Why on earth does Arteta keep saying he is 'proud' of his team. Who says he isn't. One could also say Villa dropped their performance first half and upped their game in the second half and pulled themselves back into it.
Someone need to contact Arteta and tell him to stop put Thomas the train their best medium to long passer at right back. His lack of pace made it easy for Watkins to score.
@@UrinrinO it’s your own managers fault. It’s well documented he has weird ideas like playing YNWA in a training session, hiring pick pockets to rob his own players, or telling injured players to walk into the dressing room before a game so the opponent thinks they’re playing. Not to mention blaming the freaking ball for his loss to Newcastle. He makes it easy to feed the trolls.
Konate is one of the best centre backs in the league when Virgil is next to him. Leaders make the players around them better. How you don't realise that is beyond me.
@@kevjames4236mate konate I’m been great since Dortmund and was great when VVD was out injured dont compare konate to Gabriel lol he’s not as good as you all rate him I’m an Arsenal fan and I don’t rate him as highly he’s good but he’s not great
Villa were missing Pau Torres and McGinn too by the way. It's not just Arsenal that didn’t have their main CB out in this game. Which I'm sure ESPN will mention Edit: Villa even lost Onana to injury during the game and again no mention of that too
@dan7972-k9m why not? Aren't both players just as important to Villa's success as Saka and Saliba? There's an arrogance with fans of the so called big 6 at times. They think only their players are important to their team's successes. Only they can use the excuse of missing their star players. All other teams aren't allowed to use that excuse. Facts are Villa went away to Arsenal without their star midfielder and CB. Lost Onana to injury during the game. And fought back from 2 goals down to get a point. That should also be the headline
If Saliba is out for 2 months, we are done in the EPL. I wonder if if him being out affects us in buying a striker or not this month. This one really hurt and losing Saliba long term is devastating.
Arsenal's lack of squad depth really cost them today. But there's still no excuse for a team as good as Arsenal to drop a 2-goal lead at home, even against Villa.
If you were in LaLiga you would have been relegated becuz you wouldn't even be able to buy 2 players..Prem fans are hilarious ASF..They spend over £500M yet they complain.. absolute TWTS
they lack star power too even if they were all healthy they still would not win the league because they are utterly predicatable past to wingers take on backs try shot from the side or whip in long ball to fowards with no aerial skill(other than havertz and he is no Oshimen) over and over until the game ends
@@jackrobinson-wq2jn Liverpool have had as many (or more) injuries as Arsenal, they just haven't allowed the injuries to significantly diminish their performance.
@brianbates212 sorry but thats just not true the only Arsenal player not to miss atleast 1 game through injury this season is Kiwior.... Arsenal have had 27 Injuries (the most in the league)..... Liverpool have had 14 injuries.....
@ The number of injuries is only part of the injury picture (and not close to being the most important part). The number of matches missed is far more important than a numerical list of various injuries. For example, Konate missing 8 matches is much more significant than Saliba missing 1 yet your count would rate them the same. There's also the question of player significance since the 3rd choice left back picking up a knock and missing a match is counted the same as the starting goalkeeper.
Doesnt buy a recognised number 9, spends 60 million on havertz even though he doesnt suit that position.....clearly knew last summer arsenal needed more than just saka and odengard to be the creative ones, yet is complaining about squad depth. Premier league managers make me laugh at times, cos they complained when there was only 3 subs, now its 5, complain about fixtures but refuse to use their full squads in games and only wanna play a select few, but then complain they dont have squad depth when results dont go their way???
THIS PART BRUV I SAID THE SAME THING ABOVE GLAD I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE ARTETA HAS MISMANAGED THIS TEAM IMMENSELY IF IT WAS NOT FOR THE LARGE BUDGET THE OWNERS HAVE GIVEN HIM HE WOULDVE BEEN FIRED YEARS AGO.

That’s why you always have to keep pressing at 2-0 Champions don’t sit back at 2-0 but go for 3 This team failed to do that many times this season - even when we did win. This is what happens.
More to the point he missed 8 matches in all comps; Liverpool went 6-2-0 in those matches. Contrast that performance level to Arsenal's results when missing one or more of Saka, Saliba, and Odegaard and you see why Liverpool is comfortably ahead of the field in both the PL and the UCL...
