Match Thread | Arsenal vs Man City FA Cup (18/07/20)

[King Jay]

That’s why he let Sane go.

And since then our wing play sucks imo. But he will probably regret it himself.

Why is Pep so against wingers playing on their strong foot side

Fucking stupid, it's so obvious to see that inverted wingers are not working consistently.

 

[Blu1]

Desperate for defenders
Desperate for strikers

the stats sum it up 100%

I thought Mendy was good at crosses?

Not as good as Jesus.

Arteta before the match - "make the middle of the pitch very compact - let them play wide to Mendy (whoose crosses are poor) and Marhez who will some inside all the time into traffic..when we hit the ball play it into space (mendy will play you onside and not get nowhere near you and city's midfield wont have the pace to recover."

Arsenal players - ok boss

 

[argyle]

cross after cross after fucking cross.

It doesn't work with our team of midgets.

Resorted to this failed tactic too many times this season.

 

[Ban-jani]

Garcia is crap

 

[Tuearts right boot]

I thought Mendy was good at crosses?

Nah...Jesus

 

[Dax777]

When the time comes Haaland is a must. :(

 

[hateutd]

Typical city.... what we used to say.. :(

 

[Dr Jacoby]

If Wenger were dead, he’d been turning in his grave

 

[blueballs84]

14 shots, 1 on target...

 

[MichaelFrontzeck'sBathroom]

14 shots and only one on target, just not good enough

 

[Millwallawayveteran1988]

Kev having a shocker has caused a lot of problems.

They have all been shit. We are becoming way too reliant on him

 

[Blue and Proud]

Come on the spirit of ‘99

 

[ScottSinclair]

But why did he play him against Bournemouth in a match that meant jack shit and leave him on for 90 mins?? That’s just odd. Surely a 34 year old needs more rest between games.

Pep, as great as he is, has done shit loads of horrible decisions this year

 

[MCFCFanTX]

Attempting cross after cross in a team with no target man. Amazing tactic.

 

[halfmist]

A mixture of BT, Gundogan and Mahrez in the side, why the fuck didn’t I have a bet

 

[BlueMoonz1977]

Gabby has been non existent this half, not his fault, we havent exactly played to work any space for him

 

[FromPollockToSilva]

Lost all faith in Mendy aswell, he looks like he doesn't know what to do when the balls at his feet, dreadful

He probably wishes he still had Falcao and Mbappe to aim at in the box
