However, it doesn’t feel like that’s the case for us on a consistent enough basis: Nighswonger, Kuhl, Gio, Lacasse, Borbe, KCC, Kafaji, Codina, all examples where the manager doesn’t fully trust them.

How do we resolve this issue so we are recruiting players the manager can rely upon, more often?

Do you think our approach to recruitment is worse than the likes of Chelsea & City?

When you look at their squads, it seems like they often sign players that are able to come in and impact the team immediately, or even go straight in the starting 11 without seeing a drop off.

Before the game kicked off, did you agree with Arteta’s decision to start Eze at LW and Merino as the striker?

I was a bit worried seeing the line up as I wasn’t sure they would be the right forwards for the kind of game that Villa were going to give us. Both then ended up being hooked at HT.

It sounds like the deal for Holmberg is likely to go through, alongside another GK needing to be brought in.

As we will only be able to register 3 new players to the CL squad, which other position would be your main priority to address during the January window?

@arseblog.com @gunnerblog.bsky.social Do you think the Calafiori HT sub was due to the yellow card, or possible injury?

Was a bit surprised MLS was brought on in such a hectic game after not having a great game vs Bayern (and he also ended up getting booked not long after coming on, anyway).

Do you think another GK may be needed in Jan?

Unsure if Borbe was signed to be 2nd or 3rd GK but DVD is still playing through injury & Manu was making the bench ahead of Borbe prior to her injury.

If Borbe isn’t trusted, it seems risky to not address GK depth with the current injury situation.

I’ve some discourse about the academy results at U18 & U21 level being underwhelming recently.

Do you think that it’s something the club will look at and work to improve in the future, through better youth recruitment? Or are they just prioritising integrating the best talents to the first team?

How many players within the squad do you think have a future at Arsenal, beyond this season?

For a variety of reasons (contractual/lack of trust in certain players from manager/ageing squad), it feels like there will need to be a lot of business done over the next couple of windows.

I see a manager not making excuses and giving it everything to squeeze every drop from these players. I see these players going flat out with nothing on the bench to help them, playing with issues. Is everyone upstairs putting in the same effort to help them and reinforce? Maybe. But I don’t see it.
