Yeah, that was when Özil could actually be bothered and Alexis was still here.We played a lot better in patches and we created more chances the past two seasons. There’s no pretending going on

How can he do that? One of them is injured every game. Hopefully Mavro and Kosc next week
Knew I could count on you.3 points off 4th with the hardest game until the end of the season out the way....
That’s because we’re still spending the same
I do like a move to 4-4-2 if we can actually make it work. Guendouzi looks made for that set up. Xhaka probably can't play it though. Would like to see Özil tried up top as a second striker with either Laca or Auba in order to let one of the two rest and/or give the bench some firepower.
It was meek surrender in that 2nd half but this game isn't going to define the season. Plenty of reason to be optimistic for a CL place considering the fixtures that Chelsea still have.Knew I could count on you.
And they were valid "excuses" then and it still is now.
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.

Yeah, like someone said in the match thread, Perisic would have been a big boost to playing this way.It's a pity we don't have the pacy wingers needed to play it properly just now. I'd love us to adopt it for next season and get the players in that would fit it perfectly.
Hopefully AMN is back, Lich and Jenkinson are both rubbish. Not sure who I’d play left back, Kola is brilliant at attacking but his stamina is equivalent to a chain smoker. Monreal is solid but has his limitations. Think I’d go:Yeah true I was thinking lets get Kos and Mavro going but we have Sokratis coming back. Jenkinson has to start in front of Litch as well.
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.
Shots on target is not chances createdLook at all the 0's and 1's:
Is the team that we played worse than Newcastle? Worse teams than us have gotten results against City.
Yet all I hear are excuses.
