What amazes me the most is that MLS is so tactically and positionally versatile despite his age. He’s still under 20. If he were given his chances earlier, he would be as praised as Nico O’Reilly is now. They both are very bright youngsters.
Quite amusing that the upcoming Arsenal game is affecting the both hosts’ clubs survivals😁
Refreshing to see some good tactical analysis instead of bias nonsense. Cheers guys
Simple: Gyok is now fighting for all the balls, running the channels and even winning balls to pass to the wingers/AM, not just waiting in the pocket where he’s always covered and out of space
Wenger has clearly had a word with Arteta
Got darn right, the hammers been a thorn in Arsenal side every year, it’s payback on Sunday! Cmon you gooners!
This guy knows his stuff
Drop ❌️ Rotate ✅️
Myles Lewis skelly needs to improve in one area, he occasionally loses the ball, which can cost Arsenal in big games. His a good player but he can be insecure in keeping the ball without losing it. He will be a big star if he develops in this area
Can West Ham take any points from Arsenal?
Arsenal is going to dismantle west Han and the rest of the teams left in pre
Great Analysis.
Are we winning the double Dean? 😮🤣🔥🔥
Martinelli needs to start playing up front next season he shouldn’t be playing the left wing anymore Arsenal should get another LW
Very nice use of graphics to illustrate the tactical analysis, I must say. I'm not usually a fan of micromanaging what happens if one player moves 5 yards in a given direction, but your illustrations do make it make more sense.
Just one correction in vocabulary. Rice + MLS + Eze is a midfield No6 + No8 + No10. It is not a double-pivot. Zubimendi + Rice is a double-pivot because they are both natural No6 midfielders, both defensive in nature. With MLS and Rice, MLS plays the Xhaka Role while Rice plays the Makelele role.
It's going to be fun Westham don't have a choice but to attack no low blockade we are going to beat them
I really don't want to see Haverts start.
At this stage, the real question is HOW MUCH DOES THE PLAYERS WANT IT NOW?
That Saliba pass to Gyokeres unlocked the defense against athletico. They were in scramble mode which allowed saka the tap in.
