The biggest weakness in this squad is undoubtedly the CF position. Said it right from the start of the season. Nketiah and Jesus just aren't up to being the main man up top and it will cost us badly. Should have been 3 up before they scored
Jesus is ok but not the answer but Eddie is championship level. Chuba akpom etc.

We didn’t heed the warning from Raya’s Greta save that they were still in it.

Poor last 10 mins, bench not great Havertz, ESR, Nelson,

Merson’s pre-match prediction a mile off as you usual. They haven’t sat off … but we haven’t destroyed them.

Jesus is OK at certain stuff but not prolific enough. That was an absolute golden chance and he blazed it over - didn't even force a save. For 35 minutes we've been vastly superior in every department apart from the final third. If it wasn't for Romero we'd still be goalless. By comparison Son gets less than half a sniff and its 1-1

Oirish Deckers needs to step up here and show what he can do. He hasn't made any clangers but he was mostly anonymous and ineffective that half. This is the type of game where the big personalities have to lead the rest.

Eddie needs to be hooked ASAP. A couple of nice touches every other game and a goal every now and again is not enough. Fucking Sling him.

Make no mistake this is a shit scum team and we should beat them comfortably but our inconsistencies could easily see them beat us.
But how many games in the last god knows how many years have we been ahead and comfortable and let the opponents back into it,fucking dozens,we never learn

I fully agree but what fcks me off is persisting with liabilities now we have another one on. Rice off too.

We are fucked

You'd like to think ESR would be a great sub to bring on but because Arteta has given him no minutes he would be way off the speed.

Klive on.... :roll:

If there's a chance of getting Toney i think we should jump at it regardless of cost because our main striker is simply non existent.
