Arsenal have finally got the confirmation that Uri and Timber will return after the
international break next week and barring any setbacks will be a part of the squad in
the Manchester City game.
With this brilliant news coming, let's talk about how this can impact the squad going
forward and could potentially play a part for the rest of the season for Arsenal.
Let's get into it.
Now I've been getting a lot of comments that I've been doing very negative videos recently
so I thought okay let's get a positive for today and we definitely got one with the confirmation
that Uri and Timber will be back next week.
Now I've done videos in the past about how he can definitely help Arsenal tactically
and how much of an impact it could do but we did actually have that confirmation he
was going to come back.
It was still more speculation with people arguing on Twitter what month he actually
is going to come back in but we have seen him in training a lot more recently over the
last 3-4 weeks that he's actually been training with the team so it's a very good thing that
we're actually finally seeing him get the confirmation that he can play in the Man City
game and could potentially come off the bench.
And now that's the thing I definitely think he'll be coming off the bench and even though
I think in training he's actually looked alright and looked up to speed it's obviously going
to take some time.
Now if you haven't seen I want to bring some awareness to the new Tyrone Mings video that
came out.
Now Tyrone Mings also had a recent and similar injury to what Uri and Timber had around the
same sort of period.
Now Mings is also very bad and he is still really struggling slowly coming back to fitness
and as you can see in this video his right leg has completely lost all the muscle apart
of it.
This is because this is where the main injury happened and this is what happens in recovery.
You have to rest it, you simply can't be doing much exercise with it and all the muscle of
it just completely goes.
And while obviously we don't know everything but it does seem like Uri and Timber's muscle
is definitely on his legs and he seems a lot more better but obviously these are the sort
of things you've got to expect and I think susceptible to injuries when you come back
is a lot more.
He might be less willing to go in for a crunching challenge or a 50-50 because he understands
that it's going to go and impact him and could hurt him in the future in his career.
This is something that people like Aaron Ramsey really struggled with as much as he actually
got a lot better player with it after he got injured.
It definitely took a few years for him to get used to it and actually get away from
that injury because he was so worried he was going to get injured again.
And the sharpness of the player for the game is not going to be there, it's not going to
be that close for a while.
People can't just expect him to get a man-to-match performance when he plays or comes off the
bench or even starts a game in the future.
It's going to take a bit of time for him to get used to it and I'll be surprised if Anteta
actually risk starting him for the rest of the season.
Arsenal have been on brilliant form and although they have a lot of hard games coming up, which
yeah okay it'd be brilliant if Timber could play in, with his sharpness and how much he's
actually played this season, I'll be very unlikely to see him play unless we get an
injury to someone like Ben White where he really has to come in.
And this is the thing, I don't know if Jürgen Timber's really going to be starting any games
for the rest of the season.
I think maybe when we get into the May and near the end with the last few games left
you might see him come in but if they're actually still matter for Arsenal and Arsenal are still
fighting for a lot, then maybe he's still not risked and honestly we don't see him
start but I do expect him to come on a lot.
This does mean that players like Sinchenko probably won't get come on as much or people
like Kivio's game time will be considerably decreased.
And even people like Tom Iassu have come back from injury now, we haven't even seen him
since December before he went to the Asian Cup.
Where is there going to be spots for him in the team?
I think Arsenal are very bloated in full backs when Timber comes back and I think you'll
start to see that when everyone is fit.
But considering I think and a lot of people think that he was probably not going to play
for the rest of the season after picking up that injury in the first game, it's so good
to see that he's actually coming back with still a few months to despair.
Still got the rest of April and May to play and there's still a lot of games to be played.
He's come back with 10 games left and also our two Champions League games could potentially
be more.
So there's still a lot of football to play and with the business end of the season is
a massive boost for the squad.
I think mentally it's going to help the team a lot having someone like Yuri and Timber
there because we know how good he is.
He got manned the match in that Community Shield performance and was brilliant in that
game and I think he was brilliant before he got brought off.
And I don't think that we're going to be sacrificing him or using different tactical systems that
I think we might have used if he was fit the rest of the season.
Like trying to play party in that right-back role and trying to do different things.
Now it all matters and now everything comes to fruition.
So I could just imagine him not really being like that and being used as a proper full-back
in his position.
He also can cover and centre-back if you need and can play on either full-back position.
