Arsenal vs Fulham, Emirates Stadium, 26.08.2023 KO 15:00

[Mac76]

One word: Zinchenko

I hate to say I told you so (well actually I don't ) but like I've said repeatrdly he gives the ball away in dangerous situations and prrsents the opposition with chances, that's why I can't stand the guy

He did it again today and undid all the hard work we did to take the lead

But of course he'll continue to be first on the teamsheet

Havertz was beyond awful and should be dropped

Vieira was excellent and Eddie is starting to genuinely impress me

Everyone else was bad to average, although they weren't helped by the team being set up wrong at the start

One, there’s no way we deserved to win today you can’t stink up the place as badly as we did and deserve all three points. Two we are all aware of what Zinchenko does, but I’d still have rather him played in midfield than played Havertz there.

Plus let’s be fair it’s the kind of goal we were likely to concede anyway, we need to really address how easy it is to counter against us at the Emirates.

I agree with you RE: Vieira…if we got do overs in football I’d have started him. Nketiah? Not so much…I think what summed him up for me was squaring the ball for Martinelli rather than taking a shot on himself at 0-1. Too many of our players pass the Buck of responsibility, Trossard as good as he was especially guilty of this.

On one hand I’d maybe buy a left back before the transfer window closes, but to be honest I simply can’t stomach the idea of Arteta buying new defenders. If he can’t get the full back position right by now, he never will
