Fair enough. I just happen to think given we lack a striker with the ability to play up front by themselves…it helps to have someone like Havertz there (like Giroud he holds up the ball well)Originally Posted by IBK

Fully agree with this post.
No one is saying Havertz should never play for the club again, but from what we have witnessed he has no business starting ahead of any of our squad players for now ( this includes the likes of Smith-Rowe and Nelson).
He can come in as a sub when we are winning a game with a 3-0 lead (that's if those days ever occur again).
This, though I'd go further and say his dislike of specialist fullbacks is also really hurting us
Kind of academic at this point, as we have no specialist fullbacks left.
Wrong (episode #34,545,767)
If he hadn't decided to freeze out Tierney we would be patently better off as a team
Imagine not understanding what the word Academic means in this context. But we know from the currents btw page that understanding the meaning of words is not your speciality
It’s saying yes you’re right, but it doesn’t change anything because we don’t have the ability to field specialist full backs even if Arteta acknowledged their usefulness
yes we do because Tierney is a specialist fullback and the only reason we sent him on loan is because Arteta doesn't like fullbacks, therefore Arteta's dislike of FBs has made us worse off and is hurting us, which is what i said
do you get it now?
Do you get how it’s academic in that it’s happened now and even if Arteta suddenly had a lightbulb moment it wouldn’t make a sod of difference.
You chose to make an argument about it, where all I said is yes you’re right but it’s academic now. But because your poorly wired brain has an overactive threat sensor when it comes to people not agreeing with you, you chose to make an issue of it.
So you tell me, Is it lack of comprehension or amygdala issues. Given that you’ve tended to jump on my responses without having taken the time to properly read them a few times of late I’ll go with the latter.
I'm not questioning your use of the word academic as such, what i am saying is that you are incorrect to say we don't have any FBs - we do have one but he has just been sent out on loan - loan deals can be cancelled
Erm you realise loan agreements tend to have contracts governing them so that we can’t just recall a player from loan on a whim. I don’t think “I suddenly rediscovered my faith in the traditional fullback role” counts
We have Tavares but ultimately we really need to be getting in money for him
