He was chosen to change the course of the game, but he failed to do so.
According to a report by British media outlet TalkSPORT on the 1st (KST), Sky Sports' soccer pundit Jamie Redknapp pointed out on air that "when you look at Takehiro Tomiyasu (25), you don't know what he's trying to do." He continued, "He tried to make a change in the second half.
"Tomiyasu tried to make a change in the second half, moving forward into the middle of the park. But he was just a distraction for the team."
Arsenal had earlier come from behind to lose 1-2 against Fulham in the 20th round of the 2023/2024 English Premier League at Craven Cottage in London, England.
Recent form hasn't been good. Arsenal have fallen into a slump with one draw and two losses in their last three league games. They've squandered their chances of picking up points and dropped to fourth place in the standings.
There are no signs of a turnaround. They played inefficient soccer against Fulham, registering just three shots on target despite maintaining a high 60.5% possession.
Arteta's mercenary tactics also failed. Tomiyasu, Leandro Trosar, and Gabriel Jesus, who came on as second-half substitutes, failed to make any impact on the game.카지노사이트777
Tomiyas was not immune to criticism. Tomiyas was active on the left and right flanks and in the midfield, but he didn't really do much.
The pundits felt the same way. Jamie Redknapp said: "Everything Arsenal tried failed. They took off Kivio at the start of the second half and brought on Tomiyas and it didn't work," said Jamie Redknapp.
"Tomiyas didn't help Arsenal expand their radius at all. He often had chances to create 2-on-1 situations, but Bobby Reid kept him in check. Tomiyas couldn't find a breakthrough and didn't help the team."
Arsenal's feet are out from under them. They are now just one point behind fifth-place Tottenham. They need a win in the 21st round of the league against Crystal Palace on October 20th.
Redknapp said: "Arsenal are not sparkling at all. Arsenal's performance against Fulham was disappointing, and they're not going to get anything at this rate," Redknapp warned.
