BlueCo FC v The Arsenal - 5:30 PM 21 October

Clrnc

We have been getting a lot of results this year without playing well. How long can this last?

Clrnc We have been getting a lot of results this year without playing well.

Defense is half of the game.

Bring Back Kerrea Gilbert

Awful.

naz

That was the most angering game I've watched all year

Coombs

I hated watching that.

Don Pacifico

One of the worst games of football I've seen in some time.

Arteta needs to revisit the way we're setting up as there are no signs of it working/improving. Should have beaten this Chelsea team.

Coombs

DiabyKungFu I'm not sure that's true, actually

awooga83

Big get out of jail match so happy to get away with a point but there are still big issues in the way our team is playing for me at the moment which is still worrying.

Qwiss

That was awful. Will gladly take a lucky draw.

Raya hasto be benched. Has Ramsdales ever had 3 poor games like that in a row?

Clrnc

Qwiss He's a bag of nerves especially in big games. He reminds me of Ospina to be honest. I have seen enough now to conclude that we should stick with Ramsdale and send him back to Brentford

Bring Back Kerrea Gilbert

Qwiss not at all.

Qwiss

Coombs we weren't good defensively anyway.

Qwiss

Clrnc I really liked him at Brentford and was glad to sign him but it just st looks like the step up is too much for him. Goalkeeping is largely mental and he constantly looks rattled.

Don Pacifico

Clrnc the one thing I'd say in Raya's defence is that Arteta's management of the situation hasn't helped things one bit.

But yeah, feels an utterly pointless signing so far. Ramsdale will make mistakes too but he's got a few more years on Raya who is yet to show he's an upgrade in anything other than adhering more closely to Arteta's instructions.

Clrnc it’s Mike Maignan time!

Qwiss

Thought ESR was good when he came on. Deserves a start soon.

naz

Qwiss agree. Some of his rough edges will iron out with more playtime

swider

Shape and tactics aside, this stupid passing at lethargic pace in our own half just to set up high risk/ low reward pass forward has to stop. It looks safe in theory, but in reality isn't (number of goals conceded proves it) and it affects us negatively on both sides of the pitch.

goon

swider

I hate it. You can see it’s putting everyone off their game, no one is quite sure what they should be doing with the ball.

Meatwad

HomeSteak
why did we want to spend 70-80m on him in january? arteta's talent id is deficient. imagine if we got our primary targets in january how shit we would be right now. caicedo, mudryk and havertz went for over 250m and they would make any top team worse. how?

Clrnc

Don Pacifico Don't think his mistakes is Arteta fault, given that he is under no pressure to lose his place and is basically our de facto number 1 for awhile now.

Don Pacifico

Clrnc he's under greater scrutiny because of how Arteta's managed the situation. And he looks like a player who is acutely aware of that.

Mirth

Don Pacifico also he’s acutely aware he’s on a loan contract.
