Re: Leeds Utd v Arsenal Match Thread - Rodrigo starts up front as Sinisterra returns

Post by Chilli D »

Don't deserve to be behind (or in front) imo
Only Rodrigo knows why he elected to attempt a 50 yard cross field ball to Struijk when he could have held it, turned, played it back to Aaronson, anything rather than what he did.
We desperately need to get Sinisterra on the ball more.
Several wasted chances when in good positions.
Still in it at 1-0 but if they go 2-0 up, we're done.

Still he's got the privilege of Rodders and Paddy showing him how to do it :lol:
No it wont

They arent going.

Which is why Italy have used over 40 fringe players since disqualification

Including Gnonto

This Italy International tag isn't all that it first appears

Get Joffy on, at least he'll have a dig. But as Jesse said he ain't brave enough to put the young uns in.

Darko and Gnonto should at least be on the bench, wtf did we buy them for?

The co commentator saying Meslier has to do better sounds like Paul Robinson to me. Would rather listed to Andy Hindsightcliff.
He got beaten for power - if he stands up to guard his near post he has issues if Saka shoots across him. Somethings you just have to accept it was a great finish. Everytime we make a stupid mistake we get punished.

Just blasts it high, wide and ugly :shock:

Agree with this

Can't compare getting into this Italy squad to past one's

Italy arent the power they once were by a mile.

Aaronson wasnt though.

Poor decision to have a punt from there

Harrison running around a lot- but there comes a point when you need a 10 who can actually get his foot on the ball and create something. We have plenty of industry and not a lot else. I imagine our passing stats are awful again.
