another hat trick for Calvert-Lewin
I said last season he was going to explode 

He has a strong supporting cast this season.

Declan Rice played as a CB and got destroyed, so it seems to me. This is probably the reason why he plays DM.

His pace is pretty bad for a CB that wants to play high line. Either he sorts out his positioning, or he plays DM. Looked also bad in the second goal

assuming Rice is a no go at CB

then

Milan Skriniar   <<< I think people are far too harsh on him, all because Conte insists on a back 3, if this was a year ago, he was on everyone's top 10 list for CB, he is still my 4th option

Theo Hernández (conversion from LB, like his smaller brother) <<< my number 2 option, and also would be a superb LB option when Chilwell cannot go

 

 

other big names, but with  major issues

Matthijs de Ligt  Juve will not sell
Kalidou Koulibaly   too old for the price
David Alaba  will not come here, wages are also too high, and I am not sold on him as a CB in the EPL
Stefan de Vrij   next summer will be too old for the money demanded 
Marquinhos  PSG will not sell   
Alessandro Bastoni  Inter will not sell 
Lucas Hernández  overrated IMHO  at CB

then the rest

Ibrahima Konaté   
Evan N'Dicka   
Edmond Tapsoba   
Jules Koundé    
Pau Torres    
Nico Elvedi    
Nikola Milenkovic   
Presnel Kimpembe    
Merih Demiral   
Felipe (Swap Kante for him and Thomas Partey) 
Duje Caleta-Car    
Luiz Felipe     
Benoît Badiashile    
Manuel Akanji    
Axel Disasi   
Zinho Vanheusden   
Mohamed Simakan    
Mohammed Salisu    
Ferro   
Ronald Araújo   
Wesley Fofana << on verge of Leicester move
Bafodé Diakité    
Jhon Lucumí 
Eduardo Quaresma  
David Carmo
Jean Marcelin  
Perr Schuurs    
Josko Gvardiol  
Robson Bambu    
Sven Botman    
Chidozie Awaziem 
Odilon Kossounou  
Oumar Solet    
Tiago Djaló

What a pathetic match so far, even we look better than this.

[MoroccanBlue 5,375]

No we didn’t. Arsenal are trying to move the ball forward at least

Haven't seen the first half but in the second yet again Arsenal are getting cut open at will and being saved from humiliation by Leno.

They'll probably shithouse this on pens and we'll be getting told Frank should be doing things like Arteta.
