I get the idea that the club is more important than the player, and for that reason the German teams have the team name above the number and the player name below. But, that doesn’t seem to take into account how cameras often frame their shots, where the bottom part of the shirt isn’t visible.
Nwaneri looks damn good for a 16 year old
He’s hungry!
He looks more than hungry he looks like he’s ready to play regularly in a pro league lol.
He looks nothing like a 16 year old. What are they feeding them over at Hale End? Lol
Reminds me of Fabregas almost but he’s here to stay probably lol
Even if he doesn’t stand out, it’s amazing if at 16 he’s not out of place in a team of 24 year old internationals.
Lovely Nketiah, literally just a preseason friendly and he’s pressing every chance he gets
He’s fighting for his position right now and I’m loving every second of it.
Tierney is defensively sound. We’ll need him at left back when Zinchenko can’t keep up.
I know the chances are slim, but I’d love to see Balogun stay at this club
Same here, I think with our signing we are definitely in need of letting some players go but his potential for the club would be incredible.
@poorlydrawnarsenal @Astrealix
Fantastisch…
Oof, a “play out of the back” goal. Well played Nurnburg.
Saka is pure quality. He never stops
Ben white looking great
Balogun seems to be coming on (26) so it looks like the line-up will now be:
GK: 31. Hein
RB: 17. Cedric
RCB: 4. White
LCB: 6. Gabriel
LB: 3. TierneyDM: 20. Jorginho
RCM: 21. Vieira LCM: 29. HavertzLW: 26. Balogun
CF. 9. Jesus
LW. 14. NketiahNelson’s not on the pitch you mean Nketiah
Moot cuz seems like more changes rn but lol
Yep, you’re right, he was on the far side of the pitch in the sun so it was hard to see. Edited.
And just as I typed that in, another round of subs. Nwanieri 63 for Vieira and Trusty 32 for Gabriel.
So, the lineup seems to be:
GK: 1. Ramsdale
RB: 4. White
RCB: 2. Saliba
LCB: 6. Gabriel
LB: 15. Kiwior (shifting into central midfield like Zinchenko)DM: 5. Partey
RCM: 21. Vieira
LCM: 19. TrossardRW: 7. Saka
CF: 14. Nketiah
LW: 24. NelsonI’m interested to see how, or if, Timber changes things. Will he invert?
And if he does, does that mean both fullbacks are inverting, or does the left fullback go wide if the right fullback inverts?
Didn’t realize there was a chat function on lemmy, that’s cool
How did you do that lol
Think it’s on the website, I switched over to have a look and I think it’s just comments sorted by new (maybe auto refreshes too but not sure)
I use the web app and don’t see it lol but that’s cool
If Ur on lemmy.world website, there’s a little “chat” button near where the comment sorting options are
Oh yea I see that; so nothing like with the Reddit live chat lol
Hmm, but it doesn’t seem to sort in chronological order. Your comment is currently at the top for me, above a comment from 4 minutes later, which is above another comment from 3 minutes after that.
That free kick certainly was a free kick.
Myles Lewis-Skelly (playing wearing 59) is only 16 and also doesn’t look out of place in this team.
Yeah but this is after they’ve rotated too, so not as significant haha
Wow. A lot of tricky play to get the ball to the middle then it drops for Kiwior who tries an outside-of-the-foot left-footed shot from near the top of the D and hits an Arsenal player (Trossard?) (18 minutes in or so, for someone looking for a fun replay).
Interesting that Kiwior is in that position though. I guess Arsenal is going to play with the left fullback tucking in even when Zinchenko isn’t playing.
