PL: Manchester City vs Arsenal, February 3rd, 16:30 Sky Sports

[Mrs Bergkamp]

How will Everton away and Chelsea be tougher than us?

Absolute sh*te from Neville there

Not necessarily Newcastle were tougher than we were today.

[OnlyOne]

Really need to start building something solid at the back. Chopping and changing all the time kills the cohesion, as well as Mustafi.

 

[blaze_of_glory]

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.

 

[Vibra]

The way the team's been built up is really ****ing weird. Our two record signings were signed 6 months apart and play the same position. Who does that?

 

[BobP]

Guendouzi? The problem was Iwobi and Kolasinac did nothing in attack, should've been replaced earlier.

Think we should have started with Ramsey and then thrown Iwobi on later.

 

[Yousif Arsenal]

You can't get mad when you playing against team who spend millions while some of our fans want us to win the game having Lich mustafi and Iwobi in your starting 11.

Peoplr will blame emery of course but that what he got

 

[NieThePiet]

Please stop with all these injuries.

Our offensive options are all fit and we haven't had a shot in the second half despite losing the whole second half.

The team has no idea how to create chances.

 

[ptrcopp]

I’d be very happy with this if it didn’t go to the script that almost all of us would have predicted.

I could accept the loss of it looked like we had a strategy; if it looked like there was a plan to get something out of the game.

It’s becoming ridiculous. We are Liverpool from 7 years ago.... scraping victories against the weaker teams and ****ting it against the better ones.

I am really starting to think Wenger would be doing much better with the current set up.

 

[al-Ustaadh]

At least we're still in the Super Bowl.

 

[HBL]

Really need to start building something solid at the back. Chopping and changing all the time kills the cohesion, as well as Mustafi.

How can he do that? One of them is injured every game. Hopefully Mavro and Kosc next week

 

[hydrofluoric acid]

Leno - 2
Lichtsteiner - 2
Mustafi - 2
Koscielny - 6
Monreal - 5
Guendouzi - 8
Torreira - 5
Iwobi - 1
Kolasinac - 2
Lacazette - 3
Aubameyang - 3

 

[Rimaal]

Did you really expect he’ll hit the ground running coming on in the 2nd half against City while we were completly disjointed and being here for a couple of days?

Then why bring him on at all in this game if Emery was not expectung to do something?

This isn't a charity match.

 

[Gooner_girl14]

Still have no transition from defence to midfield and attack.

Laca and Auba are being wasted.

No matter how much Özil may have declined, he's still better than Iwobi to provide that transition from defence to attack. We were crying out for a creative player who can keep possession...

 

[morpho]

Well c'mon West Ham... Cant stand a reality were Liverpool wins the league. Or worse, spuds :confused:

 

[Preacher]

Is the team that we played worse than Newcastle? Worse teams than us have gotten results against City.

Yet all I hear are excuses.

Newcastle caught City napping, it happens. Against another big team, City gave all they got. They would have played Newcastle off the field today.

 

[Vinci]

Some of the posting on here is poverty, feel like people can’t wait for us to lose to get the knives in.

Yes the second half was disappointing but we played well today I though, give Emery a couple of transfer windows and who knows.

Even without any injuries at all it would have been a struggle, but Sokratis, Bellerin, Welbeck on the wing and it could have been much different.

 

[A_G]

I want a big team manager, we should be playing attacking football.
we are The Arsenal.

Look at all the 0's and 1's:

 

[squallman]

Apples and oranges. City are a different animal at home. They were on it from first whistle because of what happened last week.

The same excuses were trotted out at the beginning of the season, when we were at home and lost 2-0.

They are different quality now.Simple as that.
