Also looking at the way Madrid were able to turn city around with those diagonal balls to the wingers passes that xhaka used to make all the time zubimendi and rice both more than capable of them and getting Saka and Martinelli in behind.
If Kai had taken his penalty like vini just did my head would be on mars.
Abysmal penalty that.
So much for strongest league in the world premier league teams getting pumped in Madrid, Liverpool losing in istanbul us and Newcastle drawing and Chelsea losing too. 6 teams through to the last 16 and probably 4 going out
Former arsenal trialist Fede Valverde putting man city to the sword with a first half hattrick.
I would say that there wasn't a player that started today you would rate as over 5/10 on that performance maybe the fullbacks, but the rest were straight dog doo
Christ I thought our refs loved to get involved. This guy loves the sound of his own whistle doesn't he.
I'd make a change at full back too probably bring on Myles for Hincapie
Proper late stage Wenger feel to this. Concede a second goal late chasing it too much is on its way.
How is Gyokeres always going back post?
He's just not the trigger he needs to be in the press stands there pointing instead of actually engaging.
The amount of touches Martinelli feels like he needs to take when he isn't just breaking through on goal is so frustrating.
Eze just isnt contributing enough again in the press, in the defensive actions and offensively. He's too central in attack and too static in defence. We look more like conceding again than scoring
Absolutely shocking start to the half. Pedestrian throughout the game and now behind.
I have been wondering when a team will do that more from kick off everyone is obsessed with playing it back to the keeper and pumping it long.
Think we could've targeted andrich more.
Play him with madueke on opposite wings and have them swap wings occasionally, that would be my answer
It's far too predictable from him and you have players making 90 yard sprints to get up with him for nothing
Saka has to be playing the ball in the box there. That's so poor.
Mad watching Gyokeres win fouls that prem refs never seem to give
I'd wait til after the Liverpool game to sack Tudor imagine a new manager coming in and having to go away to anfield first game.
The goalkeepers in this game have been abysmal by the way
He's getting fired. Disgraceful management.
Nah I actually feel so bad for that kid in goal.
Trossard has turkey in summer and particularly galatasaray written all over him doesn't he.
I like Gabriel Sara I seem to remember there being rumours of us being interested in him a couple of years ago?
It felt like gala were too scared to pass forward when in possession in the centre of the pitch first half often passing back towards the defence but they've moved it forward more already in the 2nd half. Liverpool sleeping at times but they will get so many chances against this team.
Decision making today has been so odd, few times the pitch has played a factor but still.
All for trying to play around the back but to give a ln 18 yr old making his debut his first touch that is bad. Be more aware.
Martinelli has been awful today. With trossard injury left wing is a big concern.
