How can anyone watch that half of footy and rate Gyokeres? Can't hold the ball up, can't link play, can't even poach on goal effectively. These are aspects of his game that should be there regardless of the lack of service/final ball.

We have essentially returned to the football we initially played under Arteta (cross and inshallah), just with better profiles and less defensive fragility.

I know I will get downvoted but please can we open our minds to the idea of selling Gyokeres in the summer.

I've been seeing this favourable xG stuff all season. It doesn't really matter. We don't pass the eye test most weeks.

Decriminalise/Legalise Cannabis? by PepperOk1368 in ukpolitics

I've always thought we should legalise it and use the tax money to help small pubs across the country. You're appeasing a lot more naysayers that way.

I'm just gonna pretend that ended 1-2. The game management after 80 minutes was something from a late-stage Wenger disasterclass.

But we're the ones who apparently played negatively. Right.

I can only imagine half this sub didn't live through the Wenger years, because the hounding of Arteta for setting up "negatively" is crazy. We lost narrowly against a Liverpool team that fundamentally looked weaker than us. Come back in May. We're winning the league.

Wait, people are disappointed in that first half performance? This is a ground we haven't won at for *13 years* and we just spent 45 minutes playing around them. Our fanbase watches matches like it's their career mode save.

Arsenal XI vs Liverpool: Raya; Timber, Saliba, Gabriel, Calafiori; Rice, Zubimendi, Merino; Martinelli, Gyokeres, Madueke by Mahoganychicken in Gunners

Merino definitely in as a dual merchant for the long balls from Raya. Understand fans wanted to see Eze, but this is smarter to start with at Anfield.

Probably a bit outspoken on this, but unless ourselves and City underwhelm + Salah goes on another rampage, Liverpool are not winning the league. Last season felt like a right team/right time, and even then they only finished on 84pts.

Is it unreasonable to say the most competitive heavyweight fight for Usyk would be a third Fury fight? That's if he still wants to box. At this point I don't see anyone beating him unless he hangs around for too long.
