PEPE!!! NEVER IN DOUBT!

 

[GDeep™]

I tried to make you all into millionaires, but instead you chose the path of hatred.

Paddy Power ... Pay Me Mother F***er

:trophy:

I put 3400 mate, got back over 11K

 

[hydrofluoric acid]

Shut that trap!

Why so violent these days? Are you coming down after months of MDMA weekends abuse?

 

[blaze_of_glory]

Tbf I'm not sure how much of the blame Unai can take for the performance tonight? Previous performances... of course but half the players didn't look interested tonight, were giving up when they gave the ball away.

All of it I figure.

 

[TromsoGooner]

Good game, we win and couple of players get to show some of their stuff and Emery gets closer to the sack after yet another bad performance. win all around.

Exactly. happy with with the win and thrilled for Pepe but the game just highlighted how out of his depth Emery is.

Nonsense. All the blame is on Emery. Awful tactics and it won’t change.

Martinelli & Guendouzi were good too.

Guendouzi won us important free kick but didn't to anything else Martinelli Smith-Rowe were good

 

[MutableEarth]

All about Pepe that game. He needed that. Let's see that carry into the PL now.

I thought Smith-Rowe had a good game, Guendouzi also looked good when he came on. Midfield is still a massive issue even when Xhaka is removed but those 2 did well for me. Willock still a contender but just not playing at full conviction last couple games. Moving the ball through midfield was a big issue.

Martinelli did good but tired at the end. The CBs were also OK. Bellerin lacked fitness, Tierney finished the game quietly strong after a slightly relaxed start. The real poor players for me were AMN, Torreira, Ceballos and Lacazette. Wasnt happy with their contributions overall.

 

[baccy_man]

We were very lucky to get that result we played poorly for most of the game we kept giving the ball away and at times looked like we didn't have a clue what we were trying to do,
It's a good job that we had Pepe to come on for us he changed the game with those free kicks,

 

[Iceman10]

Happy for Pepe. The rest was mostly crud though.

 

[Pepes blue pill]

Shocking but well **** ing done pepe, class when he came on

 

[SingmeasongSong]

So happy the public hate on Pepe will stop now for some time, was already our best player against Sheffield and got a much needed confidence boost today whilst looking lively throughout since coming on.

All of the first eleven bar ESR and Martinelli looked ****ty and I am currently most disappointed with Willock who seems to have had only bad games recently. But he's young, so I'm not worried long term.

Nothing left to say about Guen - by far the most talented player in our whole squad. Absolutely out of this world what this kid is doing at this young age.

 

[Artisan]

Exactly. happy with with the win and thrilled for Pepe but the game just highlighted how out of his depth Emery is.

You could see he knew, couldn't even be bother to celebrate the goal. Seen people clap harder at a funeral eulogy than he did for the goal.

 

[Manberg]

Played after every win. Must admit I quite like it.

I hate it. Never liked the song. I want to hear Hey Jude or some other Beatles/Stones song.

 

[Mitch]

Awful Performance (with the exception of Pepe, ESR & Martinelli). That said I am just glad Pepe got his confidence booster performance & finally showed us what he is capable of.

 

[MLK79]

I haven't seen a bailout this big since the 2008 financial crisis.

 

[krengon]

Pepe made it worth sitting through that **** game..

 

[blaze_of_glory]

I haven't seen a bailout this big since the 2008 financial crisis.

 

[Yousif Arsenal]

Again there is big problem in midfield its not because Özil not playing but the players seem not understanding what they doing defensively and offensively getting bypassed easily too many bad first touches too many bad decision in final 3rd

 

[Sanchez11]

Unai is going to big it up now
