Match Thread Arsenal v Leicester

[Jeff]

Yellow for Evans

 

[Graz]

Away to the 'big six' last season:

Chelsea 1-1 D
Man Utd 1-0 L
Liverpool 2-1 L
Man City 3-1 L
Arsenal 1-1 D
Spurs 3-0 L

BR has clearly looked at those results and decided that we have to play these matches differently. So far, we have 3 points from the first of these games, so we're already ahead of the total from last season.

I'm critical when it is the right thing to do but today our approach is better than trying to go 'toe to toe' as we did last season and usually failed.

Agree, all the talk of this being a garbage performance but I think so far its pretty much what Brendan has wanted.

And we're getting on the ball now more.

 

[City Fan]

If we do and win, it's Tactical genius from Rodgers

We haven’t even had a shot within 30 yards of goal. If we win I’ll eat my hat.

Could go either way this but the way we're knocking it around you'd think we're happy with a point. Lots of backward/ sideways going on..

 

[Orifice]

I've been avoiding the goings on with this game.

I have just seen the stats on the BBC:
Shots: 12 v 4
On Target: 4 v 0

Ah well, I'm going back to carpet laying. Still, we aren't losing yet.

Maddison now stuck over on the left

Have you even watched the opposition tonight?

We are Fulham and they are Barnsley

 

[Graz]

Bringing on Under but taking off Barnes ???

Insane

I've only just seen this change - realising what I'm watching is quite far behind so better hide my phone!

 

[Singapore Fox]

Fofana again looking solid. He’s a real talent.

[Jenks]

Under superb

 

[City Fan]

Amazing what happens when we have a striker on the pitch.

 

[LoopisDeLupis]

Rodgers genius.

 

[LoopisDeLupis]

Amazing what happens when we have a striker on the pitch.

Absolutely no possibility that our manager has played a blinder in not overworking our 33 year old striker at all.

Calm, ****NG calm
