"More positives than negatives" said every time we lose or draw.

That's relegation talk.

Well we're close mate!

Better than say we are doomed with 18 games to play still

 

[Sapient Hawk]

Yes it's already ugly to be fair 1 win from 15 with many draws

To make matters worse, I just realized Sheffield are at the Emirates before we go to Stamford Bridge. They're not exactly a team we want to be playing in this form

We'll need to pick ourselves up really and fast players need to come back from injuries like bellerin Ceballos and Martinelli

 

[MLK79]

Didnt realise Liverpool are 19 unbeaten in the league...

They're on a 36 game streak in the league. Just 13 games away from our record and you just don't know who is going to beat them.

 

[Mohamed7]

We have never had these many young and rubbish,older players together. We are seriously lacking quality in defense and midfield.

We cannot achieve anything with this squad. Remove Auba and we will be rightly fighting against relegation.

 

[SA Gunner]

Its gonna get worse before it gets better.

First things first, getting Xhaka out and finding a system that works without him.

This game is measured on absolutes, but luckily for us the rest of the story between these absolutes look good. I am not someone to jump to conclusions this quickly, but what Im seeing from the manager is top class, and I'm convinced we can build with this man.

To quote the cliche... we go again.

I don't think it needs to get worse though... **** me, how worse can it get, have you seen the table?

 

[A_G]

The people saying the squad needs a huge overhaul probably wrote Torreira off, now look at how promising he’s been since Emery left. Not to mention Özil possibly being reinvigorated.

No doubt, we ****ed at the moment. And yeah we should fear the worst.

But as @yousif_arsenal says, we have 18 games to go. And had we held our resolve for another 10 minutes, would we have been speaking a different language.

We need to get our ****ing **** together... and it starts with one win, one big win.

 

[Ashybashy86]

No playing excuses for Arteta. The only leeway I will give him is that he's not had enough time. Lampard didn't have a single transfer and actually lost players yet he has been able to take his team to where they are.

A player I hadn't even heard of came in at right back fro them today!

So, only excuse I will give Arteta is that of time. Little improvements seen and will like to see what we can do over the course of the rest of the season, whether he gets new players or not.

Chelsea have better youth players than us. Lampard would struggle with ours because they’re really not that good.

 

[SingmeasongSong]

Ffs, the result seems to have blurred the performance of this game completely
- I know it hurts to have 0 points at the end, but could we just acknowledge for a second what Arteta has achieved in 2 ****ing games without ever having the chance to really put some full trainings sessions in ?

I was gobsmashed by that first 55-60 minutes.
We looked like an absolute top side.

Elite manager in the making - extend his contract already.

Torreira looked world class in the first half and then the opposite. I can't work him out.

 

[Yousif Arsenal]

Chelsea have better team than us specially defensively and midfield Jorginho and Kante are far superior than Torreira or xhaka better youth who were tearing it apart in championship. Lampard is not genius or something they lost 7 games in league today he get lucky like he was getting lucky with his deflection goals.

 

[Ashybashy86]

It’s been a weekend filled with controversy. This **** league should be investigated for inside betting. I refuse to believe the refs are this inept.

None were wanted st the last WC. They really are as bad as we think.

 

[Hleb's Sirush]

24 points after 20 games so depressing.

And with more than half the season gone, our goal difference at the moment is -4.

My wildest nightmares couldn't have prepared me for this.

 

[Newchange]

Is no one else alarmed by the lack of goals coming from midfield. HOW we missed ramsey. SO many draws could have been wins with more goal threat from midfield .

 

[Pop Tart]

We threw this game away, one of those things . If we play like we did before the equaliser we do well. Torreia had his best game all year, auba with the perfect captain performance, getting stuck In winning tackles.

Positives aside Nelson should not be anywhere near the team. Özil while he has not be KDB levels was good as in the last game. Should of stayed on in both games. Pepe coming on way too late, Arteta slow with subs but I am liking what I am seeing from him. More fight from us.
