Martinez's distribution is brilliant. Two or three today have been absolutely spot-on.

Very good performance this in the 1st half.

Pepe finally coming good, Tiernry finally getting some game time. The team is coming together.

Ok considering the team that started we played better than I expected in that half however I am absolutely terrified every time we have to defend crosses and set pieces :wink:

Good solid half Pepe has been positive on the ball and way more involved,Thursday he was anonymous,player we need to be getting the ball last third of the pitch and to be direct.

Do like the look of Tierney,just hope he can get a run of games,Martinez doing a Ederson last couple of games some impressive long range passes.

Satisfactory scoreline so far but I am finding these games completely unwatchable!

We wasted every corner we had. Lacozette is a waste of space. Hope our luck holds out. :barscarf: :barscarf:

It's funny cos I think that laca has been doing well - showing well for the ball, hold up play has been decent, and he has been working hard.

Pepe doing well and especially in the air :shock: :shock:

Passing across the back 3 has been woeful - really shit

Martinez needs to be coming for those long throws in and around our 6 yard box - pinging good passes out, and good shot stopping is all well and good, but a big fcuker like him needs to command his area more

Whilst I agree Leno is not particularly commanding in that respect either and both our goal keepers need proper training in that area.

Have to agree about Lacazette, I thought his hold up play and little lay offs have been good, Pepe has had a couple of semi-chances from it.

72% passing and only 3 shots, one of them a penalty, For some reason i'm dreadingthis second half.

David Luiz going off with an injury makes us a lot stronger.

We have been awful second half. Hanging on by a thread here.

I don’t think we’ve won a header all game. Our CBs strut forward at set pieces like Billy Big Bollocks, and then just stand there and jump on the spot whilst one of the opposition players actually attacks the ball and heads it a few yards away from them. Whenever a cross comes into our box our defenders just stand there and watch.

Maitland-Niles, Willock, Xhakatard, Kalashnikov, Luiz and Mustafalaugh are all appalling footballers and should not be at a club like Arsenal - even an Arsenal that is struggling and owned by a complete cùnt.
