Carabao Cup | Arsenal Vs Norwich | 24/10/2017 19:45 BST

[Rex Stone]

Who do you guys want next round from:
Bournemouth
Bristol City
Leicester
Manchester City
Manchester United
Chelsea/Everton
Tottenham/West Ham

I want a home draw against Bournemouth or Leicester, the other clubs are either likely to work very hard and kill us because we become complacent (Bristol City) or will likely knock us out.

Away at Man City. No fear, gonna give em a pasting.

Struggle to see us getting past any of the other big teams considering how poor we looked and the fact that having a game two days later stops us from playing any first teamers. Might have a chance at home if we have a more or less full squad to choose from as it means players like Per and Welbeck can be used.

Yes then we can call it Nekitah Nelson show.

Our seniors played piss poor. I'm not sure how many final nails in the coffin it's possible to have, but this was another one for Walcott.

On the flipside, we have to give praise to our youngsters but also the club I think. Look at the Man City squad that faced Wolves. In the whole matchday squad they only had 3 players I'd class as youth. They brought on Walker, Stones, De Bruyne and Sane. That's what, near 200m worth of players?

We've given debuts to 7 youngsters already this season and we've won with them. It won't get wide media praise, but we should praise it ourselves.

A lot of under/ poor performances tonight from too many of our players. Walcott and Giroud were anonymous. Elneny, Coquelin, Iwobi and Holding were very poor, sloppy and error prone.

The only positive individual performances were from Wilshere, AMN and of course Eddie.

I have to disagree. Wilshere was so incredibly desperate to impress that he ruined many attacks with early passes. Wilshere needs to develop that part of his game.
I think Giroud was lacking in passing and positioning as well. Iwobi tried creating moves off him several times and Giroud was sub-par in those situations.

I agree on seniors being lackluster and youngsters coming in and showing higher level. Macey looked great, steady, and calm. And every time we added a youngster to our attack, it improved.

After being brought on as a substitute in the 89th minute. C’mon it’s Wenger we’re talking about.

loool, killer mentality

too much information. Children might be reading this.

I meant something along the lines of running outside screaming, you’ve exposed yourself you dirty sex pervert.

Or more likely:

May 2020: Nketiah wins the Champions League for Man City following his move in the summer.
Meanwhile Arsène Wenger and Arsenal miss out on the Champions League again, hit by a late Watford counter attack after Olivier Giroud (too slow) and Theo Walcott (offside) had both spurned presentable opportunities.

 

[Penn_]

What’s going to happen when we reach the latter stages of the EL or even the FA cup because Giroud and Walcott taking two of three attacking spots just doesn’t work.

Hopefully the rumours are true and Theo leaves in January. Akpom and Nketiah were far better when they came on.

Can't wait to see the sanity of this forum if Wenger stays three more years
