Thought we did ok and deserved the draw. We looked really dangerous on the break and equally shaky at the back. Sanchez was the weak link at the back. Did Kane win a header second half? He looks off the pace. Shout out to sissoko, like sticking a Ferrari engine in a fiat Uno.

Yeah I think so too.
I agree with that but Kanes wasnt a penalty. he didnt protect the ball but went for just making sure he got to the defender. He ought to have shot or passed it really

Because it’s a derby and Arsenal have a formidable attack.

After such a crap start to the season, but somehow managing to nick points off the scum and City, I am mighty relieved to be heading for the international break. Negatives today? Too many tbh, and what the bloody hell was Poch doing putting Sanchez at RB and not even changing it when they were getting so much joy down their left!? I have to be honest, with each piss poor performance, I am less and less confident in his ability to do the simple things right? Shoehorning defenders into positions they are not comfy in should never be an option - just make it a bloody 3 at the back!

Away at home against an Arsenal team who were fired up, had the crowd with them and Atkinson giving them every little decision. Add our missing players and injuries, it was to be expected.
no-one will care about that performance when we beat them at WHL when our team is settled and firing. It'll be a massive point gained.

He looks clueless because our tactics aren't set up to give him chances. You'd think we would build our side around the best no.9 in the world, but no.

You'd take a point if asked beforehand, but when you're 2-0 up and have so much space to counter in it feels a real missed opportunity for a big three points in a top six away game. Especially considering we gave away two soft goals, and gifted them some real momentum to come out second half and hammer at the door.
Still some things to fix though. We've got to manage key moments better and be smarter, and Neville's comments about lack of aggression and being too passive are generally correct for every game of ours at the moment whatever the scenario.

TBH I don't like Poch way of handling the players and their playing positions.
Vert can clearly play on as sub in the last few games but he continue to let Sanchez play and struggle.
Till today, he even allow Sanchez to play at RB when Serge is on the bench.
Serge is an outright RB yet he was not played to allow another player to play out of position.
This is just not going to bode well on the team morale.

Seriously intrigued. If not Poch, then who?
So stupid from Kane.

That’s a good point Jay B - 2 out the way, and two draws. We’ve been guilty of losing those away games to the bigger clubs.

A good result on the whole.
Got to sort out this decision making on the break. So many chances squandered.
Winks MOTM by a country mile. So those who think hes not had a good PL game can screw their heads back on.
Poch didn't get it right today. Sanchez at RB was madness. As was not using Moura off the bench.
Rose to be dropped after the break. Time for Davies.
