Arteta next time we gift a goal.
Even the games I think we've played well it's been in spells, first half against Wolves and Leeds, a second half against Newcastle. Just can't put together any consistent 90 mins.I just don't get how you think this is true? Both EL games, FA cup game vs Southampton, Crystal Palace draw at Home, Villa away loss, loss to Wolves, City in the Prem was so poor as well. And even again today we did f*ck all for 70 minutes.
There is just no consistency in our performances.

We don't have the team that go 90 minutes just destroy other team it always 20-25min of good football other 60 min managing the game it's not us other teams are similarEven the games I think we've played well it's been in spells, first half against Wolves and Leeds, a second half against Newcastle.

I genuinely can only think of about 5 league games I've really enjoyed this season. Fulham opening day, Chelsea, West Brom, Saints away and Leicester last week. Leeds was decent as well but we where holding on a bit in the 2nd half.Yep, missed out the win vs Brighton which was awful to watch as well. Even some of the games we got red cards in we were already crap.
I couldn’t disagree more re. Wolves. We were brilliant until the bullshit Luiz incident.I just don't get how you think this is true?

I don’t get why it’s a must that we have the best players in the league but have to have this jabroni manager?
Don’t quite get that one tbh.
If we can't be expected to put together more than a few decent 90 mins per season then the culture ingrained in the club is worse than we've all realised.We don't have the team that go 90 minutes just destroy other team it always 20-25min of good football other 60 min managing the game it's not us other teams are similar
Same minus Chelsea, looked flukey af to me and I remember being scared of them at the end when all they did was spam crosses. But it's Chelsea so easy to understand why it was enjoyable.I genuinely can only think of about 5 league games I've really enjoyed this season.

The performance has improved from Novemberecember for sure. But during that time we were playing worse than in over 25 years. It would be almost impossible to continue being that bad with this squad. People judge the improvement based on our worst performances in decadesIm one of the few in this thread that are conflicted. I was totally arteta is a **** show around Christmas, but I have seen better performances since then. But results are still quite poor, even despite some performance improvement. We can't seem to manage to get any run of results under arteta, which is concern.
I don't think that it's because the league quality changing you'll need to manage game better don't give other team free chances and be clinical because modern game changed we won't be having 20 chances a game like maybe 7 years ago now you'll have 10 maximum and you have to clinicalIf we can't be expected to put together more than a few decent 90 mins per season then the culture ingrained in the club is worse than we've all realised.
- Xhaka almost out the door but kept him
- Willian over Pepe
- Can't get us playing good football consistently
- Saliba
- 10th
- First half of season
I'm tired
Yeah we did hang on a bit at the end to Chelsea but it was unexpected at the time for us to come out and really blow them away. Played really well first half against Wolves I'll add as well and Old Trafford of course was a nice win but it wasn't a great game on the eye.Same minus Chelsea, looked flukey af to me and I remember being scared of them at the end when all they did was spam crosses.

2/8 enjoyable performances on this second half of the season with the whole team fit (Saints, Leeds and Leicester all have a big injury list btw) and Auba back to scoring goals is pretty criminal anyway
What does my head in are fans saying “if you don’t see the progress we’ve made I can’t help you” or other garbage. We’ve scored 35 goals and we’re in 10th with 11 games to go and apparently I’m blind to so called progress this season has been a car crash. Simple as that
Yeah I'm not really meaning a decent 90 mins in terms of destroying a team like City do or we used to. I mean more like a nice comfortable 2 to 3-0 where we can restrict the opposition to any serious chances. I guess we where kind of on the verge of that today if we took our opportunities and then the Xhaka mistake. Don't think they had even a shot until that point.I don't think that it's because the league quality changing you'll need to manage game better don't give other team free chances and be clinical because modern game changed we won't be having 20 chances a game like maybe 7 years ago now you'll have 10 maximum and you have to clinical
Wolves I feel it was only the first 10 minutes, after that Wolves started pushing forward, controlled Saka so all we had after was Pepe individual moments and then Luiz happened.Yeah we did hang on a bit at the end to Chelsea but it was unexpected at the time for us to come out and really blow them away.
