I don't think Arsenal will miss/pass up on all those chances Inter had tonight.

His first game back, so he has a bit of leeway, but he has to put that one chance away. For as one-footed as Mahrez was, he also had a highly serviceable right foot. He rushed a couple of other decent opportunities, as well.

The tactics were lethargic. Pep was lethargic. The players were lethargic. It happens, but more concerning for me is how easily teams are playing through our midfield time and time again. Someone in the match thread mentioned it, but it feels like with Haaland up front and him not being ‘built’...

I'm curious why Lautaro, Pavard, and Dumfries aren't starting for Inter.

They'll write songs about you one day, mate!

Okay. You win.

I was hoping to see Doku. I'm surprised Pep hasn't changed any of the front three.

There were all sorts of stories flying around, which admittedly has impacted my thinking, possibly for the worse. One user on this forum said, "He's not actually sick," but wouldn't elaborate further. There were other rumours on Twitter, as well. I'm well aware that rumours are just that, so I...

I didn't say I did, did I? I asked why Phil isn't ready to play despite being back and training longer than Rodri, which is a perfectly reasonable thing to wonder.

He's the PFA Player of the Year. He's been back in training for well over a week now. I find it odd after Pep has said for years he doesn't need time to be fit, etc. Why is Rodri ready and able to play?

Are we all ready to admit something happened behind the scenes with Phil? I'm not going to speculate what, but I find it very hard to believe he's being left out for this long from being sick/still not 'match fit'.

They nullified us all the same at the Etihad last year, tbf. Held us to 1 shot on target, IIRC.

Credit to Arsenal. Not an outstanding performance, but they've defended really well.

Ederson Lewis-Akanji-Dias-Gvardiol Rodri-Nunes Bernardo Foden Doku Haaland

I'm glad to see MOTD highlight him.

Why is that a crazy suggestion? He's been cutting his teeth since 2008 and worked his way up from under 8 and 12 teams in Denmark. As Pep said after the game, it's a matter of time before he's at a big European club.

Still, 24 fewer hours to recover.

I thought I saw him warming up out of play while the game was going on?

I see they play tomorrow and then have to travel here. It's hard to say how much of an advantage that is, if at all, but noteworthy.

When did Nottingham Forest sign Grealish?!
