That goal was so poor. Saka/Xhaka/whoever not covering, Cedric playing horribly out of sync, Mari leaving him to run right in and Leno missing the ball altogether.

I blame Cedric and Mari the most.

Piss poor defending. For all the stress we put on stifling ourselves in attack because of Arteta's defensive mindedness we still embarrass ourselves this way time and again

Xhaka passing back at every opportunity

He’s ruined two or three other counters too by ignoring a quick short pass in favour of long ball nowhere.

Saka needs to do better there.

That was so poor from Saka.

Pepe playing really well today

Saka so so so pooor there, pass it man

What happened to Martinelli's pace?

Stonewall foul. VAR not doing its job here, but who's surprised.

This loser team no one even appealed. Even Mari thinks it was okay. What a joke

That pisses me off more than anything too. Make a fucking noise about it regardless of whether you actually think it was a foul or not! Remember when Depay messed up Leno's knee, and not a single player came to his defence as he was shouting at Maupay and getting stretchered off? Keown would have fucking dropped that little shit. We have unbelievably bad comraderie and team spirit in this squad. No one sticks up for anyone, no one ever complains.

Mari wasn't fouled, they're tussling and he's afraid of giving up a pen. Lukaku is just too strong for him.

Yeah didn't look like much to me either. Problem isn't even Cedric who was absent minded because James would've been onside anyway, it's the fact he's that open in the first place

They are killing us out wide

saka looked like that gif of the horse going over the ball.

Pepe easily our brightest player. Esr started nice and he's invisible now

They're gonna exploit our left side time and time again. Tierney has no help over there.

Guendouzi did and we have not seen him since.

Saka needs to do better there.

And there was so much space for him to touch and turn and attack again. As long as we don't get rid of him he will always slow us down and make us so conservative.

We need to change our shape to a back 3 ASAP. cannot handle their wingbacks

Tierney needs to get a lot closer to James, giving him way too much space.
