Two is sufficient, assuming our assistant coach in charge of clean sheets returns from injury (or Bahrain?) soon.

I suspect it was timing that upset the manager. Schoolboy stuff
We've gone into the last 20 minutes of matches against City, Chelsea and Liverpool a goal up. And haven't won any of them. Mitigating circumstances in all three to some extent but even so.... annoying.

I do shudder every time I see 'pundits' and other assorted arseholes whine on and on about who we should have signed and when without any context, most particularly how much these assorted fanny dancers and goal-shy layabouts would have actually cost. We are not made of money and like most of the league we are bound by a set of rules about spending.

That said, I wonder if Arteta is beginning to wonder whether he might have been better off keeping Reiss Nelson than bringing in Sterling. I guess he isnt setting the world alight in training so far
