These are things that go along with what Craig was saying.

Go on and play.

Play your game, but play the game within the structure of a group, within the structure of what makes this team successful, and Kylian Mbappe and Vini Junior playing together and actually utilizing each other makes this team better.

And I think that is the headline for me if I'm Arsenal.

And anybody that follows this team,

When we were previewing this match, the conversation, well, what is Arteta going to do?

Is he going to rotate the team because, well, you know, it's Manchester United over the weekend and it's far more important, that match, because of the Premier League and that...

their status would not have changed in Champions League because they have been perfect up until this point.

Well, he says, you know, I'll rotate my team, and it really doesn't matter.

It's depth.

Squad depth is something Craig just mentioned, something you just mentioned, and it is one thing to say that you have it.

It's another thing to use it and to use it in a productive manner and an efficient manner.

And I think Miguel Arteta started Gabriel Jesus today with the idea that Jokeres will start on the weekend.

But then you see a performance and you kind of go,

Well, I can also change my mind because the players that I'm putting out there in this part of squad dev are actually showing me that they can be better than the options that I was thinking for this specific weekend.

And that is a great place to be as a manager.

That is the most wonderful problem to have where your decisions are made difficult because of those players that are getting opportunities are doing well with those opportunities.

And those that have been starting are doing well when they start.

It's a great place to be.

Now it's up to the manager to not overthink it and actually make the choices that he needs to make in order to put this team in the best positions to win games.
