Patrice Evra - Arsenal Is Like Watching Netflix, Always Waiting for the Next Season

I'm sorry guys, but you cannot say a player is great and then say the problem is that he does not know how to do the things required to win a modern football game and win trophies. That is a total contradiction. In modern football there is an understanding that you can create space in attack by your wingers stretching the width of the pitch and then still being an attacking threat. A team that wants to win competitions will play the player that can achieve this on the wing and this involves both skill and a good reading of the game both offensively and defensively. If you cannot do it, but others such as Foden and Saka can, then they are better wingers than you. The fact is Palmer could not do this and so was no good to Pep as a winger and to add to that, he is defensive liability with no interest and therefore no understanding of what he must do to contribute to his teams defensive challenges, becoming a weakness to a team trying to prevent goals. This was most evident in how he woke up to late in the England final to his defensive responsibility and within two passes of his negligence the ball was at the other end of the pitch and in the back of England's net. I give this example, because it is the easiest to point out, but he does this regularly resulting in goals against Chelsea. Times that win things do not accept defensive liabilities as they know they have to beat the best teams and they will exploit that liability. It is for these reasons that unlike Pep who sold him, the Chelsea manager has moved him to a central role. But although his central attacking position lessens his defensive liability, I still see this resulting in goals against Chelsea which is ok against weaker teams with weaker defenses who you can outscore, but the best teams not only exploit this liability, they also know how to stop Chelsea and more specifically Cole Palmer scoring. If you do the math, when a team can score against you because of a defensive liability and also know how to stop you scoring, you are going to lose, and that is why Chelsea lose against Liverpool, Arsenal and Man City, or against teams which do an efficient job of their low blocks as Chelsea and Palmer specifically struggles to deal with slow blocks because they deprive him of space which he struggles to deal with if it is not there while better players do not. Weak teams know after doing a successful low block, they can easily get a goal against Chelsea, making Chelsea's games against weak low blocking teams unpredictable where Chelsea one day score big against them and Palmer looks great and then the next day they lose with Palmer looking poor. So Pep sold Palmer for four reasons. Firstly, he is unable to produce an attack if required to stretch the width of the pitch as a winger, two he is a defensive liability where ever he plays in a modern game that requires all eleven players to contribute in offensively and defensively, three, he can be easily marked out of games by just one player which the best teams can execute as a team, and four, he struggles to play in crowded areas. players without these issues are better players for the objective of winning tournaments and beating the best teams, but he is great if you want to see some good goals and that instead is your objective. The worrying thing is while managers understand this, the media do not and so all they see is a great player with no interest in why the Pep, world's best manager, sold him knowing as he has said before that Palmer scores a lot of good goals. Why is this worrying? Well because they will push the England manager to play him with his liabilities until the manager get's tired of disagreeing with them resulting in another great opportunity to win a competition with an England team of great players, wasted. Southgate very smartly managed how used Palmer to protect the team from his weaknesses, but it was not enough as he switched off as expected and Spain scored. Great stuff. Peace and love

Joel goes on like arsenal have been winning trophies the guy is delusional I dread to think what he'll be like if they actually win something.

Osimhen içim geldim nerde Türkler amk

EVRA SPEAK!!!!!

This Patrice Evra was a troublemaker. Some bizarre antics with Suarez....

The moderator is so confused. Now I see why Arsenal are confused too. The fans follow exactly what Arsenal stand for. And coz they refuse to infuse new ways of doing things they can never win the league

God i love patris... he is bold, amaizing and very,very funny

Everytime i hear about Ferguson i think the closest manager in terms of management was Mourinho and the reason he failed its because those players are too sensible now

No one could get Odimhen on loam you dumb, Napoli just made that for Galatasaray who pays all his wages, what Premier League and PSG didn’t eant to do and not even paying Napoli his flause! You all must shut up ignoring things… Enough disgusting lies , fake rubbish and hates on Napoli and Galatasaray ; defending toxic ego and liar V.Osimhen; who are these animals to spit calumnials on other clubs, shame on them! 🤫🤬😡🤦🏽‍♂️🤌🏾 He is still a Napoli player and it’s not his business to spit fake lue calumnial hates! Who do he or they thing they are…

Joel is a joke, Arsenal really need a proper striker and u still didn't understand what Pat and Rio said, LOL

Wtf Evra man talk about passion 😅😅

Should do an interview with Martin Keown & Pat...

omg patrice is so true about football, no more ronaldinho etc.

