Arsenal have been at the centre of controversy due to allegations that some players may have been faking injuries during the international break. The English club, Sporting's next opponent in the Champions League, saw several players leave their national teams, raising doubts about the genuineness of their physical problems.
"At the weekend, everyone said Ben White deserved to be booed when he came on. Well, he is the only Arsenal player still with the England squad. Madueke, fair enough, went off injured against Uruguay, and it was quite a heavy challenge," he said.
The commentator listed the players who showed no physical problems against Manchester City but were released from their national teams: "Jurrien Timber, Eberechi Eze, Martin Odegaard... They were all released after not playing against Man City. I have no issue with those four players. But Piero Hincapié, Bukayo Saka, Declan Rice, Gabriel Magalhães, William Saliba, Leandro Trossard and Martín Zubimendi had no problems against Manchester City".
