    Given we have struggled after we make our changes - this could get messy

    so far so good despite it being dire fare .

    Arteta has turned Arsenal into the most cynical team in the league and their constant flopping to the ground is getting to the stage the reg needs to have a word .

    Best thing is to make the sarcastic get up hand gesture at one and then book the next one.

    Refs are so afraid of var then intervening and making them look dumb they do nothing any more.

    Poor first half. Need either Macca or Wirtz off to move Sobz to midfield and put Bradly or Gomez on. Last 15 put Rio on for Gakpo so we have an outlet to run at them. Salah has been poor, but Kerkez is defending better.

    I think Howe is running him close at Newcastle

    Not concede.

    That's about it.

    We are scared of them.

    They are wary of us.

    They are getting enough joy out of long hoofs to get the set piece they think will win it.

    Can't wait for wirtz off and Bradley on.

    Macallister is miles off it too but this is not a game for jones to indulge himself in his own half and lose it.

    I'd perfer chiesa to wirtz at this point. He is everywhere but anywhere dangerous.

    Blame slot for these tactics and set up. Not having watched Leverkuesen or Wirtz much how did he play and watch position for them as they played 3 at the back?

    I do feel we are struggling for an Identity this season. We are not pressing, not fast breaking and not tika taka. At the moment we just look like 11 players with no real plan this season.

    We started games in a similar way last season; show and sluggish in the first half and then picked up the pace in the second. Hopefully, that's the plan here...

    At least were attacking towards the Kop this half, with Chiesa and Rio to come on...silver linings and all that

    We seem to be setting up to push salah on and hold gakpo back so the press is dead.

    Its holding kerkez back as well in a tight back line so we are not really able to press right up.

    The rb is always available.
