I fell asleep end of first half and wake up to us just scrapping through. We were actually losing as well. The ceballos mistake is purely down to our coaching. Any hesitation go back and start over. It’s amazing how often we pass backwards. Arteta survives, he’s still an incompetent clown
I don't think I've ever seen a mistake that could be considered *less* down to coaching.
Ceballos was basically fielding a rugby box kick with a guy closing him down and muffed it up. Nothing there was due to systems or positioning or tactics or anything like that. It was an awkward ball and our player made an awkward play on it. **** happens.
The negative play from Xhaka/Elneny etc in midfield is definitely an issue, but this wasn't that sort of play.
