That’s 2 bad media interviews from the UK this week. In the other the Queen thought her own son was talking bollocks and sacked him. Maybe they should do the same to Emery.

Riley acknowledges 4 VAR mistakes including Sokratis goal against Palace.

Fall on your sword you useless ****.

Emery is our Moyes with the added bonus of falling out with his players. He's disastrous.

It feels like these managers that play high press, high intensity, running miles and miles football can only keep that up with the same set of players for a limited time. Players just can’t keep up that intensity seasonafter season. Either the manager moves on or you turn over the playing squad much more regularly.....or the manager changes tact
Even Liverpool aren’t playing anywhere near the intensity they did last season.

I’d love to experience a few seasons of that type of football though. At times, Liverpool, city and spurs have all adopted this high intensity football and it can swamp and blow away the opposition. And it is great to watch

Back 3 again. Tierney and Bellerin wing backs.

Oh my.

Well well well. Asleep at the switch again ...

gormless

Garbage defending.

Ahhh that's better. Lacazette. 1 - 1

Both Arsenal and Lacazette needed that goal badly, but we are looking like we an away team instead of a home team. Dominated on our own grounds.

The pace of the full backs and such doesn't allow Tierney to run around them as he could in the SPL. He has develop a new bag of tricks of beating his man.

Bellerin Miles off the pace. Sokratis uncomfortable when out towards the left and has nearly cost us more than once. Lacazette good goal but trying a bit too hard not a lot coming off for him, yellow indicative of that. Tierney class player on the pitch, drop of the shoulder and he's gone. Most everything else just OK. Özil some nice touches and if he stays further up and links the play him to Aubameyang could win this, but he's mostly dicking about in a deep lying midfield position. We can't seem to create much and a second yellow for someone seems more likely than a goal right now. Aren't I Mr. Optimistic.

I'm watching a version that is quality free .

Playing the strange combo of Chambers and Bellerin against the second to bottom club at home while leaving our most expensive forward on the bench ....?

Fairly accurate though, and agree on Bellerin.

Agree, we should be playing a back 4. Take Bellerin or one of the centre backs off and get Pépé on.

The harsh reality is that we just aren't a very good side. Even mediocre teams cause us all sorts of problems and our attacking play is fairly limited in comparison to the top teams.

We are not finishing top four unless something major changes.

Pépé coming on, Chambers off.

This is true. We look more like a team that will be fighting to finish top half, than one fighting to finish top 4.

Emery clearly reading the forum.

Nice one. Thanks A

Thank goodness.

Gilded edged chance go wasted. Hoping Pépé score and get his confidence up.

In that case:

"Good ebening, Unai. Now please bugger off to another club and when Tottenham and Mourinho have their inevitable falling out, I highly recommend you take up office at White Hart Lane."

If we get top 4, it won't be because we play better but because the rivals for top 4 lose form. For a time, the rest of the top 6 outside LFC and City were playing badly.

Pépé....oh so close!

Sense it will happen today.

Chambers has become a very nervous player. Takes forever to pass the ball.

How the hell did that stay out!

He's not on the pitch...

He's been anonymous second half

S'ton players dropping like flies at the slightest touch. Referee buys into every one of their con.

Was commenting about his first half

Sokratis stuff up nearly cost us ...

Shocking defending!!

This farting around at the back has to stop.

Hasn't he learnt from his past ?
