Match Thread Arsenal @ home 12:45 Sat.

[The Mighty Quint]

I think is worth bringing Del on for Clev at halftime.

I would like to see Cleverly used as an inside forward

 

[AdelaideToffee]

Besic trying too hard to make something happen with every touch. Needs to play the calming role that we're missing from Barry today.

 

[meagher94]

It's like Besic has came out today thinking "I'm gonna be Iniesta today" and he's trying all these outlandish passes that are just never going to work.

Feels like Martinez clearly hasn't told them how important a game this is.

 

[Abraders]

Cleverly CAN do a job on the left, but not always. He isn't a left winger and his positioning as a result can be weird at times.

Definitely a penalty. How did we get away with that?

Baines taking corners are more beneficial to arsenal than everton..

 

[daza_1973]

Imagine if we'd met these in the final

 

[jayden28]

So what is that, 3 corners and one set piece and not one had beaten the first man?

Normally what happens when you don't practice set pieces.

 

[LouReedwalkonthewildside]

We look like the team who played on Wednesday.

 

[itsnowak]

This game is screaming for deulofeu. Lennon has been silent. Hope he takes his chance when he gets it. Wouldn't mind seeing that change Aust halftime

 

[Foot Long Hot Dog]

Piss poor this.

No urgency, poor closing down, static midfield, no final ball.

Glad I chose a lie in over this knackers

 

[Eric Djemba-Djemba]

I bet Martinez is praying that we get a player sent off so he can blame someone.

 

[The Mighty Quint]

Besic has definitely been on a 2 day st paddys day bender

First start since January FFS, give him a break, he's been 6/10.

 

[Darth Vader]

You are on a wind up, pack it in, it's 0-1 and your posting like its 0-4.

We have been awful across the park

Arsenal are toying with us

They couldn't ask for an easier game after Wed

 

[irishtony1878]

Besic needs to set his alarm a bit earlier, absolutely awful so far, hasn't found a pass once.

 

[eternal_defiance]

If Martinez does not bring on Niasse at ht, I will be disappointed but not surprised.
