Sounds crazy to say but we are still in this game.

I don’t think our concentration levels are good enough yet.

We will gift Chelsea the points again, despite Arteta doing another good job today.

Wow, good call from G on Luiz getting a red :lol:

Mustafi obviously was the main **** up, and I don’t think any Arsenal fan would mind seeing our German “defender” genuinely crippled in the near future, but that was quite poor from Big Dave too...if it’s the last minute of the second half, bring him down, not if it’s 25 mins into the first ffs...just let him score, and try to comeback with 11 men, rather than the crappy situation we are now in.

Finally if Arteta takes off Gabby instead of Özil then I don’t know what to say, will be an unbelievably poor decision from him...need pave for the counter, Mikel don’t be a ****.

Blaming Luiz is ****ing dumb by the way. His instinct is to stop the ball going in the net and he'd have believed he could've made a clean challenge. "Let him score" is ****ing moronic.

Feel so sorry for Arteta.

The **** he's got to work with.

Who in their right mind saw our CBs last year and said let's break the bank on another forward.

The worst thing is the forward wasn't even worth spending most of our budget for! We spent so much and got worse, only at Arsenal.

Abraham was through on goal, 7 yards out. Luiz shoved him over and as Abraham fell out of the way waved a pathetic leg at the ball.

As I said before, if it happens 1v1 with the GK it’s a red too.

It’s a deliberate foul to deny the goal scoring opportunity. A red card by the book.
Interpretation from my end Luiz was trying to get around Abraham and not foul him. Remember football is a contact game. Contact does not necessary constitute a foul and certainly not a deliberate foul which is part of the ruling when giving a double jeopardy red card and penalty. Abraham spread himself which made it more difficult for Luiz to tackle which then leads to the foul. If thay action happens at the by line with a defender jockeying the ball out and the attacker trying to get around fouls him its a foul nothing more. The variable here is a goal scoring opportunity. But then also was the foul deliberate or a genuine attempt to get the ball? no. so therefore penalty only and a yellow.

We're pushing the limit of what this team is capable of. Mustafi is **** as usual, Luiz probably made that tackle knowing he'd get a red and help out his old team, Özil is finished and looks like a grandpa strolling out there, Xhaka literally looks better at CB than CM, and Pepe is playing with negative IQ.

Only Saka, Torreira and Martinelli look like they are really up for the challenge, Bellerin is trying as well but he's playing for the first time in ages.

Mustafi gave a recent interview about the abuse he receives. I don't condone personal attacks but no praise can come his way as a player. Has he done this to ensure he gets minutes? His mistake got Sokratis injured last season. He's a walking disaster. Arteta says we have no choice but to keep him. I don't think we can afford to.

Anybody says anything about this w@nk performance is the fault of our fourth manager in 18 months and I'm coming round with a baseball bat covered in barbed wire.

It's the same stupid mistakes from the same pathetic players.

Luiz has no reason to even attempt a challenge there, just pressure him and let him shoot.. Never a red, but there is too many braindead players in this team.

It’s a deliberate foul, which you can tell because Luiz shoves Abraham in the back with no hiding it, to stop a goal scoring opportunity, which makes it a red card.

When you see Mustafi play you actually understand why he’s still here. Who would take him? Some second division team from Germany? However why is he still playing for us? I would take Torreira at CB over this **** ffs. Holding must be handicaped not to play over him.

Emery got blamed all the time for individual mistakes and I was the only one who backed him.

Lacazette is needed for Arteta's system. Realistically, Arteta has to choose between Pepe and Martinelli to come off. Everyone else is needed.

By the way, we have 51% possession and 0 shots.
