Agreed but they did not miss 4 sitters like we did. When you see the highlights of the 1st half you will weep.

Thought Auba missed the worst of the game and Xhaka coming off at half time said it all. Cech was very good today.
Not unexpected defeat, lineup was shocking, Emery deserved to lose that game on that alone, didn't learn any lessons from the first match. Defence was terrible as expected considering we haven't really invested much in that area, Auba had a poor match and should have put away his chances.
2nd half learnt next to nothing and to be honest, 1st goal we scored the keeper should have done better.
Emery will get time but not if he keeps sticking with some of the duds he insists on playing, needs to show a willingness to change things and ability to learn. I think our poor summer of recrutiment might come back to haunt us, 5 goals shipped in two games already so defence isn't looking good.
Let's not get carried away...
Abysmal defending, abysmal finishing.
A nice effort but as usual we fall short in these games against the top sides.:sleep:
