Carragher suggests the two best players for Arsenal at the moment
Popular football pundit Jamie Carragher has suggested that Arsenal should stick with Mikel Arteta despite the club’s poor start to the season. The Spaniard guided Arsenal to FA Cup success last season, but the Gunners have made a poor start to their 2020/21 season so far. Arsenal have been very inconsistent this season, and find themselves 15th in the league table following their 2-0 defeat against Tottenham Hotspur in the north London derby. Carragher has questioned the club’s recent signings, branding it as a ‘joke’. The Sky Sports pundit specifically mentions Willian, Cedric Soares and David Luiz, and feels those were not Arteta’s choices. The former Liverpool defender said on Sky Sports: “There’s a lot of nonsense around the club. I think some of the signings are a joke, in terms of br...

Jamie Carragher makes bold claim on Spurs duo…and baffled by what Arsenal star did
Former Liverpool defender turned popular football pundit, Jamie Carragher, has singled out Hector Bellerin for criticism following Arsenal’s 2-0 defeat against Tottenham in the Premier League clash on Sunday. Carragher feels that Mikel Arteta got horribly wrong with his tactics against Spurs in the north London derby, and that the Gunners were naive in their approach. Although Arsenal enjoyed the lion’s share of possession, they hardly troubled the Spurs back-line. They lacked penetration, while Spurs punished them on the counter. The Sky Sports pundit has praised Spurs duo – Harry Kane and Son Heung Min – claiming they are the ‘most dangerous combination in European football right now’. He has criticised Bellerin’s position during the game and the amount of space Arsenal left for the Spur...