What could Saliba have done??? Arsenal has lost couple of matches this season with Saliba on the pitch. In 2023 they said it was beacuse Saliba was injured that was why Arsenal did not win the league. Last year,Saliba was there and played every game and they still didn't win. So what are you talking about. Espn punditry is out of steam
@pete_chalk they had Kiwior, Zinchenko and Tierney on the bench. If you include Calafiori and Lewis, that means Arsenal have 6 senior left backs or defenders capable of playing left back. Maybe even 7 if you include Timber. But only a couple who can the same job on the right side. Isn't that a sign of terrible squad planning?
The Gunners should be able to sign a new center back before the deadline for the January winter transfer window closes in early February if they are to compete in the league. There will be a new center back in place of William Salilba due to the hamstring injury that has sidelined Saliba.
Arteta refuse to bring in top tier talent instead he chooses swiss army knife players like havertz, rice, sterling, merino, ect. who are NOT paticullary great at anything he chooses players like HIMSELF(when he played) it is so annoying because any time they go against real talent i.e. ollie watkins , haaland, kane ect they get killed because they do not have any real strikers or players like (Cole or RAPHINA OR MBAPPE) who can create chances by themselves, so tired of ARTETA STYLE OF PLAY AND TEAM SELECTIONS !!!! ESPECIALLY SINCE HE COULD LITERALLY GET ANY PLAYER IN THE WORLD SMFH.. soryy for the long comment just sick of the same story every year a ton of wins except when it matters.
As a gunners fan it’s disappointing result but I’m proud of this team. They have objectively been very unlucky both on and off the field this season. We are lucky to have Arteta. COYG
history repeat itself. the past two season where we finished 2nd, saliba was injured and without depth. then we dont have strikers. now, combination of all.
that is on the GAFFER, we have had these issues for years he is unwilling to fix them he rather sign gadget players like merino and sterling.. ARTETA IS A JOKE IM GLAD HE HAS BEEN EXPOSED FOR THE EGO MANIAC HE IS!!! WE SHOULD HAVE NEVER LET BALOGUN WALK BUT ARTETA COULD NOT GET ALONG WITH HIM SAME WITH NELSON AND THE WHITE BOY ON BOURNEMOUTH NOW F ARTETA THEY NEED A GM WHO DOES NOT LISTEN TO ARTETA PLAYER CHOICES AND SIGNS PLAYERS FOR THE CLUB NOT FOR THE COACH
For all the criticism of Havertz, he has 17 goals and 8 assists in his last 31 Premier League matches going back to last February. In all seriousness, if Arsenal do eventually bring in "an out and out number 9", Havertz has very ironically set the bar low key very high while he gets mocked non-stop. Put 17 goals and 8 assists in 31 Premier League matches next to virtually any other attacking players name and you’d never hear the banter Havertz gets.
this is why the statistics do not tell the whole picture: take a moment and tell us against what teams those statistics have been registered. i’ll wait here. This is a run of the mill player at best.
I get that. But in comparison to Salah and Haaland and teams that are challenging for major title. Not every team. Just other big teams. Also how many goals are winning goals. Or how many came when the team couldn’t find anything and it was a moment of brilliance from him? It’s not that he isn’t good, just not good enough to take Arsenal to the next level.
The real question is when will someone who can get in contact with Arteta ask him why does he keep putting his best long and medium passer Thomas Partey at right back? I'm not even laughing its a serious question.
@@Benno909 Kieran Tierney and Ayden Heaven are capable full backs yet neither has smell the pitch. Partey does not offer much going forward out wide because he's too slow to track by in case of a counter attack.
@@cheviidevii Kiwior was another option. Arteta cries about a thin squad but unfortunately only has faith in 15 players and keeps out the rest. One sub when you're chasing a game is ridiculous. That said, I never went to see Sterling in an Arsenal shirt again.
Arteta's reaction after losing points same like Pep, always praising his players, proud of the performance, blame the luck or injuries, still he has a chance to win the league because Liverpool will surely drop points!
HIM AND PEP ARE THE SAME EGO MANIACS WHO HAVE TO BE THE STAR OF THE CLUB NOTICE BOTH OF THEM FORCE THIER TEAMS TO PALY IN A TIGHT SYSTEM WITHOUT ANY CREATIVITY BECAUSE THEY ARE CONTROLL FREAKS BUT ATLEAST PEP IS NOT SCARED TO SIGN CLASS PLAYERS ARTETA IS SO SCARED OF BEING OVERSHADOWED EVER SINCE AUBA THAT HE ONLY SIGNS SQUAD PLAYERS
Arsenals performance means absolutely nothing after throwing away 2 points, and Arteta once again must resign as he is clearly not the man to deliver titles ... but more pain ,misery, and more humiliation for years to come...... Arteta out!!!
