Casemiro doesn't want to jump. Why? Because Yoro didn't jump behind him, so he retreats. The indecision creates a spare man in front of United's block AND in between it. Fiorentina progress play and should exploit the high line, but don't play in behind.

Part of Arsenal’s open-play creativity issue is the absence of a player like this to open the entire game up. Risk-takers create transitions. Transitions are where most goals are scored. The lack of them is why all Arsenal forwards have average output.

This guy is going to score so many goals for Arsenal. 4 shots in 47 minutes before Arteta cleverly took him off to preserve him for Sunday. You name the phase of play, Gyökeres thrives in it. A constant threat in transition AND against low blocks.

Reece James might play with a lopsided angle bias in midfield due to his development at right back, but my God when he can turn and face the play then he is just like Trent with his passing. All whilst being more powerful defensively. Crazy, crazy talent.

Transition monster. Ruthless finisher. Mental giant who creates separation in the box over and over again. Gyökeres does it ALL! 🔴⚪️

Arsenal with a transitional threat 🤤 Gyökeres links it, Saka hero-ball. Rice showing why it is so important to wait until as late as possible to release the pass so he can let Trossard shoot close to goal. Trossard displaying textbook 'minimum width'.

How many Arsenal players can do this reliably? Many have the ball-striking, vision, and range for for it (Trossard, Zubimendi, Rice, Nwaneri, MLS, White, Nørgaard, & Saka). But how many can consistently create separation to actually do it? Eze offers it.

Lammens profiles well for Amorim’s system because of his ability to launch balls deep into the opposition’s half. Him and Šeško will have a strong relationship. United’s best quality under Amorim is how they play direct and have many numbers on 2nd balls.

Individuality. It's nice to attract more than one opposition player at a time before popping the ball off to free up your teammates in space. It's generous behaviour, you know? Arsenal lack that trait. Eze excels at providing it. A match made in heaven.

Iwobi has been incredibly influential for Marco Silva and Fulham this season. Fulham are very dynamic down their left with Iwobi dropping outside the lines and dictating from deep. Sessegnon moves high. King drifts into the vacated space. Common pattern.

Xabi Alonso’s father was a manager. He played as a #6, like many other top coaches. The ‘lighthouse’. He played in England, Spain, Germany. Coached by Pep, Ancelotti, Mourinho, Benitez, del Bosque, Aragonés… Destined for greatness with that education.

Scott McTominay is the optimal football litmus test. If you rate him, you know the game. There are so many clubs that would kill for his qualities, whether that be as a double #6 or as a #8.

De Bruyne stayed high because he was a natural #10. Ødegaard doesn’t because he’s closer to a #8 in profile. Bernardo Silva is a legend of the game but Arsenal would have the same issues with him in the #10 as they do Ødegaard. It’s a profiling issue…

Exceptional mentality from Gary O’Neil. Eddie Howe did similar before arriving at Newcastle and he came back into management a much better coach.

Instead of laying it to Gabriel, Rice skips him out and passes straight to Raya. Raya does the same. Timber then controls an awkward ball and wins a free kick. 81 minutes. 1-0 down. In a chaotic atmosphere amidst Newcastle's direct style. MENTAL GIANTS!

Arsenal's block is too deep here. That is because Gabriel Magalhães leads Arsenal's line. He is CRUCIAL to this team. Saliba needs to become more vocal and lead the line. Ødegaard is also missed - Nwaneri not leading from the front. Mikel goes crazy 👇

Big Hürzeler fan. Too many modern coaches focus on positional play and total perfection with the ball and reduce defending to counter-pressing once possession is lost and locking on man-to-man in other moments. That’s disrespectful. That ain’t Hürzeler.

Massively rooting for Liam Rosenior. Why? Because he is his own man with his own belief system and he does what he believes is right. That got him the Chelsea job where he has shown TOP potential. So what if nobodies don’t like it and vilify him?

The benefits of risk-takers in the final third for an elite positional play team 👇 Play breaks down, and it opens up opportunities to counter-press which opens up spaces to exploit in transition. A weapon Arsenal lacked without Gyökeres, Eze, & Madueke.

“(Eze is) a player that needs to be in touch with the ball.” Arteta knows. He always knows. Trust him. Trust him with your life. He will not let you down.

Against a man-to-man press, you must be dynamics with players who can manipulate the ball under pressure to create passing angles (Mosquera), players who can dribble and evade in 1v1 duels (Nwaneri), and players who can play inside and outside (Madueke).
