Matt

The Arsenal.

[Matt @IslingtonMatt]

The lack of rotation, hard running and going deep into games. These are the main reasons why we have so many injuries

To sack him now is harsh. I feel sorry for the guy 😭

[Matt @IslingtonMatt]

Very harsh

EXCL Arsenal sack experienced head of medical Dr Zafar Iqbal. Decision comes as surprise to training ground staff. Full story: https://t.co/Ai07HY2AQp

Apparently every mid table baller in the prem is 100m.

Alexis Sanchez was going up against Eden Hazard. Who was undoubtedly world class

And many said he was on the same level at the time.

I don’t see Saka in the same tier as them.

[nico 🏁 @bombdiggy__]

Saying Bukayo Saka is better than prime Arsenal Alexis Sanchez is dishonesty

[Matt @IslingtonMatt]

£85m for someone who is not even close to being world class

The sport is a mess. That’s why “flops” are at an all time high

[Fabrizio Romano @FabrizioRomano]

🚨🇵🇹 Understand Matheus Fernandes price tag has been fixed by West Ham in a meeting with his camp: £85m.

Manchester United in contact with player side, more clubs also attentive and keen.

Everyone keeps saying he’s this amazing dribbler lol

He’s the most dispossessed player itl

His dribble success rate is very very low

[aliengunner @thealiengunner]

@IslingtonMatt Against low blocks you want your players to take the scraps of chances you give them

He does that

Also he’s a good dribbler in small spaces

He’s just also eats up ground aswell

[Matt @IslingtonMatt]

@gabi_wall6 He’s clunky and uses his physicality more to ride contact.

His success rate for attempted dribbles is actually very low.

[Matt @IslingtonMatt]

He’s a powerful runner in space. Not a natural dribbler

When facing low blocks. I don’t see how he helps us

[River1o_ @River1o_]

LW/LCM.

[Matt @IslingtonMatt]

I understand the idea more if he’s replacing Havertz

In other areas, he’s not the problem solver we need

[@ @agentinhoo]

Vs a rest defense, Rogers LW will look clunky and frustrating.

He’s coming to play SS/CF.

It’s not complicated

[Matt @IslingtonMatt]

@Sakkanel He’s a good player. Just not a needle mover for me

His stats for losing possession in transition is very high

A lot of things were said about Eze being the perfect fit last season. So I’ll rather wait first because I know transfer dopamine is high rn

[Matt @IslingtonMatt]

@0fficial_Emerie Yeah like Eze did for palace last season. And now you all want him replaced

You guys just watch highlights and think a player will smash it top bins every game

[Matt @IslingtonMatt]

Comp football is doing so much damage

One of the main reasons why a lot of signings are so underwhelming

Makes it look like players have certain traits when you chop up best highlights

[Matt @IslingtonMatt]

@Al10i_ @MHGooner95 He has different qualities that can help. But like Eze people need to manage their expectations or you will be underwhelmed

He’s not the perfect player. His stats for losing the ball are very high in transition

[Matt @IslingtonMatt]

@Al10i_ @MHGooner95 Why is that relevant to Rogers not being able to keep possession?

We’re looking for solutions here lol.

[Matt @IslingtonMatt]

@MHGooner95 He doesn’t give us more possession vs PSG

And he’s a turnover machine. He gives the ball away a lot in transitions

Best to manage your expectations. He’s a player that can be frustrating. Ask Villa fans

[Matt @IslingtonMatt]

@BenjiiPileggi Agreed. If the talk is about shifting the style to unlock things, not sure he’s the answer.

But if we’re committing to the style that won us the PL, the signing makes more sense.

[Matt @IslingtonMatt]

@dixonCiderd Saka is lol. Just because someone is good at carrying the ball doesn’t mean they’re natural dribblers. Angle bias comes into play

Or you might as well call Bellingham and Rice natural dribblers too.

Learn the difference.

[Matt @IslingtonMatt]

Agree. Top clubs complain when they’re responsible for inflating the market with average players

Should be certain requirements before a player is worth £60m or more

[Alexis’ Kavkas View 🇬🇪🇦🇿 @AlexisIsKavkas]

The big clubs simply need to stop paying inflated fees for mid-table starters and unproven talents from Europe.

If they do, the market will correct itself.

Players will either push for moves at more reasonable prices or demand release clauses in their contracts.
