Gary Lineker

You cannot ignore the evidence of your eyes, I would say.

It's been a lot of chat this season, hasn't it?

We've been involved in it about Arsenal and their style of football, but let's flip it a little bit here.

They're the first team in the Premier League to reach 100 goals in all competitions.

So maybe some of that criticism is a little bit undeserved.

I think we've defended them pretty much for most of the time.

And some of it obviously comes from their own fans.

You see these things like Arsenal TV and all that where he's all true.

I mean, I know it's clickbait nonsense and they get people ranting for no good reason, but I do find it absurd.

I mean, you can...

You know, we've done it ourselves.

We forensically look at some performances and we evaluate where their strengths are and their weaknesses.

And, you know, you can point things out in certain games.

But that record this season, it's extraordinary.

Of course it always has been.

Speaking of Manchester City, sorry Al.

It's interesting, isn't it, when you look at City at the moment, obviously they're playing this sort of new system, box in midfield and then kind of two up top.

And we talked in the previous episodes about Haaland within that role has to change.

But does that suit Marmouch more than it perhaps suits Erling?

Perhaps Erling's the only one in this system that doesn't get the best out of it.
