Now you've gone to far

Ayew is the classic player who your mate will say "it's his work off the ball that's so important and goes unnoticed" and you won't really know what he means.

Clearly puts in a shift but his end product is woeful and, given our lack of recent goals, we can't really afford to accomodate a defensive player in our front three.

The only argument for his continued status as a starter is to mask our deficiencies on the right side but I would hope that now we have McArthur and Kouyate back in midfield presumably playing alongside Gallagher, all of whom can tackle, that would be enough to negate the need for him to start.

We were somewhere around Barstow, on the edge of the desert, when the drugs began to take hold...

I think Ayew will start tonight and play we will with Zaha up front as in the away fixture at City.
They dominate possession and try to create overloads down the sides and then find the avalanche of midfield players flooding the box.
It's very difficult to defend against for a whole game with the incessant pressure.
Ayew may be needed for a game like this.
I hope its not at the expense of Olise who could take a similar more central role as against Chelsea.

That is possible the biggest reason they are so difficult to play against. They have no Aguero who scores half or at least a third of their goals but there is about four or five midfielders who are in double figures.
