West Ham 0-2 Arsenal
I didn’t see it tbh. Thought they did absolutely nothing. Saka missed a few golden opportunities which only kept them in it to a degree.
Fair enough. Apart from the Kiwi challenge in the box, the threat was outside the box. Agree that the missed chances kept them in it.I didn’t see it tbh. Thought they did absolutely nothing. Saka missed a few golden opportunities which only kept them in it to a degree.
Yeah that's where he normally plays. At most he can play false 9Nwaneri doesn’t look like he has that explosive pace required for being a winger.
Like some said he’s more of 8-10 player. You think he has positional intelligence in the middle to play in there @MutableEarth
I meant in the way they ran at us and countered in that time. The xg shows that they didn't make the most of their slim chances. We missed about four chances before going 2-0 up and recorded our highest xg of the season. It's the eye test.
I'm also waiting on Watkins and Palmer. But on 62 so far.55 points with 45 mins of Watkins and Palmer remaining.
I think dropping Saka for KDB cost me the top 10 A-M league spot I was eyeing up
ThreatI think you're talking about "threat" because those counters didn't even lead to a chance/shot for West Ham. Sure, they had a bit of threat in the first 15-20 mins but then we completely took over the game and they didn't get a sniff from that point on.
-2 pts with respect to corresponding fixtures last season
White inverted today from right side
Maybe because of Kudus, who is more dangerous than Ben Johnson (who played LW today)
Who ?Can we talk about Kalvin Philips? He was so bad in this game. Did I imagine him squaring up to someone during the match as well?
I thought him and Rice would be the new Lampard and Gerrard after the Euros. It's a shame how his career has fallen off. Injuries have been cruel but the move to City was a big mistake. He looks done at the top level.Can we talk about Kalvin Philips? He was so bad in this game. Did I imagine him squaring up to someone during the match as well?
I was that guy tooAt 0-0 the commentator said " the lack of a CF is really hurting Arsenal"
Six goals later....
We just need to make sure that the commentator isn't right when we travel to Burnley next week. It took 70 minutes and an elite CF to see them off.At 0-0 the commentator said " the lack of a CF is really hurting Arsenal"
