(Edited)

Game Analysis

Well, yesterday game was very tough game for arsenal but I am very happy we won not playing with our usual rhythm and I am aware every team can have a bad day at the office and it's so important to get 3points still,don't get me wrong guys. However guys somehow you are seem to be choosing to miss the point of my Critique, What we are selecting as reasons for the poor display by our team. tiredness can not stand with the few number of games we have played

Game Rotation

What will happen then by the time we will be competing in four competition. Arteta is rotating enough in Euefa games for us to really start pointing to fatigue.

Lead play

Let's give credit to Leeds and accept where we were poor.Enjoy the win but acknowledge the flaws we are exhibiting...EPL has no mercy if we do not correct the mistakes.

On the back three

We keep making silly mistakes in our defense and concede penalties, We are doing a lot of things right though progressively.

Hi,I think you nailed it here bro.

See what I found:

A few talking points:

"It was not that Leeds' pressing game was something Arsenal isn't used to, but their failing was their unsatisfactory ball handling. They needed to be more intelligent when in possession.

The major culprits in the point above were the two Gabriel's– the striker keeps holding on to the ball(to dribble) for far too long for such a match where Arsenal was under pressure; the defender, as always(even last season) is not an assured fellow on the ball,when push comes to shove. Even the impressive Martinelli also was not helping matters at times holding unto the ball so much and being crowded out. Captain,Martin Ødegaard couldn't find solutions in that kind of frantic game.

Beautiful to see Arteta haul out the captain early enough, to allow the midfield maestro, Fabio Vieira, work his magic. But the faltering guys mentioned above made his work difficult. Finally and correctly Gabriel Jesus was taken off.

You need to credit Arteta for inviting Holding from the bench,to change shape to a back three(or five) once Jesus was taken off to give Leeds a more difficult route to the goal. It wasn't the only option in that circumstance, but it was a sensible, smart option.

You can't but notice that eventhough this was not the usual vintage Arsenal attacking performance, it was a master-class in how to position yourself without the ball. The boys are so well drilled on what to do or where to go without the ball(with a leader like Xhaka offering calm, that someone like me was confident they would see the match through."

You are right on the fact, infact I was telling one of my friends when the game reach 67mins,i told him arteta need to introduce defender and stick to that goal because lead has taken our midfield but, he did just that by introduce holding and Fabio.. We were just lucky

Yup Arsenal barely scrapped through because of the quality I outlined there.

On the defence you talked about in your post.
Arteta learns pretty fast though. I hope they learn a thing or two from Real Madrid.
Thanks
