I though he was teying too shoot. I still think he has a good game overall.

Nah, just a really poor cross on his weaker foot. No way he wanted to shoot with his weaker foot from that angle

Xhaka really has been fantastic. Captain's performance.

Very good first half with the usual disappointment that we probably should have another goal from that. Now we'll see if we can manage the second half battle.

Bellerin will cost us won’t he

Everyone looks very switched on. Even Luiz. Really good half.

Can't believe how good most of the guys have been.

Ceballos is surprisingly good defensively/up for a fight. Xhaka has been a great marshall as well.

AMN could be genuinely one of the best wing backs around. I love his confidence to try risky passes between players. Bellerin honestly barely looks a PL player in comparison.

Pepe has been very good. Actually the three attackers have been great.

Luiz and Xhaka have been excellent. Shocking stuff tbh.

Luiz in the libero position in a back 3 is a 30m defender as usual.

Xhaka and Ceballos has worked really hard and is excellent in CM.

Not going to be enough though, we need to score the 2nd goal. Can't believe we should have been 3-0 up if we got our act together.

Tierney is absolutely brilliant

Luiz has been good, its an interesting battle between him and Jesus. Could over do it.

I though Laca was being lazy but it looks like he’s actually dropping deep and man marking Gundogan.

Dont want to jinx it but Luiz has been an absolute beast in the last game and a half for us.

One of our best half in years, played some sumptuous stuff.

That was a really good half of football by us. Wish we'd been a bit more clinical, but at least we got one.

We'll probably have to score another to win this. Given how they're defending, I don't see why we couldn't.

The defenders need to cut out the bull shit passes in front of our net. If we can do that, we might actually win this

Its been years since we played with authority in a big game. We don't look intimidated my them at all. 

The bullshit passes inn front og our own goal has actually helped is create chances. Drawing man city out, allowing is to bypass their midfield easily.

Xhaka btw.... Stellar

AMN has second choice LWB sewn up if he wants it. Looks like Arteta trusts him more than Kola to execute his style of play.
