PL | Newcastle vs Arsenal | Sunday, 14:00 BST | Sky Sports

[Hunta]

When he pulled back willock by the shirt?

Yeah.

 

[ASIF]

I counted 5 times Mkhitaryan gave the ball away cheaply and that bald **** shelvey almost scored from one.0-0 half time now get Pepe,Dani and lacazette on and win this thing.

 

[Jae]

On the plus side our young lads have given a decent account of themselves, some of our pros are killing us though.

Mkhitaryan... Absolutely terrible. He's done here I think.

Xhaka hasn't done much wrong but as a "future captain" ( ) he needs to get involved much more. Plus he slows our play down so much.

Auba hasn't been great but he's feeding off scraps.

Xhaka> Cebellos
Nelson > Lacazette (Auba out to the left)
Mhki > Pepe

 

[YeahBee]

Xhaka is being criticised because he is playing like ****... as usual. The blinkers some people have for him is really something. At least everyone agrees Mkhi is ****.

I would say a mixed bag by most players overall. Willock has been the best and Guendouzi has been decent especially as he's defending alone in MF.

Do you even know who is who?

Gwen is all over the place, passes opposition, is like a fly you dont even have to swat away and is so positionally off it is ridic!

Sometimes it looks like he is man marking when WE have the ball ffs

 

[Mo Britain]

Got to bring on Pepe and/or Laca soon and Ceballos and/or Torreira. There's three points to be won here and we may miss them later on if we don't.

 

[Yousif Arsenal]

Guendouzi Willock look good to be fair Nelson look nervous he losing the ball alot

 

[Eduardo_da_Silva]

Disgusting football.

People were slating Elneny for backpassing too much, but all Xhaka did today is backpass.

Too many mistakes, too much controled football.

Emery wont last with this.

 

[Hunta]

Nelson will get a red, it’s how opening days go for us.

 

[North5]

wow...
Emery out on Monday if he keeps him on

 

[Debre-Zeyit]

I hope this is the last game mkhi will be starting past his time.

 

[Ceballinhos]

tears

 

[Ashybashy86]

The game is there for the taking, but of course, Mhki.
Willock and Guendouzi have been good.

 

[bingobob]

Still in pre season mode. Gotta get that sorted asap with everyone winning their games. We cant be the first team to fall behind. United and Chelsea both let off as theyre playing each other.

 

[Wrighty4eva]

I don't get this formation from Emery, only tried willock as an attacking midfielder once in preseason season he looked miles better deeper, and starts him there (attacking) for the first game of the season, some if his decisions are just weird sometimes.

 

[Sniper Mik]

What the fu*k is Mkhi in this side for? He doesn't score, doesn't assist, doesn't link up play, doesn't defend. Utter utter garbage

 

[Hunta]

tears

Pathetic performance, should never have stats like that as a PL footballer, never mind one on his wages.

 

[Morning_woody]

Amazing how people watch the game differently. For some G'doozie has been excellent while for others piss poor. Same goes for just about every player on the pitch, except for Mikhi. I feel like a schizophrenic and we're only past 1st half. Ffs

 

[ptrcopp]

Didn't took long for you guys to start moan

70% position but lack of chances of course when Ceballos Özil laca and pepe all will be fun

?

We've been boring - its what I said!

 

[blaze_of_glory]

Mou is refreshing to listen to as a pundit.

 

[2Smokeyy]

Nelson will get a red, it’s how opening days go for us.

Mkhi is on a yellow too.

I’d bring on Laca and Ceballos ASAP. We can’t be a man down in this sort of game.
