If you’re fighting for the maintenance of cash, especially within the major cities, you’re fighting a losing battle. Indonesians want to keep their cash bc they think it has value when it’s the CURRENCY THAT HAS VALUE

If you want to bash out on people who think going cashless is legal, you’re being stupid & misinformed. Everyone, including companies, have the right to accept payments however they like. Just bc Indonesians love cash so much doesn’t mean companies have to follow them

Indonesians on here are hyping up how cash is currency and therefore must be accepted everywhere yet they’re too stupid to understand how cash is literally impossible for online merchants. Do Vidio, Shopee, or Tokped suddenly have to forcibly accept cash now too?

The whole cashless principle is legal and Indonesians need to realise that first before making audacious claims of illegality from companies. You need to make cash mandatory (which it isn’t) for companies to be forced to accept them. Otherwise, you’re complaining about nothing

Underperformed xG brings a bit of good news. Arsenal have been making clinical chances, but they could only score from a penalty. Given time, Arsenal will eventually meet the xG and score plenty

Arsenal fans have gotten so used to Eze at 10 that they also want Ødegaard to be the 10. That can’t & won’t happen. Ødegaard is an 8, Arsenal’s Bernardo Silva. Eze & Saka on the wings are their KDB

Raya, Saliba, Rice, Saka. That’s your spine. Have all of them at their A-game and you’ll have no chance of beating Arsenal. Everton tried so hard tonight, even nearly did well with their high man-to-man press. But with those four at their A-game, Arsenal were unstoppable

That was too tense for an ending. Control was exerted enough times in the second half, and in the end, Arsenal did get all three points. But the margins were still too small. We were fortunate our key players were at their A-game. Against Palace, we cannot afford such tension

The only reason why Arteta hasn’t made more changes is bc it’s still 1-0. The margins are still too fine to change the balance of the team. That’s why getting a second goal would’ve been so important bc you can make more subs earlier, leading to more managed minutes

I’m starting to have my icks with Hincapie. Does well with clearances, is decent at 1v1, but he can be slow in possession & he still hasn’t really clicked with his positioning during buildup. I’m also worried that as he plays more, the more easily he’s being found out

Arsenal need to calm the game down & silence the crowd. They got two penalty scares now. Enough is enough. Establish control and see this game out through your goals

Two errors from defenders over the past 5 minutes. Had Everton gotten a penalty, I wouldn’t have blamed Zubi bc the error forced him to cover. This is a good example of Arsenal failing to maintain the levels despite being a goal up

Move Grealish to RW, isolate him in 1v1 against either Calafiori or Hincapie, and have runners off of him. That way, Everton can have a chance at Arsenal’s goal. Otherwise, enjoy witnessing the Arsenal control machine for another 45 minutes

Saliba is so good that it’s scary how composed and clinical he is whenever he plays. The read, tackles, positioning. It’s second to none in the PL atm. If Everton want any luck, they should target Arsenal’s LHS instead

Arsenal’s focus should be to get a second goal before half time. Kill any hope for an Everton comeback bc they’re facing a formidable force. Leave it at 1-0 and you keep some hope and you haven’t been good at keeping 1-0 leads. It’s not a risk worth taking

Arsenal should keep their intensity, especially since they often have their levels dropped after going ahead so far this season. Keep the press, maintain composure in possession, maintain positional discipline, and find the spaces smartly. The second goal will naturally come

Another needless defensive error from the day as Jake O’Brien does his best VVD impression. Defenders will claim that it should be counted as part of a natural jumping movement, but the rarity in the foul’s nature should tell you how unnatural the handball is

John Brooks didn’t handle the game well. Leaned quite a few 50/50 challenges to Liverpool, missed out on key rough challenges, refused to gave explanations to any of the players, and consistently fished up emotions from all the players. Seemed poor for a big game ref performance

Jesus, what is wrong with Romero? The petulance has got to stop, especially when it comes from your captain. You’ve just caused your team to go down to 9, reducing their chances of any comeback. Spurs fans cannot bring Romero into world class-level conversations anymore

Liverpool are panicking. Conceding was a huge error on their part and it’s leaving them vulnerable to a Spurs comeback. If they come out of this game with a win, it’ll primarily be down to Konate and Alisson playing well enough in defence

This might be interesting. Spurs have their goal that will become their springboard. Liverpool have been known to be vulnerable after conceding, and even with 10, Spurs have a chance to come back here

Good lineup, but the lack of defensive cover worries me. Didn’t realise how dire the situation is until the lineup shows. Definitely a priority for January’s transfers www.arsenal.com/news/team-ne...

