Not so sure about that. Vs Brentford. Bear in mind that we switched to a flat back four at some point in the second half so the wing back average position is affected. Murphy and Ritchie’s position was in advance of the two midfielders. It was definitely not a 5 imo. It’s the only formation we can play that allows ASM to sack off defending.

Yeah, not arguing with that at all I just like his… balls.

I love him. Calling out Carragher live on TV is class even though he’s obviously mental.

Honestly think Arsenal are set up really well. Really good shape in attack and defence. Their recruitment has just been disastrous though

Listening to Michael Carrick talk about football doesn’t give me much hope for his future prospects. Sounds like such a PFM.

Some absolute tragedies

He looks depressed

Hayden’s given a genuine 1/10 performance here

Joelinton must be up there for most interceptions in a game this season

Schar

He is literally playing midfield on his own to be fair

I know it’s difficult with 10 men but we need to leave a player up the pitch like. They’re playing very high and we have pace up top.

Only good thing that can come out of this now is Lewis having a good game and taking Ritchie out of the team.

Just hope whoever takes Ritchie’s place has a good game

We definitely played a back 4. We only went 3-4-3 when we went 2 down.

Dubravka Krafth Fernandez Schar Murphy Shelvey Hayden Almiron Wilson Joelinton ASM We need a link between midfield and attack so I think Jo has to be central.

Think he'd based his season on DCL being in the team tbh. He's been out for ages now.

We didn’t play with a back 3 until we went 2-0 down today.

Didn't think Lascelles really did a lot wrong today to be honest. Ritchie on the other hand... my word. We had nobody who could win the ball back in midfield and it told.

he destroyed us, man

Willock is basically only useful in the final third and we've hardly made it out of our half tbf

Really, really shite cross.

Ritchie. Again.

well we've managed to break their best player at least.

Would try 3-4-3 now to get the forwards higher up the field. ASM spending too much time defending.
