š“āŖļø Something changed in Arsenalās build-up last night. Mikel Arteta quietly inverted William Saliba into midfield ā and almost no one noticed 𤯠The tweak reshaped EVERYTHING! Full breakdown EXCLUSIVELY @ http://www.ebl2017.com/p/why-m... & X Subscriptions. THREAD! šØ
@EBL2017 I used to study every single thread. Now, it's all behind a pay wall. Can't even enjoy a morning feast anymore without wasting £10
@EBL2017 The commentators picked up on it actually. Adds an extra body in attack and heās quick enough to get back. I just think heās switched it from Gabriel doing it.
@EBL2017 Is Hincapie any good re inverting? Maybe it was a needs must situation.
@EBL2017 No one noticed yet arteta was asked about it ā ļø
@EBL2017 Saliba inverting to DM from RCB but you should note that this CB inversion by Saliba can ONLY work because of HincapiƩ's mobile ability to play as an LB in a back four and an LCB in a back three. HincapiƩ is the cog that makes all this possible.
@EBL2017 No one noticed but everyone is talking about it lol
@EBL2017 Everyone noticed. It was even asked in the post match press conference.
@EBL2017 everyone noticed it man...
@EBL2017 I did and even tweeted about how much of a genius our manager is tactically
@EBL2017 This was obvious yesterday though.
@EBL2017 Saliba did this even against Liverpool before his injury
@EBL2017 Think lots of people noticed. Various explanations why: Zubiās suspension, and Slaviaās tendency to press one on one likely factors?
@EBL2017 We all noticed mate
@EBL2017 But when Amorim does it it's not elite š š
@EBL2017 Almost everyone noticed it
@EBL2017 I thought I was the only person that saw this, he would have made a good through pass to Saka but he feared and didn't
@EBL2017 I have always said it that Mikel Arteta is the most intelligent manager in the Europe he just needs a few major trophies and people would begin to realise it
@EBL2017 I thought this would not be exclusive!
@EBL2017 I mentioned this one a group Iām on immediately I noticed it.
@EBL2017 Almost no one noticed? I think literally everybody on my TL noticed and is talking about it
@EBL2017 I noticed... Was yelling at the TV, what the f's saliba doing up the pitch. š¤£
@EBL2017 Any comp
@EBL2017 Lol, he said almost no one noticed, everyone with an eye that watched the game does.
@EBL2017 Fire analysis
@EBL2017 Drop thread here too mate!
@EBL2017 I was hoping this wouldn't be an exclusive but I can't blame you at allš Getting more and more tempted every day to subscribe to that Patreon of yoursš¤
@EBL2017 Lol I saw that. That First half was a different type of Arsenal
@EBL2017 Yes, i'm notice bro
@EBL2017 Can someone provide some comps on Slauba popping in midfield?
@EBL2017 Wilo was a striker in another life before Coach Mbappe (Julianās dad) moved him to CB defender. I wonāt be surprised if Wilo goes on a stealth mission this season. If you see one of the coaches or the Gaffer mouth, āHail Mary?ā
@EBL2017 Well I noticed and I bet some others did too. I asked the question: "Why is Saliba playing in midfield?". Especially midway into the first half. š
@EBL2017 Saliba was able to slip into midfield because Hincapie is a central defender who is just as good as good playing at left back, he played at left back last night so when Saliba went into midfield, Hincapie fell into a back 3 of Timber, Gabril and himself
@EBL2017 I swear I noticed
