True,seen much of nwaneri in preseason than I had seen Fabio played for arsenal

Sometimes feels like he's overthinking it and overcoached. He needs to relax and play his game. The ability is there. we've seen moments with wonderful passes and good technique hitting the ball. Just needs to get it right mentally

He does look very timid

Spot on

so true. he lacks confidence in his own abilities it seems. his diminitive nature should help him being elude players easily. Messi, Silva, etc

If there is anyone who can tell Viera , to hit the gym and work on his strength , I love watching him play but hit strength lacks

He is just needs more playing time, indeed a highbrid of Bruno and Silva, check out the technics of his passes both long and short, and dribbles like Silva

He does need a loan if we aren't going to try to sell him, he will not get much gametime with ødegaard, havertz and maybe even a fit smith-rowe in the team.

cheeky cheeky

Not because there's a diff between the teams😂😂😂😂😂😂 are you having a laugh, arsenals 1st team last year was top 5 in Europe

We paid too much for him after only playing 6 months at a good level. He was a £20m player at the most. No wonder no-one else was in for Fábio Vieira and we got a free run.

@@SmartCookie2022 he's got talent I wouldn't write him off just yet but it's not looking good

I get your point, but ødegaard was player of the month in the second month after he came over on loan. He changed and elevated the team from day one. Vieira just isnt that guy.

I think Ødegaard also benefits from being older, having gone on loans, had to work really hard to prove he’s worth it. Fabio may just need more experience under his belt before he fits in at Arsenal.

@@snaggiz thats a good point, ødegaard had to climb the ladder and proved himself 2 leagues before he came to arsenal. He really had to work for it, ive followed him since he played the domestic league and with him you can really see the physical and mental progression from year to year, its like every year he has always come back better and better. There are stories about him from his time in holland how extreme he was, working like a dog, always first in and last out. One of his team mates said he used to take the trim bike into the sauna and just sweat it out like a madman. Arteta commented on ødegaards mentality in an interview this summer, brutal is the term he used. Its some Norwegian mentality thing, haaland is the same, just extreme to the point of obsession. You can see how quickly both of them adapted to the premier league physically, you see the work rate in games. This training culture originated in some crazy state olympic training program for norwegian xc skiers. Those guys has the highest O2 uptake in world sports, they clean out the winter olympics every time winning 9/10 medals and this program has been transfered to other sports branches and produced dominant athletes such as ødegaard, haaland, the track running ingebrigtsen brothers who are currently smashing long distance world records and many others. Thats what vieira is up against for that right sided nr 8 spot and frankly i dont think he can compete. He doesnt bring anything ødegaard doesnt have and he just gets destroyed in every metric head to head.

​@@wildchild3862Wow.....just wow!! I didnt know this about our Odegaad!! We are very lucky to have him!! What a loss for Madrid. Can't wait for season to start! COYG ⚽️👍💪

If you're trying to do a like-for-like, Grealish was levels above Fábio Vieira at Aston Villa, whereas Vieira only had 6 reasonably good months with Porto. Face it, Vieira won't make the cut at Arsenal and will be sold at a huge loss.

@@SmartCookie2022 he is talking about adapting to a new team and understanding how the coach wanted him to play mate.

@@SmartCookie2022’Face it’ as if your Nostradamus. Vieira has been sub par, but this notion that he has no chance whatsoever is short sighted imo.

@@SmartCookie2022 I agree.. He's garbage and has absolutely no redeeming skillsets for him to set this league alight. We literally wasted 34 million that could have been spent on Arda Guller who even Ozil reccommended two seasons ago, only for Real to swoop in. We are a JOKE at scouting players.. It's either Man city or chelsea rejects

Grealish was rubbish at first but he was not timid

Adaptation period? He had a whole season 😂

@@Starwars0405exactly what I thought. This season beginning is make or break.

He might take 2 more seasons to adapt to Arteta's arsenal. Not only does he have to improve his physicality. He also needs to improve his determination, work rate, fighting spirit, keeping hold of the ball, literally every quality that a good midfielder needs. 😅

I saw it against Brenford last season☺️. I trust arteta

underrated post, this.

You're spot on about this, he doesn't seem to have the mobility of a top class player, certainly not near the ones you mentioned. He's a very good dribbler and has good passing and vision, but lacks the other important physical attributes to be a top level footballer, at least in England. Looking great in under 21 competitions is a completely different kettle of fish to doing it at the very top level with all the grown ups. I think Arsenal took a very expensive, calculated gamble on Vieira and I don't think it's going to pay off. They need to loan him out to a mid table club, hope he has a standout season and see if they can cash in on him for more or less the same money.

