Can't beat top teams with shitty fullbacks and mediocore midfield. There's a reason why we have 0% chance to beat teams like City and why Liverpool is better. Rich teams always buy quality strikers and midfielders first and then fullbacks second, they are crucial in modern game. Kane, Son and Eriksen are good enough to beat teams bellow top 4 but we don't have enough quality in crucial areas to compete with top 4 teams and to do anything in CL. It's a miracle we are only a point below Chelsea.

Huh? Are you saying they're not good enough to beat top 4 teams because that would be nonsense

Toby will definitely leave in the summer. Very sad of this. Same shit happened in 2016-17 when walker was left out at important games. As a result, he left.

Moura in his way sitting on the bench perhaps
Kane has lost so much of his mobility and he had little to lose in the first place . Looks like he has lead in his boots.
Is this a result of his ankle injuries? He hasn't looked the same all season. It's worrying.

As it stands, scum are well in the driving seat for 4th ahead of us. Momentum and vibe is with them.

Poch puts us at an unnecessary disadvantage too often by using, obviously, wrong tactics.

This time last year weren’t they clear of us and just beaten us at their place?

We’ll finish above them with a bit to spare again this season. They are very average. That’s what makes today so annoying.

Our lot should be embarrassed by that to be honest. Torreira is fucking shit

Was a shocker from our manager today. Obviously thinking he is billy big balls starting foyth over Toby but he ain’t looking too clever now. We got what his team selection deserved. Just hope he learns his lesson!!

Very disappointing. I was hoping the Chelsea game was going to be the beginning of an upturn in performances, but it was more like the previous league games.

They were better tactically and technically. They pressed much better than us. They played a back three and diamond much better than we did. Only a couple can come out and say they played well for us.

Emery was decisive. He made changes early and they worked.
Poch, nothing. Deer in the headlights.
This game ended up being a battle of managers. Emery walked away with it.

As soon as I saw their half time changes I knew they'd win.

I respectfully disagree.

This isnt a special Arsenal side. Just like Chelsea last week we've been an embarrassment. Poch got the selection wrong and players have let themselves down.
Oh I agree, it isn't and I think we'll beat them at home.

He got it wrong but im sure Toby would have started had we had an easier run of games.

Torreira was brought in for something like £25m and comprehensively outclassed us in midfield today. Don't fucking tell me that the market is too difficult for us to possibly improve upon our most glaring weakness.
The opportunity missed this year still galls me.

In a game like this when the midfield cannot keep hold of the ball, Winks should have been on for last 20 mins . Sissoko cannot cope with being closed down all the time.
Not just the last 20 mins. He should've hooked Sissoko at half time to give us a fighting chance, especially with Ramsey coming on.

Well that was embarrassing... Pretty much from everyone. Obviously a few tire fire performances but everyone out there for the better part of 70mins was horrid.
