Fellow Gunners, Partey hasn't had thee best of time at Arsenal but a fit Partey is a no brainer! Let us not forget the Rolls Royce he is!

Georgino played well all season but a fit partey is a level up

Hi Charles, Jorginho has done his part for us this season. Thomas Partey needs to do his part and see out the remaining games of the season. The fluidity and balance he brings to the starting line up is a no brainer, it felt like Declan Rice drove with the ball a lot more against Chelsea.

I stopped thinking about winning the EPL trophy since we lost at home to Aston Villa.

Partey brings confidence to the team. He should start against Tottenham. He should start for the remaining games if his contract has to be considered.

5:33 Someone had their mobile too near the microphone it seems! 😜😂

I think we should keep Partey one more season . Thomas Partey is tough

I'd happily take a winger instead of a 9 this summer. We really need a difference maker, an elite dribbler and someone who's an absolute nuisance. In games like the away game against Bayern, i think the need for a winger who can just run was so clear. Having said that, the games against west ham and Fulham in December showed we need a 9 too

My fear if we go with Martinelli is his defense, there has been a couple goals recently where he has been the one failing to track back and its been his trailing man that's scored. Trossard works harder, tracks and has the finishing, I think if its a toss up I would rather Mr Trossy everyday considering Martinelli's form. We know they're going to counter and we need someone that's going to track back. Cam

Hi Charles Lovely show as always. I would start Trossard and bring on Martinelli as the spurs players tire for his pace. This might be the kick start he needs. Also with the range of parteys passing I think he will find Martinelli more behind the lines

Hi Charles, Here's my starting lineup. Raya White-Saliba-Gabriel-Tomi Odegaard-Partey-Rice Saka-Havertz-Jesus Partey was amazing against Chelsea... I was reminded that his nickname in Madrid was the octopus, because he just collected every loose ball. Passing through the lines and releasing the ball quick. Against Poro we need Jesus' trickery while he is fresh and Martinelli's pace once he is knackered, hence starting with Jesus. Tomiyasu needs to put Kulusevski in his pocket in the same way he did it to Salah at the Emirates last year.

Fantastic match analysis Charles on a game which was a difficult one to assess. I've seen so many differing accounts of the game, however you've got it pretty much spot on. Even if I disagree with some of your player ratings. Although I wholeheartedly agree with your MOM. Fantastic display from Havertz.

If Partey is fit he plays for me

Interesting factoid. Chelsea wasn’t the first time we saw odegaard partey rice midfield. We saw it in the last 20 mins against city at home. Probably some of the best football we played all season. A shame we didn’t see more of it this season.

Great video as always Charles. Crushing news re Tierney. Such a big hit at the Emirates when he first came.

Hey Charles, I'd love to see Raya, White, Saliba, Gabriel, Timber, Partey, Rice, Odegaard, Saka, Havertz and Martinelli, with a big appearance by Jesus, Trossard and Jorginho

Charles I don't know who told you guys Leo doesn't have pace, he's pretty fast and he can control the ball at speed whereas Martinelli runs wild and loses the ball alot

Seeing City last night has smashed my hope in us winning this league! That Villa game was so costly!

Top man Charles

Charles, I’m still upset about the Arsenal - Aston Villa’s game. How did we not win or at least get a point from that game? This has contributed to make things difficult for us.

Hi Charles Gd morning 🎉 So the North London game I think Artate should use the same Midfield we used against Chelsea ( Partey, Rice & Odegaad ) because most importantly I think Partey have improved strategically ( partey is like the engine oil of our Midfield while Rice is the engine itself and Odegaad is Pixton of the engine ) - Because if you notice in the Wolves game when partey came in Declan Rice immediately became a monster upfront & Partey can always connect the front attacking lines with his long passes from deep Midfield. Also our front line should be ( Martinelli, Kai & Saka ) because Tottenham always plays highline attacking so we need runners like Martinelli and Kai who from behind defenders to counter their back line. I know Troussard is our most efficient box finisher but he should come in after 65 or 70 minutes time. Lastly our left fullback defender should be Tomi please No Zinni or Kiwor please 🙏. Cheers 🎉

Thomas in my opinion is the best midfielder from Africa. He is Elite if he is fit play him. #African pride

We need to keep partey. His skill set and composure are unique. His playstyle also suits him as he gets older as he only relies on quick bursts

Thomas partey is our best midfielder,

Hi . Great show . Keep Party and add Timber in place of Tommy in defence.

