We need them all to be wins, and they don’t need to be pretty.
CRAZY THEORY:
Arteta is being pragmatic and is playing this style of soccer to minimize mistakes that new players make while adapting to our tactical style of play. He is sacrificing offensive productivity to help us control the pace, style of play, and to keep us solid defensively.
Once the team gels and we stay healthy we will look like we did last year. We are getting glimpses of it in games from time to time but I think it’s one of those things we need to be patient while players integrate.
16 or we’re not a title winning side. If my mental math is right we’re currently just short of on track for 90 points despite beating City. 37 points from 15 games would get us back on track to 95ish points.
Obviously it’s not as simple as achieving the right ppg a third of the way through the season but I’d still prefer leading to chasing.
Need better xG numbers for that. We’re not creating nearly as many chances as last season.
18 baby. Newcastle may be tough but if we bring the focus we brought to man city we will win.
Brentford will be tricky 16 out of 18 should be acceptable
