    It's pretty simple really, if Zin starts this game Bailey will have him on toast and they'll win for sure

    If Timber is still injured and the Italian not ready then it should be Kiwior who's played there, while he's not an LB at least he has good basic defending skills

    It’s time to bring out that awful stat, which is our poor powers of recovery away from home when we concede the first goal under Arteta

    In 96 away games, we have conceded the first goal 25 times, and lost 18 of those games with only three wins and four draws

    Then again our recovery at home isn’t much better, 8 wins and 2 draws from 24 games where we’ve conceded the first goal


    Which makes for 11 wins 6 draws and 32 defeats when we concede first. A record that states that if we concede first, we lose two thirds of the time.

    In the same period of time, Man City have won 13 drawn 8 and lost 15


    Liverpool have won 23, draw 17 and lost 24


    Spurs have won 22, drawn 8 and lost 35


    Chelsea have won 13, draw 10 and lost 37

    The stats above are horrible and reveals a lot about Arteta.

    To think that even Chelsea, yes this Chelsea side that has gone through a gazillion managers, is better than us when it comes to coming back from a deficit is shocking.

    I hate to say it again, but if we had strikers we could rely on, it probably wouldn't be that hard to get back into games.

    Maybe Arteta will figure it out after he signs his new contract and has spent 10 years here delivering on AW's dream of a "trophy" that was promised, GOT style of course.

    Of course like all stats they can be misleading, and show it from another perspective out of the last 38 away games we took the lead in 28 of those games….winning 24 drawing 3 and losing 1. Which then shows how near on impossible it is for other teams to get back in games against us once we’ve taken the lead

    Also we had Auba in the side for 13 of the 25 away games cited and still lost 8 times

    In regards to Chelsea, their recovery rate is 13 wins from 60 and ours is 11 from 48 which is identical in terms of percentages.

    And they’ve gone behind first 31 times since the start of 2022/2023 season and lost all but nine of those games (4 wins, 5 draws)

    We’ve gone behind 18 times in that same period and our record is 5 3 10.

    Also it doesn’t tell you much about the opposition we are playing, Spurs for example conceded the first goal in 9 of their 19 home games last season. This includes games against all three relegated teams, as well as against us and Man City.
