Why did he take Lindelof off? Was he injured or did he really just want to put Evans on?
We were about 2 inches away from winning it.
How fecking spawny are Arsenal though?! Absolutely fecking detest them
They will finish above us this year.Arsenal give me the vibes of some cringe college football team. Some cringe mascots and a shite team song would top it all off. They'll win nothing again this year. Neither will we probably looking at City.
We were a few inches from a brilliant away result and played decent considering all of the injuries we have.
What is the worst thing could happen to our defence this season? To have varane and lisandro injured early... and thats exactly what happens after only 4 games
Clams, why you gotta do me dirty like that?! You’re supposed to say: brilliant observation, Wingy! I thought we had an agreement.that’s the thing about him, so much of what he does is hard to notice but for me, he was fantastic for them today
I agree injuries are hampering us but the first half was not because of injuries. Moreover it's not like our first 11 were setting the world alight with their amazing football. My biggest gripe is we have no semblance of control any match, no matter who we play. I can understand the loss considering they took the lead at the very end but it's not like they were not controlling the game till then. They didn't have too many chances but barring the last 20 mins we were barely pushing them either. Rasmus coming in would be huge I feel, but we have to start controlling the tempo a lot better if we intend to improve our play and our performances and results.I think what you're saying here would apply to the first half. I thought we were shite overall, and didn't get our foot on the ball and couldn't string two passes together.
But I thought we played well in the second half and was finishing the game quite strong. They were extremely fortunate. That was not a 3-1 game. No chance. One of the tightest offside calls you'll see, and a deflected goal for them. And we finished the game with Johnny Evans and Harry-fecking-Maguire as our CB pairing.
We're getting ravaged by injuries.
Not only disingenuous but also flat out wrong.Antony was a good outlet down the right when they pressed harder and he drew fouls and kept possession well. He is also pressing very effectively and winning the ball a lot, not just today but so far this season. I think Hojlund will enjoy playing with him.
He tracked back twice and made 2 key interceptions.
Calling him a passenger is disingenuous.
Garnacho’s finish was ace but if it stood it would have been a real smash n grab. Arsenal were the better side throughout and played much more positive football.
We padded the possession stats by dangerously twatting around with it at the back.
Gutting but a fair result.
Wish we would practice some sort of attacking patterns at Carrington.
Uhh no we couldn't.Last season we could at least score goals. This season we are worst as a team. If things keep going this way, ETH won't be here on Christmas.
He didn't, his level is so low that a 5/10 looks good.He had a good game today
everyone up field and evans and maguire at CBturned it off the moment rice's shot went in, how on earth did they score a third
So many people in match day thread predicting a loss then delighted to be proved right. Sitting at home hoping Arsenal would score no doubt so they could jump on and say told you so. Pathetic.
We were much better today than we have been. Still quite a way to go. Hojlund will give us much more up too. Excited to see it. Could see glimpses today.
Sat off way too much towards the end but it’s not as shocking a performance as some people are trying to make out.
Is it safe to assume we are already out of the Premier League title race?
While we had more possession at times it seemed Arsenal didnt care as they didnt think we could hurt them. We are terrible at building momentum in the last third. We are also so lightweight defensively in midfield. Just a mess2-0 defeat to Spurs, 3-1 defeat to Arsenal.
And some people think we’re not a poor team. We have NO midfield at all.

By his teammate fouling our man who was supposed to cover himHow does Rice get that much time to take the the ball and hit it in the box where we've everyone back and it's the last minutes?
Maybe I got carried onUhh no we couldn't.
I know people are gonna crucify that performance especially after that scoreline, but I thought we gave Arsenal a proper game. We lost by a deflection off of our 5th choice CB and didn't win because of a marginal offside. Arsenal are better than us in possession, but our gameplan was solid and on another day it works.
If Martinez is out for any length of time, we're screwed. I think it's time for Casemiro or McT in defense as Lindelof and Maguire just bring the worst out of each other. I'm dreading the game against Brighton already.
I'll end it on a positive note, Hojlund looks great. I know he didn't get a real chance at goal, but his physical presence showed what we've been missing. Lovely flick for the Garnacho goal too. Gonna leave the Caf for a few days, don't need the reactionary threads alongside the usual media narrative.
Never in it. Shocking squad depth, too many of the wasters who have let us down previously still at the club and starting matches, and in my opinion a pathetic transfer window that solved very little and just added more of the sameIs it safe to assume we are already out of the Premier League title race?
not seen more than one angle with the offside and no lines. for such a close call, you'd expect a longer look. I think he may be right - he's definitely right about the foul on evans. not so sure abuot the rasmus penaltyWrong on the Garnacho shout but absolutely correct on the other two. I had completely forgot about the Hojlund incident.
