Jota's has been fairly ****e too in possession. Has given everything away. Stick 50 quid in him scoring.
More goals to come from us. Some lucky saves yet again from Ramsdale we had more of the half and deservedly in the lead. Just have to keep an eye on Saka. Otherwise we should be fine.
1-0 Could be better could be worse. We're not playing terribly but no one looks at their best. We are probably the marginally better team but we've not always been great at defending a lead this season. Game definately not over.
Mane has been poor, despite scoring. His booking was just stupidity, he is an aggressive player so could easily be sent off 2nd half. This is were the poor bench comes into play. If Origi or Bobby was on the bench Mane would be replaced to prevent a second yellow, but we have to keep him on. Thought we were pretty poor until the manager scrap, then we started playing. Never liked Arteta as a player as he was a sneaky batard and always waving imaginary cards about to try and get opposition players sent off, he is the same as a manager....total tw*t
Mini me can come on on 75mins. Mane has.only had the one red and that was ederson He is more than capable of minding himself here.
Plus ramsdale celebrates a tap over the bar right at him that he dives about Hollywood for. I'd save and hold that salah shot. The fact is the ball came right off him from that and thiago scuff Pathetic individual Saka is the main danger here imo. Tsimikas looks absolutely ****e in his own half and not much better in theirs. If saka gets a run vvd will have to cover and the middle I s then wide open. Imo that's how they score. Right wing cross/ pass and nobody home to defend for us.
You spend a year driving tractors for Jeremy Clarkson and you become a bit over dramatic. Glad he's lost the weight since he stared in that show though.
For me whites "run" first half showed me arsenal have no plan. If you see the shot from behind the goal theres a space a mile wide in our rb channel (as usual) and all they needed was to lift the head or to play it if that was a plan. There was no run despite a player being wide looking at white and he never tried. That's why I feel their only tactic is through saka here.
Were Arsenal chugging beer during half time? They're not playing as well this half so far. They remind me of my five aside team when we had a double header and would drink beer during the gap between games.
