Mourinho 3rd year syndrome. Nothing new, I think we have seen this pretty much everywhere he goes.

Shocking performance from the referee and the linesmen. The Giroud incident and Azpi incident were obvious. The ref also guilty to be very soft lead to rugby football at the end of game. We kinda lack precision to carve up their defense. Kovacic played the game too safe. Luiz was also caught ball watching and I knew it was too close and he is still young but kepa need to get stronger.

Interested to see what Sarri is going to do in 2nd half. Playing against a 541 team that defend deep is always gling to be difficult

He really emphasize that because although he did well, he can be much2 better

Ask him to just to press, run and combine and you suddenly have a very good version of Pedro

His defensive positioning is not bad he is just too slight and slow.

It is simple, press better then Jorginho will be exposed less.

I agree off the bench Morata can be effective and yes he is improving but he is just too soft. Aways game If I want more speed I probably will play hazard - Pedro - Willian

Barkley did well but comparing him to Kovacic is almost like comparing Willian to Hazard.

Hopefully there is a recording for today's game and you can see how different Giroud play as no 9. He is slow and finisiing is crap but just watch how he fight and press. Those two things are important if Morata want to succeed in PL. PL value physicality especially for a no 9, the way Morata play is just too soft for EPL.

This. I don't get how somebody want to play kante in that role. Jorginho positioning allow the ball to flow Sarri way.

Nah, you should see most of my post about Morata. I have defended him so many times. Yes he scored and yes his overall holdup play today is decent but today Giroud holdup play is eveb better and they way Giroud press, defend and fight is the way I want Morata to play. I have said it countless of times since last season, Morata need to go to they gym and get much2 stronger the same with kepa who I thought should have saved mhky shot

Plus defensively he is pretty good.

60 minutes 2 assists, shoot more please hazard. Btw 2nd half suddenly the cutback is no longer much of a problem anymore. Giroud will start over Morata if Morata continue to play like this. Watching Giroud play is like how I want Morata to play.

If we sort back to Conte style we wont concede but what is the point. We are trying to change our playing style

They cant. They are being overloaded without help. Forfet the cutback. It is obvious what happen, arsenal overload our wing and we look confused on how to cover the extra man. Make it harder for arsenal to have clear cut bacm then protect the cutback

Please stop bashing our fb, they are being overloaded 2 or 3 vs 1

Nah not the fb fault, they are being overloaded, the problem is who shpild provide cover, is it the midfield 3 or the winger. We just look confused

Pretty obvious what happen, two new managers trying to change their team playstyle. Both team looks confused defensively. Our pressing is still confusing, when arsenal player overload the flank, we are also confused on who should provide cover. Is it the cb or the winger job. Our midfield 3 is also confused.

Is rlc injured?

Is he injured?

Is he injured?

My hope, now we have an attacking coach, is for him to have crazy number this season so that people understand how good hazard is a player.

Most big team actually prefer their striker to be able to link up first. It is basically the bare minimum requirement, if your link up play is bad you won't even play. It doesn't matter if you are a good finisher. Michy is our best finisher yet he is loaned to Valencia, Sturridge was pool best finisher but firmino start ahead of him, benzema is still real main striker.

Pretty good representation of some of the gk skill. De gea is definitely the best shot stopper and ederson long range distribution is just ridiculous
