Arsenal (A) | PL | Post Match Thread

The subs were a tactical masterclass with the defenders

then he brought savinho on for the MotM and we fucked it.

feels like a missed oportunity as they were goijg knowhere, but I expected to get beat so will take a point grundingly
Savinho should be nowhere near the first team. An absolute myth of a player.
 
Nice to see some fight but we are so far below
The three points should have been ours.

Doku is quickly becoming a very important player for us.

Also,

Jamie Carragher speaking for Sky sports before the game “I think Arsenal will have too much for city, Arsenal are a top team”.

(Manchester City have won the Premier League title 4 times in the last 5 years)

Is it just a short memory this fella has or stupid as well?
Nothing wrong with that comment, we are not at Liverpool or arsenals level, and haven't been for some time. Carragher is a **** though
 
I can't fault the approach.

Arsenal had 2 more days rest, force Arsenal to legitimately create a goal, and score a counter.

Just unlucky to concede that, but they were trying all game and it's why defending for so long is not a good long term goal.

But this felt like for a particular reason, I dont think we defend in a 541 for more than half a game normally, but we had less energy clearly.
 
Taking out halland was a bit relief for them especially tight game like this we need haaland till the end to defend set pieces and score from it too
 
Well, after two losses in a row if you told me three games ago that we'd beat UTD, beat Napoli and draw away to Arsenal - with our new team - I'd have applauded.

Think the boys did well. Disappointing to have not won obvs but let that not get in the way of an amazing defensive performance and a great upturn in performances.
 
Parking the bus isn’t for us.
And yet we conceded because we turned into the old City and got caught by a ball in behind, that's what pisses me off, if you're going to park the bus than park the fucking bus to the end, don't suddenly decide to play that stupid high line with no press in the most critical moment, ffs.
 
Frustrating to concede so late. But we've defended brilliantly for 99% of the game. Nunes was good as well and Doku played his role perfectly and maybe should have scored in the 2nd half. Obviously better than losing 5:1.
 
2 points dropped after switching off at a crucial time … Parking The Bus isn’t us and I never want to see it again.

Taking Big Erl off was unforgivable when he was our only outlet.
Everyone was complaining about the highline we did last season and no people complaining about dropping deep lol.. it’s a great point.
