Cunha has better output than £115m Isak, all whilst playing for a significantly worse team and having much tougher fixtures to start the season

We’re going to have to play Kiwor RCB and #5 at RB for a few games but apart from that, our squad is in a pretty healthy state for rotation this month whilst maintaining these same dynamics

The 2-4-4 is by far our best system and what fit our players the best:
-Our best goal scorers(Wingers) are the highest players up the pitch
-All our CMs thrive more in a double pivot
-FBs are allowed to stay wide instead of inverting
-The CF and AM can dictate play from deep

Raya became a victim of our OOP success in 23/24, despite his contributions to this being big. Facing few shots led people to think he’s not a good stopper. But his Brentford days was evidence of his credentials in this regard. This season he’s just gone up a level in all areas.

This club are actually giving Trossard a new contract. Why can’t we ever move on our bench players when their stock is still high?

The return of Riccardo Calafiori will be massive for #Arsenal.
He brings personality, aggression and huge technicality to our first phase build up, and moves up with possession.
With Merino and Martinelli coming into form, we can transform our left hand side after the break. #AFC

I am going out on a limb here and making the bold claim he is pretty good at this and Arsenal have missed him in the team.

Martinelli- Merino- Calafiori pod- balance really can be that simple.
Wide outlet is a strong footed overlapper pushing the dangerous SS winger inside whilst the progressive second ball winning CM sits to protect the space.
We’ve been robbed of this.

He doesn't suit this iteration of Arsenal much low-key. This style of stable dominance, with methodical progression through the wings is actually anathema to the things he happens to be good at. His entire thing is beating that first line of pressure and spraying it to someone in transition 1/x
One of the topics covered on the data review podcast was Thomas Partey and how he is playing well (but still not nearly what he was at the peak) but it has lined up with the team playing less well.

The closest approximation to Camavinga on the market.
You don’t have to sacrifice legs in your DLP scouting- having the left footed CM that drops outside the middle third with his vision + ability to receive in the block.

I don’t think any DLC should win but only making that exception NOW after those two got nothing feels like FromSoft bias, whether it actually is or not
