Why do you like to oversimplify and dumb things down as much as possible in a discussion? What is inherently wrong about speaking on more detailed and complex terms?

Why does it always have to be "short, slow, schoolboy" or "tough, tall, muscly, workhorse" or "no coin, yes coin"?

Hard to make any pro or con arguments when you have made up your opinion already and are waiting for the player to fail so you can say "I told you so". :D

Excellent showing under difficult circumstances. The difference he makes to the general flow of our game is immense. Had a few glimpses of that brazillian flair as well.

He was great today because Spurs didn't park the bus. They tried to press him and Arthur is great at maintaining control of the ball. He is completely press-resistable. They just could not dispossess him. It is against parked buses when no one presses him Arthur struggles atm and dwells too much on the ball because of lack of passing options.

Roma didn't park the bus either. Neither did PSG when they beat us 4-0. Or Juve. Teams don't park the bus anymore against us. They press us.

Deserves a start this weekend vs Valencia.

Thought before the match that he could have struggled a bit due to the lack of game time prior to this but boy I was wrong.
