He annoys me so much, he shouldn’t be allowed into the dressing room, let him pack his bags and leave”- Ian Wright was spotted shouting and yelling at Arsenal’s player after his disaster performance against Everton

Ian Wright’s emotional outburst following Arsenal’s recent defeat against Everton has sparked a lot of debate in the football world. In the heat of battle, Wright lashed out at one of Arsenal’s players for being marginally offside during the game. While his emotional reaction as a former Arsenal striker and football pundit is understandable, it’s worth considering if his criticism was reasonable or overly harsh.

The incident in question concerned Arsenal’s number nine, Eddie Nketiah, who was caught offside during the game. Wright expressed his anger on Premier League Productions’ post-match show, underlining that players should be mindful of the margins and fight to stay onside.

It’s worth noting that offside judgments in football are frequently close calls, and in this case, the margin was indeed narrow. Some contend that Nketiah did not receive a pass on purpose and instead profited from a deflection off his teammate, making it a fairly fortunate position. To the naked eye, it may not have appeared to be a clear offside, which calls Wright’s argument into question.

However, it is critical to analyze the problem in its entirety. The Premier League stated before the season that they would not be indulgent with offside calls, especially for minor offences. In this setting, all players, including Nketiah, should have known the regulations and accepted the duty of remaining onside. Football is a game of thin margins, and these decisions can have a significant impact on the flow and outcome of a game.

While Wright’s dissatisfaction may have appeared harsh to some, it’s vital to remember that his words are motivated by his love for Arsenal and his high expectations for the squad. He wants to see the best from Arsenal and its players as a former player and passionate commentator.

On the other hand, Everton’s performance against Arsenal was far from brilliant. They put in a poor performance, raising concerns about their future in the Premier League. If they continue to perform in this manner, they will be relegated. Sean Dyche, their manager, is under increasing pressure to make the required adjustments and improve the team’s performance.
