His 1st touch is always so intelligent. If there's a bit of space to push the ball into he will do exactly that no matter how much pressue he is under. So laid back, he's class!!

His running power adds so much, but then he also has the footballing ability and IQ that some many have that have graduated from the Arsenal academy have. 25mil seems a snip for him really

been critical of his subs for a while (even before the injuries got ridiculous), but he got them spot on today.

Thought he was pretty poor again, and if Sarabia went down after a similar kind of desperate grab that he did against Luton, he would have given away a pen

I've missed a straight forward win, with a clean sheet and being left with that "we're a very good team" feeling

Tinnnnooooo you beautiful bastard!

What a goal!!

what a difference it makes having subs with quality, that arent just coming back injury.

That's unbelievable from Bruno

Miley looking lively since coming on, would be good to see him Bruno and Willock at some point

Maybe should have been Gordon off for a rest instead of Murphy, but sensible subs really

Should have made so much more of that counter

Thats a lovely cross from Murphy

If you have an easy pass to your main striker there, you just have to pass.

Not bad considering he's not very athletic

Was bricking it for him, I've always hated bringing on a player that late, just for a pen, especially after 4 months out. He must never miss I'm training.

If the decision was to rest him, there's no reason for him to be on the bench. If we're losing changing a CB doesn't make much difference, any back 4 injury and Tino/Burn come on and we reshuffle

Depending on how he comes back, this Kelleher looks like he'd been a decent next GK.

I'd put him at fault for both Set Pieces tbh. 1st his reset time was very slow after the initial save. 2nd was shambolic for me, just flapped at it. I have seen nothing of him, at any point of his career to think he's any good, and clearly most clubs think the same. As he's sat with us as 3rd choice, with no-one else wanting him.

Not sure how that makes any difference to what I said

Am I the only 1 that didn't think the whole game was THAT bad. Liverpool was atrocious for me, this was nowhere near that. They came out on fire for 25 mins and we were terrible, but then got a bit of a grip, it didn't make a dent. 2nd half we had a mad 5 mins, but had much more of a grip on the game. You have to take into account teams are barely having shots on target against Arsenal atm, they're just in great form.

The whole back 4 lacks pace, when I was managing I always tried to set with pace in every other position. So if my RB was quick the LCB would have to be the quicker of the 2 CBs. We don't have that luxury unfortunately. He had a higher ceiling the Schar in my mind, so getting in a pacey RCB and LB should be priority in the summer.

It's a mixed, ones like Pope, Burn, Anderson, Murphy, Barnes Are all freak injuries. Even Willocks initial one and Joelinton aren't really normal injuries from fatigue.

The difference between the 2 is that Dubravka makes a few saves that wouldn't expect him to make, and then Karius let's in a few that you'd expect him to save. Dubravka's biggest problem is we're now disappointed he's not making the great saves that Pope would make.

Agreed, and without a keeper that sweeps up well the defence will play 10/20 yards making that gap even bigger and this midfield less capable of getting back. Give Willock or Joelinton 5 yards to make up when tracking, I'm backing them a lot of the time. Give anyone 10-20 they've got no chance.
