Arsenal 1-0 Newcastle United - 16/12/17 - Post match reaction from page 15

[Sima]

Can we get the Vitality dog to replace Joselu at HT please?

[Greg]

Good run from Atsu. Corner.

[Lenny]

Only been half watching but whenever I've seen Atsu he's looked like the only player wanting to have a go at them.

[Guest firetotheworks]

Atsu has been shocking

 

This is the sort of thing that people forget when they're saying Ritchie should be dropped.

 

 

His one trick isn’t working because that arsenal lad is rapid. Don’t reckon Ritchie would have any luck against him tho

 

Ritchie's the sort of winger that crosses without bothering with taking full backs on tbf. Again, I can't imagine it would make much difference anyway if he was playing.

[mrmojorisin75]

Obligatory concede before HT. It's only fair.

Atsu's not that good though, he's a £6m winger and that's what he plays like. He would probably do alright against our full backs.

Rafa got a new coat?

[Mistle17]

Hayden been very poor.

 

Need to get Joselu off, appalling player.

[Hanshithispantz]

Why give the ball back there? We had it when the whistle was blown.

Because Arsenal.

[Kanj]

Sanchez shot was def going in if on target. No chance Elliot saves that

[Skeletor]

No HT goal conceded.

What if it was on target but straight at him?

[nemtizz]

No HT goal conceded.

 

That would be impossible, tbf.

[samptime29]

Hate Joselu. Terrible signing.

[triggs]

We're just gonna have to hope it stays at 1 and hope we'll score from a corner or something

[Mistle17]

So disappointing to be losing in the manner we are. Great strike by Ozil, but overall a massively shit goal to concede.

 

We essentially just have to stay in the game for the next 25-30mins at 1-0 and then start to give it a real go. Concede early on like 2nd half vs Man Utd and the ref might as well call it FT on the spot.

[Zero]

I think we played well, just Arsenal scored a worldie. Our team is solid and you can see the players understand each other much better than previous matches.

[joeyt]

Buzzing for Hayden picking up a second yellow when they counter attack us and us playing Diame in centre mid next week against West Ham

[nortoon]

The ref has been our best player for once. Usually he's only better than the likes of Manquillo and whoever is in goal.

[Dave]

We've played well there. Makes a change to concede through genuine quality rather than a glaring mistake.

 

We've knocked it around nicely at times. Need to hang in and we might get a chance.

[Zero]

To be fair if we fielded our team and played like this we definitely can get 3-4 more points during last 8 matches.

[HaydnNUFC]

We've looked a bit more solid with Lascelles back. But we're just not good enough, certainly not to challenge Arsenal on their home turf.

[nemtizz]

Was it a long shot? Seems unlike us to concede those.
