Arsenal 2 vs Chelski 1 FT

[Tobi17]

So how did Ozil perform?

[Skylolo]

Well done Arsenal.....gritty.... On to Wembley as usual.

Some good performances all round, but Monreal and El Neny were wonderful for me.

Same two for me. In the 2nd half El Nenny started dropping in as a 3rd CB and the defense gained some stability.
The passing was more fluid.

Still a bit confused at why all those numerous chances at passes over the top were not taken. The linesmen were dodgy today too.

Spot on Bro, there were at least 2 situations where the offside calls were wrong...

Damn!! Wenger must wish he played Conte's CFC every weekend. He has Conte's number on speed dial.

CFC's biggest mistake was switching to defensive mode after going ahead early. Game was not even 10 mins in and the team was defending so deep. Invited the unnecessary pressure that resulted in the corner for the equalizer. That I put on Conte.

Also feel bad for Rudiger. 2 silly goals off his deflection. Hope Willian is not out for long. Too many games in quick succession.

Kudos to Arsenal. Iwobi for me was Arsenal's most immense play. He played really well on both sides of the ball.

Even U loved Iwobi. But boy what are going to do about Moses? Agreat 1 v 1 player regressing in front of us.

And I think it was a bone headed move to bring in Ross that early and also to not have Musonda on the bench but 2 CBs and a RWB instead! Conte set himself up for failure.

Iwobi was good too but you cannot give away the ball like he did today, some dangerous sloppy passing. He held his own though, won the battle with VM

Mo ENeny ... Mr. Underrated with another starring outing

[ojafranpa]

We beat Chelski. Where is green4life?

[Cally]

Come on you gunners!! Tenacious performance against very formidable opponents.

The much-derided Arsene Wenger reaches yet another cup final, but it will be summarily dismissed.

Thank you, Monreal-Rudiger, and Xhaka-Rudiger.

On to the next game.

Omo, I was very impressed with Iwobi. Moses did beat him once or twice but Iwobi stamped his presence as game worn on. Hardly put a foot wrong. I got to praise our SE player.

The Barkley move was that lack of trust Conte has in Bats. Bats cannot play back to goal. Even Hazard does a better job back to goal.. but it was clear Barkley could not play as one of the front 3. Not enough practice time with rest of team.. Clearly, Bats was more of a plan B (in 2H) and Conte was determined to keep it that way. I wonder if he could have used Bats closer to how he used him last weekend.

Honestly, I thought the team played well given recent performances. Just 2 very stupid goals that I cannot really fault any individual player. I just wished the team did not auto result to defensive mode after scoring. Started well and should have maintained that momentum well into 1H. Also, Bakayoko looks a more solid player in a 2 man MF than 3..

Just glad don't have to see Arsenal again this season. Might as well mark Conte-Wenger matches as a draw or loss to CFC .. How the mighty have fallen..

[anikulapo]

Arsenal just pay dirtmund what they are asking and wrap up abu Biko

[Tunisian Gooner]

3 biggest factors in the game.

1. Lady luck. Finally Arsenal recipient of footballs gods favor on key goals, in big game

2. Wilan injury was a definite game changer as Barkley is trash.

3. Conte arch nemesis..AW's back 3. AW truly is Conte's daddy.

Our no longer so secret agent keep up the good work and destabilize these blue women

[bouncino]

Good spirited performance
Xhaka may have scored but he did not add much to the game.
Looks like giving away the ball was not the birthright of Alexis Sanchez. Starting to look like team culture.
How many times did Arsenal players aimlessly give away the ball today. Something the coaches need to seriously work on.

[deanotito]

Don't know how Conte keeps his job. If na the same Abramovich, Conte is officially a gunner...sorry, goner
