Too much space in midfield. We need to get extra bodies in midfield because those three ain't enough.

I would be picking the U23 for first team games right now. They’d hopefully at least show a bit of fight

We are utter utter shite. Outplayed again by a team at the bottom - and comprehensively so!

Since the last 2 months of last season, our form has fallen off a cliff. Wtf is going on?

We could have an extra man on the pitch and it wouldn’t make any difference.
When we play a back 4 it’s too loose and outnumbered
A midfield 3 is weak and outnumbered
And a front 3 isn’t enough to trouble teams with shots

Pépé on

1-1. The most energy I’ve seen in 5 mins from us

Lacazette near post header. He’s been threatening to do that all game when he hasn’t had his shirt tugged!

A bit of fight and we're level. I hope Freddie gave them an almighty bollocking at half time.

Simply raised the tempo, suddenly were pinning them back we’re making runs and the game changes.

Now concentrate

Ref has let so much go today. So many free kicks should have been given and he’s done nothing

Leno saves us again. Exasperating how we never engage the man with the ball, just backing off and backing off

How isn’t that a yellow? Look at what Sokratis got his yellow for. Pépé was potentially away on goal there

OMG when they break we have no midfield cover at all. You would have thought that the lessons of Norwich would have been noted.

I find it amazing how a defender facing his own goal can get the tiniest nudge, go over and always win the free kick. If the same happened in the penalty area it wouldn’t be given as a pen

Obvious yellow for Luiz but where was the one when Pépé could have been through.

Once again, how is that one not a yellow card. Lunges in and very late on Kola. Well worse than Sokratis foul.

This ref is really not being consistent and fair

I think they are basically stupid John ..... even though we have more intensity and have equalised there are so many times with break away opportunities .... they pause , pass sideways , backwards by which time are well and truly organised ..... can't figure how the players don't see this .

I think playing Aubameyang and Lacazette together is not effective for us. Aubameyang is better in the middle.

So, our usual 2 goals conceded then. Sigh.

Well you've just been proved right.

Marking is non-existent.

God help us.

Once again no one engaging the player on the ball. Awful off the ball work to not track a runner, mooy allowed all the time in the world to put a simple cross in for a free header.

We looked lovely for 15 mins but we’re officially dead again

Xhaka with no effort to try to head it away. Our players are just so lazy.

Why aren't there "Kroenke out" chants in the stadium?

Looking at the worst run of games since the 70’s.

By the end of January we will be in the bottom 6

The heart has gone out of all the players and out of the club. Clubs without heart get relegated

So the trainer comes on to treat two Brighton players, Arsenal about to take a corner and the ref doesn’t make the Brighton players go off the pitch!!! How can he pick and choose when to apply that rule

We should have this corner v 9 men

Let’s be honest a home defeat to an average team has been waiting to be fished out to us over the last 5-6 home games

Well deserved Brighton. You will have to work a lot harder and fight a lot more for all of the rest of your victories this season.
