Can you imagine being a 16 year old lad playing for the Arsenal senior team with the likes of Saka, Rice, Jorginho, Jesus, Sterling? Porter must be pinching himself every minute right now.
I just found out we might have to play Porter, the 16yo, 4th choice ’keeper.
If he dies, he dies
First goal for Sterling. He’s played well
Finally an easy game in this cup, jeez.
Saka and Rice start. Why?
Nelli on the bench. Why?
Saka only played 45, i expect another 45 only
Ain’t really got midfielders enough to not play Rice.
It’s good to finally see the youngsters play. I think a lot of it was forced due to injuries and the congested fixture list, but I’ll take it
Porter apparently broke Fabregas’s record for youngest starter lol
lol, Jesus tried.
Idk if it’ll show up on highlights but he tried to do a bit of a bicycle in a crowd, didn’t really work XD
I’m an idiot. I was sitting here thinking about why Trossard may not have been named in the squad…
Keep forgetting Rice has 41, I keep constantly being like “who’s this academy player playing so good-oh wait nvm that’s rice”
big numbers for first team players is a sin
Outstanding from Lewis-Skelly, great goal for Nwaneri. Credit to Sterling too
Word is Raya’s out from injury. One of the kids, then; plus Nwaneri and MLS are both gonna start as well as Sterling and Jesus from rumours.
I think he’s not necessarily injured, we’re just taking precautions since we’re going to play half our matches with 10 men.
Light injury’s still an injury. White was injured last match.
True, but when I think injury I think of being out for more than a game week, whereas all sources seem to indicate that Raya should be fine for Leicester.
I’ve seen enough, Nwaneri should start against Leicester.
1000%. At the very least he’s earned the benefit of the doubt. We convinced him to stay because there would be first team minutes up for grabs - we need to take this opportunity now that Ø is injured. Arteta will be much more reluctant to do so in the spring.
That’s a lovely little backheel pass from Bolton, lol. Bad shot though.
Not gonna be watching closely, I have homework that needs doing :p This semester has been rough.
