I’ve seen two terrible ones that have led to counters ... whole team seems to be sleep walking so far

I'm not sure Aubameyang is effective on the wings. He doesn't have the passing and creative nouns out there.

Great defensive read by HB. Without his intervention two Newcastle players would have buried that

Another corner is that seven now

That midfield is not working. Guendouzi is too deep. Xhaka is too slow to cover enough ground. Ramsey is busy playing as the third centre forward forcing Ozil to move too deep for the ball. The too forwards are isolated because there is nobody to bring the ball to them. Emery has to decide now. Either he bench one of Ozil/Ramsey now to bring somebody else or he is not going to last at Arsenal.

What a set up by Laca and this scrub blows it with Abou open for the finish

Only God knows where Ramsey and Ozil think they are playing in. What is going on here ? What tactics and videos did Unai make these guys watch

Xhaka needs to really step up! Guendozi is doing far too much here and Xhaka is busy giving balls away.

Did Arsenal not learn from Cardiff. Why are Ramsey and Bellerin left on an island vs Lascelles and the other big defender to defend a set piece?

I am not watching, but I can confidently say that Xhaka, Ramsey and Ozil are not playing well

Something is wrong with Arsenal. How can you lack so much energy after getting a week off?

Unai has a lot of issues to deal with.

Abou looks frustrated. Laca is playing like he is high on helium. Chaka is running Guendo into the ground because of his ineptitude and Mustafi ... ahh never mind :rotf:

Only good news is that it’s still 0-0
