PL: Brighton and Hove Albion vs Arsenal | December 26th | KO: 17:15 | Sky Sports

[Godwin1]

Think the defensive errors are ingrained from the later Wenger years. Need a whole new defense to cut this stuff out.

 

[SA Gunner]

I HATE seeing such goals conceded.

We need to find a way to deal with this long ball over technique, which teams have now built into their approach against us.

 

[Gooner Zig]

I'm not too fussed about our slow build up after the first goal, Brighton were allowing us to walk about in our half.

As usual we've undone ourselves with horror defending. Even just a marginal improvement defensively would have us firmly entrenched in the top 4.

 

[Preacher]

Literally hasn't put a foot wrong. Been well involved.

In this case, you have too low expectations sir.

 

[LG10]

Penny pinching fc strikes again, lich’s legs are gone.

We’ve gifted another awful team a nothing goal. This Brighton line up is horrendous, no pace or quality.

 

[El Duderino]

That's a single clean sheet in the last 12 and 9 goals from individual errors on the PL, most in the league.

 

[ptrcopp]

Feel sorry for Emery... Having to work with all this cheap players we signed in the summer.

Especially Torreira.

 

[progman07]

It's lovely to see those through balls provided by Gouenduzi and Torreira, awesome first touch by Auba, really unlucky not to be at 2-3 goals already.

 

[Sobotka]

This is really poor.

 

[Godwin1]

Playing Xhaka + Guen has never worked so far. Not a suprise at all it doesn't today. Guen and Xhaka are way to similar.

It shouldn't make them play like **** though I get that they are similar. They still have Torreira with them to shield the back four.

 

[squallman]

Not... Diaby was very talented and full of technical ability. And super strong, actually the injury record is what finished him... this kid has nothing of Diaby... we wish he would

You're overrating Diaby, lad was one of the more brain dead players we had at the time, which is saying something given we had Bendnter, Clichy and Almunia in the team.

 

[hydrofluoric acid]

Especially Torreira.

Torreira comes out good this transfer window... Sokratis slightly below okay. The others have just proven to be crap but Guendozy still has huge talent but is playing way to much atm.

 

[Yousif Arsenal]

That's a single clean sheet in the last 12 and 9 goals from individual errors on the PL, most in the league.

That will cost us place in CL if we didn't strength the defence in jan

 

[Manberg]

Alex Scott blaming Özil for the goal

 

[m-due]

Guendouzi’s tantrums are getting annoying now. Lich needs a dress down from Unai. Not clinical enough up front. They are killing us on those counters.

 

[2Smokeyy]

Xhaka has no passing range too. He always playing safe. I still feel he’s holding us back.

Auba & Laca are making the runs, he’s too scared to play the killer pass over the top. Fabregas always used do it.

Torreira did it once for Auba and it worked.

 

[Beany]

Should be 3 nil up.

And can someone please turn Lichsteiner into glue at half time?

Can’t see us failing to score at least one more but with this defence and level of midfield cover, anything can happen.

 

[ptrcopp]

Sky finding every reason to blame Özil for the goal, despite the fact Guen let’s the player go. And the B&H player had 10 yards on him.

Alex Scott said it too. And I thought she had been class up til now

 

[Box2Box]

Brighton are my local team now, my boy follows them so I see a lot of them. They'll be all over us late in the game, they were against Chelsea.

 

[El Duderino]

FFS, I was only going to have a couple of beers here.

Might need to go for something stronger.
