think he's a good player. matched

I'm not sure he's uh well, I don't think he's he's a he's above that. matched

Yeah, they're brilliant. matched

I mean, obviously clearly they get a lot of help from who's in front of them. matched

But I just think Arsenal as a defensive unit are so solid. matched

Uh and when you do get through the midfield, you've got that four who work so well together and a brilliant goalkeeper to add it up. matched

So there's a reason why they're the best. matched

They probably the b well, they are probably the best in world football. matched

So that gives you a great start to work from. matched

And then when you've got their forward players, so yeah, they're they they just work so well together. matched

They're so tight. matched

Will probably be higher up the pitch. matched

I think one of the reasons you do that is because you're not getting any joy with your back to them and you're thinking I have to try a different way because they're actually winning, they're beating me at what I'm trying to do. matched

I love to go up against and try and fight and scrap, and obviously he can do that, but he's not brilliant at it. matched

He's brilliant at getting the ball on the half turn and trying to tempt you out. matched

But the reason you go searching for the ball. matched

goal and you go deeper is that you're not getting anything from the back four anyway. matched

So you'd have to try something different. matched

And clearly that's the first part of their job done defensively when they see they'd rather see him 40, 50 yards from goal and in and around the box. matched

So if he the deeper he goes, the more on top that back four is. matched