Always good to see Charles watts

Our best form (on the eye) I feel was before the World Cup last season. Partey was the reason for that fluidity.

Charles facial expressions when he read the comment about Fernandes 😂😂. Love your videos btw. Big Fan 🫡

Partey's injury issues are hopefully behind him, after the operation. Keep him!!!

Hi Charles, would you be able to try and move the mic to the side or use a pop mic cover? The ‘popping’ is bad.

I would start Partey 100%, Jorginho has been great at times but Partey is on another level. I would also start Trossard, for his lack of pace he makes up with his precision with his shooting. We would need to score first and early nd Trossard almost guarantees that. Martinelli can be unleashed in the second half if they (Spuds) i chasing the match and exploit their high line.. 3-0 to Arsenal. Come on You GOONERS 💪💪

Lol no idea why I wrote Federico Fernández. Thanks for your podcast mate. I appreciate it.

We should keep the same midfield next season but replace Elneny with a promising defensive midfielder who could have a season to bed in

Hey Charles! I agree with your line up and line up dilemmas. With so many players fit (finally!) it's a difficult call for MA. Martinelli had some chances to score when he was brought on against Chelsea but didn't take them, which may mean Trossard starts, as he has been out most clinical finisher this season and has banged a few in recently so is clearly on form. Son last scored what will be a month ago. They lost 4-0 to Newcastle. I don't think they can handle us and will be quickly overcome, as we will be at them from the whistle at high intensity. Finishing is key, but 7-0 aggregate in the last 2 games, with Havertz, Trossard, Odegaard and White all scoring, hopefully we can not only win, but bag a few bonus goals as well, to make sure we get as far ahead on GD as we can.

Partey should stay...he is too good to go. Jorginho, Elneneny, Nketia, Nelson, Cedric should all go.

If i had a preference on the midfield for Arsenal next season it would be either Fofana from Monaco or even Paqueta from West Ham. There's gonna be a lot of speculation regarding Arsenal and who they will sign in the summer, whether it be a Midfielder, Striker, Defender and a back up for Saka will just have to wait and see.

Hey Charles, i hope Arteta sticks with the latest 11 against spurs. Parteys dynamic and physicality will be key! My prediction is a 4:2 win for the arsenal. Also hoping Saka will be on the scoresheed! COYG!

Hi Charles,why do you think we struggle to play against teams have have high lines? We've struggled to play against Villa in both games this season and also against Spurs in that game at the Emirates.Personally I would start Trossard on the left tomorrow, Martinelli is really struggling with confidence, honestly I can't remember the last time he beat his man on a 1 v 1.Leo is a very intelligent player,he can use that space left behind by Pedro Porro.

Party should be playing. Georginio is a back up.

Hi Charles. Reference signings, with PSR now in place, value is what Edu and his team will be looking at so BG at 100m is an absolute no-no. I think, with Elneny leaving, Nwaneri will come in, with Eddie leaving (im 90% sure of that) i think Biereth could take his place if he impresses in the summer friendlies and on the training ground. We need a Partey replacement of the highest calibre (though i still think White could be a monster there- we spoke b4 about that here), a right winger to do different to Saka and give him a break, a back up for Saliba, and a keeper with Aaron on his way. Be prepared for a few surprise sales though if good offers come.

Bruno would be a brilliant signing, gives you more bite than someone like Frenkie without losing too much of that technical quality. The fact that we're in for someone like him over Zubimendi is reassuring I must say. Would rather us be looking at someone like Paqueta, Bruno and Frenkie who will directly challenge the starters more

..🤔 Absolutely in Agreement with the individual who asserts Partey should stay at least another year..As frustrating as it has been not having him play his Class is EVIDENT. Rowe,El Neny,Soares,Nketiah,Sancho could all be on the go .Next season we need another quality midfielder..Partey should be kept so that we can push on again next season

Something is disturbing the audio today Charles. Looks like a phone vibrated nearby a few times.

It would be crazy dropping Trossard for Martinelli! Yeah I get Martinelli is faster but his finishing has been terrible and Trossard has been our best finisher! He unlocked big games for us like the Porto game, Chelsea game and Wolves! why would you drop him? he HAS to start

People are saying that Partey took the defensive pressure off Rice but seem to have forgotten that we were quite open to Chelsea in the first half and if Cole Palmer had the same chances that Jackson & co had in the first half we could easily have conceded two or even three. It was NOT a masterclass defensively by Partey in the first half though the second half was a big improvement.

