Lucky af, that was atrocious, never seen so many over cooked and misplaced passes and bad first touches ever ever, if we had been a little more on point with the possession we had, we would have ripped W'ham a new one, I know we have need of strengthening, but we should have done 'em with the personnel we had today, no worries:confused:

When Leno dropped the ball, it was Gabby who got the last man block, a lot of people missed it. He also put off Antonio for the chance which Leno gathered on the line. Some vital contributions

Yeah, Gabby had a good game again. At worst he came close to potential errors, but dealt with it.

He also won a lot of aerial duels and clipped some lovely long passes in the first half. Not his best display of course but there’s so much to work with there. He’ll blossom into a phenomenal defender.

 

[Mrs Bergkamp]

What result do we want for chelsea vs pool tomorrow lads?

A draw.

 

[HairSprayGooners]

Yeah ngl so impressed with Gabriel's transition into a new team and league. Looks our best defender straight away but I guess that wasn't hard.

Pepe needs to start games, he's going to lose confidence so fast if he doesn't.

I would also say today's performance was probably much closer to "this is why this team finished 8th last season" than to "winning ugly is a sign of a good team".

Yeah this was no win Vs Liverpool or City

 

[OnlyOne]

Does anyone know who was man of the match?

Yes, Antonio.

 

[Oxeki]

@American_Gooner make sure you make the Liverpool thread, not having another @Oxeki disaster class.

Stop crying like a little girl. We won, didn't we?

complete opposite for me.

 

[Tourbillion]

We were appalling. Those touches and passes, good lord.

Thank God we fluked the win. Midfield needs a 100% overhaul and I'm tired of saying it.

 

[A_G]

Does anyone know who was man of the match?

Ceballos

Oooo someones over reacting.

 

[Oxeki]

Does anyone know who was man of the match?

Defo Ceballos. He was immense

 

[Tourbillion]

Holding and Kolasinac as well, horrendous tonight.

What was up with Bellerin allowing in cross after cross?

But Xhaka has been selected by every manager and starts for Switzerland so he must be good or something

 

[Yousif Arsenal]

Good news this

 

[rich 1990]

Pepe is getting to the point where you cut your losses.

There's a theory that he's trying to avoid injury so he can move...

 

[Tourbillion]

Yeah, we're not far from that.
