Awful awful defending.

Puel out.

 

[popillius]

That is sheer class from Arsenal. Sheer and utter class.

 

[Lako42]

We've shit our pants, just as i expected we would.

Youve wasted that 1st half lads, ****ing wasted it.

Man the **** up

Time for Plan B, Claude.

Can’t understand when managers are so passive. It was clearly going wrong for 17 minutes from half time and he changed nothing.

Diabolical second half from us but yes Arsenal have been great

**** **** ****. What a waste

Dear oh dear. Same as then.

It's hard to defend against one touch passing with pace like that. This is why Arsenal have won ten in a row.

Evans was miles out of position for their goal, which left Chilwell covering 2 players and gave them the space to exploit as Evans couldn't get back in time to allow Chilwell space to close the man on the ball.

Same situation again for their 3rd.

 

[Lako42]

We've gifted it to them by coming out like a bunch of frightened ****ing rabbits in the 2nd half.

 

[Miles Away]

We just concede far too many goals.

 

[SilverFox]

I’d be pissed if I had spent £100 million on talent in the summer.

Great play from Arsenal, our defence just being rolled over. Amartey at fault for their second IMO. It was great play to get in behind but anyone with half a braincell would have sensed the danger and got to the ball first to make the clearance. Amartey just doesn't have those levels of concentration and intelligence at reading the game.

I can see why Puel doesn't want to play Ricardo at RB, he's lightweight defensively but when the best alternative you've got is Amartey you're asking for trouble.

Also an interesting facet is the way Puel has Vardy back defending, not having him hanging around midfield as we are more accustomed to seeing, he's always back on the edge of the box when we're out of possession now.

Three wonder goals by Gunners. Hard to defend

Would have been nice to try and defend it rather than playing musical statues.

Ricardo replaced by Ghezzal
