Match Thread | Arsenal vs Man City (01/01/22)

Yeah I think the fact that pretty much everyone bar Dias and Rodri have been listed as a problem player this half says to me that it's obviously a team problem, and not an individual issue.


Subs won't change that.

Not if he doesn’t have service he can’t. Are you even watching the game? Aguero wouldn’t even get the service he needs in this first half come on man. I love the guy but he is gone. We did and are doing fine without him time to move on. Next you’ll ready we miss yaya too

I'd say it's you who aren't watching the game.

We have had the ball into the danger zone at least as many times as Arse but are yet to have a shot on target.

I know he's gone you fucking plumb but we do need a goalscorer.

Long way to go yet blues and this team is full of magic

Arsenal doing to us what we usually do to all other teams. Not nice to be on the receiving end.
Have to increase the intensity and start controlling the game at our pace in the second half.

We’re playing so slow it’s making it easy for them
We’re playing through the press then going back and letting them press again

The fact that team has regressed during the past month was obvious

Our midfield especially..

KDB isn't just up to the standards this midfield requires.. I could already see it against Leipzig..

How the hell you can loose the ball like that and then don't track back.. !!!!!

Rodri-Bernardo-Gundogan midfield is something we need in those big matches, otherwise we are fucked..

And also, Foden is ten times better winger than Sterling.. That's the fucking FACT again..

Oh fuck off...... seriously we've just won 10 on the bounce and it's only half time, we haven't played well so far but there's 45 to go and we have more gears to climb.

When are we buying Martinelli? :)

I mean he can't finish so should fit right it

 

[wattle]

But lucky to get away with 0-1 at half time there. We look jaded after being one of the only teams to play all games over Xmas/new year. Everyone playing shit and no energy. Don’t know how we get out off this with a point. At least the wonderfully impartial commentary team are happy

 

[Jam Tomorrow]

Looks like the double trip to London with just sixty hours between games is paying dividends. Add to that some dodgy officiating and a club that has spent loads in recent years and they finally get a result.

 

[Don Karleone]

Where is Phil BTW

 

[bluealf]

Is it always like this on a match day thread? How can anyone who is supposed to follow us not know that Phil isn’t even in the squad?

As for the game, they have been good and we’ve been very shoddy, Bernie looking a bit gassed and Kev is finding an Arsenal shirt with most passes. On the plus side we are only one down.

Come on boys let’s get back at it.

Because some of them are 'frauds' and are in here to get their wummery out there.
