Harry sure is used to getting away with fucking murder, isn't he

Zinny on for Kiwior is an interesting pick, but an understandable one

[–] [email protected] 3 points 10 months ago (3 children)

People needed a reminer why Zinny starts apparently lol

[–] [email protected] 4 points 10 months ago

To be fair, Tomi woulda been nice for this game but I assume he isn't ready.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 10 months ago

Yeah. I think starting Kiwi for the defensive stability was good, but it obviously didn't pan out and it seems the midfield presence is going to be much more important at the moment.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Yeah, I've been in that camp if I'm honest. Mostly his defending not being as good as others in the squad and his injury record for us. But what he brings in experience and skill in other areas I'm sure most teams in the PL would die for.

I still want him in the team, I still think he's invaluable and still has a part to play.

I think he's our best leftback overall, just that defence can be concerning when coming up against like, Salah type just best in the world wingers lol. He's good, just not amazing at defending, but everything else easily makes up for it, other than injury proneness but that's just part and parcel of being an Arsenal fullback not named White.

Ok now that i'm watching the highlights at half time, what the fuck was our ENTIRE DEFENCE doing on that play with Gnabry?? nearly every single one fucked up??

[–] [email protected] 5 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I think because it began with Gabriel, there was no one to take charge - Kiwior was pre-flustered and everything fell apart from there

[–] [email protected] 3 points 10 months ago (1 children)

idk that it even began with Gabriel, Raya was really close for no reason at the start which is kinda part of why Gabriel went the way he did

[–] [email protected] 3 points 10 months ago

True, he came out but Gabriel waved him off telling him not to come for it. Maybe he was trying to tell Raya to stay back, but at that point the damage was done

[–] [email protected] 5 points 10 months ago

also very stupid penalty to give up from Saliba.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 10 months ago (4 children)

Oh my god I thought that was gonna get headed in. Woulda been offside but whew

[–] [email protected] 4 points 10 months ago

Starting strong, let's push on.

I fucking love you Trossard!

[–] [email protected] 5 points 10 months ago (1 children)

What is Kane even doing? He's just kind of running at people but never really challenging for the ball.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 10 months ago (3 children)

And running into people xD

Cards for tackling Saka? Is this christmas?

Something I've noticed a few times - when we put a cross into the box, multiple people will go for it, which gives the defender an easy place to put the ball since soe much space is vacated. I'd rather see Jesus and Havertz take turns challenging in the air and the other watch for the second ball.

That should be another card, Christ he chopped him like a tree

[–] [email protected] 4 points 10 months ago

I feel a late goal coming, cmon!

[–] [email protected] 4 points 10 months ago (7 children)

Kane, can't fucking score for England or to win anything but can score to fuck over us. Honestly one of the most frustrating players despite at the same time also being definitely an amazing striker.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 10 months ago (1 children)

In fairness, it was a bit of a lull in the action. Annoyed that City are already up, though

Yknow wha'ts the most annoying part of this? we've dominated the stats. Idk about how the actual game has been but we've dominated basically every stat besides xG and that's cuz we gave up a pen lmfao

I love me some Trossard. I feel like he's the best impact player for us when coming in off the bench

Even though we're behind, Jorginho and Gabi doing their little warmup jig makes me laugh

[–] [email protected] 4 points 10 months ago

Time for Arteta to set the efogging standards

[–] [email protected] 3 points 10 months ago

My heart dropped into my stomach, my God

[–] [email protected] 3 points 10 months ago

Also naturlich Harry gets a penalty against us

[–] [email protected] 3 points 10 months ago

The obligatory Harry Kane pen

[–] [email protected] 3 points 10 months ago

Lol they aren't even trying to press our centerbacks :D

[–] [email protected] 3 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I'm liking most of the refereeing. Maybe a little card happy which could balloon as the half goes on

I have faith in our boys but I'm not sure I like the idea of having to go to Munich a goal down.
