Nothing to see here?!? We've been poor up top but the 12th man(VAR) hasn't helped!

Don't like the way we have setup today with Timber playing the old OZ role. It's made us extremely one sided because the LW has been completely isolated all game.

Continues to be case of not taking the opportunities that are presented to us. I just have no faith in this team to actually close the deal on winning anything right now.

Even if we use the excuse of playing 3 away matches in 7 days, this result is still unacceptable.

We played far too casual given the opportunity. We played not to lose….very jimbo-esque showing today

Of the 4 matches we are in the middle of right now, this was the most important one so naturally we don't play the strongest team and then we don't make the right subs. But even with that, this team should be winning this match.

But now we will play a fairly strong side against Inter in a match that means next to nothing

The first hour was just so cowardly. Somebody, anybody, take a risk. Why do we complain when other teams take forever to take a goal kick when we are just gonna pass it between our CBs and the goalie over and over anyway?

It's just so discouraging how the creativity and urgency have been ground out of our attacking players.

When you make 4 changes before 60 minutes, you are admitting you made a mistake with the attack.

Martinelli and Gyokeres don't go together well. Trossard should start when Vik does. Saka should start

Martinelli and Jesus play well together. Play them in ****ing pairs.

I'd also say at this point I want Merino starting up front until Kai is fully fit.

Gyokeres is just not good enough. He doesn't stand out at all and on top of that he's not a great finisher. He's a JAG. At this point give me anyone else up front.

I'll forgive the breakaway by calling it great defense from Murillo, but the other parts of this video are demonstrative of Gyokeres' issue. He's clunky with his touches. And he's usually a split second behind where he needs to be when the ball is there for him.

If you say you hate the state of politics in this nation and you don't get involved in it, you obviously don't hate the state of politics in this nation.

Hilarious that we all think our team is broken, and yet our lead gets bigger.

It's just nerves and it's going to be that way until we close the deal on the EPL or Champions League. We're really good and this has been fun, but it's also become agonizing.

I've found that if I remember this is supposed to be fun, I mostly don't react too negatively. I take this into account when we get a negative result:

1. We're really damn good. We've been one of the best teams in the world for about 3 years now.
2. Other teams are good but they also have struggles.
3. No coach or player is perfect and they get it wrong from time to time.
4. This is supposed to be fun.

Apologies if this comes across preachy. I've enjoyed the past three seasons so very much. We've been a little unlucky but damn we're good.

I've also never been an Arsenal fan where we won anything but the FA Cup. Some of you have been putting up with this team for much longer.

I'm fine with him going out on loan, but he has to play. Marsielle run a similar attack to us with 1 CF supported by two #8s. Problem is Mason Greenwood is the right #8 (Ethans preferred spot) and is their best player so he isn't getting benched.

Wonder if they might use Ethan at RW?

I don't remember the teams involved but I saw a loan deal structure a week or so ago where the team taking on a player had a relatively high loan fee that would be reduced for every start. I likenthe general idea of that. Charge a stupid amount if your player doesn't get to play and a very low fee if he is a regular starter.

About as much rotation as one can expect. Good to see MLS get the start, great to see Mosquera back and ready to start. Let's hope Eze can use this to find some form.

Excited to see Eze and Mosquera

I expect a lot of conversation about Saka starting today instead of last Saturday

I thought Madueke was pretty dangerous on Saturday

Amongst the starters, he was OK. After Saka and the other subs came on we had our brief stretch (albeit briefly)

But I think the general consensus was if you could go strong only once in the last week, the Forest game was the game to do it.

Agree with the premise, but I don't think not starting Saka was the reason we drew at Forest.

Leggy defense and nobody closing down the shot. Eze and Merino not dropping back with the runners
