Post-match views from the forum:
SA Gunner: “Get this @Farzad:
This rookie, nearly man, wannabe Arsenal manager, not only dominated but pulled down the pants of the second-best manager in the PL and one of the greatest to do it.
He did it in this great manager’s backyard. On the first ****ing home game of the season.
He reduced the great Emery to hoping for mistakes, deflections, and other lucky moments to stay in the game. And had a 10 minute spell of dominance… AT HOME
This Lego man may just become worthy one day you know.”
hydrofluoric acid: “So sloppy in attack and defence today. Teams will ruin us if we keep playing Partey in midfield, the guys were running through him easily.
Raya was amazing today, and Trossard had a great income. Our structure and coaching from Mr. Mikel is elite but players still may be lacking sharpness. Arteta will know what to do!”
Mrs Bergkamp: “Good, ugly win for us. Raya, Ode, Saka and Trossard saved us. The performance was horrible. The balance in midfield was all wrong. If Merino can play like his highlights on a consistent basis, then we’ll improve. Partey can no longer run back and Rice doesn’t seem able to run back in this match so we were run through in midfield and that can’t happen next week.”
