By then they’ll likely be out of sight, or be able to sit back and dare us to break them down.Half time in our dressing room: "Ok lads, Plan A isn't working so we'll go with Plan A..."
Please get a clue. The influence of the manager is non existent. This is not my opinion, but a fact that has somehow escaped you, which is baffling considering how obvious it is. This is professional sports at the highest level. Confidence and composure comes from the manager.
Fade me fam…
It's baffling no one sees it's our chief issue EVERY time Matic plays. Just look at the times we've had the ball in defense and struggled to play out and show me a single occasion Matic was moving to receive the ball in tight space. If your defensive midfielder refuses to receive the ball in this area there is absolutely no way to play out from the back. The pressing team just splits the centrebacks and the fullbacks and we're fecked.
Yeah Arteta is already having a big impact in terms of style. With Ole it is the same style and little improvements with one year gone.Watching again our counters. Lingard both times passed the ball behind the player. Number fecking 10Terrible. Makes me feel sick. I need a drink.Arsenals best football of the season? Like they've been saving up for this game.
Well, we always fall apart when teams around us drop points, nothing new here.
Why would anyone fold wet toilet paper?
It's a new year, he saidWe had one shot that half btw
He really genuinely is, isn't he ? The guy cannot even pull off simple first time passes to a close teammate and he wants to try passes between defenders.Has Fred managed one successful pass?Never mind the result, what on earth was that on the pitch, also how can you be out battled by a most spineless team in last 10 years.Bt sport on my sky go account just cut out for some reason.
No intent, just like the rest of the team, and the clown in charge.They're desperate for the win and with our depleted midfield we gave them the free pass.
Haha. Too much FIFA at Ole's I think.
Right, because Ole didn't have 10 games unbeaten run and very good playing style at the begining.
And you call other fans clueless...
This post is ridiculous. He’s been there barely a couple of weeks. Coaching has nothing to do with this performance, this is pure adrenaline and passion. Coaching hasn’t come in to it
Yeah: I’m not quite sure how we were so shambolic and why Arsenal are splatting is so easily. In theory the team had the players to be more difficult to break down but we’re being cut into spaghetti.
This is pretty easy. With better players this shit will not happen. We need to go out hard finding some players. If we don’t, we don’t have the right ambition.
Knackered.
I turned off on 24 mins was pretty obvious then the none commitment on show from everyone was gonna lead to embarrassment
He did well to keep the header out, blaming him for that goal is just stupid.
Oh and is £400k the latest bs wage figure people are banding around to get angry over?Not turned up and lucky to be 2-0 down.
Probably can’t win now but we need a big second half performance to at least make a statement.
Matic is done, he’s finished, and he needs replacing this transfer window.
He's back to his best, he said.2 steps forward, 1 step back.Absolutely written in the stars that we would lose this game after Chelsea and Spurs dropped points earlier.
It's belief, we need to have belief. But to have belief, we need to have good actions that leads to goals, those players need to have a mental training first and foremost.we don't have a midfield
Jesse would need 10 years to even become half of what Rooney was under LvG.
I hate the majority of this squad so much.First thing Woody needs to do right after this match, no matter what happens in the second half is to give Ole the sack, get Poc in right now and recall Smalling if there is a clause to do that. There is still a chance to get into the top 4, but with Ole in charge.I’d prefer Pogba and Greenwood come on for Matic and Lingard. We wouldn’t look so bad if we stop passing without looking or using accuracy.Why so many here was so confident of winning I'll never know. United as said before the game lost this fixture 2-0 last year and have lost to loads of teams worse than Arsenal already this season.
The defending for both goals was school ground stuff and DeGea nearly gifted a 3rd goal. You simply can't trust this group of players they can and will lose to any team and lack leadership, Matic and Lingard among the worse performers.Get used to it lads. We are seemingly stuck with Ole.I should have put my house on Arsenal after the other results today. It was inevitable.
that’s a blessing.This is 100x worse than when we lost to bottomf-of-the-table Watford. We are absolute garbage
They weren't two goals up against you though
When the Ole in brigade ask why we want him out , this is exactly the reason. Can’t capitalize on a chance to make up top 4 . Selects shite players like Lingard and Shaw over performing players. And don’t get me started on the tactics.
It’s clear as day Arsenal want to play through the wings so don’t understand why our fullbacks keep tucking in and relinquishing all the space to them. Pathetic display, poor management.- Status