And with his brilliant on-the-ball technique, honestly putting him in defence and midfield
next to Rice isn't the worst option, but now we've got party back as well, which is another
massive boost.
I wouldn't really expect us to play him there, but there's no doubt about it.
It's basically like having a completely new signing within the team.
We barely got to see him actually play at this level and we spent 40 million on him
in the summer.
Luckily, he's young and hopefully he can learn from this and improve.
Hopefully it does not continue some injuries that we don't want to see.
And this doesn't get spoken about enough, but I think Arsenal were incredibly unlucky
to get a key player that they signed in the summer, just have a massive injury like that
only 45 minutes into his Premier League debut.
Imagine if that happened to some of the big players that other teams have signed, such
as the Erling Haaland and players like that.
Jürgen Timber did not have an extensive injury record before he came here.
He'd only been injured for a couple of games maybe, but nothing really serious in Ajax.
And I know a lot of teams have had considerable injury problems this season, such as Liverpool,
Newcastle, Man Utd and even Man City have had some, but we have had as well.
And the problem with both Arsenals has been they've mostly been in the same position.
We've had a lot of struggles in midfield throughout the season in certain places and we've had
a lot of struggles in the full-back areas with Tomiasu, Zinchenko and Timber all being
at a different time.
And if it was, you know, more of a run-back around the team, we'd be able to use our depth
a bit more and people would get a game time.
If someone like Odegaard was to get injured, we'd get Smith-Rowe or Vieira to come in.
Even Vieira was injured himself.
Or in goal, we've got Ramsdell.
Even in defence, you can move Kibbe or to centre-back.
There's other options you could have done.
But when you have all these players in one certain position getting injured, it makes
it seem a lot less depth than we need.
A lot of people have said that we need more full-backs and I actually think we have loads
of full-backs.
And I get that people are going, oh, we're one injury away from playing Cedric.
But realistically, we don't have in any situation where you need to play Cedric.
We have enough players in front of him.
If they all get injured, then I'd still pick someone like Walters or Sousa before he left.
And even in this summer, I've seen a lot of people say that we need to sign new full-backs.
I saw Mark Goldbridge say it and I don't really think I necessarily agree.
Maybe get someone that can play in a centre-back and left-back or right-back role.
A bit of versatile defender would be a good option.
Someone like Gerald Hatto who I spoke about a few months ago.
I don't think we actually need to really cover in that area because we've still got
Ben White, we've got Timba, we've got Tom Iasi, we've got Sinchenko.
That is enough cover in them positions.
And if you need to, you could also move someone like Kivio there as well, who has obviously
been playing there brilliantly.
And I think when you see Yuri and Timba play again, it will remind everyone that the Arsenal
fans know how great he was over the pre-season break and obviously against Manchester City
and before he came off injured in his first game.
But I think other people get to see.
I've called him one of the best full-backs in the Premier League and now that is a crazy
take soon.
He's barely playing, I know that.
But I think this guy has the ability right now, not even potential, I think he has the
ability right now to actually be that good.
And I know it's just such a lame term to be like he transforms Arsenal, but I genuinely
think he will.
I think he will make sure everyone knows how good he is.
And I'm a big fan of people like Kivio, I think he's been amazing.
But when you've got Timba in there, I think you'll realise just how special he actually
is.
I hope that Ben White gets a break as well because that guy deserves it.
And he has played way too much this season than I think anyone expected, even himself.
So I really want Timba to come in and sort of give Ben White a bit of time out as well.
While also he could also play on that left side and maybe get out Kivio as well.
Right now is the calm before the storm, definitely.
Arsenal have some really stressful games coming up after this international break.
Obviously Manchester City are a massive one and that's going to really define our season
if we can get something out of that or not.
But we've got many big games after that as well.
It's going to be a very tight time near the end of the season and having a massive boost
like Uri and Timba coming back is brilliant.
I know apparently right now, Gabriel is injured, but apparently I think he's going to be fine
for the game, which obviously we really hope.
And of course, we pray that there's going to be no injuries over the international break
because this is the biggest moment that we've had in a very long time, especially because
we're in the Champions League as well.
Thank you guys for watching this video.
Let me know in the comments how excited you are for Uri and Timba's return.
And do you think he will end up starting the game towards the end of the season or could
you see him having a lot of cameos off the bench?
How far do you think his recovery will go?
