wojiech costs us the first goal


Mostly Monreal to fault for that, but yeah, he should've done better. Reddemed himself afterwards with some good saves though... But wouldn't call it a good game.

But he stopped us from losing the game, made some very nice saves.

I never once even thought about this team winning the league. But its kind of a good reminder to Wenger and his deluded fans here that we will be 3rd while the window is close and they can keep spouting how its impossible to improve this team this window

Monreal was the worst player on the pitch.

this was a good point in the end considering how shite we were in the 1st half
city and utd will drop points at some point if they dont either one will romp it so it wasnt a be all end all result tonight
ozil was brilliant in the second half by the way and we could have nicked this one

Just got in (Traffic was the worst I've seen in a long time)

So the game ended 2-2...Got to say, I'm disappointed. Considering the players they were missing I was expecting the three points. I haven't seen highlights yet but imo this was two extra points lost rather than one point gained
Ramsdale
(Turner/Hein)
White Saliba Gabriel Zinchenko
(Tomiyasu/Niles) (Timber/Holding) (Trusty/Kiwior) (Tierney/Tavares)
Odegaard(c) —- Rice
(Xhaka/Lokonga) —- (Partey/Elneny)
Havertz
(Jorginho/Vieira)
Saka Jesus Martinelli
(Pepe/Nelson) (Nketiah/Balogun) (Trossard/ESR)

Arteta and Flamini was not why we where shit today.

Everyone simply played like crap, Arteta in general isn't a great player anymore.


Yes, it is. Arteta and Flamini just aren't good enough on the ball, and if your central midfield isn't good enough, you can't control a game. I hope Wilshere/Ramsey's back for Crystal Palace.

Offcourse the central midfield is not good enough. But it takes drop of points for people to see that. Its like whenever we scrap a win we are amazing and there is no weakness. Suddenly we drop points and people are talking about bunch of players not being good enough. I bet you had we somehow sneaked a 3rd they wouldnt say this. There is a reason why even teams come to our ground and dominate possession. The central midfield is too weak physically and not enough mobility

Yeah top 4 totally over the f***ing top but I do this that this, unless we strongly and quickly bounce back, is a potential indication of title being beyond us. Not 100% but it's not a good sign.

Noone can deny (truthfully) that City look the strongest team now. If they maintain this look I fully expect them to take a very good point haul from the head-to-heads. Considering I do not expect the same from us, that's immediately a points advantage for them...plus GD. SImply put, if we want to win the title, I seriously think we need to do better than them against the other 16 teams to 'catch up'.

We need to hope they drop points tomorrow I think.
Go Cannons!!
