Arteta can only see one team and one set of tactics to play, our squad isn't as deep as others but today he could at least have tried starting with Eddie up front and Nelson on the right, ti give Jesus and Saka a break and those others a chance to prove themselvrs.
He just refuses to give squad players hardly any game time in the PL, ignoring the fact that we need those guys to be able to come in and do a job for us
And taking off Odegaard and Martinelli, probably our best two players on the day, was dumb
As for the Tomi thing, he's a very good right back but not a left back, one good job against Salah and he gets the spot over Tierney permanently it seems, which makes no sense
