Was a nothing game for best part of 30 mins then 2 goals in a minute. Havertz having another half to forget missed a glorious chance early on then passed to Eriksen who set Rashford away, but I think Ramsdale should have saved the shot. Straight form kick off Arsenal back up the other end and a great finish from Odegaard.

It's simple: if I add a striker to my team the goals dry up, while if I add a defender or GK to my team they won't be getting many clean sheets

I'm reasonably sure I'm personally responsible for Andrew Robertson falling off a cliff last season

<laugh> well that explains everything. I have never seen fantasy football and I have no idea what it is.

And I don't really want to know so don't waste your time explaining it.

Arseanal don't look as good as last year. Why would you buy Havertz? What does he do?

I think that Havertz would be good as either a second striker or in Dele Alli's old role.
That basically requires a system that virtually nobody plays any more, though.
Playing him and Odor-guard together pushes one of them our of position, in my opinion.

I think that you need a central midfield playmaker to get the best out of him.
There aren't many around and they seem to have gone out of fashion.

So really a strange decision to buy him.

I would've thought Havertz as a No10 with a pair of pacey wingers who cut inside and score would have made perfect sense, much like Dortmund used Reus for a few seasons

Instead he plays in the midfield 3, and that makes as much sense as Chelsea's transfer strategy

Is Havertz playing? Must have missed that

There's a few teams recently playing two attacking midfielders and a holding player in a 3.
I think that this is their attempt at doing that.

Leaves Rice with a lot of work, in my opinion, but he's done it fine today.
Probably helped by Utd going with a similar system and making odd choices.
Eriksen isn't a central midfielder and both Anthony and Martial are a bit ****.
