Also made some good runs - one in particular that Giroud could've easily played him through on goal in the second half but messed up the header. Flamini was ok but they were allowed too much space in the centre. We definitely missed Theo but Gnabry had a good half until he was subbed. Hope he's ok to return next week.Orbinho @Orbinho
Aaron Ramsey made the most tackles in today's game (6) and the joint-most this season (26) along with Lucas.
Wasn't a good performance. Everyone was quite sloppy again. Some players definitely need a game off to recover. Quite clear to see our midfield apart from Ramsey are not fit enough atm to handle 2 games a week for 6-7 weeks in a row.
