Poor result for us but Arsenal got exactly what they played for.

Saliba very lucky to get away with the challenge on Haaland. Should have been a penalty.

When was the last time we had a 0-0?
Didn’t think we’d miss Gundo this much.

Disgusting performance but not surprising as Pep has got next to fuckall from the top 5 teams in the prem this season...that's why we will not win it.
No chance.

Couldn’t have been Neville said it wasn’t before we’d seen a replay

Hard to win the League from here and the path to the CL final is hard too. Our best chance of silverware is the FA Cup which is the least important of the three. Hopefully we can get past Real Madrid. Going to the home leg.

Top of the league and they play like fucking San Marino. Are we really that good?
Who have we got next? Villa? Right, let's beat them and see where that takes us.

I was not expecting that from Arsenal. No real intent when I thought that they’d be going for the win, instead Tony Pulis took over their tactics today.

I don't think so, we've been lethargic as a unit, lack of desire and urgency?

Yet the pundits just said “credit to Arsenal”
How can you credit a team going for the league and playing a team below them and they play like that. Embarrassing

Playing against a team with two banks of five defending narrow you would expect it to be a game against Sheffield United or Notts Forest not supposedly the best Arsenal team in the last twenty years. Negative tactics and time wasting from the seventh minute. All helped by Taylor's refusal to book an Arsenal player for seventy minutes, Odegaard must have committed six fouls, Jesus if booked earlier wouldn't have been time wasting.

We must be that good, mate.
Like Beefy, I expected some attacking ambition from them but their manager is a snide little coward so it is not really a surprise that his team is in his image.

Credit to Rico. Came on in a difficult match and let no one down. Gvardiol was my MoM.

Pretty much sums up my thoughts.

Lovely to see Foden have such a shite match and then run on the pitch to laugh and joke with Jesus at the final whistle. Put more effort in finding him after the 90 than he did while he was on the pitch playing. Wanker.

Agreed. Gvardiol played well. We need a much quicker ball played through from midfield. Too easy for defenders to maintain position and keep a check on our forwards.
Stones and Walker would have made no fucking difference today

If it wasn't for the referee and Arsenal's negative tactics we would have won by 5.
Isn't it by any chance down to our manager to find a way to break their resilient defence?
