PL: Arsenal v Manchester City | August 12th, 2018 16:00 BST | Sky Sports

[Fewtch]

Twice now that Lacazette won the ball back fairly

Better presser and a better striker than Ramsey. Not a difficult decision

 

[scytheavatar]

Bench Özil next week for Iwobi. He deserves it.

 

[SA Gunner]

So you’d be happy for us to lose 5 league games in a row but its ok because it gives us time to “get our **** together”?

Its the reality of our situation mate, we are rebuilding and for that we need time.

At least we are starting from the proverbial bottom, and not falling out of the top four anymore.

We need time to understand the new system, and then add quality players to that system. I have no doubt that if the manager is given time and we back him financially, we will be more powerful a unit than Liverpool and Sp**s are today. Emery is just that good a manager for me.

 

[CJJ]

Guendouzi looks tired.

 

[North5]

Sokratis has been alright actually

 

[Hope]

Everyone on their heels ffs

 

[al-Ustaadh]

Why not both? Xhaka has been useless, and Guendouzi is clearly more suited in a more advanced position.

Guendouzi and Torreira would’ve been fine with me. Need serious mobility in midfield against the likes of City and Liverpool.

And I think Guendouzi is too good of a ball winner to not be payed deeper.

 

[razörist]

Cech is finished

 

[Mitch]

AMN was great before he went off. Sokratis isnt giving opposition players space and winning everything in the air. Lichtsteiner good both going forward and defensively.

No one else has really put in a postitive performance for us.

Xhaka, Guendozi, Özil and Bellerin have been poor.

 

[Gooner Zig]

Mustafi has been pretty decent today though I'm judging from a very low bar

 

[Yousif Arsenal]

Nobody want to shoot how we'll score?

 

[North5]

Guendouzi looks tired.

had to play alone in midfield for 70 mins.

 

[OnlyOne]

We'll be good this season. People over reacting WAY to hard atm.

 

[Godwin1]

Mustafi has been pretty decent today though I'm judging from a very low bar

No you're right he has been fairly solid.

 

[MLK79]

He couldn't risk Ramsey tbf but looking at the burst of speed Torreira has,we may have well played Elneny. Intelligence and pace in midfield helps and I'm not sure Ramsey would have tracked back quick enough he he had stayed on.

As I see it, Ramsey and Torreira has to be in midfield if they're fit. As for Ramsey tracking back, he's always been good at that. Always covered more ground than anyone else. I don't think that would be the issue. It would have to be he's just afraid that Ramsey would pull up if he's played too much.

 

[Ceballinhos]

tbf if it wasn't for the opportunities we've gifted them we were pretty solid.
and it easily could have been 2-2

against the best team in England.

So it's pretty encouraging tbf.

 

[Kroket]

Sokratis has been a massive plus for me, not nearly the calamity I was told he would be.

Lichtsteiner very good as well considering the situation.

 

[Mraven]

Sokratis PotM from our side. Been solid

 

[Notorious Big]

Leno looks like Ter Stegen

 

[Hope]

Work hard more next game. Come on.

No Xhaka ffs
