@EBL2017 The best Arsenal teams haven't played with a 10. It was done to try to cope with the absence of Odegaard. Hopefully next Odegaard can stay fit and we can drop the silly '10' gimmick.
@adamkeys_ Sadly this is true. Wenger was great at it, then he started losing players he didn't want to, then he started refusing to sell players and Calum Chambers ended up staying 8 years.
The fact that Newcastle got rid of Elliott Anderson in a flurry of transfers between themselves, Forest, Villa & Chelsea designed purely to cheat the system & exploit a loophole is the funniest thing of the summer. #EPL#Transfers#cheatsneverprosper (except Forest in this case)
@mcfc_NIW I don't know if I;ve ever seen so many people care about anything more. It's all Man United, Liverpool, Chelsea and all 7 Man City fans have talked about for over a month.
@Gregdorrers@_PhilCosta I do wonder what happened with the central thing. To me he's never looked like a central player at all, not for us, he's clearly a wideman that likes to come inside, like a left footed Trossard really. The minute it was said oh he's a central player now that was it.
@Gregdorrers@_PhilCosta He just doesn't have the body for it unfortunately. He'd be a star in 1991. But you can't play in the Prem in 2026 with a normal human beings body. It just doesn't work, and it's not his fault,
@_PhilCosta@wesgooner I'd love to know who decided he wasn't an option on the right anymore, because to me that's the point when it was probably done for him. I have no idea if that was a club decision or if he Maitland Nilesed himself, but whatever it was, I think that was the end.
@Gregdorrers@_PhilCosta And let's be clear, he was 1000% right on Smith Rowe AND Ramsdale, which I think most of us weren't in full agreement with at the time.
@Gregdorrers@_PhilCosta They could coexist though Dorrers. There was no need to buy Madueke, and you can make the same argument for Eze. I think there's some evidence that Arteta simply doesn't rate him as a player, like with Smith Rowe, and whether we understand it or not that's Arteta's job.
@scottjwillis If Rogers is brought in as a replacement for Odegaard then mental health checks need to be made around Colney. I really hope this 4231 disappears as quickly as it appeared.
