When Arsenal win the league. It will be us that has bottled it.
If teams want to deploy a low block - we are the best opposition to do this agaisnt. As like you say. We take 40 or so passes to get to their box.Exactly this - what are the opposition supposed to do, stay on the hallway line and watch us creep towards their area?
'low block' is just a modern phrase describing a situation that has been around since football began.
They weren't using a 'low block' for Erling's goal, were they? Now what could possibly be the reason for that?
Guehi in comfortable control, offside resets. In my opinion it's not offside.Someone needs to explain this offside law to me. First picture Barry is clearly offside as the ball is played up to him

Second picture shows the player moving towards the ball so surely active from an offside position, no clear chance of a goal at this stage so why hasn't the liner put his flag up?

In terms of his shot stopping last night they were bad misses by the Everton players who hit their shots straight at him. Not difficult saves.Something that is really beginning to fuck me off is, despite all his positives in shot stopping, and being a fucking giant, Donnaruma is also a bit of a fucking wet wipe. He doesn't control his box at all from set pieces, 1v1 he has complete dominance but when it comes to corners he just falls about and doesn't do the basics. Can forgive errors, part of the game and they're part of learning, but he does it nearly every game. You're fucking humungous man, run through whoever is in your way and get a hand to the ball!
I'd have been really frustrated if our players had similar chances and didn't convert them.In terms of his shot stopping last night they were bad misses by the Everton players who hit their shots straight at him. Not difficult saves.
If he's offside like a few on here are adamant it is.Thats whats puzzling me if we dont play the ball what happens.
I know he did but hes fooking offside
What a shame that he's a defender, then...I actually thought Guehi looked good going forward, defensively not so good.
Been a while since we had the 2nd half wobble, have we ever had one when Rodri has been on the pitch?
I hope Anderson is as good as everyone thinks...
Pep would have blown his top is there was any doubt of that being offside after the non red card
Even Guehi accepted it. He knew he fucked up.
Aye we did and Sky and the football media cane down heavy in how unfair it was and the rules were changed pronto. Now forgive me if ive missed it but nobody is banging on this morning about how unfair it was that a clearly offside player can then immediately come back onside and score a goal and somehow not be deemed to be interferring with play.Guehi in comfortable control, offside resets. In my opinion it's not offside.
we had one a few seasons back that was far more contentious (Villa?); defender brought it out the air and our offside striker came behind him and nicked it and scored. And that was onside for sure, so this one definitely is.
We've not dropped many points since Dias has been outI would have liked Dias back for these few games as he's had the experience of title run-ins, but not if he's rusty, no point bringing him back now imo

Jesus mate, bit harsh to criticise Haaland for his defending, in my opinion he’s been our best defender of corners/set pieces since he joined us.Great goal from Haaland, and he deserves credit for dragging us back into it ... but he was practically non existent otherwise ..... where was he when Semenyo put that early low cross into the six yard box ??? And, as one of our tallest players, why didn't he take it upon himself to get to that Everton corner, or at least try to put the scorer off ???
