Lol.
Absolutely first choice if fit. It’s not even a close debate.

True. But they have the same average number of good performances per season. Same goals scored too. Granted we had one useless twat a lot longer.
Lucas was never injured though, which was a problem in itself.
Jota’s goal had shades of Firmino against Arsenal when he left half the team on their arse with some sexy footwork and composure.
Haha yeah. Not sure how anyone can not think he's a definite starter when fit. Superb link up play today, such quick feet and classy passing. Made one noticeable error and should also have done better with one attack in the penalty box. 8/10 performance.

Nah Lucas didn't have anywhere close to as many. Unless you are suggesting Lucas had a lot more than most give credit for? 😀
He had that spell where he got the wonderman nickname. Something like 12 games.
Yep. He is clearly in better form than Robbo at the moment. He had another excellent game yesterday and deserves to keep his place. Competition should do Robbo some good.
The rest he’s getting should pay dividends. He’s played more than anyone else over the past 3 seasons hasn’t he?
Thiago looked better yesterday because he won the ball a few times. The problem is he keeps hold of it a second too long so he's often in danger of losing it again. And it takes him an extra moment to pass the ball because he's got a weird way of kicking the thing, a kind of showboat touch that makes you think Zoolander has learned to play footy. Until you see Arteta's hair and think, nope, that's Zoolander.
We were always going to beat Arsenal.
But it looked good yesterday, I must admit.
When you watch that and then read some of the comments you have to think ... "what the fuck were they watching" ?
my boys
Arsenal were really awful yesterday. They totally lacked ambition and clearly came with the intention of playing for a draw and maybe sneaking a win.
They were clearly afraid of a tonking. As Lucas would say. "Unluckeeeeee"
It seems that Arteta has learned some Guardiola tricks when it comes to overthinking games and not letting his team play their natural game.
Though it could be argued that being spineless bottlers is precisely Arsenal's natural game.

He can't play holding midfielder. He struggled there last year. He looks excellent when Fab is holding
Taki heat map for his goal:
The Greek looked a waste of money and rubbish in his first season where he made a sub appearance against Man City when we were getting beat 4-1 with 5 minutes left?
Ok....
