Someone get Bentaleb off the pitch now!
All he's doing is jogging around the pitch ffs!

Re: Match thread - Arsenal v NUFC
ASM is so frustrating. Some of these incredible runs are just wasted energy when he doesn’t then look for the pass.

Re: Match thread - Arsenal v NUFC
Happy with that so far. We seemed to have a lot of the play for the first 20 mins or so then they came into it more as you’d expect. We still need a CF who actually looks interested at getting into the box tho...
I'm the scumbag outlaw. You're the pillar of justice. Neither of us like looking at ourselves in the mirror. Do we have a deal?
Re: Match thread - Arsenal v NUFC
Decent game so far. As always, ASM looks dangerous and probs most likely to create something - though he needs to get his head up. Joelinton has looked decent in build up and general play, but not really offering too much in terms of threat - yet. Lazaro looks promising, though his crossing has been at best OK so far. Rose solid. Bentaleb alright but lost the ball sloppily a couple of times.

Re: Match thread - Arsenal v NUFC
Almiron and ASM are just too fast sometimes, they do all the good stuff and isolate themselves, I can forgive Joelinton for not being able to keep up, a part of the problem lies in us having him drop too deep defensively, once our counters start hes practically in our defensive midfield. We need to give him a little more freedom from he defensive work, get him to sit at the halfway line or play off the last man, this gives him more of a chance to get forward and takes a man off of the countering player.

We are never going to score from open play when we only attack with two players at a time.

Feck it. It was coming.
Re: Match thread - Arsenal v NUFC
Been coming
Re: Match thread - Arsenal v NUFC
You don't need to score really.
38 games in a season, so if you draw 36 games 0-0 that's 36 points, score two goals and win the remaining 2 games 1-0 that's 42 points and safe.

Re: Match thread - Arsenal v NUFC
Oh dear.
Re: Match thread - Arsenal v NUFC
Fernandez’s fault that. He should be going into that, clearing ball man and everything else.
