Match Thread | Arsenal vs Man City (08/10/23)

[jollylescott]

They’ve got more threat now with martinelli on

 

[Tricky_Trev]

Arteta saw Eddie Howe asking Newcastle players to get the crowd going against us and has decided to do the same.

 

[give it to gordon]

Odd how the gooners need to keep waving at the crowd to get them going

 

[Johnny Mars Bar]

Arteta’s got his iPad out, things must be getting serious.

 

[5 Hit Gibbon]

Pep is taking a big risk leaving Kovatic on and not making any changes.

 

[Silva&Silva]

Arsenal players constantly telling their fans to wake up, they're desperate to beat us.

 

[deano ou812]

Who did arsenal take off ?

 

[Blu1]

You honestly think Kova will score?

No but if he did Lego head will go nuts

 

[Crooked_rain]

Today I wouldn’t have a striker but Alvarez would lead the line for me. I’d rather fill out midfield

Isn't it already filled out? We aren't playing with any of them in wide positions... we've got Phil, Rico, Kova, Bernardo and Alvarez all playing quite centrally/narrow.

I think it's already looking too congested as it is.

 

[Nour]

Even Bernardo can't make a tackle we are fucked blues

 

[Kippax Street 1880]

Naive from Pep. He must know we got away with one there. Even the ref will know he got one wrong so the next one good or not is curtains.

I thought Oliver was right tbh, Rice made a meal of the second one, Kovacic was trying to block the pass more than tackle him. He should still have played it safe and subbed him for Nunes, hardly having a stormer anyway.

 

[IcriedwhenTueartleft]

Can't get into their half..sloppiness continuing at start of 2nd half

 

[malg]

We're not good today are we.

 

[heslops barnet]

Not a good game to watch…….

 

[Nightmare Walking]

Bernie can't make a tackle either.

[super_city_si]

Sleepwalking to a loss here.

 

[wolviedinho]

Surprised by pep. He must see something we don’t.

 

[big gaz]

If he’s not ready why is he on the bench?

To keep you happy :-)
