the reason we're playing counter-attack is the lack of a certain Ukrainian inverted man
the reason we've a clean sheet is Timber
8 0 ReplyAnd saliba tbh stopping haaland
7 0 ReplyWhich is a good thing. We don't need to expose our wings. Sometimes a block with Tierney was the best option in the previous season.

8 0 Replysecond best after winning the treble?

I was thinking this exact thing earlier
I used to steer clear entirely because of how toxic it got.
That and I am always under the assumption people don't really care what I have to say.

30 minutes into the first half I realized that our defense looks so much stronger. Timber and rice have brought some great football IQ and strong skills to the the team.
7 0 ReplyYou can tell the confidence is there in the players watching them. They are all cool, calm, collected on the ball and can really pass and move well, which helps when we have the ball. Defensively as a unit they are quite solid and have done well to hold City to 3 shot, none of which were on target.

7 0 ReplyYellow card for Pep? lol
Feels like if it were Arteta he'd be sent off for even breathing in the refs direction
7 0 ReplyHe already got a yellow like first minute for asking for a legitimate yellow ffs

Timber is having a fantastic second half.
7 0 ReplyLess attacks from him than the first half but he's doing pretty good yeah
4 0 ReplyI think that's the issue. He's just not comfortable going season

Good try from Saka there, he scores those sometimes
6 0 ReplyHavertz attempt saved again... We have had the better chances.
6 0 ReplyWhy is Saka playing so centrally?
5 0 ReplyOffensive structure doesn't make sense. Players look lost in the final third.
3 0 Reply100%. Our fluidity in the final was missing and that was confusing given how we looked against our other preseason opponents
3 0 Reply
Wait, did Gabriel get a yellow for that...?
5 0 ReplyInterfering and timewasting I'm assuming; bloody stupid card though
1 0 ReplyFfs... there's time wasting but, a yellow for something like that is pretty stupid.
Trust the refs to use us to make an example of their new changes

4 0 ReplyNo yellow for Rodri?!?!?!?!?
4 0 ReplyESR vs KDB, Croydon De Bruyne vs Kevin De Bruyne
4 0 ReplyGood first half overall. City don't look sharp right now and if we can just be more clinical we got this.

4 0 ReplyAlright, time to see what we're made of. Tierney can't fucking get a start, so let's see how Timber does.
4 0 ReplyI wanted Trossard over Havertz and Tierney over Timber.

4 0 ReplyNot convinced on Havertz. Convinced on Timber.
4 0 ReplyI'm not completely sold on him just yet either. But, I haven't been able to catch a pre-season game so far and he's not being played in his ideal position.
This is a new team for him as well after being at the manager cluster-fuck of Chelsea
I'm hopeful he grows into his boots under Arsenal. I feel there is a player in there that could benefit us!
3 0 ReplyIt will be interesting to see how it works when Jesus drops in and Havertz fills the space. Havertz and Rice are big boys who take up a lot of space in the midfield when we don't have the ball.
2 0 Reply
Easy conclusion to me. I'm in the same boat. Always felt a striker was a better option then a replacement for Xhaka.

3 0 ReplyOf course Gabriel gets a card for running back and being kicked in the ass /lh
3 0 ReplyJsut send everyone forwards, hell take Ramsdale off
3 0 ReplyStill genuinely can't believe we have Declan Rice
3 0 ReplyGood reaction from Ortega. Havertz received the ball a bit awkwardly.
3 0 ReplyYeah, Ortega did well, but Havertz shouldn't have shot in the first place with where Martinelli was imo

3 0 ReplyHavertz good try
3 0 ReplyThe first one I can excuse because it was awkward. This one was on a platter.
2 0 ReplyYeah.. finishing has never been his thing though, and that's not what we signed him for. Maybe can be coached but he's a midfielder first and foremost
