Carragher suggests Arsenal look at 10-man team as an example.

Sky Sports pundit Jamie Carragher has been left frustrated by Arsenal players. And fans blaming others for William Saliba’s red card in their 2-0 defeat to Bournemouth. Saying other teams have also played with 10 men but still struggled to handle their opponents. So it’s better to let them learn from their mistakes rather than be naughty.

The point of comparison that the ‘Gooners’ brought up was the timing of Saliba and Chelsea’s Tosin Adarabioyo in the 1-2 defeat to Liverpool. In which the ‘Blues’ defender was only shown a yellow card for a foul on Diogo Jota. UFABET 

There is also a rule explanation that the last player to commit a foul is immediately ejected. If there is no outfield teammate within 10 yards, so Case Tosin does not qualify. 

That’s why ‘Carra’ is teaching boxing to football fans singers and head coach Mikel Arteta. If you still play football like this. You should find a way to practice to beat your opponents when you have 10 players left.

He said during Monday Night Football.

“They deserved to do more in their last game, as a team that played very well defensively.”

“I’ll give an example of a champion team, Manchester City. Even with 10 men. They can still do more, right? They can still win games. But with Arsenal, if they have fewer players, they always lose points.” 

“A great team that wants to be the league champion must win even with 10 players.” 

“The Gunners’ biggest problem is not how many points they have dropped. But why they are getting so many red cards. It has to stop.”

“Because if you keep getting sent off, it will be difficult for you to chase goals from your opponents.” 

Since Mikel Arteta took charge of Arsenal in December 2019, players have been sent off in 17 league games, averaging 0.94 points per game. 

In the same period, Spurs have played 9 games with 10 men and have scored the most points among the ‘Big 6’ at 1.44 points-per-game. 

Followed by Man City, who have played 10 games and scored 1.33 points per game , and Liverpool, who have played 10 games and scored 1.33 points per game .
