    How completely like you to miss the point

    Dog Snogger is Tavares, certain social media post which would turn your stomach


    Zinchenko is average defensively, your weird obsession about him hasn’t really been borne out this season. But the point is


    Timber didn’t need to be signed at all

    Tomiyasu is a decent squad player but that’s it


    The point being made is that Arteta has forever been changing things up with defence, and arguably when it wasn’t necessary. Before we signed Rice we’d spent more on defenders than any other position, it’s madness…that we’ve spent 600 million and we have a Man City reject and Eddie Nketiah as strikers…it’s beyond negligent.

    The problem none of you seem to recognise is how badly screwed we are going to be by the rules. It’s all very well saying sell this player sell that player but the clubs we’d sell them to are all in deep financial shit…if Leicester for instance get promoted they will start next season most likely with a points deduction.
    We are going to struggle to find buyers for Ramsdale, Nketiah, Nelson, Smith Rowe…let alone the real dross. We need to sell players even if we sign no one because of the massive losses we’ve made over the last few years…so we may be in a position where we have to sell a player we don’t want to sell. Only problem there is, so many other clubs are in similar positions that no one can buy them anyway.
    If not for the fact that we won’t be relegated, Arteta and Edu are the David O’Leary and Peter Ridsdale of the 2020s

    Jorginho, Rice, Kiwior, Jesus, Saka all back

    Martinelli on the bench. Seems that Saka is playing on the left and Havertz on the right

    More likely Jesus on the left, Saka on the right and Havertz up front

    Unless of course you think 'on the right' means as if you were looking at the team from the opposition goal which isn't how positions are normally described, but given your ignorance of the home/away format it wouldn't surprise me

    Shame for you then that your assertions are about as laudable as those of Comical Ali

    Not sure about the lineup - starting Zin basically hands Brighton a goal, so we'll need our scoring boots on today

    At least it hopefully means Tomi or Kiwior will start vs Bayern

    I'd also prefer to keep Saka back to see if we can keep him as ready for Bayern as possible