Could've just written Dribbling 😂

bang on people talk about physicality he is just not that good at manuvering the ball

Nwaneri is 16, he wont.

@@sigfigronath Nwaneri showed more confidence and drive in half a game vs Nurnberg than Vieira has in his entire Arsenal career so far. Give him another year and he will.

Nwaneri is levels above Fábio Vieira and should get game-time ahead of him.

❤

😂😂😂😂. Comment of the sencury bro

Your club will be fine

What are you worried about? With the players you've got and the new coach, it might take time but I genuinely think you guys can have a good season

I don’t really mind chelsea I just hate spurs and man united but I hope mudryk flops badly again and regrets his decision in going Chelsea in the first place

He is not good Enough mate

​@@oviegrantdigbori9659It seems that way for now

​@@oviegrantdigbori9659 Not sure how you can be so definitive when, he hasn't played many minutes, he hasn't played in (arguably) his strongest position and also, he's only 23!

I think ESR will rotate with Odegaard this season not Fabio.

​@@oviegrantdigbori9659gnabry didn't seem good enough either. I say he deserves a chance next season.

🤣🤣

Ure a waste

😂😂😂😂

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

???

Thanks again!

Yup, he's undoubtedly technically gifted and produces the rare outstanding moment. The problem is their rarity. He needs to be more involved in each game. When Odegaard plays, he's CONSTANTLY dictating the action. Viera goes missing for 90% of every game he plays. His contributions during the remaining 10% are usually fantastic, but he needs to be contributing more often! As much as Ozil was criticized for going missing, Viera is significantly worse. I don't know if it's a confidence issue or a system issue, but it's something he needs to fix. It's also not a great sign that his replacement at Porto is putting up similar numbers, which would suggest his success at Porto may have been more about the team and their system, than his individual quality. Or maybe Eustaquio is just criminally underrated (as a Canadian and an Arsenal supporter, I hope it's the latter).

Thank you mate 😊

I think Arteta needs to review his future next summer. £30m paid for him, atm his output is not good enough for that tag. Would be happy to see him loaned out, but currently not pl ready or suited

Good way of putting it

Bad weather

Also heard that. Clearly worrying that he still cannot get his positioning right despite so many training session since he joined.

Sometimes Pep does it, he will learn and grow. Still young.

@@jackwilliam2965 You don't get time to learn and grow at Arsenal anymore, not at senior level. If you can't master it in your first year, what hope is there for your second?

I agree. He may well be a lovely lad but that is not what we judge players on first. Saka is rare breed of tough and sweet. I fear he doesn't have a warrior mentality like Bernardo Silva. It can click but if it's not inside it won't. Let's hope.

Is this George or Bhavvs Maybe Alex replying to his own video 🧐🧐🧐 Whoever it is, Big Fan DR41 is a gunner btw😑

He actually didn't start that many games in Portugal

He needs a loan to prove himself. Otherwise he needs to be sold ASAP.

The old pre-season excuse. So, by your reckoning Vieira should knock it out the park this season, or do you have a ready-made excuse for that misfire as well?

Nvm you half mentioned it

Just like you did Pepe, no doubt.

Thank you very much my man, super kind. ❤️

hopefully not, because the level drop when he plays for ødegaard is enormous. We look like a different team. Just the thought of him playing 15 games instead of Ødegaard makes me angry.

He was looking to create space a lot of time. More hiding in player shadow

Thats also a very true concern, we have leo, nelson, esr, martinelli sharing one position but no one to backup Saka.

He couldn't even cope with sporting in Europa league

​@@rashidkhalid3970 After the MLS All-Star game, I'm more of the belief that my original understanding is correct. His read of the game looks better and his pocket finding was better as well. He was making some great little flicks that easily unlocks a defense and players were reading them. In the Europa League, he didn't seem to have that read with the team yet. I'm starting to see a pattern with Arteta's system where it takes about a year to settle into it fully. Especially for the creative brains of the team. Havertz and Odegaard seems to be a pairing that Arteta is trying and Troussard/Vieira seems to be the other. It seems to work too. So we'll see more in pre-season, but I think you're going to see Europa League Vieira wasn't the Vieira we bought.

Thank you man!

Different in that Vieira probably has football brain (why Mikel.likes him ) which Pepe didn't. But so far has shown up until now he doesn't have a big ❤. Physicality is not just about body size
