turn round and pass it back ?
Without that we’re just slowly passing it around until we play it wide, because everybody defends narrow, and cross it in to a 5’9 striker.
There is (next to) no movement, positional interchanging, overlapping or underlapping, speeding up of passing or fast one-twos, just everybody standing around in their designated position, it was so easy to defend.
Ironically the only person making an effort to drive forward and create something was the ’holding’ midfielder.
We really should have prioritised a Neto or Diaby over Havertz, we already had Xhaka, Vieira, Smith-Rowe and I actually prefer Trossard in that position to wide, also if we bought a really top winger you could use Saka there as well.