Hi Charles, I just can’t help thinking with all the goals we’ve scored this and last season, is striker really a priority? I think we need to shore up our midfield, get Partey and Jorginho replacements, one this season, another in a year’s time. The way both of these players help us play can’t be highlighted enough, even when we don’t score it’s almost always because we didn’t take our chances and we always create chances when they’re on the pitch. For us to stay at this level for years the midfield must be addressed. Thanks Oye.

Random question, but how do you think Wenger would do with our current team? Would we be better off or worse in your opinion?

Great show! I must disagree on your sentiment that Arsenal MIGHT not need another striker in the ilk of Havertz because of what he provides. Havertz has been great this season, I'm one of many that have grown to love his contribution. I do think Arsenal still need a ruthless #9, specially Viktor Gyokeres. He's quite similar to Havertz in playing style but he is undoubtedly ruthless infront of goal, and can create his own chances we desperately need that. He'd be a better option than Isak even. Also, I hope Bruno G is a player we can really sign. We need depth and quality since Jorghino might leave and Partey has injury issues. That 6 position is so vital and we need an athlete player that can play 6 & 8. The season is long and the quality is increasing in the league. It's even worse in the UCL where the quality is incredible.

I suspect Son saying they've had a week to prepare means that they were given a week of rest, then a week of training. I think he's given the game away there, and I hope he gives the game away at the weekend by missing the target by miles if he's lucky enough to get a shot.

Anyone know why the game is a 2pm kick off? I would've expected the usual 4.30 timeslot. Maybe the crowd incident last season? I'm hoping the earlier timing might dampen the home atmosphere a bit I've got that excitement/nervous feeling that a BIG game brings. A win would mean so much & would definitely up the pressure on City. COYG!

Jargeno cast us the game against Tottenham in the first game so I think he should play party

partey has to start. i would be tempted with martinelli with his pace and there high line

I’m seeing reports all over the gaff that we’ve agreed a deal for Zirkzees up front from Bologna, even offering him a salary package? But apparently his preference is Milan. Not seen Charles even mention this. Odd….

Charles what do you think of bringing Lokonga back into the fold, he started to look decent for Luton before injury?

The time is now, just win our games, see what happens. 🙌🏾

Hey Charles, with Newcastle probably only allowing 1 big sale of either Isak or Bruno, should we look to other clubs like a Frankie at Barca or my personal favorite of Marcus Thurman at Inter. Inter always need to sell one star and I think he (Marcus) has proven himself in Germany and Italy. He would be great with link play and not just a target man plus he can cover all across the Front Line. What is your take?

Arteta should maintain the 1st 11 he used against Chelsea, maybe start Martinelli over Trossard ❤

Charles, the real question I have is, would Isaak WANT to come back to Arsenal?

Hi Charles. Partey to start for me. Maintain the Chelsea squad but start Martinelli as he is better when he starts especially given Spurs speedy n high game.

Considering we are the highest scoring team in the Premiership with Jesus missing for half of that, I just don't see how a Striker is priority. It absolutely has to be a top winger that can take some of the load off Saka. Anything else is a bonus. For me, there is not even a question whether Partey starts. When he's full fit, he's an absolute monster. He also gets a new contract from me. Definitely Martinelli to start as well as Zinchenko.

We hope to see of partey vs spurs

Tbh, I do not think we need to sign a striker. I would prefer we get a back up right winger for Saka and reinforce the midfield.

Koopmeiners from Atlanta will be the perfect fit for the midfield.

If a team wants to pay top money for Partey, they have to sell him. If not, keep him and figure it out later. He should start at Spurs. Trossard is the hot hand, don’t know how you don’t play him. Good pressure on GM to work hard and find his way back (and he will)

Frankie de Jong with odegaard and Rice. . Would be amazing.. zubi or Khephren thuram be great too. Ezequiel Fernandez I think maybe some people want perhaps too ?

Partey playing his way into the libe up? He's first choice when fit.

Trossard will never be on the bench with his current form because he is the best finisher Arsenal have got right now

Ruthlessness would be selling Gabriel Jesus this summer to make room for Gyokeres or Isak (as well as getting a player like Ollie or Neto). It is ruthlessness I haven’t been used to with Arsenal, but after last summer with what we did with the GK position you never know.

Charles please don’t put “Partey” and “injury blow” together in a title again, thanks!

stop with martinelli bias charles. Trossard deserves that place on merit.Period.

