I wouldn't say they've necessarily been bad though, I think it's just relentless pressure from us isn't giving them a chance to do much.

Whatever happens in the next 45 minutes...
We are on to something, Poch is on to something, this team is one to get behind.
We are a work in progress, there will be ups and downs, but I can definitely say that I am with this team and manager 100% for the ride.

It really will be the proverbial 'game of 2 halves' I think. We have the youthful exuberance, they by & large have the experience. That said, I think our defence just might swing it for us..

Dembele had an awesome first 30 min, great dribbling and that tackle on the german must of made Rose proud

This fixture last season at WHL was the same, we didn't allow them to play well- we didnt give them a second anywhere on the pitch and dominated every individual battle.

Fuck me, that half seemed to last about 12 minutes. In terms of energy and aggression we've been good, rattled a weakened Arsenal team (and I don't just mean their right side, I think Cazorla is a clever little fucker but he doesn't like it up him and you can rattle him out of his a game) who just don't seem at it so far.
Composure wise we have been shockingly awful (they have been just as bad to be fair). We must have had 15-20 situations on the counter with their defenders backing off shitting themselves and blew every single one of them with over excited fuckwittery.
I still think Mason out there would have given us a bit more composure on the ball. Dembele's been good defensively, but has got caught dawdling on the ball twice already in CM and forced to give sloppy passes, you won't get away with that with this lot too often because if they get into the counter situations they do have players who won't get it wrong as often as ours do.

He defends better from that side as well as he can naturally come in with his left foot as opposed too tackling from the wrong side all the time when he's in front of Walker.
So far, poch's in-game tinkering has been effective.

Yeah they swapped. I think it was as Alli would be better closing down their centre backs. Seems to have worked.
