A game to forget. Totally misfit as a no.10.

Wasn't a 10 he was part of a back 7

[MathyGooner]

Player is fine, does his job well. Problem is he's being played in a completely imbalanced midfield.

Starts next game ahead of Gyokeres?

Yawn

Start on the right ahead of Ode exactly where he plays for Italy giving gykores support

This.

So you guys want him to start in Odegaards position and keep the 3 CDM "negative tacitcs"?

Also Merino doesn't play for Italy.

I wouldn't play Zubimendi I would play Rice, Merino, Eze

Some players just have it. Clutch

[VCC]

Certainly good for a goal, and a usually puts in a shift, Arteta just needs to not play too many of the same type player together.
Today he got selection spotty dog

[Salibatelli]

He’s a very good goalscoring midfielder, that’s his strength really, a bit like David Platt.

His goal yesterday was brilliant.

[alexis2015finalgoal]

He adds value. He may not be technically the best baller, but so what? He is a very good box-to-box CM who obviously can score goals.

[MathyGooner]

The problem has never been Merino in the mid. The problem is Merino in a mid comprised of Zubi and Rice. You need to have a creative player in there.
