Others may disagree but I thought Guendouzi and Aubameyang were our best players in that half.

Great goal by Lacazette, who was having a poor match. The front three look good on paper but they are not a cohesive unit at all yet. Only half the team are playing to a decent level.

Xhaka is captain of Arsenal FC

Why did Emery not put priority into getting a top central defender? It is so clear we are very weak there. Luiz is a knee jerk buy, and not a solid one at that.

Torreira and Kolasinac too. I think everyone was worried about Kola but he's been fine.

Can't understand it either.

Son keeps standing in front of the ball when we get a free kick- not a word from the ref.

Why is that shove from Rose not a penalty?

No expectation of it being given, but it is a foul.

Close, and close again. Agonising.

Instant impact from Ceballos. Dangerous and creative.

Have they switched off VAR or did they decide before the game not to use it?

Ceballos is a supremely intelligent player. Wonderful awareness.

Has Sokratis been having lessons in how to be stupid from Xhaka?

That idiotic tackle for the penalty looks like it's going to cost us the win :36angers:

A kind of a relief to realise that it wasn’t a second yellow.

A good fightback but 2 points chucked away in the first half with brain dead defending. Very frustrating.

Good result

2 points ahead of united, chelsea and spurs having had difficult games at Anfield, st James park and the north London derby.

Our solid start continues

Guendouzi my MOTM.

Ceballos added some much needed creativity and composure when he came on.

Pépé looks like he could be a worldbeater......if he can get that final finish or pass right.

Annoying result. Sokratis, Xhaka and, to a lesser extent Leno, were very poor. Aubameyang was very good and Guendouzi was superb. Pépé needs time to settle and hopefully he will be a good player for us but today he was extremely wasteful.

Subbing off Torreira was weird for me and I groaned when Mkhitaryan came on and was suitably ineffective.

Xhaka should be dropped.

Game was there for the taking but when you gift the opposition two goals it is always going to be an uphill task. At 0-2 down I'd have taken a draw.

We won't be a serious team until we sort our defence out. Liverpool found that out and once they sorted it there was no stopping them.

Emery's decision making has been terrible especially of late. Could he be angling for a payoff?
