You know, I don't even want to ask him, but I've got to ask him, is it sustainable to keep winning games 1-0, or is it, because it is always considered a dangerous scoreline, a team can go down the other end, do nothing all game, get a set piece and, you know, you get done. Yeah, no, 100%, look, it's not sustainable the way we're playing, the results are. but i'm not really that convinced but i never grew up in the George Graham era so like you know i'll give you that i'm purely Arsene Wenger's early days up till now isn't it my concern is Arteta is an amazing defensive manager amazing attacking wise it's just like this clear like like my man's a bit mad in it but he's got a point about habits yeah Havertz, like, Havertz could do a madness, like, nothing's happening. I had to re-watch that, I checked the replay. What was he doing? The one-on-one. Oh, my days. He should have done way better. You know what, something like that, right, you know, you're saying, it's almost like the manager, that's got nothing to do with the manager, and he's got to do better there, hasn't he? No, no, no, let me land on a thing. It does when he's consistently doing it, and he doesn't get taken off, or nothing changes, though. Juric had the game first half of his life against Varg. Boom, second half taken off. We went back to the same lethargic rubbish, yeah? It's time to start. No, no, no. Yeah, but after that, yeah, look, he comes here as well. It doesn't matter how bad Havertz will play. He'll always start. My thing is about Havertz, and Havertz is an amazing big moment player. Carabao Cup final, Champions League final for Chelsea as well. We'll go back that far. Oh, he's doing his thing. Champions League final for us, Chelsea, Liverpool. But this is what I'm trying to say, moments. Big moments, but moments. When it comes to these men, no disrespect to them, he'll have like one in eight good games. And the rest of the seven games, bro, it's painful to watch. You think he only steps up against the big teams? Yeah. Which is crazy. But that's crazy. And I'll give him the credit for that. But, bro, he looks... Fleetwood's a good example. That's no disrespect. That's the lowest of the lowest that we played. That was one of the worst games Havertz has had. Like, bro, I don't... And then he'll go next week against Liverpool and score a massive goal. But this is what I'm saying. Score the winner against Chelsea, score the Champions League final. That's a great point that you make. Bro, that's my problem. So, like, my man is... My man's chatting quite... He's going on mad. But he's got a point about Havertz. No, no. I'm more constructive in it, but he's not, he's not. Don't be ugly. Yeah, I don't want to disrespect no players. You know, I'm never, I never, I never bury any players off like that. But no, he does need to pattern up, bro. And the problem is, we can go back to the Olivier Giroud days, yeah? Ozil, whilst he had his problems of his own, was robbed of an assist record and Leicester won that league because Giroud was up front. Wenger never changed it up, but Wenger never really wanted to get a striker. Do you like to see Yoko starting? Do you think after the international break, give him a series of games? Because, you know, he must be looking around. So if you look at us, I was saying this earlier, you look at a striker like a Dominic Calvert-Lewin at Everton. you know because of circumstances he's having to start every week he's not known as a clinical striker which he ain't yeah but he's racking up the goals because he's starting every week so is it that a striker needs to start consistently it does because look when you're getting taken off at half time after doing a mad thing bro that's knocking confidence you know it knocks confidence you're sometimes just thinking what you need to do because your striker ahead of you is doing not enough And you're not playing. Now, another thing to look at, it's in the same light. Declan Rice needs to rest, yeah? Bruno's at £85 million signing. What does... Oh, alright, cool. £75, yeah? What does he need to do to, like, you know, play? Considering Rice needs to rest, yeah? You could look at... No, no, alright, wait, wait. Let me finish. Let me... No, no, let me finish. Come on, come on. You can't play Bruno and Dekkers at the same time. No, no, I'm going to get into that. No, no, this is what... They're two very similar people. Somebody said that earlier. No, I said this to you last week. They said that when Rice came off, Bruno looked better. Yeah, and I 100% agree with that, right? You have to look at the pivot, right? You've got Odegaard, you've got Rice, right? And