This guy is so much worse than David Luiz it’s genuinely unthinkable

Hoof it up and win the second ball.

Whole point of going short is we beat the initial press and then space will be available further on but even when we do beat the press, we just pass back anyway meaning Watford have all their guys back behind the ball so making playing short from GKs pointless

You guys can say what you want, but i prefer THIS

Owning up to 1 off mistakes, Just Like Luiz did last game

Than Xhaka pulling a b!tch move EVER TIME, Choosing to defend Himself, by basically downplaying his errors & shifting blame.

It was the 'just hoof it next time' bit I was agreeing with. Sokratis is one of my fav players!

I dont like his flopping and cheating.

What he did in the second half regarding Wesley was disgraceful.

Headline:Sokratis is still the rock on which Unai Emery can build Arsenal's defence

Sokri & Luiz are good Old School SMART defenders, that stay Fit with Smart Fouls & smart decision making..mostly still

[Covertly telling the Emirates ball boy to delay the recovery at 80+mins when we have the lead....the little things..go a long way]

they can pass on their Knowledge onto Holding & Saliba , Zech Medley&Kontantinos Mavrapanos before they go at 33 or 34 to a retirement League.

Sadly I agree, he is getting to a bit Ashley Young.

Sokratis is a huge liability when we're playing out from back thats for sure , he is a mixture of Squillaci, Djourou, Senderos and the one and only Pascal Cygan. He has become a walking liability.

Always thought signing Sokratis was a bad idea, his age was always going to be an issue for us and we now already need a replacement, the club had no foresight with this one, should have gone for a younger CB.
