Yeah this is beyond bizarre right now. Could be that Arteta is really hellbent on the keeper playing one way even if it's extremely high risk. That said you have to have a keeper who is pretty much really really on top of it to do so, I just don't see it in Raya just yet. I think I'd much prefer a keeper who can adapt to the dynamics to the game rather than sticking to the plan even if it's not going that way.
Worried about this game. We haven't been great away in Europe under Arteta, hopefully we have more fortune in the UCL than we did in the EL. Sevilla's European record speaks for itself too.
Jesus and Odegaard need to be benched. I'd start Nkeitah at striker for hold up play. Partey at the 6 if he is available, if not Rice at the 6. Havertz at the 8 and ESR at the 10. Tomiyasu would be in for Zinchenko. The rest of the back line stays the same.
