Has he specifically said don't score goals? No I doubt it. Has he said keep the ball and possession and wait for a chance to come? Yes probably. And if that chance never comes? Then we keep on pass pass pass.
Not hard to understand. It's like talking to a child lol
I'd have thought this day, last night and well last 2 years would have been humiliating enough for you.
Me:
...and you think that is because Arteta tells them not to try and score?
Interesting point of view.
You:
He is the manager is he not?
Why else do they play that way?
Me:
I see.
So you do actually believe Arteta is telling the midfielders not to play it forward and not to score.
You:
This Arteta love in you have is a new one.
So please tell me why we are playing that way
All pretty clear.
Thanks for your "insight" but I'll pass - and thanks for also backtracking (second time for you today - you are learning)
Well obviously he isn't telling that to the players but our central midfielders are clearly instructed to not get into the box, which results in less goals from midfield.
Players like Xhaka, Partey, Ceballos and Elneny wouldn't score many goals from midfield anyway but I feel under Arteta we miss at least 10 goals combined from them.
