Vvd is right footed plays lcb for liverpool timber is right footed can play left back. Probably the best left back in man United history in Dennis irwin was right footed. I don't agree with partey playing rb but inverts into cm for more attacking players in attacking transition he's just woeful at tracking back to defend so slow and lethargic moves like merino.
@@Coopdegrasit's a completely different use case. Inverted wingers get you closer to the goal by cutting in and beating their man. A full back on the wrong side creates progression issues and makes it harder to retain the ball whilst playing out of the back because the fullback is a pressing trigger. Case in point, Timbers passing accuracy was terrible at left back but good on the right hand side.
I see Merino running like a crazy man up and down, and it looks like it is not in his nature to make these runs. Because of that all offensive moves are really slow. He slows down the attack for 2 seconds.
This has to be the funniest thing I have heard in my life Merino is 28 bro and don’t ever even try and draw comparisons between this guy and Sergio your football iq is in the bin
I dont know what you guys see in Merino, but so far he looks really slow and at one stage he actually looked burnt out. I think this league is just too physically demanding for him, hope I'm wrong. But early assessment is that he is not an upgrade on Xhaka or Partey for that matter. He hasn't elevated that midfield for me, if anything he's dragged it down a bit.
No pre season as he was in the Euros till the finals. Joined a new team late in a new country, different philosophy, got injured (shoulder) just when he was about to make his debut, sidelined for weeks…Came back and has been in and out of the team. Why can’t you analyze him and Calafiori as well applying the above logic? Is it too hard to be rational in your thinking?
Yes he gives us an edge in passing backwards and slowing are game down to a snails pace . You blew transfer funds on a left back another defensive midfielder and signed a back up keeper for cup games that’s cup tied . All we wanted was a striker
I agree with too many backpasses; too slow and also he is super afraid of scoring. but can i prove and understands the system of play. needs more minutes andd self belief
Arteta speak the truths, Merino is not at Arsenal levels needed, some he gives balls away more than 6 times in a single game, maybe he will get used to the pace of EPL culture but not yet ready for Battles in PL
Really thats a tactical problem.. Literally our transition is slow.. Liverpool transition almost hitting 180mph in 4 sec. With about 5 players at the time.... I'm just asking if we can improve our. Transitions
Against crystal palace, i saw him return the ball which had entered the box to the wings, always playing safe...i really don't know he adds to the team, may be passing backwards...this is the reason as to why partey is played at right back...man needs to start watching replays of his team
Anyone who thinks Merino is "bang average" or "mediocre" DON'T KNOW BALL! Same people that watch MMA and think that the on the mat, jiu jitsu tactical battles is just "two men rolling around on the floor". NO IDEA what they are watching. Simple as that. Watch another sport. Footy aint for you!

@ I just think he’s too slow at the moment maybe he needs more time to adapt but Parteys been our best midfielder this season so it’s frustrating when he has to play right back. Merino just hasn’t convinced me he can contribute enough for a title yet.
This's why I always said Arteta's a press conference manager, cuz he knows how to manipulate some of his gullible fans. I can 100% assure anybody if he dare use Merino in that midfield today and put Thomas partey right back, we will get floog by Newcastle easily. This guy doesn't seem to have any ambition of getting this club to win trophies, it seems like all he learn in his Coaching career is to challenge and never win anything, and people make excuses for him that he's gotten us challenging again. It's ridiculous, if he was serious by now, he has demanded that board to complete a deal b4 even this match today let alone the coming ones. It's so frustrating!
Looks like the spark has gone from arteta, the last two failed title runs were too much for him, the players are looking exhausted this season, he should had buy two players up front to give energy in the team and compete with martinelli n trossard who are underperforming... what happened with edu is a bit weird as well....
This coach need to stop taking things easy and delusional that he’s good when he’s yet to win a major . It’s high time he gets the pressure that Ten Hah faced . Deliver a major or get the boot ! We are tiered frustrating for 5 years . Thanks

I need convincing because my eyes are telling me another story Mikel! I hope Merino turns it around and have a successful career at Arsenal
If Arteta says he is good he is Good… but watching him right now he looks slow n unfit and safe player who can turn slowly n hold the ball which destroys our dynamic
Stop playing Party on the right defender, bench Martinelli until he is mentally sound in assisting the team for a goal; Merino should give him time before a first-time player
Simply defending Merino for nothing. Frankly speaking he is an average player who is so slow on the ball and likes to pass back and side ways. The amount of money spent on him plus the amount that the team can get form selling Martinell and Trossard should be used for buying two quality players. I have no hope for the team.
How about this mikel / odegaard is are best attacker and defender play him number 8 and nwaneri number 10 rice number 6 sign a good winger maybe olmo on loan Havertz as a goal poacher not Inverse number 9 and martinelli on the wing its not rocket science your just too scared my friend xx😊
Arteta just stop!!! Merino is no more that a squad player. Arteta likes him because he reminds him of himself, slow average player at a big club. Not the level required for a starter. Artetas recruitment has been a shambles with only 8 out of 31 signings being successful
You say that now, he’ll have a run of good games and you’ll flip your rhetoric. And then he’ll have a bad game and again, you’ll flip.-That’s just how simple humans are
Fire Arteta even if he wins carabao cup only...15 million is too much to pay for that... he yells all game, has sucked up all the creativity. Players look scared to make a mistake
There you go again Mr. Press conference manager. Only your gullible fans will fall for this crap you saying here. I dare you use T partey right back today and as usual put your Merino in that midfield, Newcastle will have a easy win today, and just wait at their ground to finish you up.
