Forshaw playing well I think. Doing the job he's in there for. No real bad performances from anyone so far

Disgraceful histrionics, including Arteta trying to do his best Klopp impression to influence the ref. At least the commentator I have called it out for what it was.

Forshaw has been a calming influence in midfield.
Sometimes we are a bit rushed in there, but tonight he’s sort of ticking things over nicely.
Apologies if anyone is offended 😁

That clip of MB suggests changes at HT.

Came into it after the first 15, deservedly on terms, but I can’t see where our goal is coming from.

Decent first half but again lack a cutting edge.

Get Gelhardt on.

Another game where we should be comfortably out of sight at ht, but we have nothing without Raph. How many great chances has James wasted as he has no end product? Drameh and Llorente been great so far. Roberts anonymous as usual. Time for Bielsa to stop deluding himself and get Gelhardt on instead.

Good footballer, I've missed everything so far as tea was on the table so with all the pessimism was expecting Arse to be at least 3-0 up

Probably our best performance of the season so far!

Defended well & made some good breaks albeit choosing the wrong option on a couple of occasions.

So I couldn't get a ticket in Arsenal end as you had to be a member before the draw was even made, yet countless empty seats? 🤔

If only Raph or Pablo were on the end of those chances. :cry:
