Tierney all day, Kiwior makes me too nervous.

tids81.bsky.social•100 days ago

Shouldn’t ever play Kiwior again. Tierney in

dgerow.bsky.social•100 days ago

Kiwior.

nocturnalgunner.bsky.social•99 days ago

Interesting I said KT 🤔 It would free Kiwi up to actually play in his correct position

shamsdale.bsky.social•99 days ago

Think I’d play Kiwior as well tbh. I just don’t know if Tierney is up to the level we’re at right now, I need to see him in the shirt a few times before I can be confident in him

thearsenalrealist.bsky.social•99 days ago

Tierney! Mainly just because I loved him when he first signed, not convinced he’s right for us now but my heart says try him

theguymarcus.bsky.social•100 days ago

Thats even easier, KT all day 🙏

Horses for courses. There are matches ahead that would suit each one better. Don't think there's a one size fits all solution

Kt3. Kiwior’s pace always makes me nervous out wide

But you’d need to invert the Rb instead of Lb to lean into Tierneys skill set

mikeherz.bsky.social•100 days ago

Kiwior and for the first one I would play Partey RB.

dvaleris.bsky.social•99 days ago

Kiwior, but he'd need two defensive-minded midfielders in front of him willing to track back and cover on the left when he inevitably gets caught out after attempting to overlap for his winger

dvaleris.bsky.social•99 days ago

I mean, I love Tierney but he can't stay fit and I feel like he's too static for the role Arteta wants our wingbacks to play (tho maybe I'm just misremembering because it's been So Long since I've actually seen him play for us.)

shamsdale.bsky.social•99 days ago

Yeah, for me it comes to the fact that we haven’t seen Tierney in an Arsenal shirt for so long that I don’t know if he’s capable at the level we’re at now. At least with Kiwior, we know what we’re getting and he strikes me as someone who needs a run of games.

dvaleris.bsky.social•99 days ago

Agreed on both points, but especially the last. Tierney is just too unpredictable for us, whereas whenever Kiwior gets a run of games, you can actually see that he's improving, albeit incrementally.
