Partey time?

by .

This is going to be a power-post because the week I’m having looks like Denilson in midfield against Stoke.

Mikel Arteta wants Arsene back at the club.

I would like to see him back around us. He was a massive figure for me and he’s someone that I can still learn a lot of things from and I would like to have him closer to us.

Obviously the actual environment doesn’t allow us to do it, but I think he’s a figure that has to be very present in what we do at the football club because he is, in my opinion, the one who had the vision and helped this club to evolve and be what it is today.

The man does not miss with the press. You cannot force him into an error, he’s very, very good with media folk. Pretty sure he’d not be wanting Wenger making decisions, but one day, you have to expect that Wenger will take on a Bobby Charlton like role at Arsenal. He’s an elite figurehead.

Mesut Ozil is now 32. Arsenal.com posted a miserable picture of him and wished him happy returns. All a bit sad really, he’s on the back 9 and clinging on at a club he doesn’t need to be at. It’s so, so boring.

THOMAS PARTEY IS TRAINING AND FIT. He might start, though I find that a bit of a stretch. He’ll be on the bench though… ready to ease our sorrows when we’re 3-0 down after 20 mins.

This game will be interesting. Coming back off the international break in great form is tough. Who knows which City will show. Arteta says they’ve been unlucky in games. No, they haven’t. Leicester spanked them and a team of their calibre shouldn’t be challenged by a side like Leeds. I don’t know what is going on at City, but they have been in a hangover. We could win 2-0 or get our asses absolutely handed to us. You just don’t know which side will show.

The big question mark over team selection will be whether Kieran T will play. It seems pretty clear the club are arguing he had it this summer, so he’s immune… so we’ll see how that pans out. Either way, it’s clear he’s integral to any success we might have. This sort of thing is exactly why international breaks through the season are a lump of bullshit.

Right, really short post. See you tomorrow. x

Did I miss any Arteta decision on where Saliba is going to play?

Seems since Partey signed it’s gone quiet on the Saliba front.

What could Arteta learn from Wenger? Go express yourselves tactics? Bringing back the Colney creche? Tikka Takki crab football? Almost signing elite players? Best Spedos to wear on the beach?

The list is endless!

Bamford10

Pete

Actually, I think the club’s argument re Tierney is that he has tested negative three times since his teammate tested positive and the club will be driving him to London in a private car.

Bamford10

Arteta needs to register his 25-man PL squad by the 20th. However, because Saliba is under 21, I think he can be left off and still play in PL matches. I don’t know if I have that right, though. See article below.

He definitely can’t play in the Europa group stage, as he wasn’t named to that squad.

The comments section of Le Grove is for talking about Arsenal and football, not for harassing other posters. Get a fucking life, mate. Your obsession with me is bizarre, and your questions are fucking dumb. You’ve heard of DM’ing, no? You’ve heard of copy and paste? It’s not that complicated, dipshit.

Let’s return to the subject of football: I will reiterate that I’m glad to see you’ve come around to our view that Lacazette isn’t good enough, that Aubameyang should start through the center, and that Lacazette should be sold. Some of us saw this two years ago.

Bamford10

Upstate One, the club has asked Ozil to make himself open to going elsewhere and he has refused. So your description of the situation isn’t accurate. Two, Ozil has clearly done something to cause him to be persona non grata in Arteta’s eyes, and no, it has nothing to do with China. Three, an honest person who respected the club would not sit around like a leech, serving as a distraction and dividing the fan-base. You might do that, but no self-respecting or club-respecting person would. Only a person who cares only about himself and his ego and money would… Read more »

The idea that having a midfield of Partey, Xhaka and Ceballos is suddenly going to have one or two CM’s pushing play up the field – which is what we all want to see – is not going to happen.” One, if we do see a three-man midfield at some point in the near future, I could see Arteta playing Xhaka as the 6, Partey as the 8 and Ceballos as the 10.

Lol fucking Charlie broke him again. Think this is like the 6th time over the years.

How many days do you think Bam had that post as Dariano ready for us before he actually pulled the trigger? I’m guessing 2 months minimum.

To Bamford, LeGrove is the father that will never accept him but he forever wants to impress.

I remember once he referred to all the “friends” he had here and named them. Not surprisingly not a single one corroborated that claim though. Crickets.

Bamford who are your “friends” here again?

Dissenter

I have to say I’m loving Mikel Arteta more and more as the days go by.
He’s showing the strength of purpose that a good manager ought to have.
He’s leaving out Mesut Ozil from the premier league squad, effectively making him a footballing nonentity. He’s not going to use Arsenal and a spring board to getting another lucrative deal else where next summer. It will be. case of caveat emptor

Like Pedro said the man has been impeccable with the media starting with his first interview.

He’s got the sauce, he’ll be in high demand as a coach for the rest of his career.

Arteta pisses the excellence that Ole drinks. Man is playing chess to the press room checkers, superb linguist and artist in the media room. You know he’s a thinker when his deliberations when injured as a player were to learn another language or deep dive coaching. I’m genuinely enthused to see his evolution with us because there’s an authenticity to his approach that invites fans into his thinking and provides the necessary assurance that the right sort is driving matters. Big, big factor for where the club was/is and beyond. Hopefully Edu can enable the best of that to the… Read more »

Two, most of Charlie’s list is bogus. Most of what he has said there is either (i) factually incorrect or (ii) simply his opinion and therefore irrelevant.

Tai The Gunner

I know one or two people have commented on your appalling attitude but Bamford 10, not sure who the hell you think you are ??.

Everybody has a right to their own opinion so cannot understand where the rudeness is coming from.

