First of all we where total rubbish and a point is all we deserve since Palace where also shit!
So disjointed again. Too many issues to mention them all is players lacking sharpness like Lacazette at fault for the first goal. He's walking and moaning while Milojevic plays the long ball to Zaha who turns chambers inside out.
Chambers fought well and showed heart but was rubbish defensively.
Our best player was Guendouzi again. Our only real good player today. The issue is we have nobody in our midfield who can move, is a attack minded and can link the play in the final 3rd. This inconjuction with Pepe who still struggling in open play, Laxa who was dreadful until about 60 minutes where he finally started to find his feet. Auba was rubbish today
Terrible reaction from Xhaka being substituted. He's been over emotional there. The issue is clearly he's pissed at our toxic fanbase, but you have to keep your cool and accept whatever they say. That's now created a bad energy. He was playing very well up until he's totally misjudged it, been too passive and allowed a cross for the equalizer which the blame also goes to tierney and luiz who ball watched it all happen rather than communicated.
The worst thing is unless our front 3 really step up theres few to no ways to improve this team. We had so many attacking mids, we had 4 last season and we decided to sell two at the end if the window which has quite clearly landed us in deep, deep shit and now we don't really have one who is reliable and ready to play so this absolute shitshow we are seeing is the truth of how crap we are as a club overall from top to bottom.
Its not just our players, our manager is clearly feeling the pressure and it don't look good its starting to look as if he's running out of ideas, its a shame because there isn't too much he can do. This is a huge collective failure. He looks like he may walk if things don't click for him. He looks genuinely fed up.
Our fans. Just a joke. The Ozil chants say it all, this is how toxic we have become. Our rivals are not just happy we are playing poorly but us booing our own players and supporting this guy is once again making us banter club number 1. Maybe we should just play him every game and give in into FC Ozil, and when we get battered 4-1 again by Chelsea we can take selfie next to the scoreboard or something.
We need to wake up, we need to understand we dont have a great well balanced squad. You can see despite playing so badly there is a lot of fight and passion, but our players lacl quality, they arent that good! My biggest concern is we We may aswell sack emery now and get this freefall to happen now because thats where we are heading. Unless we grind it out to January we are in clear and present danger of losing our status as a top 6 club and being London's very own version of Everton.
Am i calling for Emery's head? No, but I'm going to be honest after today i can't see him staying longer than this season even if he gets top 4. We are rotten, broken club now and its going to take 2-3 years to rebuild.