Have you ever heard the saying, "Keep hanging around the barbarshop, soon you will get a haircut."? They will will it soon, their team is stretched due to injuries, yet only 2 defeats.
I think yes everyone played the same games fa cup and the othere cup but I’d if you look at it in the fa cup all top teams played with there young teams
I wonder, if it was Man Utd who drew 2-2 against Villa, the whole narrative would be.."United disappointing, utterly rubbish, average bunch of player, deserved to lose, blahh, blahh blahh.." Oh the biased punditry in this world......
They literally said Arsenal had 2 midfielders and a rb at cb then go on and criticize a really thin squad. Look at the bench for crying out loud 😂. Funny they didn’t speak on the NON HANDBALL disallowed goal. Also comparing Konate to Saliba is CRAZY work! 🤣
Arsenal play 3 matches in 6 days and one all the way to penalties. Newcastle plays 3 matches in 8 days no penalties and more time to rest. Newcastle cry about being exhausted everyone forgives them despite losing 4-1 at home meanwhile Arsenal cry about exhaustion and they are being punished despite less rest and a Thinner squad than Newcastle. ESPN bias is so obvious.
Yes, we have to treat Arsenal who finishes 2nd twice in a row the same with Newcastle who didn't even make it to Europe last season. Yup. That makes perfect sense. 😂😂
Stop making excuses for arsenal.they are not as good as you think period.6 years project with the same coach and they cannot survive 2-0 lead just because they were missing 1 player?
Arsenal fans are so hilarious 😂 Everytime they lose, they yap *"we need a striker, we need 2 wingers, we need a painter, we need a dancer and a rapper"* But when they win, it's *"Trossard is a genius mannn... who needs a striker when you have Havertz?"* Del ūded flip flop Reactionary TWTS 😂
Incredible performance, we dominated the game, there was only one team playing to win...and such like comments are Mikel's default comments whenever he's pulled aside to interviews when his team doesn't get best results possible!
Kiwor was fit and could've played CB. That would allowed Timber to play RB. There's also 2 fullbacks on the bench in Tierney and Zinchenko. Arteta has always had options, but he always overthinks and has an issue - once he decides a player isn't perfect, they never play again. Sometimes you have to make due. I'm sure ESR or Fabio would've came in handy today but Arteta doesn't know how to properly rotate in a way that keeps players sharp and keeps them happy.
Craig actually not everyone had FA Cup opposition like Manchester United. Villa didn't get an EPL level opposition in the FA Cup 6 days ago. Is Villa in the Carabao Cup Semifinals? So Villa didn't play the midweek when Arsenal faced Newcastle or did they?
We played West Ham... and either you are a title level team or you are not. We are not, but we are building our team, so we'll scrap for every point. That's the type of football you have to play, you were great first half especially and I've no idea why we held back so much, mayhap due to injuries but when we upped our energy and game, the goals came too. So, in the end, you didn't bury the game, and it's a fair result because goals win points. End of.
Arsenal showing all their kinks.. Saliba is the guy in the back..Saka can still strive without Olegard but not so much Olegard without saka ...Havertz is a Cheat... Rice over ratted ...not enough depth ...that Rice money could of bought 3 solid players if you shopping in the proper way...
Arteta is delusional. Always says he loves the team, always proud of ghe team, but the results dont say much. Seriously, Arteta,s selection, huh i dont understand. At this rate we will be knocked out of the champions league.
imagine being a team that every time you lose *ONE* player in a position (Saliba in defense, or Odegaard in midfield, or Saka in attack) that becomes your *prime* excuse for dropping points or not being good laughable 😂
Only way these cartoons on ESPNFC panel start complaining about games and injuries is when Virgil Van Djik will get an hamstring injury out for 3 months and liverpool go back to 5th position then all this logic goes out of the window and cry babies come out crying on the panel 🖕🏻
Now let's not talk about the title contender okay it's done Liverpool will lift the trophy 🏆 I'm only concerned when did the stubborn Arteta signs the Striker, it cost us two leagues title.
