FA Cup: Third Round| Arsenal vs Leeds United | Monday 6th January | KO: 19:56 | BBC One

That dropping midfielder in their buildup is giving us trouble. Guendouzi following him is creating that space for the ball into midfield.

Its a battle out there.

Gotts and Phillip's both been very good. They are moving all the time and dragging people out of possession.

 

[Yousif Arsenal]

How that not foul. Come on Taylor ffs

 

[ScotsGooner89]

Generally a terrible performance, but guendouzi is actually doing my head in. I used to be on his hype train but all I see now is flailing arms and a huuuuge lack off movement.

 

[bojed]

We're playing against the Barca of English football

 

[gunner4lyfe]

It’s because they has Loco Bielsa as manager... they play really good actually. Not an easy team only because they are in Championship. They are playing at PL level an intensity

Oh im not questioning their quality as a championship team. Im questioning their quality to ours. We look like we should be below them on their table.

 

[yorch44]

That is Bielsa football for you'll.

Exactly... I wanted here... best manager for me

 

[Jasard]

Just watch Douzi off the ball, bit of a bellend to be honest

 

[Synical]

The old Arsenal would be losing by now. This is new Arsenal. We'll break their hearts in a minute

Love your blind optimism :rofl:

 

[Bradpiff]

This is a final for Leeds, we are just going through the motions

 

[Plutarch]

Some very good defending from Guendouzi in our own penalty box there. But generally we're playing badly.

 

[Wrighty4eva]

Can't get a decent stream to save my life, from the sound of things I'm not missing much...

 

[Yousif Arsenal]

Özil man come deep ffs

 

[carlito'sway]

Exactly... I wanted here... best manager for me

Love Bielsa but he is too difficult of a character to deal with.

 

[dashsnow17]

Leeds play like we used to play, they make me more nostalgic for the old Arsenal than the current Arsenal do.

 

[Mohamed7]

Back 3 not working, confident Miki will change it soon

It is back four but Sok is way too deep for a right back. Pepe is not getting any support down that flank. I don't see any RB on the bench, unfortunately.

Midfield is not working. Guenzy and Xhaka cannot play middle together.

 

[GunnerUK]

Being outplayed @ home to a Championship side, Pitiful

 

[HBL]

I mean we're getting pumped, this is like peak Emery. Hard to single out any players because they've all done nothing, we're gonna struggle to keep the ball when the Leeds keeper is better on the ball than our full backs

 

[field442]

Just watch Douzi off the ball, bit of a bellend to be honest

Spent the last 5 minutes specifically watching him off the ball. Shocking.

 

[OnlyOne]

Baby faced Ben White with the sleeves.

 

[Preacher]

Sokratis in RB position is one of the worst decisions I have ever seen. Arteta is truly a hipster.
