[YeahBee]

I am not as negative of the overall game

They scored fluke goals and acted like the pigs they are

We had long periods of nice plays

Torreira played like two guys

 

[GoonerJeeves]

Regular yellow away kit - they'd been hammered.

 

[say yes]

Unai should be fuming that we didn’t win that. Inexcusable defending.

We’ve got the right manager but a lot of those players need upgrading.

 

[ptrcopp]

Think I need time in a soft room after that

 

[celestis]

Forwards get off way too easy for it too. Easier to score those than defend.

Mkhi and Auba should have scored , Mkhi missed an open goal from 2 yards. Harder to miss .

 

[A_G]

Actually gutted.. Once again our amateur defenders cost us

Why are they trying to shepherd the ball back to Leno, when he's so far away? Just take responsibility and kick it out for a corner, there's just no way Lingard should be scoring from this.

I'm still encouraged though, Emery is the real deal. Gone away to Stamford Bridge and Old Trafford and should've won, that's progress. He just needs another summer window and we'll be in great shape.

 

[El Granit-Coq]

Once again, our defence really shows that it still needs a lot of work.

I wish we could get Koulibaly but the most likely team to get him are Chelsea. Feels so good to not have to say anything about midfield... Absolutely sorted ATM.

Leno Il have patience for until he is recognised as world class. Kolasinac needs to wake up in attack, his greatest attribute is being a good attacking fullback, not the best defender but was amazing going forward. Needs to be more decisive in attack.

We aren't looking for any January transfers right? I think Emery wants to establish a template first before making new signings. We might have a busy summer or Emery will make my wishlist of Koulibaly.

 

[blaze_of_glory]

Yeah true, but inexcusable to gift them a goal like that, way more pissed at the defending than our lack of finishing.. 2 goals at OT is great(especially when we had the lead twice), we did our job on offense as a team imo.

Yeah fair enough. I always think forwards get far too much slack compared to defenders though. A defender makes one mistake in an otherwise perfect game and he's seen as the problem. A striker scores one of five good chances and he's hero. It's not a fair world.

 

[Makingtrax]

The positive . . . we got out of this sh!t hole without losing, and only two injuries.

 

[Taylor Gang Gunners]

News? Maybe back in 2015 or 2016 when I was telling everyone on here that fact. We're nearly in 2019 it's definitely not "news".

I gave you your props long ago. Let’s not milk it aye?

 

[say yes]

Unai emery’s red and white army haunted by the ghost of Wenger past.

 

[ptrcopp]

How the **** do those bastards keep getting allowed to kick us off the pitch even with the red-nosed bastard gone for ages?

Tbf it’s not just them, is it?

 

[Yousif Arsenal]

Lol manutd are 8th. Man they are such awful side to watch these days

 

[Sniper Mik]

We would have won that game had it been played on Saturday. United played a day earlier and against Southampton and they looked done.
Thankfully Wolves did us a massive massive favor by beating Chelsea so we're level on points with the top 4. Injury wise I think we'll be fine with Monreal and Koscielny coming back. But we need to get a CB and a forward in January. We'll get Top 4. No doubt about it for me.

 

[Taylor Gang Gunners]

Yeah fair enough. I always think forwards get far too much slack compared to defenders though. A defender makes one mistake in an otherwise perfect game and he's seen as the problem. A striker scores one of five good chances and he's hero. It's not a fair world.

You’re spot on.

As poor as the defending was, Mkhi and Auba especially, HAVE to bury those chances. They weren’t even difficult.

Auba has 10 league goals this season and it could’ve been like 15. He’s missed a few absolute sitters.!

Yeah have to keep this in mind over everything. This season is the start of the journey.

 

[Manberg]

I'm just worried about the injuries and the fatigue. Got a premier league match on Saturday but a lot of our first team are out of legs.

 

[yybecause]

Matteo grew into the game and I think he was great overall. Was telling my lady all day Moronho will go at him, but the kid responded brilliantly.

I’ll live with a point, cause we were clearly the better team. You know its 11 against 12(13) there every time

 

[dashsnow17]

Not really, I believe it will be much easier to play football when they bring a proper manager. Unfortutantely this was more Stoke-esque and Big Sam Bolton-esque than a big game.

Our players were dropping like flies, we played as if the ball was covered in butter and we endeavoured to do something stupid as soon as we took the lead. If it had been a half-normal game we’d have ran away with it.

Hell yeah the man's a monster so far. I can't believe how the expectations skyrocketed with thr fanbase (esp Wenger outers) from May till now.
