I recognize maybe a handful of names at best. When I was in London in 2004, a cricket match was on TV and I saw Brian Lara play. I wasn't bored for once by the sport.

Er? There’s a football match at the moment.

A lot of energy from Prague, but you can see they lack the quality of most of the teams we face. Need to keep our heads cool and not give them anything here at the start, they won't be able to keep this tempo up all game.

Nice driving run by Smith Rowe. Livened it up a bit.

God it’s hard stuff to watch

GITS!!!

Get it to Saka.

A shot!!!!!

And another one. Horrible miss really.

Or maybe not

Indeed Haz

Said it before but Saka needs to improve his finishing

On top but pretty average stuff so far, to say the least.

They ain’t much. Really should be winning this.

The halftime highlights won’t take long.

Was about to post the same thing. We're not on top of our game, but there's a gulf in quality between the sides.

The best thing you can say from our perspective is we haven’t gifted them our customary goal (yet).

Not a single shot on target in 45 minutes yet we don’t have a problem with creativity

Just football from hell. No one touch, little off the ball movement. It’s coming from Emile Smith Rowe or saka or nothing. Partey and Xhaka want to be the same player. No early ball, no crossing with any quality.

Nothing just nothing.

It’s been the most exciting bit so far. Will we cock it up playing around at the back? I always fear the worst. Brought up as a row Z man.

The bloody finishing is the problem not the creativity. Holding to Saka was a very surprising weapon that got him through a number of times. Partey so sloppy on the ball! I don’t know where that Rolls Royce we saw before his injury has gone, looks like someone has snuck in some Skoda parts in the shop. If we can get the ball in the bloody net we’ll be ok you’d think. Need some luck in front of goal.

2 chances againest this lot who are shocking. Only 1 clear cut

It’s not good enough.

It’s not any single area. It’s the slo-mo sequences of progress.

Unfortunate for Willian

I am starting to wonder when Partey is going to show us the player that we had hoped he was. He needs to make his mark and boss the midfield. Just not seeing it right now.

I don’t think he’s that player LTG. I think he’s more of a Makelele than a Steven Gerrard. Him and player x together is too much.

Pépé and Aubameyang please.

It’s not getting any better. Prague looking more dangerous. Very very poor.

Right now, I think the best we can hope for is not to concede.

Makelele? Wow. If he became him I’d be impressed.

Saka looks knackered to me

I’d like to see Martinelli given a chance.

I have more faith in a knackered Saka than a lightweight like Pépé

I mean type of player re position rather than a box to box type

Yep Arteta needs to change something. Bring on Henry and Bergkamp.

Yeah another good shout

100%

Ugh. Lacazette. Great closing down, then a Marinello moment.

Tell you what, for all our ineptitude and ineffectiveness, we’re not getting any luck.

Lucky Arsenal?

Henry would have scored that.

I had no confidence whatsoever Lacazette was going to score that.
