Park

Its the tactic mainly, but our defend is really shit.

Yeah its the tactic change, our defensive formation is more compact now.

The opposition finds it hard to score a goal.

You can notice aubameyang tracking back on the left side and making a lot of interceptions and tackles.

We would have won vs Chelsea if not for individual mistakes by Mustafi and Leno.

Arteta is a tactical genius.
The on-and-off the ball positioning is evident in his tactic.

He learnt from Wenger and Pep (who learnt from Johan Cruyff).

True, the way he talks and attitude also convincing.
It have been that way since during his time as a player.

Toreirra role is very important,
while others disciplinely maintaining the compact defensive shape (making the opposition harder to play, also making no holes in defense),
he will be the one roaming in between the line, aggressively try to intercepts or wins the ball and making tackles.

Arteta survived Marcelo Bielsa’s master class.

We went from this in first half

To this at Full Time

So satisfying to see Zaha not getting any space.

Selling one of them is not that bad.

kinda got outplayed early on, but then sheffield went to defensive mode after 30 mins.
we keep attacking but hard to pass through them.
somehow we managed to play beautiful quick passes between their man.

I still think arteta is a great coach, but after all it is up to the players to perform on field.
I think players are still trying to adapt to the intensity of his tactics.

Also, torreira has been very crucial for us, without torreira, it seems like there is higher chance for us to concedes goal.

Ozil is the first person to be subbed out when we playing 10 man twice already.
Arteta knew ozil cant contribute to the team much physically to win the ball or pressure.

Nooo

Auba also rated martinelli high, he said this before chelsea game.

nice

Was in Man City for 3 years but always loaned out.
Maybe he cant fight for places with kompany in team or not compatible.

He is part of 2019 Serie A team of the year tho.


“In my mind, I was moving to Manchester but I’d only been there once for my medical,” he explained.

“I signed for City in 2013 (*should be 2016) but I’ve never met Pep Guardiola or any of the first-team players.
