Worried he's starting to integrate Zinchenko back into the side, which especially as Kiwior hasn't put a foot wrong is the one thing which may cost us in the run in
He was poor yesterday at Brighton....dont rate him at all
He's utter shite..We need him to be called up.for the war in Ukraine or for him to pull a hammy..He's nearly as shite as Clive was in previous years(he can't be more shite nobody could be more shite)

I can't stand Zinchenko.
Our opponents know he's a liability and target him.
We probably wouldn't have drawn with City if he'd played.

No way he should play in the big games.

Really looking forward to tomorrow now, going to the brewhouse pre-match for food and beers, then into the stadium early doors to sample a bit of pre match atmosphere on the north bank concourse. Will be jumping!

Reading the comments above about Zinchenko, my mind was drifting towards the Bayern game as I watched his performance at the weekend. I don't really watch foreign football, but I always associate Bayern with really pacey wingers and wing backs, and would much rather see Kiwior back in there with his unspectacular approach than this inverted wing back stuff which seems to work ok against the lesser teams but could be a recipe for disaster against a decent winger.....especially when that winger will be teeing up someone like Kane as opposed to Enciso or Adingra !

But that’s why in my opinion he did play yesterday to keep Kiwor fresh to go up against Sane or Gnabry ( can’t think who plays rhs for them )

Squad management, player rotation , amend the first 11 to counteract opposition threats, we now have the depth to be able to achieve that.

I laughed at Zinchenko saying that if he's called up, he'd go :roll: yeah cause he can't volunteer to go.

Well yes agree to a certain amount of rotation Stuart...but question the strength of depth of the squad...we have some very poor players hanging on for their contracts in our squad...the gamble with playing zinchenko against Brighton paid off for arteta but in first half particularly he was looking all over the place
Hope you are right and Kiwior is back for Bayern!

🚨 Manuel Neuer, Kingsley Coman, Leroy Sané, Mazraoui and also Pavlović all back in team training for Bayern.

Only Sacha Boey and Bouna Sarr will miss the game vs Arsenal. ⛔️

Silly Zinchenko eh.

I don’t know why he’d want to leave his 150k a week, stupidly hot tv presenter mrs and toddler at home to participate in Putins slaughterhouse. What’s wrong with the guy.

Was thinking the same thing, sadly it still doesn't negate just how poor he is defending. He has skills etc but I think he is more a Creative Midfielder, even so his predilection to roam and not hold his position in a well drilled team & system is still bewildering. You'd think Arteta and few of his team mates would have given him a right blocking for it by now.

I was laughing at him pretending he is going to go fight(when he definitely won't). Didn't think that needed explaining but there we go :roll:
