PL: Arsenal vs Chelsea | Sunday 29th December | KO: 14:00 GMT | Sky Sports

[Bergkamp1988]

Chill guys Arteta's gonna win us the title. He's Pep number 2. His oily hair and handsome face is more than enough to tide us through COYG #ImaKroenkeSheepAndLuvingIt

Really committing to that douchebag role

 

[Tourbillion]

Progress in the first half, definitley, very encouraging.

But seeing how hard we have to work just to hang onto a one goal lead is exhausting. It's not a blueprint for actual progress. We need an entirely new eleven. That just won't happen, so where's the hope?

 

[tap-in]

**** through the whole game really...

I'm supporting Arteta but he needs to bench Laca if my support is to continue. I'm sick of seeing Auba back in our penalty area and we suddenly break with fvcking Laca as our CF!

 

[shooklivers]

Mikel bottled the subs today. Özil should've never came off, Guendouzi offered nothing and was the worst player on the pitch today, Lacazette was not much better.

Key difference, Lampard saw his side struggling and changed it immediately, Mikel on the contrary saw it out and we paid the price. Let's be honest, despite the ref f*cking us, we were thoroughly outplayed since the 35th minute. I mean we barely touched the ball in the second half and you wait until 75min to make a change? Pathetic.

All in all, definitely some positives, Torreira, Özil and Auba were phenomenal but we gifted away three points.

I agree and was telling my son that Lampard is going for broke with the subs. This was a Pepe game for me

F*CK CRAIG PAWSON

 

[redwhiteAustrian]

The moment Chambers went off, we lost our grip on Chelsea and in the end their superior fitness levels got them all three points.

Arteta has a mountain to climb, we all knew that before.

 

[Makingtrax]

I'd argue the manager was poor with his substitutions. Luck was also a factor in losing Chambers who was bright and assisted Auba.

Luck was also losing Kola and Tierney at LB!

 

[TakeChillPill]

This is 100% Artetas fault. So many tired legs and he refuse to change until After! They scored! ****ing dreadful

We were defending really well a Leno blunder, poor ref cost us the game.

 

[heavy metal gooner]

It’s clear laca has lost his head and dosent wanna be here. Leno dear god. And ok Jorginho should have been gone. I literally have no words for how we lost that. Just totally demoralised like cba to even get angry that’s how bad it is

 

[MLK79]

The squad doesn't have the stamina at all. We've looked less fit than our opponents all season, worst part is I think the fitness guys didn't go with Emery.

Emery had everyone underperforming. These guys used to run around for 90 mind easy easy back in the day.

 

[El Granit-Coq]

Leno made one mistake, the other is down to Mustafi

 

[tap-in]

Dire. Needs to be sold

Yeah, as I was saying last summer!

 

[Wrighty4eva]

So many positives from this game, Not upset with this loss, the board need to get off there asses and support Arteta during the January transfer window, none of this business cant be done bullsh1t, Identify targets and bid we are in desperate need for some proper defenders at this club it's beyond a joke.

 

[Malky]

Just me that thinks we lost a hold of the game when Özil went off again?

 

[MikeVinna]

We need a CM to replace Xhaka, Guendo is not ready to be the main guy.

Yes I’ve said it before but we have no one like Xhaka in our squad. He’s not that good but he is the type of player we need. Someone that can pass it from deep..

 

[blaze_of_glory]

This is a very crushing defeat psychologically. I fear for the United game

I think we’ve already gone past that tbh. This is just one more disappointment

 

[Sniper Mik]

With Chambers out we need an emergency Centreback along with a central midfielder

 

[Mohamed7]

Just seen Mustafi’s defending for Abraham’s goal

He is a disgraceful player. You cannot say he's a defender. He let Abraham turn and run at him. He should have fouled him and sacrifice the yellow card.

If that was not enough, he then ball-watched and let loose the only player he was marking.

We are desperate for a center back on 01/01/20.

 

[GDeep™]

Torreira, Mustafi, Leno, Lacazette with some crucial mistakes today

 

[Furious]

Nelson was dirt poor again. No idea why Arteta is persisting with him.

Going by how the 2nd went subbing him off for Pepe wouldn't have made much difference anyway. We sat way too deep, and couldn't string two passes together.
