Astroblack Posted Monday at 00:03 Share Posted Monday at 00:03 (edited) Was checking out Arsenal’s player touch stats and Rice was highest at 60, Odegaard had 12! In the 51 minutes played, Timber had 32, Saka only 24. seeing a lot about 25% possession and 1 shot on target but after 120 minutes, it was 1-1. If they had opened up and went for it, they would have been slaughtered. Lost on pens ffs. Atleti played like that and Simeone has bagged two La Ligas, been in two Champions League finals and won a Europa League. Don’t understand all the uproar.

I think if you don’t live in London you might not realize what a huge impact the Arsenal Women’s team have had. It’s advertised everywhere, and a million middle-class families with 2.4 kids go to the games because it’s relatively cheap, very easy to get to and you can get a ticket. They’ve played a blinder - it’s such a good way to build a fanbase, particularly at a time when kids, teenagers etc simply cannot afford to go to the men’s matches.

It's more that they've spent all of that money and choose to play this way, and they play this ugly football whether it's PSG in the Champions League Final or if it's Burnley at home. Obviously they naturally have more of the ball and create more chances against the shite teams playing the same way but it's the worst "big" team I've seen in my lifetime.

There’s uproar from me for obvious reasons, but also I genuinely love good football and hate cynical cheats and gamesmanship that goes routinely unpunished. It’s not that complicated. Also a fair few people on here have pointed out the irony of Arteta and Arsenal employing the same tactics he’s moaned about in the past. Then you factor in the way they have been demonstrably favoured by PGMOL - consistently, and to a greater degree than PGMOL admit. We all understand why Arteta plays the way he does. He thinks it gives them the best chance to win…or more accurately, the least likelihood to lose. Surely you can also understand why we all don’t like it?

It’s mental that it even needs explaining. More than one way to skin a cat of course. But if tiki taka/Pep ball was seen as ruining the game or making it boring. With so many teams trying to copy it. Then I don’t know what the fuck this set piece, shithouse FC setup is?! We’ve already seen every team in the prem follow suit and it was one of the worst league campaigns to watch for quite some time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
