Havertz is an absolute shithouse, he’s raked 2 or 3 of them now in the face. We’ve been missing a shithouser for years

Fucking hell everything doesn’t have to be so binary. People like me who advocated we rest a few bodies tonight didn’t say it because we were waving the white flag to the whole competition, we said it because it’s virtually impossible not to qualify for the next round anyway.

I’d love if we sent out a weakened side tonight to give us the best chance of winning Sunday. I’d also absolutely love if we won this whole thing out. Both those thoughts are ok to have.

Anyway, anyone who’s ever listened to Arteta speak about how he expects everyone to be on beast mode and play 60 games a season knew he’d go full strength tonight anyway so any thoughts, hopes on team selection were redundant.



Honest question, do you think we have gone full strength with that line up ? Surely jesus isnt a starter anymore ? I have no issue with rotation tonight if the right players are rested, but leaving out trossard and jorginho makes no sense to me cos they havent had many starts this season. Any game where we intentionally rotate even a small bit, surely saka has to be the name on the top of the list of players to be rested ??? We will go into the game Sunday with some key players tired, and players on the bench who cannot be sharp cos they have had little or no game time recently - hopefully we wont need to depend on the bench to win the game for us Sunday
Full strength would probably be Trossard in at 10 and Havertz up top but it’s much of muchness for me. Not exactly helter skelter, let’s hope it stays that way and doesn’t get frantic with us chasing the game.

Tbh Rodders, I think Arteta would pick Jesus over Trossard in his first choice eleven if Odegaard is out. I fear he'll do so at the weekend. Fuck knows why as Jesus is fucking useless, whereas Leo is always capable of scoring a goal or two.

I said it about Partey a few posts above, but likewise, fuck knows how Jesus is still at the club?

One that hopefully doesn't have Martin Tyler polluting the air with his constant bollocks

Kolasinac has the measure of Jesus all through this first half, he was a spent player when he was with us and years later he’s still schooling Jesus which for us isn’t a good look

He went with Trossard against the scum Retro and I’d be amazed if he doesn’t do the same Sunday.

This is being played with all the intensity of 2 teams who know it’s game 1 of an 8 game mini league.