Arteta is now ten hag in disguise 🤣 keeps praising the team when he knows the team is not good enough to win anything. If Arsenal management is smart, sack this man already now and bring in someone quick 😏
He's living in denial. You can't throw away games and call me n “immense performance”. I pray he makes signings to strengthen his squad otherwise its doom’s day at the end of the season……🤷♂️🤷♂️
City is a shadow of themselves and you'd think it'd be Arsenal's time to shine but no! 😂 Something always interferes in Arsenal's hopes of winning the league 😂 they're just allē rgic at this point Let's stop pretending

It's a Pep thing. Whenever Man City underperforms, Pep says he's so proud of his team. Arteta does a similar thing.
Why did they cut out the important part of Arteta's post-match conference? He said the earth rotated that's why they lost this time around

Arteta has always had options, but he always overthinks and has an issue - once he decides a player isn't perfect, they never play again. Sometimes you have to make due. I'm sure ESR or Fabio would've came in handy today but Arteta doesn't know how to properly rotate in a way that keeps players sharp and keeps them happy.
Try again next season 😅😂
Immense 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂yeh losing a 2 goal lead when your chasing the title when where rival just won extending the gap, is immense 😂😂😂
Liv are steam rollers
Craig actually not everyone had FA Cup opposition like Manchester United. Villa didn't get an EPL level opposition in the FA Cup 6 days ago. Is Villa in the Carabao Cup Semifinals? So Villa didn't play the midweek when Arsenal faced Newcastle or did they?
We played West Ham... and either you are a title level team or you are not.
We are not, but we are building our team, so we'll scrap for every point. That's the type of football you have to play, you were great first half especially and I've no idea why we held back so much, mayhap due to injuries but when we upped our energy and game, the goals came too. So, in the end, you didn't bury the game, and it's a fair result because goals win points. End of.
Netflix fc ( arsenal) see you next season for the title😅😅😅
Arsenal showing all their kinks.. Saliba is the guy in the back..Saka can still strive without Olegard but not so much Olegard without saka ...Havertz is a Cheat... Rice over ratted ...not enough depth ...that Rice money could of bought 3 solid players if you shopping in the proper way...
Steve! Please don’t be biased…you are so silly, for sure arsenal players are tired…you don’t need to have PhD to realize that!
Arteta is delusional. Always says he loves the team, always proud of ghe team, but the results dont say much. Seriously, Arteta,s selection, huh i dont understand. At this rate we will be knocked out of the champions league.
I'm Proud of my players..😂..is there anything else..?
These two, especially Steve, are the dumbest pundits in the world.
Arteta needs help. The squad is weak and needs investment from the owners and board.
You might want to look at how much has been spent under Arteta before crying about needing more investment...
Craig should put a sock in it......he hates Liverpool, and gives Arsenal excuses
imagine being a team that every time you lose *ONE* player in a position (Saliba in defense, or Odegaard in midfield, or Saka in attack) that becomes your *prime* excuse for dropping points or not being good
laughable 😂
All of this group are against arsenal…I am tired of them…please invite unbiased people!
If City wins tomorrow, they are only 6 points behind Arsenal
Arsenal are bang average with great PR.
Only way these cartoons on ESPNFC panel start complaining about games and injuries is when Virgil Van Djik will get an hamstring injury out for 3 months and liverpool go back to 5th position then all this logic goes out of the window and cry babies come out crying on the panel 🖕🏻
Now let's not talk about the title contender okay it's done Liverpool will lift the trophy 🏆
I'm only concerned when did the stubborn Arteta signs the Striker, it cost us two leagues title.
Arsenal lost because the ball was TOO round
THIS IS CRAZY HOW COME LİVERPOOL DID NOT GET A SİNGLE RED CARD KONATE AND NUNEZ RECLESS FOOLS IN THE BRENTFORD GAME.
No frank GREAT 🤭
Saliba out = Konate out .. deal with it. That's football.
Arteta is now ten hag in disguise 🤣 keeps praising the team when he knows the team is not good enough to win anything. If Arsenal management is smart, sack this man already now and bring in someone quick 😏
He's living in denial. You can't throw away games and call me n “immense performance”. I pray he makes signings to strengthen his squad otherwise its doom’s day at the end of the season……🤷♂️🤷♂️
City is a shadow of themselves and you'd think it'd be Arsenal's time to shine but no! 😂 Something always interferes in Arsenal's hopes of winning the league 😂 they're just allē rgic at this point Let's stop pretending
Arteta talks rubbish again ......story teller
Arteta should be sacked ESPN none of these cowboys say about arteta about the money bribe cowboys
Arsenal are bottling the league once again
arsenal will be 6th come end of season n arteta sacked
lol another excuse.
👀⚽🤣🍼
We all know Arsenal are excuse fc ⛳