Sid

Partey is not a box to box, he is a DM that plays in a team that does not play expansive football.
1. We will still play the same borefest football since we lack technical creative players.

2. We will only have options in holding midfielders Elneny, Xhakalson, Partey. We were an injury away from disaster in this area.

Sid

We will continue playing 343 against top teams, against weaker defensive teams Arteta will try more attacking lineups especially in the 2nd half. He is an extremely conservative manager.

Nigel+Tufnel

Excellent analysis from Sid above.
…. That’s exactly how I see it.

Guns of SF

Partey with every team but AM plays as a B2B, with some good success. There are numerous folks that state this from teammates to coaches etc. For Ghana he is a B2b and with good scoring rate. AM is a very rigid system. I think the draw with Arsenal is that we need some better movement, power and technical skills in the middle. He checks those, so i am sure Arteta considered this and his other “skills” that are not on show case that much. I clearly agree tho, a CAM is what we need badly now. I think we… Read more »

I wish arteta can move to a back four now we have partey. Having an extra defender/midfielder like AMN and Saka is good but I think we might have more penetration with a winger instead of that. I also want to see Auba through the middke dlanked by saka and pepe and willian behind him. If everyone was fit this would be my team. Leno Bellerin, Luiz, Gabriel, Tierney Partey, Ceballos pepe, Willian, Saka Auba I think we can definitely breakdown most defensive teams with this. But for city a 343 is merited Leno Holding, Luiz, Gabriel Bellerin, Partey, Ceballos,… Read more »

CazOnARola

Transitions are the most important aspect of the game in the sense that how you perform on those invariably has an impact on the game. Transitions include cutting of counter stracks but also launching you own and catching opposition out of shape. If your see Partet he ticks the boxes in both. I’m not worried about him getting used to epl, but more about how quickly he adapts to his team mates. The central half spaces are the most dangerous as you can pass the ball to either wings and open up teams. Partey has a habit of releasing the… Read more »

SP

The upcoming league fixture are extremely important. City away , Leicester home and United away. So don’t think Arteta will tinker with the formation. 3-4-3 is what it’s going to be.

SP

Atleast the fans feel confident now despite these tough fixtures. Under Wenger such games used to result in humiliation.

Sid

Partey is a good DM average as a box to box, he can hold the ball but is questionable in the final 3rd thats why Saul is box to box for AM.

Sid

Expect many draws , opposition managers now know Artetas tactics.
If the manager is confident enough to use Pepe and Saka on the wings frequently thats they only way to catch oppisition managers offguard.

þorkell einarsson

The lunatics seem to have taken this forum over. What a bore !!

Pierre

How Arsenal approach the game tomorrow depends on one player ….Debruyne. If Debruyne is starting , then we mist protect the space between centre back amf full back as he is lethal of he is allowed to drift into the channwl to whop on crosses. Will mean we will have to play with a wing back system with our left wing back playing very deep to thwart Debruyne. If Debruyne is injured, we can approach the game with a slightly different mentality and be more aggressive offensively and possibly even take to game to city. I believe that City without… Read more »

Arsenal need a “focussed and pragmatic” manager. You don’t win league titles without that
approach.

Benrhama may or may not be someone who is an upgrade on what we have go, but his track
record is playing in a lower league and he would be a speculation.

If Arsenal are going to progress in short term we need to recruit “proven talent” in the two
positions along spine where we are at moment weak.

AFC Forever

Emirates, you make a good point. We all have to remember Arteta has inherited most of these players. A lot of his work is coaching them in the way he wants to work which takes time. There will be positions that cause him a problem because the players he has aren’t best suited for that. It is also difficult to build partnerships between players if, again, they aren’t long term. This is why it takes Managers time. What doesn’t help are the fans who demand instant results and thing football is simply a case of picking what they consider are… Read more »

Kris

“Obviously the actual environment doesn’t allow us to do it,”

LOL
Arteta will go into politics one day, no doubt about it.
But, yeah, wait a couple of years, then give Wenger a role that doesn’t involve any important decisions.

Also, Partey definitely IS a B2B, but not at Atletico as Saul is the kind of B2B Atletico needs to counterbalance their already extremely defensive approach. For EPL Partey is perfect for B2B, though.

Nelson

I guess Arteta will play Auba, Laca and Willian as our front three. He won’t trust Saka and Pepe yet. Pepe may sub in for Laca after 75 mins if we are behind.

AFC Forever

Nelson
Yes, likely to play Lacazete because he trusts him. Works hard to pressing for the team & Arteta usually withdraws him when he feels he is spent. At the moment he probably sees Pepe as a game changer, again probably trusts Willian more.

Jim Lahey

“I guess Arteta will play Auba, Laca and Willian as our front three. He won’t trust Saka and Pepe yet. Pepe may sub in for Laca after 75 mins if we are behind.”

Nothing like benching a player who has just scored then complaining about his inconstancy

Emiratesstroller

AFC Forever

Lacazette may not be world class, but he is an intelligent striker and more than capable of scoring 15-20 goals a season. At the moment I don’t think that Nketiah is capable of delivering goals in EPL games at similar level.

Personally I think that Martinelli will outperform both these players when he reaches maturity.

Pepe’s performance when he played against Sheffield United suggests to me that he has the
potential to perform to a high level. However, his performance level is currently erratic. He
needs to be more consistent than we have seen sofar.

london gunner

Emirates

I fully agree on this point

“Arsenal need a “focussed and pragmatic” manager. You don’t win league titles without that

Regarding lower league talent I think that’s where the best deals can be made for the future. Gone are the times the championship was full of Donkeys. You can essentially get premier league to elite-level talent now for cut-rate prices.
