Awful refereeing. Schlupp and Cahill should both have been sent off.
Goal aside, this a constant theme of Artetas football. Individual brilliance from a Saka back heel and a Tierney cross with a right footed Pepe volley. It masks what actually goes on. Throwing away halves of football through impotence.
The full backs are not progressive in their passing at all. We never play the ball inside out of fear. Tierney particularly always passes back to Gabriel or Holding. The pass is always on inside between the lines.
Only Partey, Pepe, Auba, ESR and Saka look to make something happen. Everyone else is passive.
Also. Why do our players take so many touche on the ball. I counted us moving the ball along the back four. Both Gabriel and Holding had 5 touches.
Elneny does him a favour there. Think the majority of top flight footballers would have made more of that.
Pepe got sent off for less when he "headbutted" a player.
How is he doing?Thanks for the summary, I missed the 1st half. I had a choice of having the Arsenal game on while teaching - opted to continue watching Newcastle to watch Willock instead.
I hear Kane is crying? There's a Sp**s fan in the mandem group chat so I don't know if guys are on the wind up.
No Europa please
Had what looked like his best game. Had a few errant touches but he was confident, and very good on the dribble. Got another good goal and had 2 other shots on target. He's really becoming a proper B2B player - just needs to have more responsibility in possession. He had 100% pass accuracy today.How is he doing?
You’ve got the wrong end of the stick. Focus on Willian.@Trilly Why you on Tierney's nuts? He provided a superb cross assist. You'd be on your knees with your tongue up Özil's batty if he did that when he was here stealing a living.
The new Europa league format isn’t that bad. Not as many **** teams.
Think SK___ looks promising, offering out strangers on the internet is a good start.Don’t see a young GDeep about still.
