    Of midfield.

    If it starts to work Arteta has to respond quickly. We are already struggling there a bit.

    I wanted to ask you earlier; why did they decide punching was better than catching, what's the advantage.
    "Plenty of strikers can score goals," he said, gesturing to the famous old stands casting shadows around us.

    "But a lot have found it difficult wearing the number 9 shirt for The Arsenal."

        Failure to catch was considered poor goalkeeping, back in the day.

          I think they feel that the lighter ball makes catching a bit risky. In the same way a tennis ball is almost harder to catch than a cricket ball.
