    I kind of disagree with Arteta’s attitude that we have to try and win every single match (with regards to the cups). I would much prefer we play a core of Odegaard + Saliba + Gabriel, then slot in as many academy up-and-comers as possible. I’m sick of seeing Saka booted up and down the pitch (even harder than usual) and our entire squad’s fitness depleted for no real reward.

      Tbf he does rotate in the cups, the problem is that the fringe players aren’t good enough to win lmfao. The fringe players do need game time. My main complaint was just that game against PSV we coulda rotated more, but it is the Champions League and we did already rotate some.
