Re: Re: The Arsenal FC - Related News and Devts for 2022-23 Season

We'd more time to prep for this match at Anfield than the home team. Klopp said they went direct, we cannot afford to break that easy when a team goes direct. We died in the 2nd half - not acceptable!! As for Granit, he's shown us his weakness enough times.

Re: Re: The Arsenal FC - Related News and Devts for 2022-23 Season

Watching Liverpool away at the Etihad - Liverpool are really struggling to hold on to their identity. The drop in confidence & belief from last season is a head-scratcher.

Re: Re: The Arsenal FC - Related News and Devts for 2022-23 Season

Saliba & Tomiyasu are serious losses this time of the season. As for the loss, gooners, stop telling me how good fabio Veira is - he keeps showing me the opposite - he'd too many minutes tonight. Palace are a physical team desperate to go up the table. I don't trust Holding at the back.

Re: Re: The Arsenal FC - Related News and Devts for 2022-23 Season

Good 1st half - we must be stingy at the back & clinical in the opposite box. Ramsdale & Saliba we can't afford those heebie-jeebies passes - this is about focus - we want that chip!!!

Re: Re: The Arsenal FC - Related News and Devts for 2022-23 Season

We're really slacking defensively vs Sporting. Zinchenko's in error mode. He & White as the older guys should be showing leadership of that defensive unit - we've turned an easy tie into a tough one as per usual Zinchy is always a liability defensively. He should be playing in Xhaka’s spot. It’...

We're way too open on their counters. Gooners, we need to get over stopping a slow moving ball b4 shooting - they've a crowded box, shoot - they can't control deflections - some of our guys played like they were still in shock from their goal. Guys like myself who argued during the transfer window f...

Sure Partey's important to us but Jorginho was more effective than Xhaka & Ødegaard. Pep revealed they targeted Ødegaard in the 2nd half - he keeps getting marked out of games

Re: Re: The Arsenal FC - Related News and Devts for 2022-23 Season

@coach, I thought it was mighty ambitious of Arteta, especially after the equalizer, to continue going for it, given the absence of Partey. Also, the choice of Tomiyasu rather than the more defensive Ben White...again given the absence of Partey.. I thought Arsenal needed more of a controlling game...

Re: Re: The Arsenal FC - Related News and Devts for 2022-23 Season

We've lost to a good but beatable ManCity. Offensively we are inefficient. Mikel & Edu took some risks in the transfer January window - by not getting a 3rd preferably tall striker & a legit back up to Saka from the right. If you make a habit of passing backwards - you become predictable - c...

2nd match in a row where we were out hustled, out played & appeared baffled. Both times we looked undercooked even though we'd ample time to prepare.

Re: Re: The Arsenal FC - Related News and Devts for 2022-23 Season

You don't fight for the chip & allow yourselves to lose matches due to new manager bounce. The need for a physical Giroud-type striker with pace is necessary for these type of teams. But our main problem was intensity-deficit - we hardly pressed in the 1st half - we're the team that went to Stam...

Never saw Partey in those midweek practice clips - he's looking like a man who hasn't practised in a while - no rhythm to his play - unforced errors. Both Saka & Martinelli are doing the Pepe - holding to the ball long enough to be double teamed etc - Will someone tell Xhaka he doesn't have to b...

Martinelli has been out of form for at least 3weeks - neither Rowe or Trossard is a pacy player - we need pace for at least 60 mins out wide - hope the kids finds his groove soon. I'll sub White for Tomiyasu not for bad play - he's an aggressive player & we can't get a yellow card - Rashford goe...

If true, it will just confirm what I say that we just don’t know how to sell players.
Damn shame Arteta couldn’t heal his rift with this player.
Word's we have a 15% sell on clause - He's the same age as Sambi.
