We continue to find new club lows.

So it's EL or bust. And by bust I mean financially busted and down to having the players do their own laundry.

Playing well enough to deservedly win but losing on penalties to Fulham at home is probably a top 5 result this season.

Maguire and Ugarte are going to miss the game on Thursday. Dorgu being able to play in EL makes covering for Maguire a little easier (De Ligt in the center, Mazaroui and Yoro either side, Dorgu and Dalot on the weeknds.

That midfield though is just going to be full on vibes. Ugarte is the only one who can cover any ground. Collyer is available again, but doubt he'll start after being out for so long.

Only 7 United players on the bench. 12 allowed.

Holy crap what a lack of awareness not to play advantage.

Zirkzee with an incredible piece of skill to spring Dorgu who plays a very dangerous cross that some Hojlund can't get a touch on and Garnacho can't even force a save despite having all day from 5 yards out.

Even when we do manage to put something dangerous together with a 2-3 good passes, the finishing is just never there.

This team is so bipolar.

Sociedad keeper kind of pulled an Onana.

Sociedad has done nothing since I started watching so of course they get a penalty from a careless Bruno arm.

Every player who was trying to play that ball had there arm in that same position. Every one of them. And it did nothing to the play. So a play with an xG of basically 0.00 turns into a goal.

Handling is just so freaking dumb.

Good save by Onana

Thankfully their Scandinavian can't finish either.

This is starting to get a little scary after them not doing much and then getting gifted a goal…

Team has no idea how to deal with adversity. Like night and day since the gave up an unlucky goal.

1-1 is better than expected. Gotta get first goal at Old Trafford or else we're likely done for.

You are injured?

You are happy to get what you think is a foul and now discover its not so you sit down?

Ok. Game over. Tweet tweet tweet

No worries. Old Trafford is a fortress!

Unfortunately, it is a fortress made of toilet paper.

And it rains a lot.

And the roof is leaky.

But… a fortress!

Lindelof at CB. What could possibly go wrong? What could possibly be worse?
Showstopper

We have a few players that are running out their high contracts. Unfortunately most of them are starting today (the ones that aren't hurt, anyway).

Edit: I'm not sure it isn't the right call, though; this game doesn't actually matter much except for pride and rivalry, but that is enough for a crowd to remember and hold it against a youth. So playing the aging out failures probably is the right call long term.

Zirkzee is just standing around. At least Hoilund runs. He's not producing anything but at least he's active.

Totally out of nothing all half. If I'm Arteta I'm livid.

We (arsenal) can't score in the league
Showstopper
How long do you want to ignore this user?
I'll go out in a limb and say you are scoring more in the League than us.

Well fair, that's basically your only way to score

Playing a bit of Ole ball today.

Taylor just set a 12 yard wall. 1 yard above the D to 1 yard behind the spot.

If Rasmus cuts over in front of Rice he draws that PK. A smart striker does that.

How in the world did we not score there?

That was a fun half. And it points out just how Jekyll and Hyde this team is.
