Live Bar January 17 News Originally scheduled for January 17 Beijing time, the Premier League North London derby was postponed due to Arsenal's lack of personnel. On Sky Sports' show, commentators Richards and Sonnes expressed their opinions on it.
"I think what Arsenal are doing is what other clubs do, although they have some responsibilities themselves because they rented out two players last week (Niles and Barogon), but if the other clubs are short of people then they will also apply for an extension. ”
'It could even backfire for them because the make-up will come one day and then they may have other injuries.
Richards agreed with Sonnes, who said the gunman was always subject to some unfair criticism: "Whenever Arsenal is mentioned, it feels like everyone wants to step on it. They're in good shape right now, they've just applied for an extension in accordance with the rules of the Premier League. They think they're missing enough first-team players and I can understand the frustration people are about delaying the game, but Arsenal haven't done anything wrong. ”
"Honestly, other clubs will do the same, not just Arsenal. Postponing a match would of course have an impact on the integrity of the schedule, but if you don't have enough first-team players, you'll have to apply for an extension, and if any team says they won't do it, it's lying. ”
