We need a midfield beast of the Patrick Vieira/Kante variety. I don’t have it in for Xhaka like some on here but no fuckign way are we winning a league with him as the main man in midfield. Partly is decent but obiovusly not a full season player.
We don't 'have it in for him' we just see what's in front of us and he is absolute DOG SHIT. "FACT"
Since that FA Cup tie, it just hasn’t been going for us. We don’t make adjustments, keep playing the ball from the back when we already got stung once.
Nothing going for us, dare I say, it might start capitulating for us here on out if we don’t start making mid-game adjustments.
Arteta has a real blindspot as far as Xhaka is concerned.
I've no idea what Tierney has done wrong. He's class.
It's NOT just Arteta. Started with Wenger, continued with Emery and it will continue until his career is over, with Arteta. It is staggering that this dreadful, dreadful player has led such a charmed life. The only time he got subbed, he threw a hissy fit and flipped off the fans.

I like to think I'm objective without a biased opinion. But he has done absolutely nothing effectively tonight.
Zinchencko is not a LB so you have a defence wondering where their LB is. This has been exploited multiple times - the offside 'penalty', the 2nd and 3rd goals.
There's a reason City have gone down our left. We need a defender in there and Zinchenko in for Xhaka.
When you think that the two sides' back up.strikers are Alvarez and Eddie the Feather it makes you realise that we are still light years behind the level we need to be.
