Sporting have started the second half strong

Odegaard has been useless, especially with these back and lateral passes. Alaye progress ball!!!

Zubi scores.. Checking Gykores for offside

Looks off

So unlucky for us
Gyokeres offside

Rice in the left back position to accommodate calafiori long passes

I don’t like it. It makes absolutely no sense for me. Calafiori inverting means Rice had to cover the left side while Zubi continues to push forward.

I don’t like how we have continued to sacrifice Rice’s attacking quality to accommodate Zubi’s defensive frailties. Zubi is the one that is supposed to provide that cover if Arteta is choosing to invert his LB, but we all know he is horrible under pressure.

Sounds familiar

Granit Xhaka role when Zinchenko dey. 😆

Sporting are unbeaten at home yen yen yen yen
Collect Eba jor

Rice is literally working his asss off for that over 100m we signed him from West Ham and the bumper salary he collects.

That guy play pass box-to-box, he plays "dressing room-to- dressing room". Himself, Gabriel, Saliba Timber and Raya deserve to win a major trophy his year to crown their exceptional performances all through the season.

At this point, let's just say the RHS of Arsenal's xI is now a liability. It used to be the LHS we used to complain about. But as White, Saka and Odegaard that used to ball then are now in shadow mode, we can't but conclude in like manner. If anything at all, a fit Timber alone will still b mid with Saka and Odegaard playing ahead of him. I'm glad Dowman is here to bring something different cos Noni ehn....

I'm just waiting to see if it is a rhythm issue.

BTW almost all our matches against Sporting have given us so many injuries. Saliba, Tomi and last season (can't remember)

I'm just happy nobody was injured today.

Whites case is not rhythmic anything, gbag guy is finished. I've seen the signs already ; his positioning is off, players easily beat him to a pass and when he's progressing with the ball up field he just switches off.

I like giving players benefit of doubt. Mine might be too much sef.. Lol

Anyway, I hope he finds his feet soon for our own sake

We go dey talk Balon D'or, people go dey mention Rice, Bruno

Ladies and gentlemen, I raise you David 'safe hands' Raya

Omo! Zubimendi Dey play rubbish for Arsenal.

Ben White also needs to fvck off.

COYG!!

Another game where Raya was magical and guaranteed us the W.

That Southampton win over us last weekend was no fluke. They flogged new big kids in championship, Wrexham 1-5, knocking them out of the playoffs position and taking their place. I hope they maintain this form till they meet city next month at the semis. That Wrexham keeper just switched nationality from England to Nigeria. If this is how he'll be conceding anyhow he better dey where he dey with the 3 lions

I will always hold Arteta responsible for our loss to city in the Carabao cup final just by reason of starting Kepa in goal instead of Raya.

That shitty decision cost us a chance to compete favorably against city in the game.

E get the kine way player go play vs EPL teams oerson go easily conclude if such player go ball vs UCL teams. Zubi no give such vibes one bit. Make Arteta just allow Norgaard get rhythm abeg.

The best player in the game without a doubt. His saves were ridiculous. You guys need him in top form for the next 10 days which will define your season.

Beat Bournemouth this weekend and City next week, the league is yours. If you lose both games or drop points peren! It’s over o. That 9 points gap will immediately shrink to zero cos City will defo win their outstanding game.

The only way to stop those bæstàrds is to kill their morale. If you beat them and Bournemouth, they are more likely to lose their outstanding.

But then Bournemouth go give you trouble this weekend. They’re fresh after the intl break while you guys have played two games already.

Weekend games after a busy midweek in Europe are usually tough. But on top of that, it’s an early kick off (12:30). If your guys can recover quickly and not allow Bournemouth ginger and energy to out power them, there’s hope for Arteta. They haven’t lost a game in 10. Their last EPL defeat was against Arsenal in January.

He is battling fitness. Being out for almost a year. The performance drop in anticipation and sprint

We are playing at home. Let City bother about beating Chelsea in SB

I will not entirely blame Arteta for the lost. Raya can't play all competitions for goodness sake. Kepa should be ashamed of himself.
