Arsenal v Newcastle 7 January 8pm Carabao Cup Semi Final 1st Leg

JazzG

Similar to Liverpool last season, how many chances do we need?

I think the only two games that I've missed out on entirely the past two years were this game and the West Ham home game last season. My bad, guys. I'll try to do better moving forward.

Qwiss Yep we get behind the lines and then go backwards lolll. Odegaard did the same. Trossard played him in behind the midfield. He did a turn and all the midfielders got back and advantage lost.

It's like it's more important to keep the ball than go for it, be direct, be brave, take a risk and try to score.

Qwiss also need a winger who can take a man on one on one

GooneriC

No no we can't be brave , we must control , we must process , we must pass sideways and back so we can keep the ball. There's no attacking plan other than get it wide and hope for the best.

awooga83

GooneriC don't forget if we keep passing it back we are dominant in the game and that's means we win or something.

GooneriC

Feels like the last days of Arsene Wenger , poor slow ponderous and giving up stupid goals

lorddulaarsenal

He have no explosive power in the attack at all

daredevil

We look jaded this season. Hard to see where the impetus is going to come from.

GooneriC

Need an Arshavin type impact signing , otherwise our season is done. No attacker in January could see even City reel us in

TambourineMan

Bet on us losing to nil at 8-1. First time I ever bet against us but this was the most obvious result ever and the win has softened the blow of this defeat slightly.

Let's just get a fucking attacker in this month and try to salvage the season. Without one we aren't winning shit.

invisibleman18

This was all predictable with the lack of depth and awful summer transfer window which didn't address the needs of the squad.

SimplyThePest

invisibleman18 but hey, we were raising the floor!

Gazza M

this is what saka-less arsenal is. we heaped way too much responsibility on him while stockpiling defenders. now we're in the shit

Gazza M

SimplyThePest it's murder on mikels floor

Sicario2 - Tier 1

Not good. I did warn you guys football is not linear and that we wouldn’t get 20 shots at a winning the title.

We had our chance last two years. When it’s on the plate you take it. There’s no guarantees in football.

I’m afraid Arteta will end up being a Poch 2.0 aka nearly man.

jones

Sicario2 - Tier 1 Pochettino went five years without a trophy. Arteta entering his fourth now but was backed to a completely different level

We're not doing anything in the market until we've found some other Cuesta 2.0 teenager to hire for Edus job. If we ask Arteta to sign someone this January it'll just be our 7th LB/CB hybrid ffs.

Burnwinter

You're not gonna get many clearer proofs we need to sign forwards. Feels a bit despondent at present in general.

Coombs

Knew we'd lose. Just off the plane and I immediately came here to write another I-told-you-so into the void:

Our summer was a failure.

Gazza M

finding new levels of inefficiency

invisibleman18

Gazza M if only the impact of having no centre forward in the squad could have been foreseen somehow.

Dom

The difference between a Havertz and Isak couldn't be any clearer. Isak could receive the ball and do something with it, in space or while being pressed by Gabriel and Saliba. Havertz usually bodged his first, second or third touch or dribbled into dead ends.
