Half of these guys look dead on their feet. That is the real issue

I'd say I can't wait till 2nd half subs, because this midfield and Gyokeres have done absolutely nothing all match, but I'm not sure how soon Arteta makes them, nor how much they will change the attitude of the players. This is some horrible footy to watch. No possession and booting it long all the time.

i’ve watched loosely but it seems Seagulls have had all the possession and we are chasing

team plays like a small club when they have the lead

They play right through our press. It's so sad

Then we boot it long and they do the same thing, over and over.

Long goal kick each time and of course it goes right back to Brighton. This team playing with a lead is just ridiculous. Its awful

Rice and Zubi still look dead arse tired, haven't noticed it from Timber yet, but I'm sure his legs wont hold up the full 90.

Man. That was so bad.


We started off giving the ball away out the back, scored a lucky goal, then basically defended the rest of the time.

Dreadful half. Only watched 20 min of it, but we look like we did at the end of Brentford and Wolves.

MLS/Norgaard/Havertz in the midfield.

Move Eze to LW.

Rice and Zubi cannot finish this game.

You knew it would be ugly when we saw the lineup

Rice & Zubi both out there, along with the Martinelli & Gyokeres pairing

Might legit be the worst half of football I've seen us play.

42% possession, 1 total shot, getting outdueled 26-22, out passed 234-176 and more than half of our passes have been in our own half.

We will drop points in this one if they make some changes and/or wake the frick up.

Mitoma off, could be good news, he always seems to terrorize Arsenal defenders.

Yes that was pretty shite. We desperately need to rotate more, almost everyone seems to have tired legs

We need another one or it’s going to be dropped points again.

Arteta HAS to make 3 maybe even 4 midfield/attacking subs at the 60th

They can't win any 50-50 ball and everyone is just going long ball without even thinking

Defending in their own half all match

They are pressing with an extra guy in the front line (on Raya) and we can't win a 2nd ball to take advantage when we boot it long

We are allergic to passing the ball into the box.

33% possession this half. Sheesh

Playing not to lose, and players are too tired to do anything about it
