Pace? You’re not getting that from Botman, like. 

Well he's quicker than the other two.

It's a miracle that the Pope-Schar-Burn axis is fighting for the Champions League.

 

We need Sven back.

[kenlau88210]

I thought Botman clocked 36-37km/h top speed? But yeah he is probably not fast off the block.

Ideally Sven back and a physical and fast right CB in the mould of Tapsoba of Leverkeusen. Watkins showed up the limitations of our CBs yesterday.

Good to have you back big man

[Fak]

Would play him CM if Joelinton is still injured. Same build, physique and ability on the ball. 

[wyn davies]

Good to see him getting some minutes but was worried incase one of the tractors clogged him and set him back again.

Over what distance?  That’s Usain Bolt’s speed over 100m

i couldn’t find the video of his sprint so not sure. Bolt’s top speed would be lots faster than 36km/h. His 100m in 9.58s (average speed 37.6) obviously started from a dead stop.

[Pilko]

Great to have him back.

Bolt’s top speed will be about 45km/h over a short distance 👍

[Optimistic Nut]

Didn't Dummett clock the fastest speed one year and it was an instance of him chasing Martial?

[Wolfcastle]

Brighton too soon probably. Good asset for Arsenal though, part of the defence that's shut them out so readily in the past

[PauloGeordio]

 

[HawK]

If we can get him comfy on the right of the central defence he might be Schar's successor as I can't see us ever dropping Dan Burn for now.

 

Or 3 centre backs ? 

 

What a nice problem to have for a change.

 

Rewind a year and I had Burn on the bench but he's so important to us.

Miss Sven's reading of the game and his eye for a pass.

His passing makes such a difference. There was a moment in the last game where he pinged it out to the right. Only a 30ish yard pass along the ground, but Burn is never making that pass directly, it would go via the other centre half and a loss of momentum with it. Sven’s passing quickens the whole team and makes life much more difficult for the opposition.

Coupled with Fab's quarter back zingers!

[ElDiablo]

So happy to see this lad back out there.

[54]

Feel like he's looked a bit rusty on the ball, but defensively he's been his beastly best.

[Menace]

Please stay fit

He's looked spot on to me both on and off the ball. So composed

[Chris L]

Thought he looked solid and very good. 
 

was always likely only going to get about an hour today so wasn’t over doing things. 

[Pilko]

Did well I thought.

[Unbelievable]

Think we’ll see him start again next week
