And that doesn't work because then we're lacking players.

serious creativity.

And then, okay, I want both my wingers to play both sides, but this is a 19-year-old who's just signed for the club.

And Olivia Smith, who still hasn't had a full, full run at Arsenal to be able to find her feet and say, this is my role.

And again, this is Olivia Smith's season.

We spoke about that on the preview pod.

It felt like this was her breakout season, but she's kind of being thrust around a little bit based on form.

I think a lot of the Lisa Baum and Olivia Smith thing comes from

Rene doesn't really trust Ford or Kelly right now either.

And obviously Kelly didn't have a preseason, but those two players aren't players that are coming on and impacting the game.

And you can see when the manager doesn't trust players.

It's the same for someone like Freda Mornum, who's not even being included in the match day squad.

I just think it's frustrating as a fan to see this rotating lineup because it's giving me genuine flashbacks from the end of the Gona side of Altenia.

And I hate when Arsenal go out and look like they don't have a footballing identity.

So that's frustrating.

In terms of the wingers, I think that it's a bit silly to be rotating as much as we are.

Like I said, I think you've got two young wingers that still don't know their role at Arsenal.

I understand doing it against a low block because you want to be able to have some sort of like –

creativity and difference in how you're approaching the low block whether lisa bomb's coming in on a on a right foot or whether olivia smith's doing the same they can invert and they can come down the wings i get that but right now tim i just think it's too soon in the starting 11 i they don't have a role and it's frustrating it's it's really frustrating

Yeah, it does feel a little bit like this was look to your bench and you think of who the best players to come on at that time are, which I think is probably a good thing in comparison to what I was complaining about last week in terms of there's rehearsal and there's pre-planned subs.
