This would've been the absolute perfect match for the aggressive runs of Pulisic. Newcastle are parking the bus but we're still finding joy down the flanks. He would've been highly effective here. We need our wide players to be more forceful in the second half. The pace of our attacks was a bit too slow most of the time.

Tammy has been horrendous. Can't control the ball to save his life and giving it away left and right.

Wow. That was a Torres esque sitter missed. Timo looks extra sharp with his movement and runs but not so much with his finishing.

Just looking at the league table and see that Arse have a negative goal difference and have only scored 9 goals this far. 😂😂😂 Arteta's Arsenal side is literally the opposite of Wenger's. In all the biggest games against the top teams Arteta plays ultra-negative, Mourinhoball and grinds out flukey wins. Then they choke against teams they used to feast upon.

Wtf was that from KDB? 😂 Looked like he missed it on purpose it was so bad.

Another Mane dive for a penalty. Maybe it was the camera angle, but I didn't see any contact?

ZIIIIIIYECH!!!!!!!!!!

Good response to going down a goal but not a particularly great performance. All of our attacking danger was via the flanks. Tammy and Timo didn't get much joy. I realize he is well used to playing out wide, but for me Timo hasn't looked comfortable there in a Chelsea shirt. And he is also starting to look fatigued which is understandable. That Pulisic injury really fucked us. Timo could've rested ...

Ziyech's left foot is RIDICULOUS, man!

This is why the hype about Everton was vastly overstated and premature. Their defense is awful. Any combo of CB's they have is poor, Coleman is poor, and Pickford is shit. They're a decent team but nothing more. As usual. Probably finish between 7-9th. Anyways, I can't fucking stand Bruno Fernandes. He's quality, no doubt, but he's such an unlikable, diving, moaning cunt. Really hate the bastard.

Werner out for the second half? 😑😑😑

Ref fucking over both sides here. This guy come from some 6th tier league somewhere in Eastern Europe or something? He's abysmal.

This ref is a joke. Some ridiculous yellows being given for innocuous, standard fouls. And for first time offenses as well.

Well then. Ace from front to back. Feels so, soooo weird seeing us keep all these clean sheets! Am I dreaming? 😂 Zouma is dominant physically and Silva is dominant positionally. And both fullbacks have been class.

Much, much more competent attacking performance. If Werner's touch was sharper we could've scored another. Couple of sketchy Zouma moments apart that was an easy half. Can't imagine Burnley will be as passive in the next 45 so we 100% need to score again.

Finally fully fit, says he feels 100% again and ready to play 90 minutes, then gets injured in the warmup. FFS, he's made of the most delicate glass.

Not saying he should've started here, but Giroud must really regret staying.. He carried us at times last season and seemed to earn his spot in the team after needing to be extremely patient for much of the year. Now bumped back down to 3rd choice and never playing again. Feel sorry for him, tbh. Anyways, I hope this is a XI that will press very aggressively and be very energetic. We all know Burnley will try to grind this to walking pace and we often oblige teams that do that. Need to get the ball to CP and Ziyech at pace as often as possible. Don't let them park their whole team behind the ball and stifle everything or we'll drop stupid points again.

Every single one of our midfielders looks to be playing blind passes over and over again. Every one. Lazy, terrible passes to the other team.

This might be even worse than the second half of United considering the opponent. Horrendous performance in this second half. We can't make simple passes! What the fuck are our players doing!?

My god, it's just utter calamity every time they get the ball in or near our box. Without Silva our defense is just full on panic stations at all times.

Werner's frustration is indeed noticeable. And I think a lot of it is because we aren't able to play the sort of passes he thrives on. it's even harder against sides that sit so deep for him to use his pace in behind.

Ziyech has been awesome. And not even fully up to speed yet. Playing some BEUATIFUL balls here. Our best player so far.

So. Many. Sloppy. Giveaways. And on simple passes!

Can't get the attackers on the ball at all here. Pretty turgid. All of our play is in the middle of the pitch where Kova and Jorginho won't hurt anyone. And then this bunch of no name players look dangerous every time they attack us...

Werner should've been the designated penalty taker from day 1. Wasn't he excellent from the spot in Germany?
