    He's off the game every match but normally gets on the end of something.
    Agreed, he's dropping way too deep for my liking tonight. We're lacking pace up top. People say Martial's been poor etc this season but with he and Mkhitaryan in the attack we look completely transformed.
     
    Decent half for the most part. We are fully controlling the game and creating a few chances. Just need to tighten up some of the easy passes, and then look to quicken things up.
     
    Can't blame the formation or game plan. We've struggled the past 3 seasons against teams who park the bus.

    Just don't have the players to break it down, mind you not many do.
     
    One of those games, if we score one Rostov will have to immediately start pushing forward and we could easily score two or three more.

    Just a question of whether we can get that first goal..
     
    Kinell, as under par as Martial has been this season...we've not looked this LVG since LVG.

    The crowd are bored. As shit as they are today I can see why.

    This formation isn't us. Not sure what Jose's thinking is. Even Lingard could open it up a little here.

    Get shot of Smalling or Bailly please. An absolute waste of time having a 3rd CB if none of them can play ball.
     
    Yes pogba looking lively towards the end. Good enough performance by the team tbh. Robbie savage keeps urging our cb to push up like we have to score tonight :wenger:
    Maybe just maybe we don't want to rely on away goals at home to fecking Rostov :lol:
     
    Not much to really say about that first half.

    Feels like we see the same game every week.

    Loads of possession, waste good chances, their keeper plays well. Same old same old.
     
    For those not enjoying the performance, just be thankful we aren't getting the horror show we had last week...
     
    Don't get the moaners. We've been in complete control during the first half. Just been unable to score. Good tactics, good effort from the players.

    We are playing bloody Rostov who are terrible so being in control isn't really enough. Also it only takes one stupid mistake and we are going out.
     
    I was thinking it would be like this. They have literally eleven men in their own third.

    We have to be careful because they could get a fluke goal.
     
    So against so no name team defending with 10 men behind the ball at OT, we decided to go with extra defender system...

    I mean seriously, is it the best we can do?

    And I thought our 3 5 2 system looks good but makes no sense to play it now.
     
    i feel like im watching a different match to everyone else in this thread. pogba has been quite good. had one bad touch and misplaced one pass but people are saying he's been awful/poor
    Yep, I'm quite surprised by the reaction here, I enjoyed that half, especially Mata, Pogba and Valencia, although our conversation rate is atrocious as usual.
     
    Think some of you football genius' need to take a break! This is a difficult game to win they have 11 men behind the ball ffs.

    We are playing quite well we just need to be more clinical.
     
    I hope we are patient in the 2nd half and don't go long like we did in the 2nd half against Bournemouth. Rostov look well drilled to defend. Tire them out and we would eventually score.
