I think the Arteta criticism re. Leno is a bit off. Although I agree Martinez was undroppable after his stint, I'm sure there would have been significant input from the goalkeeper coach/ es.

Well Martinez kept 17 clean sheets this season ( so far ) so someone at Arsenal got it VERY wrong didn’t they?

If only the Martinez mistake was our biggest problem!

Yes it was a mistake but given how much is wrong at the club it was far from a crucial mistake.

Slightly disagree mate, I played in a back four at a good level if you have a keeper that doesn’t fill you with confidence it makes you vulnerable and disorganised. The spine of the team is crucial to the strength of the XI on field . Leno has been appalling end of .

His ball distribution, he doesn’t dominate in the box, he punches the majority of the time . Matt Ryan caught more balls in 90 minutes than Leno had the previous 10 games.

Leno has undoubtedly had a poor season mate and i am not looking ti excuse his form but equally he's never had a settled CB paring or even FB pairing to work with and build any kind of understanding with.

Partey and Gabriel have struggled too but in a settled side they would stand more chance of adapting to premier league life and into a new club.

Chopping and changing doesn't help you build anything.

I must admit I get nervous these days when Leno's goal is threatened. His confidence seems to have dipped since the injury and he seems more hesitant somehow.

Yep fair point 62, agree with that also.
