I think this is worse. I really do. No patterns of play no desire no energy nothing against an arsenal missing a few of their biggest players.so you didn't see the Southampton game or the first half against Spurs

Same issues. No spark in the midfield....little creativity anywhere
Kdb continues to be an issue. He has gge magic in the boots still but without the ball we are carrying him...mahrez and grealish offering very little in terms of possession or attacking threat.
We gave gone from a team who dominated possession and had creative players to one who are just about hanging on and even if we win this we need to start to realise that this us a team that is probably in transition.
Normally you would have foden. Bernardo both buzzing around....both out of form and that means Grealish and mahrez rightfully start BUT the levels drop off with those 2 and kdb is just not the same player

Should have binned Gundogan and Bernardo last summer. Bernardo is a slapped arse **** and Gundogan has just shot his bolt. It was obvious last season.

I think we are definitely seeing some sort of complacency that has set in with a number of players,the desire is sort of there to win now and again but the hunger over a season isn’t..

We really should of tried playing players back into form & fitness in this game, out of that starting XI I would only of picked Ortega & maybe KDB

I'm convinced it's the formation that we're playing (or trying to play) which is causing the problems. Bring Bernardo on for Gundogan, move KDB back into CM, bring Walker on for Lewis (or play Lewis at RB) and push our wide players further forward. In other words, go back our 4-3-3.Unsure what the plan is.
Gone from a really fluid XI to this slow and turgid side. Midfield is none existent. We used to run rings around opposition midfields.

He should’ve thought onVery unfortunate for Stones but....if he'd gone tight to the back of Trossard straightaway instead of allowing him to turn and run down the line it wouldn't have turned into a sprint and he wouldn't have done his hamstring.
Mahrez needs the service though, and he's not getting it from the midfield.Mahrez, Gundy & Kev doing very little
