Interesting take on our last three games I saw: Arteta’s tactics in our last 3 games have been wins if you look at xG and we should be blaming the players for not scoring rather than him.

I don’t really blame him personally, I don’t know how much a manager can do about players not scoring when looking at the players he has available to pick at the moment. You could say we shouldn’t have signed Jesus or extended Nketiah and we should’ve spent more money on a better striker but I don’t know who is available that would’ve been a good move? Sure, we could’ve not signed Rice and had 100 mil for a striker but I really don’t think that would put us in a better situation. We can’t just blame our strikers. Martinelli all of a sudden can’t score a goal, for example.

Idk. It’s a bit of a shitty situation we’re in because this season we either win the league, or we’ve regressed/stagnated in the eyes of a lot of fans. I just don’t think it’s a fair assessment. I didn’t expect to come second this season and while I was hopeful we would be the strongest team this year I can’t say I’m surprised that it’s not all sunshine and rainbows. We are only 5 points off the top, city has won from 8 points behind at Christmas.

Not to mention, our players are still young.

Just realised that the Hong Kong match will clash with our Watford game cuz it starts 9:30 and watford starts 8:00; i’m probably gonna go watch that lol. :p

RIP Beckenbauer