then, like... We have Bruno, and it's just like, it's too defensive. It's too defensive. We're really struggling in midfield. If you look at the front three, like whether it's Solis or whether it's Manawake, we're not getting that service up to the front three at the moment, right? And look, Havertz, again, bro, I agree with you, right? What you were saying about Havertz is like, he's not looking great at the moment. Right, he's got three goals, nine appearances, or seven appearances. They're big goals. Oh, big goals, big goals. I mean, let's be honest, we all loved him last week, right? All loved him last week. But he has to do that a little bit more. And I think Arteta, at the moment, like, look, I was with my guys today. I was like, what do you want to do? How do you want to experience it? And you might kill me for this, but it's like, what do you want to do? Do you want to win 4-3, or do you want to win 1-0, right? Right, because today, It was a bit oppressive, it was a bit boring, right? And we've seen this and we've heard it in the media. It's a bit, we're in the unwatchables. Last season, I was like, I will do anything to win the league. I've been there, I've been here for 20 years, season ticket holder. And I want this more than anyone. But I also want a little bit of flair and I want a bit more. Like us selling Martinelli last year, or this season, right? It's like, we're bringing Solly, Solly is... He's had that moment of a flair, right? He's had a bit more, right? You're saying similar, right? Yeah, yeah, no, this is it. That was my point about, I was going to say that because I've said this already on here, yeah? They're very similar players and that's my problem with it all. Rice needs to rest, Bruno can play. I've not seen Bruno and Skelly link up either. Now, that's the thing with Zolas as well. We've got Zolas in. And we got with the two left wingers that whilst there was criticisms of them, especially Martinelli, they were title winning ones. You've got Zolas in. Zolas has struggled when he's been fit. Obviously, he's had a bit of time off. Now, Zolas didn't have the greatest game today. My thing is, I don't understand why this has happened. And again, it's similar to these kind of attacking decisions that Arteta has made. Now, that's my criticism. Like I said, he's a very, he's a world-class defensive manager. Do you know what? He's probably overtaken some of the people defensively. But yeah, we need some attacking coach. I'm going to ask you guys, both of you, one final question. Go for it. Yeah? 4-1-0 and we win the title. Right on. Or? Flair football from now till the end of the season, and we see what happens. So you'd be guaranteed, I'll give you two options. I guarantee you, you win the tie but it's gonna be a load of boring one-nils from now till the end. Or you can go play, I guarantee you, Flair football, and we see what happens. What are you going with? Yeah, no, I would, if it's guaranteed with the 1-0s, I'll take it. But I don't feel like it is. Okay. No, I'll be honest with you. I think we're in this moment where, like, I'd said a question. Thank you. Flair moments. Flair from now to the end of the season and we see how it goes. Could win the title. Could get... Or... 1-0. Hey, look, it's an entertainment game, right? I love coming here, and I want to be excited, and I want to see us pounding. And look, we have to take... Which one are you taking? We have to take the 1-0s, right? But I still love a 4-3 occasionally, right? It's like, you just have to enjoy what you're seeing. And look, today... At halftime, everyone was a bit like, oh, it's nil-nil. If we were one-nil down, we know we're going to come out and absolutely go for it. So we need that accelerant to really push us on. And let's be fair, right? You know, you know at halftime, Mikel would have been in that changing room, giving the, this is not the ******* standards, yeah? Right? This is not the ******* standards. And we need to go. And we came out and we changed it up and then we went hard in the second half. I mean, look. To be fair, we got the goal, like, Odegaard, smash it, smashing it in, he did do it, he got it in there, right, but then, Madueke, he comes in, he comes in, he makes it a bit more complex, he didn't need to do that, he just, like, put it in the goal, man, just smash it in the onion net there, get it in there, right, and that was the key thing for me, it was just, like, it just missed that je ne sais quoi about, like, what the Arsenal is. And look, don't get me wrong, to your point, I'm still for a 1-0 because we need to get the three points. I am taking a 1-0 today.
