Where the fuck was Bernie playing in that game

Although it is too early to judge on the new signings, but Kova and Nunes does not look a game changers. They both good at passing but they seems to lack the abilities to create chances to score.

The loss of Rodri has shown up Kovacic so much, alongside him he looks quality, without, shocking

Spurs could be the dark horse, one game a week is a huge advantage.

Would be funny if they won the league the year Harry Kane leaves.

Surely he’s taking the piss, but if so it’s in pretty poor taste after we’ve just lost.

Poor taste lol

Nobody died. Its a game of footy.

Hahaha, even I tried my best in the match day thread but today we were poor, so many bad passes, players going missing etc. Let’s hope when they all return after the international break, all injury free, they pull their socks up and be ready for the games ahead. COYB

I guess I was lucky then not seeing any of the match but I just like to look on the positives. :-)

THE BEST TEAM IN THE LAND AND ALL THE WORLD.

 

[bluemoon32]

Any other player we can cover but not Rodders.
Should be on parity with the best earners at the club

 

[BlueMoonz1977]

Is this down period inevitable after winning the treble? I dont think so

Yes we have missed rodders, but we have players to step in. Truth is we have been poor and we were sleep walking to defeat today. Some players were totally inept of ideas to move the ball forward making Haaland look lost

Arsenal werent great either

Where the fuck was Bernie playing in that game

He seems to feel the same, flustrated as f%%K

 

[oakiecokie]

I don't know, has Pep lost his mind?

Why and how ??

 

[hilts]

Rodri is back and we’re closer to KDB’s return too.

Problem is we really need someone who can be competent if rodri is suspended injured or just plain knackered. Kev is a,different matter though. I think rodri Silva stones and dias are our most important players.

 

[cucumberman]

Right.

For me it's either Haaland on the pitch, or Julian on the pitch, but not both. Having two attacking forwards up front, granted they are both goalscorers, means one less in midfield.

Last season we had either Haaland, or Julian, and rarely ever both Haaland and Julian.

This season our midfield is being overrun. Rodri at least is both holding midfield and goal scorer at the turn of the switch. WIthout Rodri, we have Gvardiol, Kovacic both as central midfielder but not playmaker (Kevin and Gundogan).

 

[1961RICH]

Have to hammer them at the Etihad

 

[citymad]

If Rodders hadn’t fucked up we’d still be well clear at the top. No way we lose that today with him in front of the back 4.

 

[Frankie lad]

We all knew what Rodri importance was but this is more than that.
We can’t hold the ball up the top of the pitch and lose position instead of the endless ball rotation we are used to seeing.We never used to give the ball away but we did today.
Lack of class in forward players gone and injured mean our big fella may as well not be on the pitch.
Still think all the rest are average teams and we will sort it.

 

[Blue2202]

Absolutely dumb founded after watching that. No ambition to try and even get forward for 90 mins, treble winners turning up there like they're fucking Bournemouth or someone to try and be passive and hopefully nick a point? Arsenal are by no means a bad side but a far cry from the better teams weve had to challenge to win leagues previously.

No point expending any anger or energy on that performance blues if the team cant show any hunger or desire to try win it. Absolutely despicable

[Metal Biker]

Well that were a bit poo

 

[Deleted member 77198]

Midfield is key to how we play. That midfield today is levels below what we had last season.

Same as Wolves.

We had Europa League level midfields in both games.

 

[Bantamgaz]

Don't stress lads we all know what will happen come the end of the season ......... let Arsenal have there little party because we all know what follows when it really matters

 

[balotellishaircut]

I can remember seeing a lot of these posts last season when we were 8 points behind the tarquins, I’m not worried one bit, every side will go through a sticky patch and our time from the footballing gods is now.
