Is it just me or did Cedric all around (forget about the goal) look significantly better than Bellerin? I was specifically trying to watch him and it seemed like he looked faster, better passing, better positioning, better crosses, better decision making. And that is coming off of an injury with his first game action in months.

Ceballos looked terrific. Always looking to get the ball forward and he places it well. I've always thought Guendouzi has that ability, but he's got to be focused and put in the hard work.

Bellerin's first touch was woeful, especially in the first 30 minutes or so. He's not adding much to the squad anymore. Cedric did look better, but I'm certainly aware part of that may be the energy of being back out there for the first time in a long time.

Agree with the comment regarding PEA. Absolute must.

David Luiz looked comfortable and confident. That's a good sign.


I think a lot of the guys are just fatigued. All in all, most players just looked "blah" out there. Nothing great, nothing awful. Just OK. Hard to say too much about it. Same thing I thought about the Sheffield game.

Lucas Torreira is officially healthy and available for selection

I imagine we'll see Xhaka-Ceballos the rest of the year, unless something drastic happens. But how do y'all handle the Xhaka-Guendouzi-Ceballos-Torreira crowd next year?

Which 2 see your preferred starting lineup?

Next year?

Unless something changes Dani is going back to Madrid and Lucas & Duezy both want to leave. So next year it will be Xhaka and whoever we buy/loan-in this summer.

Rumors started popping up yesterday that we are talking with Madrid about either buying Dani or extending his loan through next summer. But who knows. Some of those same sources have been saying just a week ago that Arsenal/Arteta had no intention or desire to retain him for next season.

Yeah, I include Ceballos on a theoretical transfer.

And I think the reporting on that will correspond with how well Ceballos played in the most recent game.

Jose got screwed on that Harry Kane goal.

Couldn't happen to a nicer guy

Arsenal:

Leicester
at Tottenham
Liverpool
Watford
at Aston Villa

The next for are gonna be tough as hell, but Leicester and Tottenham haven't started back great either. Kinda holding out hope that Liverpool are gonna rest on their laurels the rest of the season so nobody picks up a major injury before the next campaign.

Martinelli just signed a contract extension. Good signs.

Also Auba apparently wants 3 years on 250k/wk.
chjoak

3 on 250k/WK actually isn't horrible when you consider what we gave Ozil and the output PEA is giving us. I might be inclined to offer up a base (175-200 maybe???) With incentives that could put him over 250 if he keeps producing and it ends up netting us CL.

I suspect we will struggle to create anything and hurdle towards a 0-0 draw today.

Pepe is out. Wife is in labor. Glad to see Nketiah start over Laca. I think we have our best lineup available there

Ornstein confirms that Arsenal are shopping Duezy in swap deals.

Pretty lethargic so far.

I sure wish they'd stop playin the ball back to Martinez so dang much. Keep getting pinned back and usually end up giving the ball to Wolves in our own defensive half.

Like Tierney's energy on the left. Would like a little more effort from Saka on the right.

Aubameyang the only guy showing much creativity right now.

Luis constantly waving guys forward, seems he's tired of the lateral passing game.

Ceballos disappeared after the first 5-10 minutes. Need to get him on the ball more.

That Tierney-Aubameyang partnership is money.

Lack of possession may prove costly. Not fond of giving up the ball so quickly
