Saka down. FFS the left back position is cursed. We have so many damn injuries.

I love Laca as a player but he's been in horrendous form for a while now. Play Auba at striker for a while until Laca finds some kind of form. Ozil isn't impacting games very much. He's working hard and has a couple of decent passes or flicks every once in a while but it isn't enough. We also need to play quicker in possession. Pepe for Laca and Willock for Ozil are 2nd half subs I'd be considering if I'm Arteta.

I said it the other day when I was rotating at a chaotic clinic. Lady had no clue what I was talking about.

I’ll probably say it next time i see the underwhelming buffet setup at my keynote speech luncheon for the Hilton Head Aquarium for Obese Marine Mammals in July. State of those watercress sandwiches

Their Left back runs all the way down the field with the ball and they opted to foul him hard when he wasn’t a threat causing a yellow, just wow

Way too slow today. Maybe we can steal a win in the last few minutes.

No creativity, no flare, no one touch passing, just more of the same

Everyone expected a better performance after playing a man down against chelsea

You’d think we play better against lesser opponents with all the talent on the team and a new manager

One positive, it was a clean sheet

I think Arteta has done a good job since taking over but he's not beyond criticism. I'm so over him playing Auba on the wing especially since we can't score right now to save our lives. He's a world class striker and he is being wasted out wide. It worked last season because Lacazette was in great form and playing well. Laca is helpless right now. You can not play Auba, Laca, and Gabby all upfront together. They are way to similar and it robs us of creativity. Ozil isn't doing enough either. Try Willock or Ceballos. Defensively we are far from perfect but since Arteta has come in we have done more than enough to win more than we have.

If we could just get the Laca and Auba from last season to go with how our defense has played under Arteta we would be getting results. It's very frustrating atm.

I'll probably say it when I've pooped my dick out at London Heathrow after stopping at The Flying Chariot at Terminal 2 which always makes me dyspeptic.

I love this team, but that was a game I was up for and we couldn't even put a decent half together. 10 straight wins against that team. This should have been Artetas moment.

I just dont know what to think. That reminded me more of the end of Wenger.

Oh, and Laca would have scored. frick everything var. Use it properly you dumb fricks.

I will say this. I think Xhaka has handled the situation well. I didnt like his not apology, but under Arteta, he has played his role very well.

Laca and Auba both missed some great chances today. Just wasn't meant to be.

Europa was always going to be the road back to Champions League this year.

The only worrying thing since Arteta took over is that we have improved defensively, but our offensive production has decreased. Believe the announcers said Laca now gets a shot off every 50 minutes instead of 20ish minutes.
