Emery's had a dreadful week.

But yeah the youngsters are not ready, but this will be valuable experience for them and with Emery and his video analysis they will take even more from this game than under Wenger.

The main problem tonight was the seniors not finishing their chances and defending badly, that is were our focus should be on.

 

[Sniper Mik]

Hopefully a proper loss like this one finally rattles Emery and the team in the right direction. The culprits of our poor performances are evident now, act on it.

He's not helping himself picking a bone with Özil or shunning Ramsey out of the league games.

 

[bingobob]

We are still dealing with Wengers legacy. Poor signings and poor squad management.

And it doesn't help when you're down to you have a threadbare squad to pick from.

Emery's had a dreadful week.

Welcome to paradi... Arsenal.

Is it worth losing Xhaka's influence in midfield just to guard against Medley or Pleguezuelo's inexperience in defence? I don't think so. Really baffled by Emery on this.

Maybe emery just don't trust our youth you saw Niles today he was completely s**t.

Is it worth losing Xhaka's influence in midfield just to guard against Medley or Pleguezuelo's inexperience in defence? I don't think so. Really baffled by Emery on this.

I would assume he knows Medley and Pleguezuelo better than any of us. It is somewhat rough to pit them against Kane, honestly. Obviously, it is his call, but we are hampered by our injuries in defence. I think that needs to be kept in mind.

 

[MLK79]

Right now it feels like we are the Manchester United of English football.

 

[Manberg]

Jamie Redknapp is clueless
Man is saying we lost because we took off Iwobi

 

[mharding033]

This squad is a mess.

 

[Goonerozil33]

Two goal kicks, win the second ball, pass it to a runner. Two goals... that’s all Tottenham did. I simply don’t understand why arsenal defence keep running back and allow the opposition player to be onside. Don’t let players pick a pass. How hard is that???

 

[blaze_of_glory]

We missed Flamini today truth be told.

 

[Camron]

Under Wenger we wouldn't have won this.

 

[redwhiteAustrian]

Yes! Let's try and get ourselves knocked out of the FA Cup in the third round too. Then we can concentrate on winning nothing.

Whatever floats your boat.

 

[hydrofluoric acid]

We are still dealing with Wengers legacy. Poor signings and poor squad management.

And it doesn't help when you're down to you have a threadbare squad to pick from.

If there are poor signings under two different managers it is probably the owners legacy. Spend some money Kroenke, you are old and gonna die soon. Life a little!

 

[Tir Na Nog]

 

[Taylor Gang Gunners]

We let Alli do the Walcott “2-0” pose. Hang ya heads in shame lads. Spuds have done us at home.

 

[rich 1990]

It's all well and good thinking Özil isn't right long term for what you're trying to do. You can't just discard him though until you get someone who can create that fits your profile. It's pretty crap from Emery.

 

[Maybe]

Hopefully a proper loss like this one finally rattles Emery and the team in the right direction. The culprits of our poor performances are evident now, act on it.

Yeah sure, how many times did we hear that under Wenger and it never happened

 

[Maddar16]

You cannot Auba without having wingers/ball carries to attract defenders away from him. Iwobi and mkhi always come inside and that leaves him without any space, and he isnt good at close control and dribbling like laca. Him and Laca can play with auba wide.

Laca on the other hand can come short and interchange with the midfield, more adept at being a focal point for iwobi and mkhi/Özil. This team desperately needs pacy ball carriers to stretch the game, and i believe its more important than a CB currently.
