Imagine paying £10 to watch this.

Reckon @American_Gooner takes a cut for advertising it as well, the sly bastard.

Pretty interesting affair so far, should have had a penalty aswell.

Been really impressed with Saka so far, really running the show. Elneny and Willock have been average - I really would like to see them be a bit more forceful at times, especially Willock. He's playing way too casually for my liking. AMN also far too casual. Right side of the pitch is suffering at the moment - Pepe not having a great game either. Nelson's been dangerous and I'm so happy to see some confidence from him but he really should have scored his latest chance - that took some gloss off his game but he's been impressive. Nketiah's been OK but not enough in the game.

It's been OK from us but need more from some members of the team.

 

[EmeryCouldnt]

You can't be good midfielder when you misplace 4 simple passes a game

I dunno... some people rate Xhaka.

 

[NieThePiet]

Hard to see any special quality from AMN.
He will do his job in most of the games, can play more positions and is doing it on a solid level, but only defensively..

If you see Saka on the other side, who is nearly creating all chances.

 

[SA Gunner]

Throw 30m at Leicester on deadline day for Maddison, if Auoar doesn’t materialize.

 

[Impact]

Saka, so so good. Decision-making and final ball selection is elite.

 

[Pop Tart]

AMN is taking the piss haha. Lad does not care for this cup.

He only gets out of bed for the big games

 

[Manberg]

Saka's been elite. Nelson has shown moments of quality. El Neny has been good.

Bring on the second half.

 

[El Duderino]

Whatever happens though, the fact that we could get close to 100m for Nelson, Willock, AMN and Nketiah if we put them on the market is really something this club needed.

 

[AbouCuéllar]

How does Willock get a start?

Don't really rate him myself but he actually gave a better performance than I expected. Had a couple of decent-ish passes and nice little ball to put Pepe through.

It's a big problem how little personality he has to receive the ball in the middle of the park, though, yeah. That might be by design--heard Arteta screaming at him when he came deep one time "higher, Joe, higher!"--but either way, it's a problem, and Arteta's probably telling him that precisely because he doesn't have the skill and personality to receive in the middle and play.

 

[Makingtrax]

Pepe looks dejected, like a player who just gets a few minutes here and a few minutes there as a substitute, no matter how well he plays in a cup final.

 

[kash2]

I think Reiss has been overcoached and instead of just instinctively whapping the ball goalwards, the keeps trying to play in a cultured way.

 

[Yousif Arsenal]

I dunno... some people rate Xhaka.

Xhaka don't misplace 6 yards passes that's what he good at lol

 

[Impact]

Nelson has been bright and has had our best chances but I still feel he is playing within himself. Want him to play with the handbrake off. Take on players and try things without worrying about losing the ball. He's too safe.

 

[Big Poppa]

Think Reiss has been quality.
Genuinely don’t see what anyone sees in Willock though.

There’d be a jizz fest in here if Özil made the reverse pass Willock did for the Pepe chance.

 

[Beksl]

Throw 30m at Leicester on deadline day for Maddison, if Auoar doesn’t materialize.

Unfortunately he'll go for 60m.

 

[Ashybashy86]

Leno 3 miles off his line there.... jeez.

And he was about to move forward even more. I'm still wondering why.

 

[Breezy]

Just get the ball to my boy Saka second half.

 

[AbouCuéllar]

Xhaka don't misplace 6 yards passes that's what he good at lol

That's why Barça, Madrid, and Bayern are after his signature.

 

[Yousif Arsenal]

Unfortunately he'll go for 60m.

More like 80m that's how it's work these days i prefer Aouar for 50m anyway.
