Arsenal (A) - PL Post Match Thread

If we’d had the stroke of luck with a massive deflection instead of those nobheads and won through it then nobody on here would say we were shite/ kin clueless etc etc. we would all be saying this is what champs do. Let’s hope Rodders doesn’t have another brain fart Red as we miss him.
But we didnt though? Because we showed absolutely no ambition to try and play forward and score... so we got exactly what we deserved.
 
Tired of reading this, especially from opposition fans (which you're not, I understand that). Look at the other team. Look at how they set up. Arsenal, supposedly the second best team in the league, playing as if they're away, every single man behind the ball when we had it for the vast majority of the second half. I couldn't believe it. Not pressing us, not coming out at us, because they're terrified of leaving any miniscule space behind them. They win with a deflected goal, and virtually no other shot worth mentioning. That tells you everything.
How are we supposed to be scintillating in these conditions?

We’re supposed to take some risks to win the game. We broke their press on multiple occasions in that match but chose to slow the game down and let them recover, instead of going for the kill.

When you have players like Foden, Doku, Haaland and Alvarez, we should be giving the opposition something to think about.
