Match Thread | Arsenal vs Manchester City (12/08/18)

Aguero's been interesting. He's playing with far more intelligence than he used to. I still think he's adapting to the role from his older pre-Guardiola style, but it's exciting.

My thoughts as well. Shades of Romario in the 1st half.

 

[Bpughh]

Can't wait to see mahrez Mendy midseason. Were soooooo stacked

 

[Dr Jacoby]

I’d like to see De Bruyne introduced early. Neither Bernardo nor Gundogan are influencing the game quite as much as De Bruyne and Merlin can.

 

[FantasyIreland]

It's more than impressive when you take into account who's on the bench

His appraisal was not an accurate description of what took place,that is what i was addressing.

2nd half,let's fucking go!!

We need Kanté back

 

[Damanino]

Mahrez passing and crossing very Leicester style I mean he is still expecting Vardy to be on the end of it. here he has to wait a bit look inside, pull back find a runner or even play a quick one-two within the box.

Bernardo has to enter the game and control it a bit like Silva used to do it.

We arent playing near to our best still 1-0 not too much to complain in the Emirates but 1-0 is totally risky and can go still either way. We had 2-3 very good counter chances where we missed to come with a good shot as we made a mess of creating a chance.

"This would be a story if Arsenal could come back from here"

It's fucking 1-0 they are at home first game of the season.

 

[I'm Blue]

I fear that Raheem may attract a second yellow card so he may need to be taken off before the end. Sane has a great record against the Gooners I believe.

True, he'll probably get taken out and then get booked for diving.

Really impressed with Sergio

he is running more freely as well...you can see it in the way he is moving

Pep won’t be happy. Gundogan and mendy poor. Sloppy last 20 mins of that half and lucky arsenal didn’t punish us.

Saying that walker Laporte and sterling have been class
