Match Thread Arsenal v Everton - Preview, Match Report and MotM Poll

Why does Delph put himself into those 50/50 tackle situations

That's usually a problem of declining speed for older players; your instincts developed over years say you can get there first, but your body doesn't deliver.

It's really hard to adapt to, because you have to rebuild decision-making from the ground up; as an example, Federer was a half-step slow to balls for several lean (by his standards) years before adjusting enough to grab a few more Slams.

Too much passing backwards. Gotta get forward again

 

[R.Reddington]

Delph.

 

[BainesontoastNEW]

Nice first touch by Sigurdsson.

 

[PhilM]

Literally only just realised Ozil was playing.

His fall from grace is quite a spectacular one isn't it. Up until three seasons ago, I would have put him down as one of the best in the league if not Europe.

Now, I'm pretty confident that many teams in the league would say no if they were offered him because he doesn't looked bothered at all.

Iwobi fam

 

[KaiserEFC]

So Delph filled up the water bottles and folded the bibs for Man City yeah?

 

[Mikey_Fitzgerald]

Play it out wide Iwobi

 

[AmericasToffee]

If you'd have asked me who would put the first ball forward in about ten minutes of play, it certainly wouldn't have been Schneiderlin who I guessed

 

[ForeverBlue92]

For Godsake Iwobi what is he doing

 

[Darrenc34]

Delph needs to do better or start from the bench! Still a good player tho

 

[Efcjake]

Iwobi plays in clogs

 

[Archie Knox]

Koff Iwobi

Fair to say Iwobi has left his shooting boots at home.
