White off injured. When will it end. Not only do we have the most injuries we must have to make the most substitutions for injury during a game.

Are you sure? Hincapie looks to be at CB.

Timber lucky to escape a booking there.

I think you're right. Hincapie at FB.


Not any more, MLS to come on. Timber RB and Hincapie to CB you’d think. Frustrating for White. It can happen. Hopefully a small set back in his overall encouraging return.

Should be at least 4-5 minutes added on time already. Time wasting is rife from the wolves gk all the time

What are you talking about. At least he’s trying unlike many others. He’s had to move all over the field just to see the ball.

The free header a yard from goal? He didn’t move.

White was starting his 4th game in 10 days, after a long period out and a long injury last season.

Lacking any sort of quick switch or riskier straight balls at Gyökeres. Reminiscent of a boxer on the ropes but the attacker still plodding methodically. Like you won’t get sucker punched sure but you do have to get him out of there.

4 minutes injury time. 3 injury breaks and tonnes of time wasting from wolves. Shows why teams do it you just get rewarded for it.

Absolute joke - 4 minutes only added time. Could easily be double

This is why we are stuffed. Wolves time wasting and ref adds a paltry 4 minutes on. Bent.

We’re a team who prefer to wait for high quality opportunities but I think when you’re playing a team devoid of confidence, very limited and determined to sit in you really need to build pressure by taking shots.

We can’t have a half v wolves where we don’t force their gk to make a single save.

Why do teams not get yellows for time wasting at the Emirates?

What a stinking pile of garbage of a first half. Arteta will be ropeable.

It’s the mercy rule. The viewers can’t take much more of this. Absolutely dire.

One of the worst halves of football from us so far this season. Not doing anything you need to do against weak opponents who defend deep. No one taking a risk, no one shooting, no one making a run.

Ødegaard and Trossard on for Eze and Martinelli?

Like last season the effectiveness of our set pieces have waned due to particular players being out. Gabriel a big miss. Were relied on them to break games like this open.

We need someone to inject some pace. I still think we need to hit a straight ball to whoever is up front, Gyökeres or Eze if he’s rotated into there, and then just fight for the second ball in a dangerous area if it doesn’t come off. Rice and Zubimendi are well capable of hitting a quick switch to Martinelli. I don’t know how we think we’re going to undo them otherwise.

The whole team apart from Saka and Martinelli had no urgency at all. Just stood around at points on the pitch barely moving. Zero shots on goal at home against the one of the worst performing teams in PL history.

That’s a pretty fair summary of the game.

We are taking so long to get it into their area. Even when we've had transitions we've taken it wide. We need to be ratcheting up the pressure and get the ball bouncing around in the penalty area.

Trossard understands the concept of getting it forward quickly.

Doherty booked, should have been booked earlier so wouldn’t have been able to make that challenge then.

Set piece - we remember how to be dangerous from them.
Saka’s corner hit the far post and went in off the gk
