Arsenal Team Talk/Gossip/Rumours 2020/2021

Why did Xhaka back into the 18 yard box, instead of going out to him before the goal? I hate how we invite pressure.

Bobby Baccala

Why does Ceballos need 19 touches just to give the ball away

God we’re horrible to watch at times

Where’s my pen

I've put it on in Turkish (I think) rather than listen to her.

I don't get the leno hate at all. Martinez has made far more individual errors this season for villa if that's what you're insinuating.

I don't watch Villa. Leno is a liability.

That's a controversial opinion, I don't think anyone else here agrees with you.

I love Emi but you'd swear he has papal infallibility judging by some quarters on here.

Bobby Baccala

Martinelli would suit a couple of the chances we’ve gotten already

Xhaka at left back, Leno in goal. What else could ya expect?

To be fair Leno can hardly be blamed for that goal.

FixitFelix

This setup isn't working, needs martinelli through the middle. Their defence have had nothing to do. Not getting an away goal here would would a disaster.

MEGA BRO WOLF 5000

We've been very good since conceding.

I'm struggling to understand how chambers is a better option then Bellerin...

Plus what EMI had been doing for a different team has so nothing to do with how shocking Leno has been. He has been muck

FixitFelix

Jesus Partey just stop shooting

al87987

Neither side look great here.

We look a bit blunt up top, could use a striker.

Partey should be told not to shoot at this stage

Royale with Cheese

Partey would be some gaa player.

There was a lot of hype around him when he signed but is he actually a bit shít?

Coming up on half an hour and Partey shanks our second shot of the match.

lertsnim

Season officially over after that.

MEGA BRO WOLF 5000

Oh for fûck sakes

Underground

Unai looking smug on the bench there.

Alfred Borden

Making an Emery side look good. Arteta really is dirt.

lertsnim

No attempts at defending at all there. Pathetic again.

FixitFelix

Partey just letting his man trot past him, has been a disaster since signing

He's been pretty ****e so far, big difference playing under Simeone. I think there was talk he was recovering from illness. Was well enough to trick the medical personnel into letting him play for a few weeks.

Jmac24128

I've backed Arteta to the moon but this team selection has been incredibly wrong.

Also our players are ****

Azatadine

Trust the process.......to get us to 10th in the league and out of Europe for next season.

How many days between matches would it take to tell the players not to leave an opposition played completely unmarked 6 yards out from the centre of the goal? Disgraceful

MEGA BRO WOLF 5000

Jesus christ. This is grim. Will we ever get our arsenal back. Shocking. Imagine this pile of shît in the CL next season.

Esse85

Martinelli on at HT?

Ardennes1944

Our back four is Xhaka, Mari, Holding and Chambers....what can you expect.

Decent players in their own right but altogether...in a European Semi-Final....

It's a ****ing shambles conceding a goal like that. Lazy, unmotivated players. Terrible

I was thinking that last night while watching psg and city- we would be torn apart in the first round

I feel dirty for saying this but I was drooling over how City played last night. Reminded me a lot of the good old days at Arsenal. I don't recognize this shîte in front of me right now.

Penalty. Come on!!!

Underground

Our midfield are offering no protection to the back at all. Villareal seem to march through to our defence at will.

Ah that's a handball Pepe.

MEGA BRO WOLF 5000

VARRED.

Typical..

FixitFelix

Jesus just our luck think this could be our end lads, what the **** is Pepe doing there no need to put his arm out

farna_boy

I think we need Xhaka in midfield. We have too many creative players and yet no one to get on the end of it and we need someone in the centre to steady us because Partey is just getting over run.

Quazzie

Why does VAR have to constantly take everything away from us

We have "creative" players on paper only. In reality they don't do much.

Fighting off the fella trying to pull him back?

Penalty overturned. There was a handball in the build up thanks again VAR daaang

No its the opposite arm, he sticks it out as the ball drops

Ceballos is doing well but ESR does the exact same thing, not sure why they are both on together where Martinelli would be better I would have thought for balance

Bring him on now, take off Ceballos, him and Partey not working.

I don't think Villarreal are playing particularly well but it looks so easy for them every time they get in the Arsenal third, not the same at the other end.

Agreed..Martenelli needs to come on at HT, I don't want to see the usual Arteta 80th min pointless sub.

We still have a chance here an away goal will go a long waaaay COYG! Don't give up please. Our season rests in this competition
