[Gooner Zig]

Crazy amount of over reacting going on - only Butland has stopped us from being 1-0 up

 

[Lookin' for a new Baby]

Not bad half from us should been 1 up and had a penalty.

Started well and looked good, then tailed off.

 

[GDeep™]

Lacazette is useless unless you put it on a player for him.

 

[Jae]

Xhaka and Özil 2/10.

Get Iwobi on (he on the bench?)

I'll have Xhaka but don't really understand what Özil has done so drastically wrong?

 

[TakeChillPill]

This is why we need Sanchez so much. This game is waiting for someone to take it by the scruff of the neck!

Need our big players to step up I.e. Özil, xhaka, ramsey!

 

[Aevi]

Lacazette is useless unless you put it on a player for him.

You're dumb.

 

[blaze_of_glory]

Sloppy stuff, but not a bad half for us overall. Could have been up a couple if Bellerin, Ox and Welbeck had more composure.

 

[A_G]

Lacazette is useless unless you put it on a player for him.

Your AM career is hanging by a thread, nail biting stuff

 

[Shadow Moses]

Honestly either Monreal or Kolasinac should be playing LWB. Playing Bellerin or Ox there is so ineffective.

 

[YaGunnersYa]

To be fair, as far as he's concerned, its par for the course regardind his Arsenal career so far.

I wouldnt completely disagree. Too many poor performances between his good ones.

 

[Sapient Hawk]

That's my critique of him. If he isnt passing it well or being given space to do so, he doesnt have anything else in his locker.

Yet mystifyingly enough, some here would have us believe he's a midfield maestro

 

[Jury]

To be fair, as far as he's concerned, its par for the course regardind his Arsenal career so far.

You're a brave man, and one I agree with.

 

[Taylor Gang Gunners]

Harsh.

Meh, you reap what you sow.

 

[Yousif Arsenal]

Have feeling beardman going to do his magic and win us the game

 

[Beast Incarnate]

Özil has been really poor again.

 

[GDeep™]

Your AM career is hanging by a thread, nail biting stuff

Do or die 45 minutes.

It's been a fun ride.

 

[RandomHero84]

Stoke look soft and easy to get at. Meekly kicking the ball out for diouf is a huge indicator of our mentality. Also, the amount of basic errors we make is astonishing sometimes. Five yard passes, miscommunication, hesitation in 50/50 challenges. It's very strange.

On the plus side, lacazette looks great. I'd love to see him play with the old Özil.

 

[Mo Britain]

Kola on the left. Per in the middle, Hector on the bench.

 

[Taylor Gang Gunners]

Yet mystifyingly enough, some here would have us believe he's a midfield maestro

Why is it mystifying? He's had a poor game yeah, but he's a wonderful player.

Only way is up.

 

[Ewarwoowar]

Missing the precision of Elneny
