"Locked down Saka" = in Spence's pocket
I think robbie love more arteta than his wife 😂
Arsenal was not very creative even against Spurs; they looked very predictable.
They need a player like Wirtz
If it was a friendly why were each team smashing each other pause
Even if Arsenal had the best striker, the best midfielder, and the best winger in the world, we still wouldn’t win anything—not even the League Cup. You know why? Because the way we play is simply too slow. Our transitions are sluggish, and we rely too heavily on the right flank. There’s no play through the middle, and our overuse of crosses makes us too predictable. Trust me—until we start playing more direct football, nothing will change.
I’m an Arsenal fan, and I believe we have the quality to win the league even without new signings. The problem isn't the players—it’s Arteta. His system is too slow and rigid. Just look at Max Dowman—he’ll be wasted under Arteta. We should be using a double pivot in midfield, but he insists on a single pivot, which leaves us exposed. We concede soft goals and struggle to recover because once the opponent scores, they sit back in a low block, and we respond with endless sideways passing, no urgency, and no creativity. Again—not a player issue, but a tactical one.
Take Gyökeres, for example. He might only score 10 goals—not because he lacks talent, but because the manager doesn’t know how to use him properly. I know the season hasn’t started yet, but preseason already shows the same problems. Arteta won’t change. There’s no Plan B. He’s obsessed with possession and GA metrics.
Ødegaard should be playing centrally, not on the right. How is he supposed to assist the striker from out wide? That’s why the left side of our attack often looks chaotic—because our playmaker is isolated on the right. Everyone praises Saka—and rightly so—but he benefits from Ødegaard’s support. Meanwhile, Martinelli gets no help on the left, then people criticize him for being ineffective. Of course he’ll struggle.
If Ødegaard continues to play out wide, Arsenal will collapse. We should aim for 4th place at best this season. Berta has done his part—now it’s the manager holding us back.
Same old bullshit.. send the ball to saka to play a terrible cross for a corner
Imagine this guy was the manager this season 😂😂
All am saying is Man Utd look sharp.
Get Eze his a natural #10
It's a friendly🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
He don't make it to christmas
…. Arsenal can dream of winning the PL.
Wow the hate brigade is out eh?
Rob is the new Ty
If you would rather listen/watch a reasoned/sensible response to the pre seasons games rather than the ridiculous theatrics from clowns like this,check out Adrian Clarke or Charles Watts podcast.
Champions of Hong Kong you'll never sing that
@christopher kilcourse
Sorry to say! It isn't a friendly If you are playing your rivals.
Friendly equals Demo Robbie…you don't use preseason to play weak football!
You're worried because of on pre season loss. Get a grip on yourself mate. That was not the team that starts in the PL
Arteta out!!! 5:30
5:35
YNWA
Arteta out!!! 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 1:05
Fraudteta leading you lads to 5th this year trust me
United beat City in a friendly before City’s 100 point season. Means nothing.
Looks like Arteta has affected walking malteasers' ability to think logically 😂😂
Lee’s heart doctor must be shaking his head. Pre season but he’s already turned a shade of red 😂
Lee is completely right, the football is dead, it has been for the last two seasons and watching us play the same way does not give me excitement for the upcoming season. It is predictable, boring and will prove ineffective with Liverpool and Chelsea playing good attacking football that will breach our defense. if we cannot score because we are too predictable then we will not win the title. Arteta has to change something.
Lee Is Spot On
Tottenham V Arsenal Never Ever A Friendly When They Play Each Other
Arsenal Are Going 2 Struggle This Season They Wont Even Get In Th Top 4 Lee Is A Great For Entertainment Arsenal Need Anther 9 Players 2 Win Th League
This match gave me ptsd of Utd vs Tottenham Europa league final
The idea of preseason is to prep for the season. Every mistake, defeat, victory counts.
Saying it's only a "friendly" is kinda shallow analysis.
Preaseason is kind of a barometer for the coming season.
Arteta doesn’t call them friendlies. He calls them tests. So Arsenal failed the test
Most toxic fanbase for to people like this, it's a friendly ffs
No wonder we get so much hate
ARTETA trust the process = 5 years no trophy .
MORESCA trus the process = 1 year 2 trophies.
Robbie is just so so annoying. This isn’t about individual performances, it’s the style of play and nothing has changed. 90% of our attack goes through Saka, we can buy all the players in the world, it won’t change anything
Manager's not at the level
pre season is just fitness
stress of becoming Arsenal is evident in AFTV…..They lost their hair😅😅😅
You should be worried 😂😂😂 COYS
United are looking good in pre season. Arsenal don’t look ready. It will be an interesting 1st game.
If arsenal won. Robbie there is another trophy under the belt…..
Bro Robbie gets under my skin and I’m a Liverpool fan. Lee is absolutely right!! The football that guys has you guys playing it’s so timid and so predictable but I swear idk what Arteta has done to them to make them love him that much lol
Arteta said everything is fine
Saka thebum.. cole clear clear
Too much expectations.
Oh shut up lee, its pretty season…
If arsenal won that he would not be saying it’s only a friendly then would he we all know that
