The disrespect Thomas Partey gets is disgusting. Arsenal became unbeatable when he came last season to help Declan Rice.

Havertz is 6' 4" not 6' 3"

The overshirt is really on trend in the sky studios

[thArts]

I love to see Adingra or lookman in that attach for back up

[joshuad]

the invincibles were a big team too. as for merino, he's a #8...a replacement for lokonga.

Arteta will cook with Moreno especially winning his duels, he will give Arsenal more threat at set pieces. he will make big impacts, no doubts

[Burrdmizzle]

Wasn't expecting M. Kudus to be on this list I thought he mostly just a top dribbler good to know 😅

Everybody knows partey isn’t getting another contract, only reason he’s still at the club is he didn’t want to leave this season.

The biggest thing is Arteta and Edu are building depth just like Man City. Some of the first 11 players played way too many minutes. With the new signings Arsenal will be able to rotate more and be fresher at the end of the season. Last season the they had to bring on players like Elneny, Cedric Soares and Kiwior. They're building much better depth now.

Guys just give us the EPL trophy already

2:06 All them heights are wrong except Calafiori

Edit: Excluding Merino aswell

[Anthony_Bridges]

Hes 6 ft 4 Havertz. Who gets these stats?

[TheMAUSoundsLikThis]

The space Gundogan gets when they double up on Haaland means he can bang in the goals.

If they concentrate on Gundogan then Haaland will roast them.

It's funny no one remembers how Arteta decided to play Partey from the right back and trying something entirely different from where he played him during d community shield and preseason matches.Those try and error led to Partey earlier injury chrises.Partey is giving his best in Arsenal jersey always ❤

[noufohere]

2:00 you forgot abt Thomas Partey. He is one of the tallest and most physical guys in the squad. Didnt Arteta bring him in?

[MRBp]

Sky consistenly put at the wrong figures wrong heights, wrong transfer fees.

[banksy]

Gundogan is 33yrs old, I'd be surprised if he played that much minutes

[ShutThePuck]

Merino is a box to box midfielder, he isn't eating up Partey and Jorginho's minutes, he's a backup to Rice who can also allow Partey/Jorginho to rest as Rice slots into the 6 when it's time to defend a lead.

That pundit's cyan jacket is a crime against humanity

[makhanu]

Mikel signing Mikel to give himself some competition. These are the fogging standards.
