Is Ben White's DEFENDING a PROBLEM? 🤔

[@Shankar_arsfc]

His Overlapping play is brilliant isn't it? Love his link up with Saka

[@lemz.stackz3775]

I don’t think good overlapping is that hard to find in a RB. He needs to be better defensively, especially if we play zinchenko on the other side.

[@chiefnkosi7705]

A few weeks ago, when Arteta benched Ben White for Tomiyasu, he said he is someone who doesn't talk much, especially when something is wrong with him. Even when he is asked, he denies and plays things down, so Arteta will take him off the spotlight when Arteta sees that he's going through something. Then, Tomiyasu got injured, so here we are.

@@MohamedElouarda-qk6ws that can't run. If they signed another one, what happens to White, Tomiyasu, and Jurrien Timber, who are all CB/RB? Kiwior can't even get consistent minutes to build momentum so that he develops. They should avoid having a bloated squad

[@chiefnkosi7705]

@@MohamedElouarda-qk6ws the point is that you shouldn't wait for them to get injured to give Kiwior a game. Rotate them and share minutes among the accordingly. The bloated squad thing was about the defensive signing you talked about, not other areas. However, if they were to invest in a Zubimendi, then they would be replacing 3 players (Partey, Jorginho, and Elneny) with one. Zubimendi covers most aspects of the role played by those 3 players, + they rarely play while eating up the wage bill. That represents quality over quantity.

@@chiefnkosi7705 your theories are true but in pratice, you win trophies by number. City won all their trophies like that, United too in the 2000's. Injuries happens quickly, look Saliba last year. This might happens for Gabi or Sali again for one month this year. Then Kiwi will step up. Look now if Rice gets injured for 1 month. What happens ? We drop in quality. It will be Jorginho or Elneny. If Saka is injured, WE drop in quality, problems happens. If Odegaard gets injured, problems happens...

Being isolated against the wingers 1-1 is the toughest place to be. Sometimes you'll end up looking bad no matter how good of a defender you are because offensive player always dictates the play.

Saliba is good at this but Gabriel can be like this favouring his arms behind his back-kneeling shot block attempt than to prevent a player from getting to that position. I've seen Zincheko caught in this. Arsenal just prefer to move their players into a defensive shape almost like knights defending their king (aka the goal) by surrounding the space around it but it allows players easier touches on the ball that promotes confident dribbling. I need more ruthlessness from our full backs in the future

[@sigfigronath]

theres pros and cons, you could get injured stretching or commiting, and also completely miss the ball and catch the player, hence a yellow or red card. Or get beaten leaving a 2 v 2. Obvious pro is you get the ball and the attack is nullified@@MyMainMan90

[@alexprach]

It's because Arsenal left back and right back defenders have basically been taught to play like Cafu, Roberto Carlos and Philip Lahm, which means they use more energy going forward to help with offense at the expense of using up energy which could have been used for defense. Personally I think Arsenal has consistently had good left/right backs for the past 20 years, but I know they aren't the best at just defending.

[@ebeyslough]

In the Brighton game, Mitoma was ripping him down the left and they were feeding ball after ball to pick on White. Gabriel and Rice had to cover for him quite a few times. Something isn’t right with Ben and i hope he gets it sorted soon. This can be very problematic in tight games as we try to stay top of the league. And then there’s Zinny giving away the ball at least 3 times per game. We need tomi back and add some depth to the squad in Jan

[@andremeyer6596]

Always love these deep dives, your videos make everything easier to understand and think about. Great stuff!

[@gladiatorscoops4907]

I have said this about White for a long time that he isn't particularly good 1 vs 1.He isn't particularly slow, but he isn't particularly fast either, but its not just about that, he doesn't defend aggressively/ with high enough intensity 1 vs 1. Against most attackers his level of defending is fine, its just against some of the absolute flyers he can struggle. However he makes up for this weakness in all other aspects of his game he is a consistent 8/10. I think he is a fantastic player for Arsenal, he just probably won't be that elite level of defender the likes of Lauren, Campbell, Adams - and probably eventually Saliba.

[@firephoenix8074]

I think there is some recency bias as he's looked a bit more defensively frail in the few games since he's been back, but over the course of last season there weren't many situation where he was defensively poor. Although I do see that hes not perfect and him improving on this would make him that much better :)

[@michaelgreen2448]

Some agreed but he often has that gap in the box - I love him but he needs to bounce forward and back to make the attacker commit , as opposed to the other way round because of the gap

[@Lagrange90]

Thanks for this video. I was thinking of this soooo long and therefore thought (wrongly) that White was overrated because nobody ever mentioned his 1v1 ,,problems" ( or to use the word of the channel: region of growth/growth potential) , sometimes even people told me how on earth I could think there was any problem in the first place. And in some games it wasn`t even mentioned, I think sometimes he is somewhat late too (like against Villa) After the video I feel a little bit confirmed and in the same time I am more at peace with it , thanks!

[@theogleeson6357]

I think it's unfair to criticise him in the ross barkley scenario. He may back off a slight bit too much, but the leg he outstretches before he shoots likely covers a goal at raya's far post. He expects raya to have the rest of the goal covered and essentially, although he should be blocking the shot completely, its harsh to put much blame on him.

[@onlyweatherlol93]

That scenario was 100% Raya's fault... White had every right to look at his goalkeeper

[@TetasGunners]

Watch all angles on the McGinn goal there’s a lot of flaws to point out in Ben atm he’s bought in to a false sense of security to start he then makes a defensive action to block the center space both Saliba and Rice adjust themselves but ultimately Ben just doesn’t do enough to anticipate the cut back to McGinn or block the shot. Yes Zinny and Raya can do better but Ben for me has recently had these kind of moments too indecisive and the margins are too thin.

[@spidermannoir6193]

Dan Burn did an interview where he talked about having agreements with your GK about preventing attackers from being able to shoot at one area of the goal while the GK can then put more emphasis on covering the other parts of the goal. Perhaps that was what he was doing with the Barkley goal.

[@TetasGunners]

@@spidermannoir6193 I hear what your saying Raya in the Barkley situation for me has to save that attempt but White does not give him much to work off. Look at the space Barkley is in to start and for how much time, Ben does not have one scan in that time then backs off him as he approaches the goal not good enough from either player but again ultimately Ben white needs to do better as we know he can.

[@ChiefRepublic]

Great analysis. Harry is right that the most important thing is to take charge and in our back line I think Saliba is the only who does that. If you're going to get roasted, you might as well get roasted on your own terms i.e. Saliba against Elye Wahi. The thinking being is that if you back off you give the attacker more time to think, more time to get support and sustain the attack. I tend to think rushing the attacker yields greater results provided you are not the last man.

[@GHAddict112]

Come for the analysis, stay for the relationship advice

[@alexprach]

Ben White is basically the modern William Gallas, he wants to play in the centre but also wants to go forward. Arteta has correctly moved him back to the right so he can go forward more often without affecting the defensive structure. In terms of thinking process on how to defend well, I sometimes feel that a simpler defender will usually think much more straight forward kick and clear, but Ben White together with Saliba and Zinchenko are required to do much more than just defend, sometimes you need a team mix with smart and straight forward defenders (like Gabriel). Tony Adams was the smart defender and Keown was the straight forward one and they basically cover for each others weaknesses and improve their strengths. The advantages of more straightforward defending is often faster reaction times, but you'll often lose control of the ball due to lack of awareness. The way I play defence is more straightforward as I will put all my energy into stealing the ball, but that means once i've taken it, i'll have a harder time figuring out what to do with the ball, defenders no longer hoof the ball across the pitch nowadays so it makes sense they need to spend more mental energy keeping the ball under control.

Ben white is a problem not just in defending but also attacking , and this is very obvious this year , he is very slow , no character in the field , no passion he acts as the new boy in the class very shy and knows he doesnt fit , i think he wil be replaced this january or this summer and be a Bench player or when timber comes back he will be on the bench ,, he is the weak link in this team . and the problem with this kind of characters is they can never improve

He gets cooked by rashford every single time

[@ashley5130]

He's a problem defending and too casual we have two VERY VERY casual fullbacks because Zinchenko is also VERY casual and gets caught on the ball so does Ben White and this is a part of his game I don't like 🔥

Imma comment before I watch to state that I strongly disagree, I'll be back again after watching to give the gist of my argument

[@aaron._zw]

I wish I was. I'm gonna be stuck in transit, forced to watch from my laptop

[@SteveBarrow-lp2ns]

@@aaron._zw Awww that's a shame. If you're free next weekend my friend has a spare ticket for sale for the Liverpool game. Fancy it?

John stones could do what Ben white does and more.

[@morrisonsman1493]

Hes good but world class is a stretch 😂

[@itzxm1k347]

Rob holding was way better. White should of gone to Palace instead!

[@charles9489]

Kyle Walker

[@julianaviles4244]

BENJAMIN BLANCO

[@ebubeemmanuel6231]

A fully fits Takeiero Tomiyasu is far better and Reliable than Ben White and Zinchenko

[@natnaeldemisse275]

For a former center back he can't defend to save his life. Average at best
