Match Thread | Arsenal vs Man City (15/02/23)

Our press is none existent. What happened to that hellish press from 2 years ago? Did Arteta take it with him?

Complete lack of pace?

Mahrez, Grealish, Haaland (who's quick but not over 10 yards), KDB and Gundo pressing has no pace

Compare that to when we had Sterling, Jesus, Bernardo, Foden buzzing around and KDB, Mahrez, Gundo were all younger and a touch quicker

Need to take Bernie off. Taylor’s itching to get us down to 10 men

Get him if he’s the only guy we can stick cm who has energy. He’s making silly challenges because he’s basically playing left back because our trio in centre midfield are ghosts.

Mahrez is playing in slow motion tonight, losing the ball all the time...but then again, he often has poor 1st halves then does something in the 2nd to win it

 

[Dax777]

Our football style has fallen off the edge of a cliff, I just can't understand why

No press, poor control of the ball. And no possession.

 

[Scottyboi]

Look at the angle he had to shoot from didn't even need to come out and challenge that.

Wtf did i just witness? The most one side cunting officiating Ive seen in...well...possibly...the last high profile city match. How many times have we seen booing for oppo time wasting and nary a fuckin yellow card in sight unless 5 min into extra time. A few boos from the prawn sandwich Tarqs and he couldn't wait to whip out a yellow like it was his todger hanging in front of a united badge.

We’re playing shit
Arsenal are not really that great
Take the crowd and Anthony Taylor out and they are nothing

 

[Blu1]

It’s a soft penalty but it’s a penalty. Eddie was not even looking at the ball.

 

[blue whippet]

So, against Villa, Martinez comes rushing out, clatters into Haaland, we score but the keeper gets the free-kick. It’s absolute bollocks this.

It's inconsistent to say the least.

 

[BlueTG]

And whilst we’re at it, can somebody fucking lamp Arteta.

What a wanker. I cannot stand the guy pillocking about everywhere.
