Arteta & Flamini

Great move to play them both in my opinion. I saw alot of articles comparing the two as two who would start. While only one would start in most games playing them both against tougher oppositions with good midfields especially in europe could be of great use looking forward. I feel flamini is not the best technically with his passing and arteta does the positional side very well but doesnt have a great engine. Combining the two today showed how very little got through them today, barely any 1v1s against our CBs. Should be the solution to dortmund away
On another note I might be wrong but marseille finished with more possession at dortmund, also a good sign?

Great to see the two of them playing so well together.

Flamini can pick a pass. He's not totally inept.

We were so strong without the ball tonight, we haven't had that sort of partnership since Vieira & Gilberto era

I didnt mean he was inept, far from it. Hes been groomed at arsenal and made it to the first team so hes not inept with his passing obviously, it was in relative to the two. Arteta is a better passer but he can fade physically late in the game, flamini keeps going. Thats all
