Yeah, a lot of Arsenal fans don’t seem to like him or understand why he plays, which shows the level of tactical understanding from the average fan quite well. He keeps possession well, and is capable under pressure and in tight areas. Rice on the other hand is simply not as good at those things so having Jorginho there as one of the pivots is essential (especially with Partey out)
I’m a pretty average fan but i’ve tried recently to put my focus away from the ball and on a specific player for a while when im watching games, and im realising how much more there is to it than just what’s being done with the ball.
I think that’s why alot of fans don’t understand his quality. Most fans focus on big moments like goals and don’t notice what a strong midfield provides because its easy to miss if you’re not actively focusing on it. I don’t fully understand it myself but i’m learning because i’m starting to notice more things besides goals.