Aggression, does not equal contact, that is why England will never win the World Cup until they understand this, it's a mentality. Busquets is an aggressive player as he looks to take the ball set Spain to attack mode, he'll never fight win a fight...

TBH I don't blame the managers at Man U, I just think they need to recruit with the mentality SAF did

No worries I am a little brother and I support Arsenal. Being a little brother, I didn't have the weight, height and power but I had the fight, it developed my competitive spirit...Pat is a legend much respect...

All United fans do is talking on tv and TikTok. Why are they so bad in coaching and good apparently analysis of games. Rubbish

EVRA = W

I am an Arsenal fan and Patrice is telling the truth. Joel does not know about football. We need to win now.

💛❤️ Galatasaray's strikers are Osimhen, Icardi and Batshuayi that's why we are the best 😘

Uncle Pat says "we never put vaseline"🤣🤣

At least he watches Arsenal. He said right here he doesn't even watch United. Legend in both ways

Love the storys about Sir Alex im in stiches

thanks ferdinand

Could listen to Evra all day. Joel is such a good presenter too. Asks great questions and keeps it ticking.

Soo Utd players admitting Sir Alex ..was tactically clueless !!!

Watching Manchester United is like watching Kevin Hart, always ready for the next JOKE.

They're jealous of Galatasaray 😂

Someone even suggested they take Christiano Ronaldo on a 6-month contract in 22/23 season when he left Man Utd. No league is coming to Arsenal until mentality changes.

This guy's mentality is the reason arsenal won't win the league, clearly Patrice is showing us how to win and he's still making excuses for arteta/arsenal. Buy a clinical striker and we win the league full stop!!

Ferguson wasn't a coach. He was an old school British manager. He would bring in coaches but he was a man manager chiefly who picked the team. As well as being in charge of a lot of things that modern head coaches don't get involved in. Or have limited involvement in. Things like scouting and transfers etc
The modern coach who's solely focusing on on - pitch concerns, specialising in coaching, motivating and picking the team is an import to the British game from the continent.
The British style gaffer has largely gone the way of the dodo at the elite level. Although success and circumstances meant Jurgen Klopp's role at Liverpool kind of became a throwback to that previous eras.
Probably the reason Darwin Nunez came to Liverpool.

Bruno wants to be the action hero in every game.

Mazraoui will always be a better 10 than Gary Neville. Come on, Rio.

Liverpool fan here who thinks Patrice Evra is real one. 😁

If arsenal are like watching netflix, then man u are like watching clowns at a circus 😂😂😂😂

Evra is so authentically himself, great panel also.

I miss patty. I wish he was still on the team.

I'm digging Craig David's channel

Uncle pats right being a utd fan feels like being in an abusive relationship. Mad money to watch on tv or stadium. Been saying for years if you docked those boys wages you would see a different attitude.

The real difference is in Fergies era there were real men,and not just posers and pu..ys.REAL Footbaling MEN.

Evra is pure jokes . Realist talker in football 😂😂😂

Is Evra still in high-school? You can't even watch your team and comment about Arsenal? The last few years you must have hurt your neck looking up the table to see where Arsenal is.

Evra be coach and let's see what happens stop your mouth

Too many Gen Z players 🤣Non would survive during Pat and Ferd's time under fergie

I love Evra man, just the guys energy. Can absolutely hear the passion when he talks and then he'll have you cracking up in the next few seconds. Looks like he could still do a job at LB for us 😂

Please Mr Ferdinand be wearing clothes.

Thank you the whole world is playing like guardiola
