Helped them getting the goal but they've settled and probably should have had a second to be honest. I understand intensity being our identity and all that but I think we've taken it too far here. We've looked sloppy, wreckless and lacking in control with out play. It feels like we're a second away from another Liverpool (H) moment of madness from one player that ends the contest. Totally agree. We've not played badly and have had chances but it's Arsenal's game atm, not ours. We're not in control. Down the hill second half, fucking come on.

Shak Posted May 7, 2023 Share Posted May 7, 2023 Some half of football Feels like we could have been 2-0 up yet we could also easily have been 4-0 down. Isak is incredible every time the ball comes near him, like. I'd really consider going 4-4-1-1 and playing him in the hole and getting it into him as quick as possible. Would also reduce how often we're getting caught in possession in midfield. Would like to see Gordon on for Murphy, Murphy has got into several good positions and his final ball has been dreadful every time. Not sure how much Maxi has in him but hopefully he can get the last 25 or 30 minutes. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ketsbaia Posted May 7, 2023 Share Posted May 7, 2023 Mission one is to keep the goal difference down here, we're lucky it's only 0-1. We look alright in attack but, unfortunately, the defence has completely freefalled in recent times. Hope Eddie finds a way to turn this around because the current plan won't score.

SAK Posted May 7, 2023 Share Posted May 7, 2023 Still only one goal in it despite their chances. Need to cut out the mistakes and getting drawn into their shithousery. Murphy off for ASM. Bruno to sit and protect the defence a bit more. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Prophet Posted May 7, 2023 Share Posted May 7, 2023 Good half of football that. We started really well, but Arsenal have taken control since the goal. The midfield definetly lacks a bit of energy without Longstaff and they've cut through and looked dangerous on the break. That said we've still looked dangerous, there's definetly more goals in this.

pubteam Posted May 7, 2023 Share Posted May 7, 2023 We went to sleep for their goal, why didn't push out. I wish Bruno would stop this silly little fouls as well, he does it too often in dangerous positions. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gbandit Posted May 7, 2023 Share Posted May 7, 2023 Willock seems to scuff a lot of his chances, I don’t get it as he’s capable of striking the ball so cleanly. I think when he goes for too much pace he messes it up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Down the hill second half, fucking come on. Aye, that goal changed it because at that point Arsenal have the win they need to keep their title chance alive. At 0-0 they were much more open and chasing the win more. We have still opened them up at 1-0 though, there is a goal in this for us and if we get to 1-1, I think we’ll see out the draw.

The away leg we were clinging on to a draw. This game it's very even between two good sides. We definitely still feel very open on the counter. The goal was really disappointing. My footballing pet hate is not closing down players on the edge of the box. Isak feels a bit wasted and marooned out on the left against this quality of opposition. Not like he can really link up with Burn on the overlap either. Need to stay defensively sharp and switched on. Think we will score, but not sure we won't concede again at this rate. They were ready for Isak on the left. Putting two men on him as soon as he gets it and there’s little threat of Burn doing anything. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beren Posted May 7, 2023 Share Posted May 7, 2023 I'd take off Murphy and bring on Almiron at the half, and try to get Isak more central. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr Jinx Posted May 7, 2023 Share Posted May 7, 2023 I agree, we have created plenty of chances and been wasteful. We’ll create more. Id like to see Isak get a few minutes in the centre.. Wilson has been decent but we have options so why not switch around. Our midfield has been the weak link today. Giving little protection to the back line and falling for their shithousing. Eddie needs to read them the riot act at half time and I think he will. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
