Saka looks like a guy who played 1000 minutes this morning rather than someone who’s had 3 weeks off.

Hard to pick out our worst player, they’ve all been fucking gash.

Captain invisible missing again
Missing from what? The whole midfield is non-existent and their tactics have totally nullified us.



You think it is tactics that is doing us ??? It is a complete lack of balls that is doing us here. It started with saka lying down like a bitch everytime that useless hairy c.unt breated on him, and our midfield is hiding too.
Have to agree. We are spineless out there today. No leaders. No guts. :oops:

Embarrassing half of football from us.

Didn't think we could top the shitness for our first half against Citeh but that's easily surpassed it.

Raya fills me with less confidence than Mannone did when in goal for us.

Zinchenko needs to concentrate on his defending and less on his shit social media posting.


Should we be surprised though ? With exception of a game against a shit team from a shit dutch league, have we impressed in ANY GAME this season ?

Yes, it's called pressing and we always struggle when teams press hard against us, we end up going backwards a lot......like today. Doesn't help that no-one in a red shirt can pass the ball of course.
Our players love to have time on the ball and we don't have a second today. Most teams pressing like that run out of steam so maybe we can get something in the last 30 mins unless Arteta has a masterplan.

I'm starting to think that saka might be a tad overrated
Rubbish

He is just not fit - been rushed back to play today because we still don’t really have strength in depth

Trouble is (and I'm not excusing him) but Rice is having too keep doubling back and going wide to cover for the absent Zinchenko and also the same for Saka... who is Non-existent.

So he's been unfit for months now? Because let's take our Gooner blinkers off and admit as much as we love the kid he has been quite poor for months now.

The whole team has actually been poor for months - the win over City papered over the cracks.

Can't disagree there Rob. It's true we have been.

Near half time they passed a ball into midfield to a chav player when rice was maybe 10 yards away from him - instead of going to press the chav player, rice turned and ran back towards his own goals and allowed the chav player to turn and run at us, and that to me is a failing on rice cos he prefers to intercept and doesnt like to mark anyone.
Go back and watch the zinchenko booking again - ball passed to mudryk and white stands 5 yards off him and allows him to turn and drive inside where zinchenko fouls him. Contrast that to what their players are doing when we get the ball cos they are right on us - it is guts and desire and we are a disgrace

Partey for Jorginho at half-time. Someone tell Jesus to stop wandering about and stay up front. I would say ESR or Nelson on in twenty minutes time but it will be Nketiah first.

Saka is getting nothing from Odegaard and there is nothing to aim at in the middle so he goes back to White who finds Saliba who goes across to Gabriel and he finds Zinchenko who gives the ball away
