So easily could be 5-1 Swansea.

AW you got out of jail with that 1st half effort, stop with your fanboy line up and sub off Iwobi and Xhaka for Mkhitaryan and Niles ASAP!!!!!!!!!!

HT 1-1

Arsenal need to be FASTER in passing going forward and more intense in defending. Cannot play such bad defense, it's madness. So many defensive errors. Also, who is the link between the CM and the AM/attack? Ramsey? Xhaka? El neny? If this issue isnt fixed, Arsenal will not improve even with the new signings.

Maybe Ozil drops into that role and Mkhi plays his role ahead. Might be worth trying or vice versa

Its not 5:1, this is what you all say every game. Relax and enjoy the game, and slow down on the whining. Or, you can carry on.

Its 1:1 for anyone not watching. Good first half.

If Arsenal were playing Chelsea, Man U or Man City, we would have been up for the game. Swansea is not high caliber opposition, so playing woefully is expected :D

Joined the game 25 minutes in..

Surely Monreal coming from 60 yards back cannot be the most dangerous runner off the ball in this team. Lacazette and Iwobi have to do more to create options.

Personally can’t wait for Mikhi to take Iwobis place in this team, Iwobi has been a passenger for weeks, apart from the odd good performance.

I have not seen much of Ramsey as well.

We need to improve all round in the second half and bring these 3 points home.

If you find self evident issues that plague Arsenal a problem take that up with Wenger.

Fact Arsenal have won just 3 & lost 5 of their 12 PL away games this season - taking just 13 points from a possible 36.

Again if facts hurt that's a you problem.

They just showed one of the Swansea attacks where on of their defenders intercepts and passes the ball to Ayew on the wing and then proceeds to run right past Xhaka and El-Neny through the midfield and was on the end of a return pass from Ayew to cross the ball that El-neny eventually intercepted. Where was Xhaka? He might as well have been at home. That kind of stuff should just be unacceptable!! :mad: :mad: :mad:

No pace on our attacking end at all - very unbalanced - need AMN to partner Mo in MF - Ramsey & Xhaka are luxury players - weak defensively & athletically very slow.
Don't like to see Elneny near the Swans box - suicide.
Xhaka let his runner go again & goal again - da!!!
Bring Giroud on & start crossing
If I give you a good wine, you will see how it tastes and after you ask where it comes from,'' ""To put players in my team who are not good enough will not strengthen the England team, and would weaken the Arsenal team.''The only thing I can say is that whenever England do not win it is always my fault,even when I am not at the game".Wenger said.

If ozil has to drop this deep, there's no point playing Xhaka.

By the way, lets give Swansea some credit, they have been compact and countered smartly. This is the team we saw v Liverpool, they have an idea of what they are now.

Wenger told the team after the Liverpool game, they should know what to expect from the Swanns.
