Why do we have such slow starts to first halfs?
Why does it take untill the other team scores we play up tempo football?
Is it a motivational issue? Is Wenger complacent? Are the players complacent? Lack of concentration, lack of fitness?
Why do we take so long to get going? Are we that immature as a side? What are we a bunch of 12 year olds? For a team trying to be champions, we need to be more professional, i.e start games properly.
How many first halfs are we going to waste untill we learn our lesson?
It has become the story of our season, and im not just talking about today.
We will never win anything if we continue to start slowly to games. One day, we will not be able to come back from being behind in games..
You cant expect to win games by just showing up for the second half of games. A football match is 90mins, not 45!
Not long ago, we used to blitz teams 3-0 before the 20th min mark. I know it is unfair to compare this team to that one, as that was one of our greatest ever sides, but im sure we can use the same approach. We are good enough to do that this season imo.
