Laca again working his socks off
----------------------------------------------------------------------
laca always works hard - even when playing bad

oh Martinelli.

Cedric just not been on his game today.

Cedric you POS

cedric lol

Odegaard been very very good

Frustrating half even though we are winning. They are wide open at the back, definitely should have created more

We've worked some great positions. Should be one more up tbh.

Cedric gonna do a madness

The right handside has been very good, the rest not so much, hopefully Arteta sorts it out.

Agreed. Martinelli needs to take more risks

Cedric not been that bad. Gets too much stick. Partey had lots of the ball and a lot of his passing and shooting has been poor. Laca good work rate and an assist but offers little goal threat. Martinelli needs a goal for confidence. Not having a lot of luck.

Laca, Saka and Ode are our best players so far.

Cedric has been very good recently. I don't think he gets stick at all. Just been a touch back footed. Just like Martinelli. Hopefully both will be better in the second half.

Xhaka needs to be be a bit more disciplined tbh. Thats where the space is and Watford know it.

Arteta needs to sort out the Tierney side. We let them cross and pass from that side without interfering. This can't continue.

Xhaka is practically at left back

No he isn't and thats the problem. Martinelli is covering for Tierney and that leaves a huge space in in RCM which Watford are exploiting.

*LCM

Tierney been poor today .

Martinelli's defense contribution needs to improve drastically.

Thats not a good idea. Remember when Auba used to play ACM on the left and ended up covering at LB?

We need an outball that Martinelli provides. The problem is Xhaka is playing further forward which means Tierney is left one on one by the Watford attacker. Xhaka needs to control the gap between himself, martinelli and Tierney to leave less space.

phew
