"Nwaneri showed he belongs" - Brentford 1-3 Arsenal | On the Whistle

We always score more with Partey at 6

Love your analysis but while it was a pretty goal, I think had Martinelli missed it would've been regarded as a sitter

Happy New Year James! Great analysis

Honestly, the most promising element of Nwaneri today was that I don't think he was at his best throughout but STILL put in a strong performance. Felt he drifted out of the game a bit for stretches and doesn't have great connections with Odegaard and Timber yet, but when he was active and involved, he's tough to play. Great technique, aggressive, and very two-footed for his age.

Goodly New Year James. Hope you have a splendid 2025

Happy New Year James & a satisfying result in the end

The take on partey for the first goal is absolutely ridiculous. Gunnerblog we expect better. Partey was clear Motm. Ran that midfield

Can he play every single week? WHY NOT?

Wonder if Chido-Obi Martin is feeling some regret right now. He went from one of the world’s most promising youngsters to wasting away at United meanwhile Ethan & Miles are killing it in the league

If Nwaneri can push for starts in that midfield, it will save the Gunners $70MM which they can invest in a striker.

Happy New Year James, amazing result away!!!

James thank you so much for the balanced sensible views of our games, no toxicity and lunatic opinions like many others 😉

James The first goal had Nothing to do with Partey. "Partey jogging" 😂 That was definitely on Calafiori not defendong correctly. You sounds like abit of a hater. You can't hide it. We all know you love declan rice but he is not better than Partey. The team perform better when Partey plays the 6 and we score more goals. Its a fact. Get over it. He was MOTM today! Immense!

Great report! Lovely win! Happy New Year, James! 🙂

Happy New Year James 🎉 Lez do this!❤

Nwaneri needs minutes so he can develop I want to see the same front three on Saturday. Keep those in form goal scoring players in the team

Biggest question from me after the game is does Saka get back into this team when he returns from injury, he's really going to have to earn his place back!

Where is tomiyasu?

Partey and Martinelli were best players on the pirch today imo

Happy new year old chap

James seems like you've gone and triggered the pro-Partey pre-menstrual brigade.

I think Partey was yet again one of our very best players. I don't get the trend to leave him out.

Partey > Rice ….for the Moment

Happy New Year, Mr. McN. Let’s do dis.

Thank you for the videos output while being a great dad to Rocky. I look forward to you doing these analysis from outside of a kids birthday Partey....😂

Concerned over Calafiori’s form. He reminded me of Zinny today. Hope he recovers and shows his true class.

Finally a really good performance. Please keep Nwaneri on the right and Lewis Skelly at lb. The other players have to prove they can take their place by being better than them, whicht atm they arent.

January transfers we need top players in.

Andrew's 7.5 for Partey was ludicrous....take it up with him. He drove us on today.

I think Ethan struggled with his positioning. Unfortunately for a 17 year old it won't be overnight but once he clicks with he teammates, we've got an absolute beast of a player on our hands.

Nwaneri is pronounced with a silent N.

🔴 The agenda against Partey is real and was confirmed by those comments by James! This is why some journalists are dangeorus because they will push their own agenda and dislike with zero foundation. Supposed to report on what you see, not what you dont like. I think its CLEAR who the best player on the pitch was but its not being reported accurately. Anyone who didnt watch the game and listened to this review, would think Thomas had a poor game. When actually he was arguably MOTM. Outstanding performance. Very disappointed in Jame's, i like him as a journalist but this is very poor. He needs to do better!

For the algorithm

Happy new year

Martinelli showed how dangerous he can be if we play a fast counter attacking style and not slow ponderous build up.

Goodly New Year, James!

Happy new year James and all your viewers!

The only difference between Brentford and Ipswich performances: luck.

Against Ipswich, we didn't have the luck on a couple of big moments, and had the breaks gone our way then, we'd have won 3-0 or more.

Against Brentford, we got the breaks. Raya corrected his own mistake. Balls kept bouncing in the Brentford box and ended up with one of our players scoring a goal off a couple of those moments. Brentford could have gone 2-0 up when Raya bobbled his party but luck was with us.

Happy new year James! .. btw the N is silent in Nwaneri’s name. Cheers 🥂

really proud of the team after that kne

Uncle Thomas is back

Thanks again James. Happy New Year to you and yours.

Happy New Year, James 🎉🎉

Setting - not as accomplished corner as Arsenal's, clutter on shelf 6/10 bonus point 1/10 tbf setting is 1 bed flat, this was one of the more passable; extra bonus point - world's smallest xmas tree managed to house a cracker; point deduction - what on God's earth is a NYD jog??

I just wish Arteta could find someone else to play at RB(Merino or Rice) and leave Partey in the middle.

Recently watched Ted Lasso and there you were

I think you are too harsh on Partey 😢
