This is one of those very rare games when you feel Sonny might not be the best option. He thrives on the break and rarely produces his best work with too much time to think like you get against a low block like this.

Why are Roma diving around and wasting time??? This isn’t a cup final fuck my life.
Jose would be desperate to win this game though wouldn’t he. I imagine he’s made that clear to his players.

I think you squad build best when you buy players for the first XI, buying squad players doesn't work. You can buy a youngster but you should recruit quality on top of quality.

I don't find this Summer's signings very exciting, Bentancur and Kulusevski were legit disruptive purchases for the first XI
What a strange post.

I mean for a start Perisic, Bissouma and likely Lenglet have been bought for the first XI.

Aside from another CB which we are looking at signing, where else could we realistically have improved the first XI with signings anyway?

Squad depth has been our main issue and we’re addressing that really well.

Also there is such a thing as a budget. You can’t just sign 5-6 first XI players as we don’t have the money for that.

We’ve by all accounts so far made some very very astute signings and probably 2 more to come, don’t really get your criticism at all.

Also it’s pre season, you need a squad for a whole season in many different competitions.

Maybe give them more of a chance to show what they can do, rather than a friendly in the middle-East.
Let remember that many were writing Deki off after 20 minutes against Brighton.

I'd also add that in my opinion, Bissouma, Perisic and Richarlson are all top class, Lenglet looks decent and Spence is a prospect.
What more do you expect?

It's pre season but this referee is abysmal. Shouldn't ref another game this season ?

Unless it's every arsenal game in conference league and he keeps them in it deep into the quarter finals... Before they get shafted by a VAR controversy
