Nothing wrong with that if you have scored 4 yourself , not if you're the 4th striker in the ranks who is supposed to convince people that he should start. He should have scored or at least try to score in those occasions rather than pass

And yes, you will say he knows he won't start and will be the 4th and has accepted his role, but that's the problem. If a player has lost motivation to be the best at what he does and has fallen into comfort zone , you can't magically expect him to get out of it when you play At Madrid in a key CL match. Sanchez for example never accepted being a 4th option and you could see the motivation to show people wrong every time he played, diff story that his physique was no longer there.

Arna is a good lad , probably contributes a lot to the atmosphere in the locker room , he is also very technical/flashy but that's it.
I would never feel confident to get a win if he is the one starting in any match of ours
He shouldn't convince anyone as he is 4th choice and he knows it. He is also motivated enough, judging by his performance.
It's ridiculous to bash him like that because of his decision to pass the ball. Thuram also had the same opportunity, where he decided to shoot instead to pass to Mkhitaryan.
I'm pretty sure that if Arna took a shot, and he missed, now the same people would criticize him again, why he didn't pass instead.

I thought it was a good sign he was trying to help Taremi get off the mark. It shows he is team first which is important for a 4th striker. It shows he knows his role in the team is to help the others perform better. He’s putting the team first.

So is this dude dead, or did he actually get passed by Correa in the pecking order?

I just figured he was being rested for Tues since JC isn't on our CL list.

Welcome Marko. Be our new Ibra without the attitude.
This is made me chuckle.

He clearly is not up to standard but i respect how hard he tries

Except for some of his bad dribbles and bad passes, I think he looked pretty good. Involved, ran his ass off, saved us from conceding, a few of the quick passes were just right,..

Seeing how our main attacking duo need to rest, Arna starting against Young Boys is fine by me.

Simone should show Arnautovic's effort put in this game to Correa. Small chance it will do any good but you gotta try everything.
