PL: Manchester City vs Arsenal, February 3rd, 16:30 Sky Sports

[Rimaal]

Newcastle caught City napping, it happens. Against another big team, City gave all they got. They would have played Newcastle of the field today.

What about West Ham?

 

[Giroud12]

I’d be very happy with this if it didn’t go to the script that almost all of us would have predicted.

I could accept the loss of it looked like we had a strategy; if it looked like there was a plan to get something out of the game.

It’s becoming ridiculous. We are Liverpool from 7 years ago.... scraping victories against the weaker teams and ****ting it against the better ones.

I am really starting to think Wenger would be doing much better with the current set up.

We had a strategy and it worked quite well in the first half. But with 4-5 starters out against possibly the best team in the world its not that easy.

 

[Yousif Arsenal]

The 2nd half was huge disappointment we looked out of energy out of ideas

 

[MutableEarth]

Did you really expect he’ll hit the ground running coming on in the 2nd half against City while we were completly disjointed and being here for a couple of days?

I didn't expect him to get levered off the ball every time he touched it and look completely ineffectual. Like I said - it's a free hit in a game we already lost. I hope he looks a lot better than that next week.

 

[Rex Stone]

Really need to start building something solid at the back. Chopping and changing all the time kills the cohesion, as well as Mustafi.

It’s the injuries mate. Sokratis and Bellerin have been rocks this year as was Holding when fit.

Those are three defenders who were playing on fire.

 

[dashsnow17]

Oh well, could've been worse.

 

[LG10]

I think that Suarez was a poor signing but people having a meltdown over his performance today are hilarious

 

[Fewtch]

This performance will hurt less if people stop pretending that this team played good football in Wenger’s last two seasons

We played a lot better in patches and we created more chances the past two seasons. There’s no pretending going on

 

[Vibra]

We desperately lacked someone who would bridge the gap between the midfield and the attack in the 2nd half. How do you not bring on Özil in that situation? What's the worst that could have happened? We were down 2 goals

 

[Yousif Arsenal]

They are different quality now.Simple as that.

They levels above us their whole bench would start for us.

 

[Taylor Gang Gunners]

We didn’t disgrace ourselves. City are far and away better than us- and as soulless a club they are, I’d much rather they win the league than Lolerpool.

Also, any backline with both Lichsteiner and Mustafi is doomed for failure. Play Mustafi RB. Lichsteiner is simply dreadful.

 

[Mo Britain]

 

[Mohamed7]

Their back 4 or 5, which ****ing they played, cost more than the entire Arsenal squad.

You can blame the players and the head coach but any smart fan will know the class in quality is not created by tactics but because of the resources available.

Apart from Sp**s, everyone else just spent way more. VDV and that Brazilian goalkeeper cost more than our club

 

[Sanchez11]

Crap 2nd half should have taken a cf off, no pressing from the front today whatsoever. We have the europa and thats it.

 

[A_G]

3 points off 4th with the hardest game until the end of the season out the way....

 

[Sniper Mik]

The same excuses were trotted out at the beginning of the season, when we were at home and lost 2-0.

And they were valid "excuses" then and it still is now.

 

[dashsnow17]

We only lost by two goals in August and again by two goals today. We've only gone and done the double over them! They must be really embarrassed.

 

[BobP]

Look at all the 0's and 1's:

Should change the blurb under you avatar to 'nobody is safe'.

 

[celestis]

Emery out if he even entertains the thought of signing that fraud Suarez.

This is the first time I have ever seen him live , not sure why Emery brought him on didn't look like he was ready to play

 

[Manberg]

How does Kroenke spending money on his gridiron team help us?
He spends his money on them and we get none of it. It's a competition.