I was hoping Kudus to have another attacking action before being subbed, but in the end, it’s very justified. He frankly hasn’t provided any meaningful contribution while also slowing down Spurs’ attacking momentums

It’s almost textbook scripted that Spurs shoot themselves in the foot. Romero had no instruction nor need to force a forward pass. With 10 men, there’s no balance to play that ball in case of defensive transitions. Hence, it’s a risk that’s costed the team

The crazy thing is that after the announcement & seeing the replay, every Spurs fan in the stadium moaned at the referee as if they believe the red card was a bad decision. Yet any neutral can tell you it’s a clear red card at slow-mo & real time

Chelsea showed you don’t need to put an extra defender on to secure a point. As long as you’re disciplined enough to overload the right areas & have the mental resilience to defend for 60+ minutes, you can get result. Spurs need to do that right now

It was unnecessary from Xavi Simons to tackle VVD. A pressure was enough, the tackle was very unnecessary. Spurs now have to play like Chelsea did against Arsenal or they’ll face another beating at the hands of Liverpool again

Neither of Spurs or Liverpool are asserting themselves in this game so far. Pressure has been tight but gradual, and neither have had really good chances

Haaland is an all-timer. We are witnessing a the best clinical striker itw, no one goes above him. If he stays at City till he retires, he’ll for sure surpass Shearer’s record by quite some margin

People don’t know this, but companies aren’t actually obliged to accept cash for their transactions, even if cash is the OG tender. This is the everywhere including Indonesia. If they were, then online stores are forced to somehow accept cash, which causes operational backlogs

West Ham don’t have any outlet on the RHS. They can’t stretch City enough bc they’re so reliant on the LHS that when the switch is made, there’s no one to meet it. Take one of the midfielders off and bring on a RW. Simple change to start solving your issues

West Ham really have nothing to show for themselves. Halfway through the first half and the only reason they haven’t conceded more is bc City are toying with them. Once they do attack, there’s just no structure/incentive to make forward passes.

I’m quietly impressed at Miley’s growing adaptation in this Newcastle side. He’s gone a lot more physical & his RB cameo today was decent. The more he learns to keep his 1v1s in check, the better he’ll be at RB

Biased fans will say the PGMOL have failed Newcastle. Real analysts can see that Newcastle simply didn’t play with the same pressing intensity nor urgency, which led to Chelsea coming back to 2-2. Afterwards, Newcastle couldn’t finish off their chances quick enough

Wissa doesn’t work well as a long striker. He needs another attacker to feed to & from. Hence, I don’t think Howe made the right call to change all 3 of his attackers. It would’ve been better to bring on both Wissa & Willock simultaneously so there’s some dual interplay up top

You just feel this game has some last-minute drama in store. A defensive mistake or individual brilliance that becomes key to the winner for either side.

Basketball in the last 10 minutes. Newcastle & Chelsea are running out of steam. They’re making each other flash transitions bc each are leaving such big gaps to exploit. Hard to analyse bc neither team are exerting control

I don’t think bodychecking should be given as fouls, let alone penalties, no matter how hard they are. But if your argument is about attempting to play the ball, then bodychecking will need to be foul calls wherever they are, making the game softer & more stop-start

What is up with Newcastle and facing post-conceding game states? They’re just can’t find their way against teams who are on the up. They lose control and cannot get it back. It’s less coaching & more about mental resilience, and it’s currently missing within Newcastle’s squad

Newcastle are losing their grip on this game. They’re not isolating Chelsea’s back 4 anymore, which means they need Gordon & Murphy to deliver excellent crosses, which haven’t happened in the second half. Overall, this makes Chelsea grow into the game much easier

What Gordon is doing LW this first half I need Eze to do the same against Everton later today. He’s the only one who can create those crosses that are perfect for Gyökeres. You then just need to disallow Ødegaard from being so RHS-heavy

When Chelsea attack, they bring numbers forward. When Chelsea defend deep, they have numbers back. But in between, there is nothing, and that’s where Newcastle have the upper hand

Why is semi-automated offside not available for the Newcastle-Chelsea game? The VAR relying on Hawkeye is very bad as the decision takes too long & is knowingly unreliable. It’s frankly a failure that English football isn’t embracing with technology as quickly as they should

Chelsea aren’t controlling this game like how Arsenal did in their visit to SJP. They’re succumbing to Newcastle pressure badly, relying too much on an overloaded midfield pivot that’s detached from the attackers

Miley is still looking slow in 1v1s, mainly in recognising when the winger starts to lose their close control over the ball. Fortunately, he has Garnacho there for now, which makes his adaptation somewhat easier

Lewis Hall will have a hard time if he keeps getting isolated against Neto. Hall won’t win the foot race and bc Newcastle defend high, he’ll need help on that side. Fortunately, Tonali recognised that issue quick

Newcastle will always have the upper hand against Chelsea at SJP. They’re one of the best teams at catching out slow play & turning transitions lethal. Meanwhile, in pressure games like these, Chelsea will often struggle. That’s why Chelsea are behind & will struggle to come back

After Kluivert, Timnas doesn’t need a step up from STY nor towards becoming an elite-level side. Kluivert exposed Timnas’ deficiencies, especially in away games. However, I also don’t think a rebuild roadmap was needed nor will it be useful,-

There is no Dutch connection within Timnas. It is only coincidence that most of the naturalised players are of Dutch heritage. Therefore, there is no reason for PSSI to hire a coach just because they can speak Dutch or prefer a Dutch footballing style

In the next two years, PSSI cannot rely on John Herdman to become Indonesia’s U23 coach. It’s a waste of time & resources. Like any elite-level academy, you need a separate development coach for that age group whose philosophy closely aligns with the senior team. Hence,-