Jorginho has been good but I expect the manager to maintain the starting 11 that includes trossard on the left...with trossard we are almost guarantee for at least a goal also let's not forget the mistake jorginho made in the reverse fixture that ended 2 2 draw because of the intensity..partey did well against Chelsea so he deserve to start..Am confidence arsenal will win.🙏🙏✊👍

Jorgh mistake led to 2nd goal v Spurs

We thought Martinelli's pace would be the difference maker in behind against Bayern Munich - how wrong we were! Trossard has consistently demonstrated that he is the best option from the start off the left hand side, offers more link up play and can tuck as a left 8, dovetailing with Declan Rice as seen against Chelsea. Martinelli's inability to play without Jesus and/Zinchenko means that we need to consider our strongest combinations and get them on the field. The Trossard, Rice, Tomi left hand side is superior in helping us to control the game. Additionally, Trossard + Havertz when they play together often score and offer a nice balance up top particularly if we aren't opting for an over-enthusiastic press. Love Martinelli, but he hasn't done a single thing to deserve a start and would love to see him come off the bench if the game state warrants it. Tbh, would like to see ESR get another chance in that position, was sensational there 2021/22 and could be a more viable understudy for Trossard if that's the way we want to play. ESR has the pace and ball carrying ability - also under-rated shooting technique. Lastly, could a switch to right wing for Martinelli allow him simplify his game and opt for cut backs, crosses and driving to the by line, committing defenders on the outside with his pace and trickery. Also a chance to give Saka a rest and bring in a quality alternative.

Don't change a winning team, unless there,s serious injuries.

What’s this Martinelli obsession? Geezer has league 6 goals - including a deflected goal vs City, and 2 against a tired Palace late in the game. He’s been poor this season, and Trossard has been producing the minerals with limited game time too.

We gotta go with same line up against Chelsea for d Spurs match

We should play Trossard as CF and Martinelli on the left. Havertz showed against Bayern and Villa he is utterly useless against a high line

Without the knowledge of what’s going on inside the club as a qualification: Arteta has clearly made a big, big mistake not getting many more minutes into Partey’s legs over the past month. It really is that simple.

Quite a bit of audio feedback btw

Trossard starts in d left flank, Martinelli gotta learn "Finishing" From LT

A draw or win Sunday confirms St Totteringham's Day #COYG

Does Celtic not want KT back? I’d take 8mill for him at this point

Play party trossard we win x

Hi Charles 👋, I hope all is good 👋 👦 ☺️ 👍 😊 🙏. I agree with you about Arsenal not signing Bruno. I would rather Arsenal sign Alexander Isaac. COYG to thrash Tottenham God willing. Have a great weekend Charles 😀. Arsenal rocks 🏆 🙏 🤲 🪨 🎸 😎.

I would pick the same team that spanked Chelsea! COYG!!!!!

No debate. The side v Chelsea was for me our strongest fit eleven. Tell them to go out and wipe the floor with that lot up the road. If we have the same confidence we should knock them over. Start trying to get too clever and defend here and Jesus here and there tactic here and there ..and ..and... -. NOO - None of that Arteta just do the simple thing and play the strongest 11 we have and we'll hammer them.

No reason to change the starting lineup

Trossard deserves start

With Partey just back & looking good he should start v Scum & showcase his talents. But history teaches us not to be sentimental, final year of contract & so we should be looking to sell TTP & wish him all the very best, move on, move up, to be the best we must continually be ruthless. Nothing less will do with the #115 still disgracing the PL.

Spending £100M on another 6 makes no sense, would be best to put that towards that UCL winning moments player. If United were willing to sell Rashford to Arsenal for the region of 70-80M, would you take him? I reckon Arteta could inspire him back to his best👀

High wattage

Selling G. Jesus and Partey at a good price would help to fund signing a top striker and no injury-prone midfielder.

Partey is a wasted roster spot. To spend that kind of wages every year for a player that is constantly injured is lunacy.

Play Thomas partey

If you dont get at least 15 million for Partey then theres no point in selling

I don’t care about pace, play Trossard. Martinelli has been crap, he has the tendency of not doing anything against teams that plays highline

Hi Charles, you need to seriously trim your videos as it is long without much to take out..forward your video for couple of minutes and we wouldnt have missed anything.

Partey ahould be given one more yr till 26, then elniny can leave and joginho but bring either bruno or Fofan frm monaco. We need a winger like crystapace winger or neto. The stricker we can wait amd if kai can contimue and jesus to give us what we need.

Pick up the phone Charlie 😄

Is Arteta who will push for that pkayer for Edu and Garlich to find the money. Arteta is the one in charge not Edu.
