For Arsenal to get back in this, more shots on target are needed and Rice must do better with the corner kicks and free kicks.
Nwaneri running directly at their defence would be handy here as the half progresses.
Good changes here. Timber to RB. Trossard to be left?

Need to salvage a point at least here.
Very unusual the amount of passes that are being sprayed here. Hmm.
Geez. Rice. That was the chance.
Have created almost nothing otherwise this half.

Not just the defeat, but the manner of that, grave concern for Arsenal.
Barely laid a glove on them. Toothless when the game was there to be won.

Season over. Decided in the summer when we ended the transfer window with a weaker squad than when it started. Complete mismanagement by Edu and Arteta. Nobody to replace Odegaard, no option when Saka not working his magic. Sterling didn’t even get off the bench. Clown show.
I called this as soon as he got injured zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
Lack of depth was always going to kill us
Nah sell ESR and loan viera, a 17 yr old kid has got this as back up to odegaard (who he doesn’t trust enough to play), was all too predictable unfortunately (robbing Peter to pay Paul with Havertz and trossard)
As I said good luck relying on set piece fc to get you through three months.. it hasn’t made two
Or you hoped he had a plan b and c which he doesn’t.. this is squarely on arteta and edu’s shoulders right here

Simply not good enough. Newcastle are a good team and best Spurs and Dre with City at home but the lack of chance creation is damning.
Arsenal did well initially, to adjust to his absence and still produce chance creation and managed to win some key fixtures.
The problem was that as time went on, the length of Odeegard’s injury, we haven’t shown further adjustments. The 4-2-4 in possession or 4-4-2 shape is now well known and established, and quite predictable. Exploited by Bournemouth and Newcastle away, when otherwise we’ve been imperious away in the PL in 2024.
This result was damning for me. It was beyond just the 1-0. It was how comfortable they looked, negating Arsenal time and again. Silly fouls. Sprayed passes. A general lethargy throughout and lack of intensity. Arteta has lots to ponder here.
Away to Inter mid week then away to Chelsea next weekend.
At least City lost.

Title chase slipping away. 7 points behind Liverpool. Massive concerns.
Last as long in Europe as possible, gather all that money before being inevitably knocked out and maybe jag a cup. Prem is done.

I think last night has shown it’s not seen up as many think. City haven’t really looked themselves and will slip up again. Liverpool have been grinding out results but will also be prone to stumbling.
It’s on us to pull our finger out and improve and take advantage of those mishaps. At this stage, it doesn’t look like happening.
After next week’s match away to Chelsea, the fixtures should open up a little bit. By then Arsenal would have ticked off away matches to City, Villa, Spurs, Newcastle, Chelsea and it’s only early November.
Now obviously we cannot drop too far back off the pace and yes this makes the Bournemouth loss even costlier. However it’s still only November.
In late December/early January when there’s a couple of PL matches a week, all it takes is one good week for Arsenal and a bad one for Liverpool or City etc and that 7 point gap can turn into 1 or 2 points.
None of that stuff matters however if Arsenal produce inept performances like this morning though. It’s reminiscent of that run last year just before the Dubai break changed the trajectory.
Arteta needs to get this shit sorted and also has to demonstrate more tactical flexibility than he has been, if this is to be turned around in similar fashion.
Lastly it’s cute when opposition fans/lurkers start reacting to posts like on this page haha
Agreed, being in Arsenals shadow his entire life AND a norf fan. Feel for him.Lastly it’s cute when opposition fans/lurkers start reacting to posts like on this page haha

Never a good place to go. Really disappointing.
Edu is leaving

Report: Edu set for Arsenal departure
It is being reported this morning that Arsenal’s Sporting Director Edu is set to leave the club. The Brazilian joined as Technical Director in 2019, and was made Sporting Director just under two years ago – giving him responsibility for all aspects of the football club, including men, women and...

Wow that’s seemingly out of nowhere. Wasn’t that long ago he received that promotion to Sporting Director.
Something seems amiss.
Heads needed to roll after Newcastle.
Looks like it is forest for Edu
