Well what a shitshow.
Up to fourth somehow.
Didn't lose somehow.

Missing dunderheads like Xhaka and AMN improved the team. Now who should start the next match.Hmmmmm?
Make 2mrw better than 2day
Match reaction... Shit!
Credit where credit is due here.
I thought at 0-1 and down to 10 men, they were done for but with some strange/inspired subs, they have come back to win.
Callum Chambers must play more and replace AMN until Bellend is back.
Well done Arsenal and Mr Emery.
Hearing Guendouzi was the driving force in that??
From what folks were saying here, I thought he was having a shocker
It's better to burn out, than to fade away.
Both are true I think of Guendouzi. Shocker in the first half, however when it's clear what the only options is that he can do, he's far better for it.
Winning this one doesn’t alter the fact that Emery’s tactics have to improve. Had we lost I would have given him just 4 games more before the sack. Now I’ll grant him six. From which I expect 12 points plus. Anything less than 7 points over the next six games, then he’got to go.
Every match is chaos. No team can achieve anything without even a semblance of control.
Auba is maybe our only reliable player and is clearly a favourite with everyone inside and outside the club. It's a no-brainer that he should be captain.
Pepe and Ceballos still not having any impact. But with no attacking pattern or consistency, maybe it's understandable.
Xhaka and AMN woeful and idiotic again.
Sokratis was fine last season but he has been shockingly bad this season. Holding has to go straight back into the team and Chambers deserves a run ahead of the senior pair too.
As soon as Willock and Torreira came on the team was far more assertive and along with Guendouzi's drive, it turned the game. If Emery can't see how much Willock adds to the midfield than it's another baffling oversight in a growing list.
Saka was our best player in the first half and didn't deserve to go off. Hopefully it won't damage his confidence.
We'll just have to embrace the shitshow until something clicks with Emery (unlikely) or he's fired (also unlikely anytime soon).
From where we were in the game, brilliant.
But no getting away from how utterly flawed this team is.
Emery is sadly looking like a dud of a coach. Really underwhelmed and disappointed with how little has changed with this team. Hard to see what impact he's had on them, if any.
