    Ridiculous. I don’t know whether to laugh or cry. Some genuinely terrible, terrible performances. I didn’t even think Amad was having a good game up until the 82nd minute! Zirkzee has to start ahead of Hojlund - he did more in 5 minutes than...
  • Garnacho’s decision making and final ball is shocking. I’m glad Amorim isn’t wasting any time in making his mind up on players.
  • dogwithabone replied to the thread David Raya.
    I’ve watched those penalties back and yes he does go a touch early but I’m unsure he goes early enough for the taker to change his direction in most cases. I assume Zirkzee did pick up on this because his wasn’t a great penalty if that’s where...

    I’m going to give Dalot a bit of leeway with that second yellow. Yes, it was a yellow and a subsequent red but that ball was there to be won and he had every right to go for it, he was easily favourite to get there. He’s ended up making a mess of...
  • Yeah but the world is still watching and referees will know they can’t perform as badly as yesterday and get away with it. I’ll be surprised if Madley isn’t dropped by his superiors for the next round of games - everyone saw the utter ineptness...
  • Looking a really good player. We’ve really missed someone who gets involved in all the skirmishes, like Keane did. He’s a great age too, not someone here to wind down his career. Proper signing, proper player.
  • Both Fletcher and McTominay, similar sort of players to Collyer, took time to properly settle down. I think the fact Amorim trusted him ahead of Casemiro amongst others speaks volumes.

    Look at the fight we suddenly have with no Rashford and no Casemiro preening around the pitch. Every player putting his body on the line, how many shots have we blocked in these past two games!

    To be fair, by the time Zirkzee was on the game was a lot more open, a lot more space to get on the ball. He did well though, spreads the play well and can link the play and pick decent passes. I just don’t feel confident with him in goal scoring...
  • Maguire superb, having a great game.
  • Get rid. He’s just not a very good central defender. Probably due to his height but he tends to jump into the attacker rather than try to attack the ball and his tackling is so impetuous, a foul waiting to happen every single time he gets tight...
  • You’re right, they’re making basic defending sound so scientific. There’s no secret to Arsenal’s set piece success - it’s about the delivery and a big man getting across the front post. As simple as it sounds for a footballer to do, most can’t...
