As long as Arteta doesn’t live and die by playing out from the back we might have a chance. We already know city will press high to get possession back as quick as possible and will hold the ball.With B.Silva dropping deep we will be forced to sit off, pressing high line against City is disaster for this inexperienced side, do you think Gabriel can be able to hold high line throughout 90minutes ?, No mate, City will destroy us thru transition.
We need to just be patient and play tight and with what’s in front of us. I also think we need to drop Martinelli to the bench for Smith Rowe. We need players that have a high IQ passing game to be able to break city down and Smith Rowe has a better passing game then Martinelli.
We need to start either Maitland Niles or Soares at right back also not Ben white because Holding won’t be able to handle cities speed up front.
