Few errors on the goal - didn't notice that Timber actually gets sucked into midfield by Iwobi which gives the assister loads of time to pick his pass.

    flobaba if we drop points here, I can see a real malaise settling in. a team that gears up for a title challenge and is out of it by December will subconsiously struggle to find that extra bit of energy and motivation for the rest of the season. we'll flounder around between 2nd-4th in an existential daze

    Qwiss all our LBs do, because they have to cover more area than folks out right.

      Really depressing half. Havertz definitely needs a rest agreed that he's physically dropped off. Trossard been hopeless too. Attack seems to be cross and hope or give to Saka and hope.

      Could be another Bournemouth and Newcastle away performance this 1. We go 1 goal down and can't get back into it.

      Nowhere near good enough. Man C drop off and we can't take advantage after the last 2 seasons is just sad.

      TambourineMan the assumption that havertz could be relied as a 9 again always felt like a faulty one. a reversion was always on the cards. the implosion of jesus hasn't helped the situation, but these are all known knowns at the club. this summer was pound for pound as damaging as the 'cech only' summer

      Why does scoring feel like such a chore with this team. I celebrate corners because it gives us hope. It's depressing

      Bin this bloody shirt if we lose again today

      Don't understand why we don't use the " corner threat " to our advantage in the middle area of the pitch. If they are focused on preventing corners that opens up other avenues to attack centrally. We are not exploiting this at all

      Qwiss Tierney or Skelly from the start could've been good. Unfortunately Arteta would often rather "repurpose" players than allow second stringers to take part.

      Claudius exactly. Get Timer and Partey where they are positive

        Partey keeps letting Fulham get out of the press by being too far from Robinson

        as good as our right side is, if there is no right back offering synergy with saka and odegaard, they can be overloaded. timber or white have to play right back. make adjustments elsewhere on the pitch

        Good take Raya, surprised he held that.

        Bassey easily outpacing our striker.

        Just give us a powerful pacey striker ffs. Totally no outlets for through balls

        Qwiss Yep. No matter how much he doesn't trust young players surely it's even better to put just Tierney there and keep eveyrone in their best position
