you know it’s bad though when even Saka doesn’t look much up for it.
I think football just isn’t going my way today.
and yes it is a pretty sizeable indictment to Arsenal that I’ve felt bored enough that I’m pulling an FM game up during the actual game.
Certainly feels like White wasn’t meant to play today from his passing so far.
Seems like half our team is carrying an injury. They all look like they need a 4 week vacation to recover.
Turns out playing 2 90s with 10 men means everyone is shattered already.
Tbh this game has been making me realise just how much White does for us. Ødegaard also obviously a big miss.
I expect Liverpool and City to win, if we lose here that’s a hefty gap that I don’t feel like we’ll be able to close.
If we lose here it’s basically over. There’s no way we can expect City to drop that many points. And Newcastle have been woeful this season, there’s no reason not to beat them
tbf St James is always a hard game just cuz of the stadium but like. yeah no we are disappointing. And that’ll be two losses in a row in the league.
That’s the thing, though, Newcastle have been terrible all season. So of course they revive themselves for when we come to town.
City drew here and this was a chance to finally make up some points, and we’re squandering it.
Playing with 10 men has decimated our squad on top of international injuries. Both things that we really need to address in future.
how do we address the first thing, pay refs?
If we’re really not going to win the league, then I think we need to hammer the refs. Call out every incident. Take the fines. We can’t pay off the refs - we’d need to outbid Qatar.
has to score that.
That was a really flat poor performance. We really don’t seem to lift our game unless we are playing the big big clubs.
aghhh so close for Rice.
That was a very impressive defending run from Gordon. Kinda just shoves Jesus out of the way though, sell it more and we could have had something.
Honestly this might be the first game that I’ve seen from them which really makes me think Gordon deserves to start for England on the left.
I’m just watching this as if I’m a neutral now cuz fucking hell I’m not wanting to be angry about us right now. And I will be, so much will be, when we actually lose.
I’m already angry. We’re TEN MATCHES IN.
And already we’ve been on the end of so much controversy, so many injuries, on top of just plain playing badly today and at Bournemouth. I’m so tired of it.
If you want to win the title everything has to go right for you and you have to hope that the corrupt bloodsucking leeches that run the PGMOL don’t decide that they don’t want you to.
Back to the dark days, where we’d have the ball around their box for 20 minutes then in 5 seconds they’d have scored via 3 passes
I swear, this club and the manchester blue cunts are the worst clubs in the fucking world.
Don’t forget Chelshit.
eh, they’re just funny rn. Under Roman, yes; now, they’re just trying to do a Leeds. Still cunts but not at “worst in the world” levels.
I miss Ødegaard.
We don’t gel the same way without him.
the commentary talking about us being good at stats and still losing the title last season. brother that’s cuz city bought the fucking refs man
I do appreciate that we’ve gone back to basics and actually having a 4-3-3 now.
Let’s pick ourselves up
