arseblog.com/2021/11/aubamey… This week's column is about Pierre Emerick Aubameyang. To what extent is he a victim and a cause of Arsenal's lack of creativity? I plunged into the data to see whether it supported my impression that he is more victim than cause.

Bernardo Silva is an integral part of Pep Guardiola's Man City side. Since joining in 2017-18, he's played more games than any other player for the club (218). But what makes him so special? @AaronBartonUK explains. ⬇️ #MCFC @ManCity @BernardoCSilva ⬇️ theanalyst.com/eu/2021/11/be…

PSG tricked us into thinking they had changed - but that didn't last long. Neymar, Messi and Mbappe offered nothing without possession, and #PSG's shape had collapsed by half-time. #MCFC switching play and being patient helped them make PSG pay. 🖊 @Zonal_Marking

Maybe PSG will be happy for Pochettino to leave mid-season after all. Need to win games like these to be CL winners #MCIPSG
Can anyone explain to me what position is Cancelo supposed to be playing? He is like a closet-Pirlo these days. Unbelievable distribution into danger areas #MCIPSG
If Pochettino can beat Man City today - #MUFC may write him a blank cheque in the morning #MCIPAR

Pochettino would want to leave PSG mid-season for #MUFC because...? He has a team here that can win the Champions League #MCIPAR
Luis Enrique won’t be involved in any talk with Manchester United. He’s only planning for the World Cup with Spain and he’s not gonna change his mind. 🇪🇸 #MUFC Sevilla manager Jules Lopetegui also denied Man Utd job chance: “It seems absurd to me”. #Sevilla

A reminder that being Manchester United manager is tough: more managers have won the league with Sunderland than United.

Liverpool breaking sweat against Arsenal at Anfield for the first time in a while #LIVARS
Crazy to think that Arsenal are going to be fifth in the league no matter what the result #LIVARS

If Ole survives this #WATMUN defeat then #MUFC cannot be saved and are destined to a similar wilderness like Arsenal and Liverpool post Daglish
Blows my mind why #MUFC went back to the 4-2-3-1 formation after 3-5-2 worked against Spurs, surely stick with it longer #WATMUN

How long with Ronaldo last at #MUFC if this team is not able to qualify for the Champions League next season? #WATMUN
Is Maguire making all these mistakes because he is terrible or because the midfield keep letting players through all the time? #WATMUN
