He's getting older, suggesting he retires isn't turning on him

Well it didn’t sound like a compliment mate.

Walker has been immense. Players get older and players make mistakes in every game.

It's martineli who needs blocking off from getting near edersdon on corners they play it deep and block off the keeper so he can't back peddle

Happens at every corner, they use 2 men to block the keeper. Doesn't excuse the free header though.

 

[Tuearts right boot]

We were playing fine without him, the Rodri injury ruined our momentum

Unfortunately we are far far too reliant on the guy

 

[Paladin]

i dont care, cant touch nor obstruct the keeper in the 6 yard box

Where does it say this in the laws of the game?

 

[Keeper!]

But if we had two people close in on Gabriel with no attempt to get the ball, he'd go down and it'd be a penalty. They do corners like American football and get away with it every time. Someone was saying they were just 'holding their ground.' They weren't. They were deliberately running into Ederson to prevent him from moving towards the ball.

shit , weak defending

 

[Eric Hitchmough]

Fuck off Merson

 

[kaz7]

COME ON BLUEBOYS

 

[madloaf]

Lets listen to the coked up fucking gibberish of an ex-arsenal player for an impartial balanced view.

 

[Plays By Sense Of Smell]

I would have Stones on for Walker, move Akanji across and Stones would help us defend corners as well.

I’d also have Foden on for Bernardo, and go at them from the off.

I’d prob bring Foden on for Gunfo and then look at Doku for Jack.

 

[Cambo]

Said before the match watch the cornets.

And the first one was the warning. The screening on Ederson and the run from Gabriel. We didn’t learn.
