In a so so run of form after being excellent.
Happens.
Watching him, he’s trying a bit too hard.
Sometimes you can’t win the ball against a forward. In those situations just be smart.
He’ll learn with more experience.

And now people understand why its imperative that Saliba stays with us. Both CBs had mares, Gabriel was worse.

Not really.
Most people don't judge a player on one game or even a short run of poor form.
Gabriel is just fine - as is our defence.
Saliba also this year has had his fair share of 'mares'.

Some our fans are like a golfer who's in the process of remodelling their swing and is getting better at golf, but goes out one day and plays badly, so gives up and throws their clubs in the pond. hoping to buy new ones that will solve the problem :biggrin:

Gabriel is a commanding CB and leader. He just had a bad game.


Pretty much.
As did 10 others in our team.

Read we were looking at Bremer, maybe that is why. Would be gutted to see Gabriel go though.

Its not one game he has been poor in, when players are in a poor run of form you don't keep picking them, unless you don't have any better alternatives.

Your thinking smacks of small club mentality. If a player has a dip in form, pull him out and play someone else, no need to keep playing the player.

You have how many times said you don't care about the players, they are assets/commodities, you only care about Arsenal, stick to your principles, Gabriel is a commodity in poor form, he should be replaced if we had someone suitable to replace him with ... or is that not the case because I am talking about Saliba, so your principles have changed Jay ?!! :sneaky2:

He's fine.
Didn't see him do much wrong against Brighton.
It's always the same - we win and players are 8/10, 9/10 and we lose and they are 3/10 or 4/10 in some fans eyes.
The reality is different.
Case in point I saw comments that our midfield was dominated by Brighton, which had nothing to do with what was happening on the pitch at all and all to do with the fact we were 2-0 down. The reality was that we totally dominated the midfield area.
Same with the defence - it was largely untroubled for the entire match. Brighton scored a worldie and caught us on the break. Sometimes things go badly and it doesn't mean everyone is shit.

You don't replace starting players unless they are playing badly for long periods.
It's like when Saka had a couple of bad games.. all the nonsense came out about him needing a rest... and then he went through his best spell of the season.
Fans are generally clueless but like to play pretend manager.
It all makes for a fun chat, but when fans start to actually believe they know better, it goes from fun to comedy.

I get the unrest when things are going really badly, but they are not, so I just view all the noise as bleating by people who really don't know what they are talking about.

Really ? You think any top manager would continue to play ANY player that was out of form for up to a long period ? You think Maureen in his pomp, Ancelotti, Klopp, Prime Wenger, Guardiola et al would do that ???

Shit Wenger did it time and time again, that is in no way representative of top managers. You are tripping bro.

Yes.
White and Gabriel have been an excellent partnership this year.
You don’t break it up after 2 losses.
Stupid and reactionary.

Insanity if we agree to sell. He's our best CB without a doubt.

Barcelona's first choice is Rudiger and they're definitely signing Christensen so I don't think there's much chance of this unless Rudiger renews w Chelsea.

Barcelona hope to talk Arsenal down from their current €40 million asking price for defender Gabriel.

The Spanish side are looking to sign the centre-back this summer but cannot afford to meet Arsenal's demands.

Sport reports they are prepared to offer the Gunners some players in order to bring the price down, with Memphis Depay, Riqui Puig and Neto among the list of players who could be added to the deal.



They can f**k off

^ This lad has definitely got his head screwed on right. The club's marketing consultant is missing a trick here in not having him depicted as turning up at the Emirates on a Harley Davidson Fat Boy wearing black leather jeans, jacket and boots along with black sunglasses and a single red contact lens, to the sound track of The Terminator or Bad to the Bone. The fan base would go crazy for his merchandise and posters showing that. A cleverly and tastefully done one depicting the naked bar scene would probably swell the number of female fans a thousand fold alone.
