I am listening to commentary by Gary Neville in the match between ManU and Brentford. He's almost muted. Not as enthusiastic and negative as he usually is when commentating in matches involving Arsenal. We should start a petition to ban him at the Emirates. He can't hide his hate.

For a long time I have opined that we don't have a ball controlling midfielder since the departure of Partey. It very easy to cut through our midfield. It's also the reason that we always play sideways. Zubi is a good player but not at Partey's level.

We are playing like we don't want it. Strange this. No urgency on the ball at all.

We didn't start the 2nd half. Looked disinterested and disjointed. What did Arteta say to them?

Problem with subbing Hincapie because of the yellow he's already on is that Calafiori is capable of getting a yellow within the 1st ten minutes, and we are back to being worried for him as well.

How many times should Silva foul before he sees a yellow? Hincapie only had to foul once.

This ref knows what he's doing by not playing us advantage

Odegaard on. Eze was a bit too pedestrian for my liking.

I can't really pinpoint why we played like this. We'll take a win and move on.

@charleswatts.bsky.social I listened to you last night and this morning regarding this incident where on both occasions you said you don't think Saka should have passed to Gyokeres. These frames clearly show that Gyokeres was in a better position and Saka could have easily passed to him.

I am soooo disappointed with Gabriel. It's the Joe Linton scenario all over again. Only that this time the push was weaker.

That's Martinelli's kinda game. Give him the ball and let him run freely with the ball. Don't burden him too much with defensive responsibilities.

Jamie Redknapp thinks this season, with all the injuries, dubious ref decisions, & dubious red cards...Arsenal have been a failure. This in response to Mason saying if LFC had Virgil and Salah missing with injuries, they wouldn't have won the League. These pundits hate us with a passion.
