We must PUNISH teams | Mikel Arteta | Arsenal 1-2 Liverpool

One or two more signings being lined up before the start of the season....watch this space

Ironically, Zinchenko in midfield and Havertz as left back might have worked better. Truthfully, a clinical finisher is a must.

Zinchenko wasn’t great, but I thought Kiwior at center back was equally poor. He looked so nervous and constantly turned back towards his own goal. And Jesus is such a weird player to figure out… he is so gifted with the ball at his feet, but games seem to pass him by so much - and this was a friendly!

Please bring in Gyokeres, Mikel. We need a certified and strong number 9

Was at the match tonight in Philly. Arsenal missed several key players and it was felt. But it was a good match, and loved see the boys in action

Playing Zinchenko at left back against Salah is like taking a knife to a gun fight its unfair to Zinchenko to be honest and Arteta should stop torturing Zinchenko with such arrogant team selections

MIKEL MERINO HERE WE GO AND STRIKER WE GO AGAIN ❤

No punishment without a prolific and natural number nine, please bring Viktor Gyokeres to compete with Jesus and Kai Havertz.Salah has become a dose to zinchenko

Not decisive in the final 3rd. Still the same slow buildup play from last season. Arsenal were caught in possession several times as well. Liverpool was undoubtedly the better side today.

Arteta hasn't disappointed the past two seasons. He's always equipped the team with what they need, it is up to the lads to step up to the plate.

This game shows why Arteta wants Merino. I love Thomas Partey but he is incapable of controlling a game he is too loose with his passing and it leads to too many turnovers....that won't happen with Rice and Merino in midfield.

I think we need to improve our midfields in this game Miss rice and saka

Gyokeres we need you 😊

Aggression requires skills and our shooting hasn't been top notch despite the record number of goals scored. Could have easily got 10 (and many points!) more... and even the title. Villa game 1H anyone? Jesus not going to suddenly become injury free and score 20+ goals. Havertz remains doubtful as a 20+ goal scorer. That's why we needed an option. Get a new striker to have a chance. MF isn't up to scratch. Martinelli needs and deserve more support to regain his mojo and goals. Need flair not just able bodies so Ruiz rather than Merino unless we get both , not bad for 50m or so... Its not this about this pre season result, these improvement needs are known well before the tour so pls fix them during the TW while we can.. that also means don't give away valuable asset like Eddie for peanuts.... 16.9m£ you got to be joking right ? Half of ESR value?? Edu must do his job properly in player sales!

Ideally, the left back position would be rotated between Calafiori and Tomiyasu, but both are prone to injuries.

Arteta has not marketed Arsenal or used robust promotion from marketing teams BUT simply did perform and improve the way the gunners played the style and emulated barcelona,man city ..

The two arsenal logos together on the right is giving me an ocd nightmare

After disturbing my sleep and watching the game. I have to say, Kai must not play in the Midfield. He should be a second striker. Jesus should compete with Saka, striker is not his position. Zinchenko mustn’t play in the left position anymore. The team needs a proper striker and Additional midfielder.

Martinelli was probably our most attacking and direct player.. We NEED A PACY ST LIKE GYOKERES..AND zinny should never play lb..HE OFFERS NOTHING IN SUPPORT OFFENSIVELY OR DEFENSIVELY

Zinchenko will cost us the league as well as a lack of the striker. I swear.
