Top game this

 

[Murder on Zidanes Floor]

Arsenal manage to defend our press and leave three men up for the transition.

 

[lex talionis]

Shit half overall. Completely wank in midfield and the back

Nah, given the circumstances we did well.

 

[krazyrobus]

Shaw the BEAST!

 

[bosskeano]

Jeez Ben White likes the fake tan doesn't he? Or is that just his face in general

thought the same thing...what a clown

 

[crossy1686]

When is Arteta going to get carded?

He got a yellow before

 

[Jazz]

Thought that was a pen for us

 

[Tiber]

Weghorst might never score a goal for us, but he did look more useful than he did in his debut

 

[Dazzmondo]

Good defending Shaw

 

[Withnail]

Jaysus don't pass it to them in our box

 

[amolbhatia50k]

No replay of the penalty should? Looked a refereeing mistake.

 

[Murder on Zidanes Floor]

Fred now.

 

[Lyng]

Re. McTominay. He’s doing the best he can; it’s Eriksen questions need to be asked of as he’s been absolutely anonymous.

Nah he is basically alone in midfield. McT is useless

 

[DavelinaJolie]

Shaw's defensive play looks a.lot more solid these days.

 

[laughtersassassin]

I think both are playing decently, both offering options up front. This post ironically is probably doing the same thing, picking a favourite.

Both are having decent games today. Nothing crazy good but decent by both

 

[Massive Spanner]

Great game and nice to see the fight in the team. Don’t think we’ve looked second best at all.

 

[kouroux]

So what’s VAR got to say about that?

If the ball doesn't go out of the play, it seems like there is no way a pen would ever be awarded

 

[ForeverRed1]

I’d try get Fred into the team second half.. just chase them all over and press. We’re getting steamrolled through the middle.

 

[Redderp]

Even game. Not bad from us. Biggest difference is that Arsenal have that extra gear. You can just see they know their gameplan and each other. Much better off the ball run and they run at us with pace.

We struggle a bit with our off the ball movement and team pressure.

 

[Redfrog]

Have can people have so differing opinions on Antony's performance in this game?

He was good today. Solid.

 

[dwd]

We are getting screwed over here

 

[Sandikan]

I think both are playing decently, both offering options up front. This post ironically is probably doing the same thing, picking a favourite.

I think both have done fairly little, but Antony definitely a bit more.
Yet reading the comments it's like one is having a stormer and one a stinker.

 

[2cents]

We’ve been good apart from playing it out from the back.

 

[James35]

We need to score again, no way we don’t concede again with the midfield protection being offered and shoddy passing from the back.

 

[DJ_21]

Antony is physically incapable of going outside and crossing with his right foot. Rashy offers a lot more but he cant cross with his left either.
End result. No crosses

Even when Antony cuts inside and crosses with his left though it’s awful. No excuse for a professional footballer not being able to cross a ball.

 

[MichaelRed]

AWB has improved a lot but there's still no better duo than AWB and falling asleep for a backpost header.

 

[space]

Whatever the result, credit to Ten Hag. He needs to be backed big time

 

[bosnian_red]

Decent half. We've done well in possession but panicking a bit around their box and not making the most of our positions. Some sloppy play for their goal.

Antony has done really well!

 

[Adam-Utd]

weghorst has been excellent so far

think i’d like us to stop faffing around with free kicks and just knock it long, win the 2nd balls.

 

[amolbhatia50k]

Seriuosly, he's literally walking next to Shaw on the touchline and ref says nothing. feck me he's an annoying prick.

Shaw should 'mistakingly' tackle him

 

[Godfather]

Antony and Rashford did well. The rest was pretty wank. Weghorst was decent.

 

[saivet]

I've been happy with what I've seen from Antony that half. Few sloppy passes but think he's been bright.

Overall good half, pretty even but we are in this.

 

[Amarsdd]

How is that pen not even being looked at?
The same happended in the Crystal Palace game

 

[JTW95]

Not a bad half. Arsenal probably look more dangerous but we're very much in this. The silly goal we gave away is frustrating though. Got pinned in our own box when we went a goal up.

 

[lostcauz]

Rashford needs to be more involved in the press and track back quicker, everyone else seems to be doing it

 

[amolbhatia50k]

Arsenal manage to defend our press and leave three men up for the transition.

And done very little with it

 

[always_hoping]

Good quality half of football between two of the best teams in the league. Will we take a draw if offered now?

 

[TsuWave]

Neville sounds like an Arsenal fan

 

[Denis79]

Need to put in a third midfielder, we are getting overrun.

 

[Sylar]

weghorst has been excellent so far

Antony playing well too

We haven't taken advantage of Ben white being on a yellow and running at him
