Angers SCO v Arsenal | July 31 | KO: 18:30 BST

[PoleInGoal]

I see fans are already turning on Medley after his first game as a CB in the preseason. Fans also want to promote youngsters? Very confusing.

Fans contradicting themselves? Surely not

 

[blaze_of_glory]

Martinelli has some good instincts, seems the type to make things happen out of nothing.

 

[Garrincha]

This pre season in general feels a bit under-cooked. Juts Barca left isnt it?

 

[Tourbillion]

Sure. Preseason game filled with youngsters, but this is bum football at its worst. I'm so unimpressed by Emery's go-to style of play.

Just look at the zero options in the middle of the pitch. No one comes deep to receive it from the hapless Guendouzi and Burton.

That, I assure you, is by design.

 

[Ricardinho]

Jeff looking big and strong. What's the chances of him having Pepe type season

 

[Preacher]

This game needs Willock.

Would be nice to have ESR also. Missing link.

 

[Wengysaurus]

Amazing hard hard it seems to get a solid defensive structure sorted out. We always look sloppy, and it feel's like a lapse in concentration is around the corner. Only a friendly though, so can't go overboard.

I think that's because unlike most of our betters/rivals we haven't played any PL teams

I've been saying he isn't quite ready for a while tbh. Don't mind seeing him instead of Mustafi and he has improved a lot but still.

 

[Hunta]

Martinelli is a breath of fresh air, absolutely brilliant work rate and his positioning is fantastic, always on the end of things.

Everything else has been pretty rubbish.

 

[Taylor Gang Gunners]

I love the way Robbie Burton plays, bit of an unsung hero this pre season.

Also, Martinelli is such an exciting player. I love his instinct just to get forward and try make something happen.

That's you called pre-season our football looked amazing and good against fiorentina and real Madrid and against lyon at 1st half

 

[berric]

I jinxed Matteo. Started well but faded. I honestly believe thst he needs to stay on foot more and be more aggressive in duels if he wants to become a top player.

I just dislike his football philosophy. Arsenal should be playing more short, inventive passes.

This is Everton 2015 football.

 

[Keplaz]

This is to be expected given the team he picked. I think he's trying to see who from the yute will be ready for the big time next season.

Martinelli very impressive. And I don't think Medley should be partnered with Mustafi. Picking up his bad habits.

 

[Wengysaurus]

Emery relies so much on his fullbacks to be the main creators, need to find other ways of creating chances and looking dangerous.

Agree. We look bereft of ideas on how to move the ball out of our own half.

Angers look a much more coherent side both in attack and defense.

 

[berric]

I see but the same things will happen to much better talents than him. We want youngsters, we get them, we scrutinize them, they lose confidence, and the circle goes on...

 

[UpTheGunnerz]

Bellerin - Pepe linkup gun get tasty

 

[ASIF]

Created absolutely fckall in the 1st half.That Adelaide kid looks special wish we had him.
