Arsenal havent had their blip ... yet. I cant believe some are ready to throw the towel in before the halfway point?

Have you forgotten Leicester City already?

Arsenal lack depth and any decline in performance is more likely to be due to injuries than anything else.

While I'd never write City off, our 'blip' seems to have been going on for much of the season. All we can do is keep on to the end like we always do, and hope others fall by the wayside.

just got home piss wet through.
thanks city
1 point out of the last 6 at home
v two teams who worked so much harder, who wouldn't normaly stand a chance of 1 point.

He needs a strong assistant manager

Interesting thought. You may be onto something.. Lillo filled the Arteta void and he's not there now.

Cancelo's defensive error at Anfield

3 goals given up to Rags (ok maybe 1 was unstoppable but 3??)

Unless Grealish has a really strong second half of the season I don’t see how he can stay beyond the summer. Cause he’s been here for 18 months now and he’s offers fuck all

Where's he going, we're stuck with him!

Uh-oh, Arsenal have conceeded again.

That’s their title challenge over, then.

We just seem to concede on the counter attack most games. Were these the type of games that Phillips was bought for?

 

[blueparrot]

Surely has to stop this Mahrez and Grealish on the wings. It’s not working. It’s slow, turgid and very easy to defend against.

Yet the games we lost we didn’t have Grealish and Mharez on the wings, who’d have thought.

I was counting the games since our last clean sheet, in reply to your comment about it having "been forever since we had a clean sheet". Those two games you mention happened before the Leicester game I referenced earlier, hence my confusion.

Possession means fuck all if you dont do something with it. Possesson football is soooooo last year

When we played Arsenal away last year. Thought there wasn't much between the teams. They have kicked on and we've regressed. Not surprising as they are a young energetic team and we have quite a few battle scarred veterans.
