There’s absolutely no doubt in my mind that those players have it drilled in to them that if there’s a 30% chance of finding a team mate with a forward pass or a 70% chance with a sideways/backwards pass then take the safer option.

In the last 5 minutes and Palace camped we just continued to play sideways and backwards in front of them, complete risk averse football even when a goal down and supposedly chasing the game! Fucking hell the crowd were losing their shit at the sight of that.

Arteta was a bland, safe, average footballer when he played for us and his team as our manager plays in that exact same manner.

My thoughts from the game…

-Keep Pepe as far away from the squad as possible. Horrendous player who also gives KT the shits and turns him into a wreck. KT doesn’t have the confidence to go forward like he does when he plays with Saka in front.
- Oh Dear God. Dreadful.
- Partey. Lazy, sloppy, flash prick. Get rid.
- Tommy. Going backwards fast.
- Ramsdale. Proper.
- White. Looked good from where I was sat.

All it takes is for a side to have one or two dodgy players and it spreads to the side like a disease. Keep Pepe away and we are immeasurably better as a side. He is that bad.

Arteta. As out of his depth as you would be if you went down with the Titanic.

Yes we were shit but I personally think Pepe did ok tonight.
He set up the first goal for starters. what did anyone else do ?

Partey - agree, but we won’t get anyone better so get used to him.

Tommy - agree. He is not playing at the level of last season

Ramsdale :barscarf:

White - potential, but still a bit raw

I still think we play better with Laca as the focal point and the youngsters around him, i know Auba got a goal tonight but we just do not play the fast attacking football that he thrives on. :rubchin:

If Saka is out for the villa game I’d like to see auba out wide with laca in the middle, laca definitely links up the play better

Another absolute borefest- my God this c.unt has long since sacked every ounce of life out of this team

Rescued by Lacazette and Martinelli who showed more in 10 minutes than vanilla Odegaard and two left feet Pepe did all night

As for Partey - he wasn't in my top 10 favourite "partys" and has now been relegated below UKIP and "a chimp's tea". Useless lazy c.unt

Just seen the challenge on Saka from that sweaty sock c.unt. Absolutely fucking disgraceful. How that is not a straight red is anyone’s guess. Fucking scandalous.

Laca down the middle, Auba left, Saka right, ESR behind the striker. Martinelli can play in any of the positions

Fuck off Pepe - absolutely fucking gash

Saka is young and getting overplayed . He needs a rest and being kept away from Southgate for a bit.
Martinelli showed more in his 15 minutes. Too many of ours dithering and getting caught in possession.
Lacazette has to start.

My team selection for Friday would be
Pepe not in squad
Ohdeargawd on bench
ESR in a proper 10 position
Martinelli playing

Sorted.

1-1. Auba should retire & let Martenelli have a go. Sick of watching the old fella missing chances. :barscarf: :barscarf:
Cough cough :lol:
Splutter splutter :lol:
BTW I was before you :lol:
Best 10 minute performance by the old bloke for the season. That's why he's paid heaps every week ??, when he plays shit. Still prefer Martenelli. Poor game - lucky Arsenal. :barscarf: :barscarf:

I told yoh guys we would miss xhaka I say this not as a wind up buy because I know hw shit,lightweight and naive we are, one thing xhaka does do is link up play, draw fouls and slow the game down when needed.

I did warn you guys we'd miss him, that's how shit we are :roll:
No mate. No. We'd honestly be two or three down with that walking head wound in there tonight.
And we're down, mate your argument is not really valid, I'm saying we'd miss him when he was suspended and its proving so, you cant really argue that we'd be worse off when we were winning and now are losing.
Winning? A couple of wins against relegation fodder and a twenty minute blitz against a shit scum side. Clive contributed next to nothing in those games bar pointing and pissing possession away. Wether he was out there or not tonight we have been poor all over the pitch. We'd just be poorer with him.

We don't miss him. We are a poor team managed by a novice. We miss an experienced manager and a couple of better players.
Actually I was stating winning g in this game and now losing, xhaka would have slowed the game down while we were winning and getting fouls etc, it works for us. Hope that's sorted ot out :lol:
he was shit against scum...should have been sent off...total fraud
