Arsenal (A) - PL Post Match Thread

Jeeeez - we're out of form but only two points off top spot - but some of our fans are in crisis mode.

We have this season's Prem top scorer, but some of our so-called fans are getting twitchy about his input.

Totally agree but DS was not that player either at 23. Let’s hope and not throw the baby out with the bathwater

I know, it’s just cos I want to see him succeed, just want him to fill out into a man, at 26/27 he could be our star player
 
Suffice to say AFTV is unbearable.

They're behaving as if they've won the league! They're terribly insecure as a fan base, they keep banging on about corrupt City and how they're the bigger club, but they've forgotten how to behave like one, their childlike joy at beating us tells the real story.

Big clubs shrug and move on, little clubs OTT the moment, coz even if they won't admit it, they know that today might be as good as it gets.
 
That match reminded me of some of our trips to Anfield. We rearranged our team to control the game and killed the game but also took our creativity away. Arsenal went with Jorginho and Rice and never really looked dangerous. They got a lucky goal but it in fairness they kept shooting and one deflected in.

We’re capable of much more. Arsenal will be better when Saka returns but they don’t seem as fluent as last season. They needed a striker and bought Havertz which doesn’t seem like the right answer.

This season, when the top six all play each other, it's not obvious who will win - they'll all take points off each other. We're out of form - a bit pedestrian today but Arsenal are closer to their best form. Even then, it was a wicked deflection.

Haven't watched any replay, but why was no advantage played for Rico - accidental handball?

Arsenal were quite turgid, without Martinelli starting and Saka they are pretty ordinary as we are without Rodri and KDB (sometimes) Arsenal could drag a league win out of the season but to me they look pretty average (so do we) We played Newcastle early and no other contenders - lose one key man (Rodri) and we are a shadow of the team...what was going through Rodri's head..he looked for that sending off, really unlike him. Him on form today - Bernie playing higher - i think we would have won BUT...
 
Thought one of our biggest problems today was how utterly abysmal Ruben, Ake and Walker were with the ball at their feet, when you’ve got 3 defenders so bad at controlling and passing the ball it’s a big problem, I’m surprised Pep chose today of all days to leave out Akanji.
