Everton v Arsenal. 4th Feb. 12:30

Coady clears off the line!

Well, not quite off the line.

Garbage

how bad was that free kick? :rolleyes:

BT Sport commentary being ahead of the action is very annoying.

Commentator mentions of Dyke so far = 1,276

mentions of Arteta = 0

0-0 HT. Quite rancid so far.

jesus they could have scored three times now

Very frustrating half. Everton fired up and competitive and we've been off the pace. Xhaka and Martinelli having a bit of a mare on the left hasn't helped. Hopefully they will tire 2nd half and we can raise our game.

miserable first half, we've been really sloppy and they should be winning

If things don't change in the first 15 mins of the second half we need Tierney and trossard on

I'd earlier said we've been really lucky with our fixtures...however it seems that luck has run out because clearly this is the worst time to play Everton.

Anyway, I think we need to score in the first 20 mins of the next half and if we don't we might be looking at a draw...maybe even worse.

In tough games like this everyone needs to show their contribution and there should be no passengers...Arteta needs to learn that Xhaka is exactly that in a game like this and we need a goal threat playing his position as he has got into the most advantageous spaces from what I can see so far.

Zinchenko's also been stinking the pitch up but no doubt the fan boys will just wheel out the touch map again, as though passing aimlessly back and forth equals being effective

Come on Arsenal. :bow:

Great save from Ramsdale, offside or not.

Doucoure should have scored before then

We can't afford to lose that battle in the middle when clearly they have neutralised our danger men on the wings.

A lot of players have been below average today; White again, Eddie if you ask me, Martinelli...I could go on and on.

But I'm thinking of how we win the game and subbing Zinchencko for Tierney has been proven not to give us any added goal advantage.

Ref looks like Almiron’s dad

stupid corner routine

Martinelli's so fed up with playing with Xhaka he's started to go over to the other side

Mykelenko :haha:

Odegaard blasts it over.

Odegaard :doh:

Partey and Martinelli off, Jorginho and Trossard on.

Fuck sake

1-0 Tarkowski. Fucksticks.

Fuck off

it was only a matter of time

The collapse :rose:

Come on Arsenal!

Calvert-Lewin off, Maupay on.

From our performance so far you'd never think we were 5 points clear at the top (for now ofc)

it's been awful

Mykolenko booked, run at him!

Absolutely hate playing teams with a new coach

Get ready for the foulfest

Pel?

dreadful corner

No of course not.
