That’s his secret: He’ll never go bald

[@taffydimples]

He'll never go bald though, it's not in his genes

[@CactusClai]

They have passed the PL test already regardless if they win the title or not. Now they need to overcome Bayern and if they do. Arsenal and Arteta are headed to greatness ahead.

[@void0350]

[@minge9]

I think Luton's manager said it best. Unlike the other two teams that are in the race, Arsenal is the only team that can play any way possible with different approach

[@yf9409]

I also heard him say that on Wednesday

[@Coach-rq6jx]

When I used to put on Arsenal during quarantine, the lineup used to depress me. Now, Arsenal has one of the most recognizable and powerful squads in English primera liga, so I can give Arteta props there.

[@sirengobrian4405]

Nowadays we don't even care about the lineup, we just trust our manager

[@Coach-rq6jx]

@@sirengobrian4405 Would you say Odegaard is a no.10, a playmaker, or a deep-lying orchestrator now? I haven't watched Arsenal much this season, the only game was the last one vs Man City, and that one didn't offer enough to make conclusions.

[@hamoudziane]

​@@Coach-rq6jx I'd say he's an 8/10 hybrid I won't commit to one role , but he's clearly trying to be a 10 in the pass and an 8 in his pressing and tackling. There's more to it than that, but he's on paper our creative right sided 8.

[@sirengobrian4405]

@@Coach-rq6jx depends on the opposition we are facing, and the system we are using Sometimes he stays up there near Saka, sometimes he is the B2B midfielder, sometimes he switches position with Rice

[@theoph1932]

Man look at the line up, 4 years and only Saka and ESR remained from Arteta's first game. That is 18 players GONE

[@notfunny007]

Your editing is getting better and better every video

[@swrve18]

Arteta is so underrated, I love it when people dismiss all his brilliant tactics and just say he's a pep clone...

[@taffydimples]

I actually hate it coz they belittle and demean his abilities, ball knowledge and intuition

[@Kobble8]

I’d love to see more analysis for Arsenal. They seem a lot more unpredictable than last season and it’s lovely to watch

[@ajmalaj4381]

The one thing that gives Arsenal a shot in UCL this time is their unpredictability in the style of play, opponents will never know which Arsenal that's gonna turn up.

[@awonkemsutu3866]

Arteta such a unique footballing brain and his tactical evolution season upon season has been interesting to see. Him being under Moyes clearly shows with the way he coaches & embraces defensive side of the game & how he prioritizes physicality over technical ability more so than Pep. Rice Partey Kiwior Gabriel Tomiyasu White Timber all physical and athletic specimens playing in the spine & at FB. His Wenger influence also shows with how fluid Arsenal are at their best in the final 3rd & in middlefield & how different players contribute to goals. His obviously has similarities to Pep in possession & structurally but he's not a mere clone there are obvious differences.

[@pattyx9050]

If anyone had told me FMS has been studying Arsenal, I’d not believe it… nice editing & more lovely analysis here … kudos 👍

[@HT3897]

Can you make a video of "current" real Madrid tactics it look like this since 5-6 games 4-2-2-2 wide with no striker but wingers and midfield box like de zerbis brighton. They have so many players on sides and open the def opponent for Runners behind like vini jr, rodrygo or brahim.

[@Coach-rq6jx]

To be fair, that 4222 tactic has been the thing ever since the away loss vs Atletico in the league in September where our wide areas got swarmed by Lino and Llorente (First tried vs Osasuna in October, then vs Cadiz in November. It has been the go-to ever since). It was a slow and difficult process hindered multiple times because of Vini's and Bellingham's injuries and suspensions, but now that they're available, it's finally come to fruition. The Girona game was the prime example. Bellingham and Valverde protect the flanks very well. As much as I liked the diamond, this one is much more balanced and can give room to lightning-fast counterattacks.

[@karrat3004]

Loooool fact that this video popped up after they lost to aston villa

[@Rado1998]

Great job man! You showed us the changes of his tactic interestingly, short and indicating the most crucial factors. Keep going!

[@WildIlic]

This aged like fine wine

[@IamFootballmerc]

Even tuchel ,whom people said would never be caught tactically, especially after winning the ucl in 2021 with Chelsea, was still caught out....arteta is a no exception

[@johnlau6749]

because opposition knew and figure out how to counter tuchel's and arteta's tactics. The matter is managers come to PL has to be innovative on the gameplan or else poor result for sure. City won the league last season actually because of new gameplan found by Pep

[@preciousmichael9506]

One man team. You are intelligent. Your football knowledge is 🔥🔥

[@footballdecipher]

[@protagonist9794]

Sublime video ❤

[@aaronhkc]

Thanks for the Video to show Arteta is NOT a COPYCAT of Guardiola , and prove his ability for creating tactics💪🏻💪🏻

[@emmancrafts.]

Despite losing the prem by only 2 points - all your points still made perfect sense. Arteta is getting closer and closer to success and a few more signings and adjustment to tactics will ensure atleast a great CL run and potentially even the premier league. “Next season FC” will bounce back.

[@loretta4293]

Thank you Arteta

[@iblaze1085]

Its similar to City, just Arsenal have Havertz who can play as a 9-10 hybrid unlike Haaland . Its almost a 3-4-3 box with a false 9

[@tevineonly4927]

the 2-3-5 formation though isn't immune to transitions, take for example against Chelsea although they built with a back 3 but a 442 with two false 9s and wingers willing to be advanced of the former would exploit the space left behind by the fullbacks while also the team maintained a box midfield against arsenal's midfield box too

[@pratikthapa6218]

amazing video as always

[@Londonechoes]

Great Analysis! White has arguably been our best player this season, though overs may get the plaudits

[@ArseianLee]

Excellent analysis as always, However like what it is being summarized - Arteta is very good at SOLVING problems. Solving problem is a reactive mode, and I am afread in a PL environment with Pep, this means Arsenal under Arteta Will Never get over the line. Simply because Pep is creating things where all his followers are just being reactive. Thus you always saw There are those few games Or period where team are taking time to solve Their problems and in process dropping points (like Home draw with Hotspurs Or Draw and Loss with Fulham)…with such a fine margin That means you will most likely always behind Peps Mancity come round 38

[@RANDOM12345640]

[@amirulmuhtadun3856]

He learned that he cannot go beast mode on every single matches like last season, I'm thankful for that

[@KidneyLicker]

Just because the playstyles may look same doesn't mean he is a clone. Arteta is a very adaptable manager

[@timothyoluwafemi8078]

Sometimes you have to use what you ve learnt

[@muhammadhanif4113]

Arteta improve alot,his tactic more pragmatic and has more variant right now. If arsenal sign 3-5 right players next summer,we would be on par with city.

[@JerseyArewe-gc9yq]

Arteta is a genius

[@shaheemjackson283]

Mastery is approaching you mate! Keep it up! P.S: Yet another reason as to why Jorginho is so underrated...

[@ianndeda3508]

Arsenal while greatly improved, still have the toughest run of games remaining.... Can't see them winning the PL

[@user-re6ne4iw4v]

How do you have such a precise outlook?

[@michaelbryant4772]

I've appreciated what Arteta's done with Arsenal tactically. I've always questioned their mental toughness and grit in the last few games of the season and now taking on Alonzo's impressive Leverkusen's side in C.L..

[@Coach-rq6jx]

Doesn't...Arsenal face Tuchel's Bayern in the UCL now? Leverkusen are in the Europa League... I'm confused.

[@wahidj4773]

Basically their main strength is that right side. Last season, the only goal the scored at etihad came from that right side. I think over crowding the right side would do something great against them.

[@chazclifford327]

FMS should not have made this. They are hurting rival fans. I also love how you left out the EFL cup and replaced it with the community shield lol.

[@markpotter544]

😂good way to spin it as positive, arteta was forced into this as it s the obvious solution based on what he has: havetz is natural at false 9 and just very average as midfielder, then the sale of xhaka, havetz being more of a striker and partey injury, rice being less pf a progressive than partey meant that jorginho had to step in,, and given the type of player he is a pivot is his most logical position. Furthermore, jorginho is not the most physical player, and having him and zinchenko at the base of the box is risky so then kiwior steps and rice pften operates deep. Arteta made it work but it's the problem that he himself created (when he failed to replace xhaja), he essentially solved what he himself did in the first place, and thats good but I wouldn't go as far as hailing him for it. It also took him a long time to arrive to this logical solution in my opinion, and some points were lost along the way, but he eventually did and thats good. Still, playing a pirlo type role could be the way forward for arsenal but I still think that playing with two 8s with rice in dm is probably what s gonna happen, whether the second 8 is esr or someone else, we ll see
