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

Against any team that comes looking for a scrap and are more than willing to put their bodies on the line,Mahrez and Sterling,and more recently,Jesus and Kev,all but vanish.
Circumstance has largely dictated i guess,but that wasnt a wise choice of 11 from Pep.

We need more aggression,more substance,and far more energy in the second half,otherwise only one team are scoring again.

Priority is Walker.......he is needed to counter Martinelli and add some bite, and then move Cancelo left.

 

[Newman Noggs]

Remind me never, ever to watch a game on BEIN again. Fucking Richard Keys hates us with a passion. Anyway, need to buck our ideas up. I'd get the Gundog on for Jesus or Mahrez

 

[manchester blue]

Cancelo over left Walker on?

Cancello out of sorts, understandably, but think he has to do this.

 

[maurizio]

If Walker is up for it, bring him on. Gundo for Jesus. If we are still losing with 15 to go, Palmer for Mahrez.

Tweak it slightly gundogan on then stick it too these fuckers ..

 

[Scottish Cityzen]

The positive is that it’s only one. We could and should have scored too with Ruben.

Pep talk at half time, a few tweaks and a feeling that they won’t be able to sustain the same intensity.

Hoping to see a good reaction from the boys second half.

 

[I'm Blue]

We’re better than Arsenal, just not in that half.
Fingers crossed that we can change that in the second half.

Rodri is not ready. He has been out of position many times.

Ake is struggling against Saka.

We need Walker's pace and Rodri needs to get back into his proper position!

We are too open in the middle and passes are just going through us easily! We need Gundo to support Rodri

 

[bluevillain]

1-0 down at half time in Prem. Don’t we historically struggle to overcome this.

This has a loss written all over it...Arsenal are smelling blood!!!

I did say this in the Pre-match Thread but nobody listened. Like I said there, at least losing to Arsenal will hinder the Rags progress towards Champs Lgue qualification.
