  • That's not true. Chelsea has a £500m bench.

    Disappointing outcome, but I had an unbelievable experience last night.   Took a stadium tour before the game.   Watched from the North End nosebleed, and would do it all again in a heartbeat.

Fucking hell.  Overcooking Saka looks like it's catching up with us.  

He should have come off as soon as the 3rd goal went in Saturday and not been risked tonight.

Agree, dont know why he was playing tonight, even less so once we were up 3-0 last week.   Sucks

The whole Raya experiment seems odd.  You lock up Ramsdale to an extension then bring in someone to displace him in the next window on loan?

Arteta said "form plays," and then he as to play Ramsdale against City, right? That goof from Raya was far worse than any Ramsdale made so far this season.

Losing Saka now losing the match. Fucking hell.

Well this match sucked. Wouldn't know who's currently third in their league table and who's just above relegation.

We'd better rinse the stink off fast.

How bad is Saka? Drowning in work couldn’t see the match.

I missed all but about the last 20 minutes. We’re gonna have to figure out how to break down teams that set up defensively like that.  Or maybe not concede a lead with a mistake

I’ve seen reports from “it’s not too serious” to “it doesn’t look good.” I’d be surprised if Arteta said anything one way or the other; make City have to do some extra prep.

100%. Much of our possession was sterile. Also… for all Zinchenko brings to our attack (and he brings a lot), he can be a liability defensively. I see why Arteta wanted Timber, and what an impact he will have. Sadly not till next year. 

I also think part of the disjointedness is due to not having Partey and Martinelli available. 

Maybe we were looking past them to City. Maybe sitting on a runway for 5 hours sapped the lads. Maybe both. Hopefully.  Because City rip us to shreds if we roll that effort out on Sunday.

Rumors of a move for Pedro Neto in the next window seem to be gaining steam. What a signing that would be

No Saka worries me. Jorg really worries me. Martinelli on the bench enhopens me. 

No Rodri or KDB in their side. This might be our best chance v them in a while. I’m a bag of nerves  

Lets. Fucking. Go.

Nervy start. Damn lucky to still be level.

Is Raya really that much better than Rambo? I don’t think so. 

Rodri does that 10x per match. Isn’t a foul, let alone a yellow. 

ZERO reasons Raya should be starting over Rambo right now. 

Fuck Michael Oliver that sack of fuck

Yep.  Raya playing like a guy trying to save his job not win it now. 

It’s like Arsenal are playing 2 left backs Trossard is so far back.   WTF

If Raya starts the next match, it’s because he’s sucking Arteta’s dick. That’s nearly three he’s given them.

He’s covering for Zinchenko, who’s inverting heavily. 

Crowd are silent. Come on, Gooners. 

Late? Studs up? 

Would be a red if they was Xhaka

 Get that, but we play that way every game and there still ends up being someone on the left when we go forward.   Today the left side of the final is almost always empty 

Hmmm, late, studs up, pretty cynical.  Probably should be a red

I’m fine with a yellow there as long as it applies to both teams 

Speaking of yellows, with Jorginho already on one, hope we see Partey at halftime

Likely would have, if not for the events at s^it last week. 

What are we doing here referee?

That’s a second yellow.  Eat a flaming cock Michael Oliver 

And Raya looks like the keepers in my daughters u11 team: nervous and unsure what to do or where to pass it. 

Yup. I’d expect we’ll see Martinelli or ESR in the 2H. 

Lots of nervous energy in the Stadium; wake up, Gooners. 

Is there a more punchable face than Foden? Fuck that guy.

Gabriel with a clear F U right to it. 

Oliver waved that second foul off so fast. Makes me think he couldn’t really see it. Maddening.

If I’m honest, we’re lucky to be level. Raya nearly gave away two, Rice headed one off the line, and we had no good looks at goal. They’re very, VERY lucky not to be down to 10. That was a red and a half followed by a clear yellow.

I’d expect we’ll see Partey for Jorg (who has been solid but on a yellow) and Martinelli (if he’s ready) or ESR for Trossard.

We’ll need to step up a few levels, because they will

I think it was a direct result of the refereeing shitshow at s^it last week. A 50/50 yellow VAR upgraded to a red, followed by Jota getting two iffy yellows in a short span. They didn’t want to directly impact the match as much. 

But still…. Two clear yellows = a red. And Oliver had best be consistent

Rice playing higher makes me nervous

Edited by Dutch

Nah, Graham; I’m a bag of nerves

Partey Kai and Tommy coming on.  For I assume Jorginho White and Eddie
