Have to respond after being a little bit shit in the previous two.
Partey playing the full 90 or rather, playing enough so we won't lose with him going off.
Come on you berks!

0-3 Mbeuma hatter
Bit nervous as last week was a reminder how fragile things can be.
Absolute must win and would also like to see a performance too.
We'll win and win well.
Some changes today I think
Tierney for Zinchenko
Tomoyasu for White
Trossard for Martinelli
By the way this is what I think should happen, not what I think will happen
Arteta doesn’t do rotation
Don't agree that we should tinker this much with the team... it's like we are panicking.
Trossard starting over Martinelli is ok IMO as I think Martinelli does ok as an impact sub (though he should get more than 30mins if thats the plan).
I'd say the rest of the starting lineup should stay the same for now but I really do hope that if things don't workout early enough he has an alternative gameplan with subs that can work this time.
Would definitely like to see Trossard given a start in place of Martinelli.
Arsenal: Ramsdale, White, Saliba, Gabriel, Zinchenko, Partey, Xhaka, Odegaard, Saka, Martinelli, Nketiah.
Subs: Turner, Tomiyasu, Tierney, Holding, Kiwior, Jorginho, Vieira, Trossard, Cozer-Duberry.
Brentford: Raya, Henry, Pinnock, Norgaard, Jensen, Mee, Toney, Mbeumo, Ajer, Janelt, Roerslev.
Subs: Cox, Hickey, Schade, Dasilva, Wissa, Zanka, Lewis-Potter, Damsgaard, Baptiste.
Same f*****g lineup
Arteta :doh:
It annoys me when they don't list players by position.
What channel is anyone going to watch it on?
I know it's not on the two UK providers.
Might just have it on the radio, it's on BBC 5 Live over here.
Although it being a 3pm game, they go round the grounds every five seconds.
I'm watching it on a Czech channel and I'm over 'here' as well.
Best thing about it is the commentary is all in Czech language so there are no English idiots commentating.
Great chance for Henry. :lol:
Zinchenko. :lol:
Brentford goal disallowed.
Sounds like Brentford have caused a lot of problems for us so far.
We are getting ripped to shreds - how we are not behind, I don’t know.
Toney hit the woodwork.
He should have scored.
Fuck me - they shouldve scored from that corner as well.
Our passing is a bit off, and we look nowhere near as dangerous on attack as Brentford.
Good save by Ramsey - he had to be alert to that
This sounds terrible so far.
The collapse pending. :rose:
Martinelli over the bar - our best move for some time
I’ll take being level. Hard to see where a goal is coming from.
Will we ever score again?
Really poor again, we're so slow, Bremtford have had four good opportunities including a coiple of sitters
Time for Trossard, Tierney and Tomi
They are very blunt at the moment.
Brentford should be in front.
We have lots of possession, but it’s slow, laborious and easily defended. When Brentford break, it is with speed and Tony could have and should have passed into the goal. We have been let off this half.
On the basis of what has happened so far, at best we get a point out of this.
They've had the better chances and should be ahead.
The positives I've seen so far are few, but should still mention.
White playing far better. Back to his old self. Shame more of the attack isn't coming through their wing as they are the better players.
Both Eddie and Martinelli are not stuck in their positions like zombies and seeing more of the ball today. They've had the better chances to put us ahead.
However, like I started off with, Brentford should be ahead...we are still over complicating our attack, having all the possession and still not using the ball properly.
I think Trossard should come in ASAP, but Martinelli must still stay on as he has been the most positive player looking the most likely to score.
The game will not end 0-0, Arteta must get it into his head that we will need to score more goals than Brentford as they should be 2 up already.
Fingers crossed, but I'm not looking forward to Man City with what I have seen so far.
