Midfield Dynamics and Tactics

In this episode we look back at the 1-1 draw with Brighton on Saturday, chatting first about how the game was going with Kai Havertz's excellent goal putting us in front, before we turn to the big incident: the Declan Rice red card. We discuss the referee's decision, and the consequences for the player and the team – which aren't limited to just this game. Then we talk about Arsenal's response, the goal we conceded, and the chances we had to take all three points. After the break there are questions about the transfer window, the arrival of Raheem Sterling and the window as a whole, Rice's role in this team which is now complicated by the Mikel Merino injury, a left-hand choice between Martinelli, Trossard and Sterling, and lots more.
