    What’s up with Gabriel not playing lately? Is he set to leave or something? Feels like out of the blue to me

      From what I gather, Partey’s inversion will result in a back 3 of White, Saliba, and Kiwior. White and Saliba are favored over Gabriel. I don’t like it, but I will accept it as long as the results are good.

      Arteta is taking this “unpredictability factor” thing too seriously

        But the fact that our squad allows for this now really says something, plus we really need or players not to burn out later on especially with Europe

          There is a difference between having the luxury to rotate at every position versus having players capable of playing multiple positions. The latter allows you to have a factor of unpredictability but it will eventually falter. A prime example is Manchester City vs Chelsea where there wasn’t a natural holding midfielder for City.

    We’re seriously going to continue this Partey experiment huh?

    Good to see Leo start, coyg ❤️
