Andy Posted May 7, 2023 Share Posted May 7, 2023 Thought today highlighted yet again how important Longstaff is to the midfield btw. Joelinton doesn't suit that role at all and doesn't understand the position well enough against quality midfielders, he needs to be out wide interchanging with Willock.

mikejaxer Posted May 7, 2023 Share Posted May 7, 2023 Can't say I was expecting to win today, so I'm not too bothered. Started well first half, on another day we would have finished one or two of those chances and wouldn't have played into their game and ended up losing our heads.

Emotic Posted May 7, 2023 Share Posted May 7, 2023 Moral of the story is that Sean Longstaff is more of a talisman than we all ever thought! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holloway Posted May 7, 2023 Share Posted May 7, 2023 The strides we have made are massive. But in the crunchers, mentally,we have come up short. The final, the Liverpool defeats, today Arsenal controlled it.

St1pe Posted May 7, 2023 Share Posted May 7, 2023 Arsenal are really good. Shame for them they totally blew it because tactically they’re brilliant. Beat Leeds and we’re all buzzing again Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Numbers Posted May 7, 2023 Share Posted May 7, 2023 We miss Longstaff bigtime, had our chances to be 2 or 3 up before they scored a soft as fuck goal, one of those days where we just couldn't find the net couple with some sub par performances.

JUICE690 Posted May 7, 2023 Share Posted May 7, 2023 Felt like the cup final again, we just seemed a little lost in the emotion of the day. Arsenal are a great side but we should have given them a much better game than we did. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted May 7, 2023 Share Posted May 7, 2023 It’s frustrating rather than shite. With elements of not helping ourselves by doing too much shithousing and not enough footballing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keggy_Keagal Posted May 7, 2023 Share Posted May 7, 2023 Tough game . Burn poor with the ball and Bruno tended to want a touch to many or try and turn again too much. Officials not great , we didn't get the luck and Arsenal managed the big moments well. We had a good go through and they had to be at their best to get the win the day . The days of teams coming up here and not having to work and battle for a result are thankfully well behind us. Need to switch on for what will be a dogged game against Leeds . Howay the lads !!

Ronaldo Posted May 7, 2023 Share Posted May 7, 2023 Arsenal aren’t anywhere near as good as we’ve made them look there. Poor performance. It happens. Isak and Wilson together is never a plan A, mind. Baffling decision first time against that opposition. We’ve had a great campaign and might still get 4th but if we’re looking to be critical, we had £45m to spend in January on a player to consolidate the phenomenal first half of the season and apparently we’ve spent it on a player behind Jacob effing Murphy in the pecking order. Leeds now a must win. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
buzza Posted May 7, 2023 Share Posted May 7, 2023 In the first half it was very even. Second half they shithoused and controlled the game very well. not our day today, if a goal had gone in it would have given us momentum Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr Jinx Posted May 7, 2023 Share Posted May 7, 2023 That was a disaster today. I’m annoyed, not necessarily at losing but more how we fell for their time wasting and antics. Any time we got some momentum they had an “injury” - by far the worst I’ve seen all season including some of our less sporting moments. We had chances but were so wasteful. Not going to name some underperformers but we had a few notable ones today. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which we hopefully don’t need to win. If we needed to win every game to finish 4th, it was never happening. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
maybe_next_year Posted May 7, 2023 Share Posted May 7, 2023 Longstaff and Bruno are so important to how we play. Both were missing today in their own way. Still, we had chances. With a bit of luck, we could have easily walked away with a point or more against a team who are miles away from the 18 clubs below them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stottie Posted May 7, 2023 Share Posted May 7, 2023 7 minutes ago, Disco said: Frustrating as fuck Yeah, didn't give a good account of ourselves but also didn't get the run of the ball. Murphy hits a shot through a defender - hits the post. Odegaard does the same and its a goal. Schar has the biggest chance of the match and heads it straight at their keeper. Fine margins. They broke through our lines a few times first half, so on the whole we deserved to lose. Bruno doesn't look fit. Conversely Maxi did, to the point where I think he should have come on when Almiron did. It would have been a brave call but perhaps first change should have been Maxi for Wilson with Murphy left on. Murphy was involved both times we hit the woodwork. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
