Kiwior has been superb
This has been Havertz best game in an Arsenal shirt, Trossard needs to come off for Martinelli
The goal was frustrating but all in all decent first half from us. Vieira and Nelson are playing really well, and Jorginho is holding it down too.
We need to capitalise on how they’re double teaming on Leo.
+Nelson,Kai,Kiwi -Eddie,Tross,Aaron
I’ll be disappointed in our team if we concede a shot in the 2nd half.
havertz been fantastic at everything but the final ball.
think nelson has been wasteful.
vieira struggling to get in the game.
zinchenko very uneven, he’s been careless with the ball but also made some good things happen.
obvious foul on ramsdale for goal. we need to be more physical, because hooper is letting hammers commit murder out there.
Ramsdale shirt pulled in any other comp and it’s a foul. Ofc this shit cup has no VAR. Thought we’ve been fine. Subs to make and you’ll see the gulf in quality by the 90th. Arteta is always more conscious about who finishes a game rather than who starts it.
Ref is so shit
Paquaeta acting up with the fancy chest touch but so the ball so much that Havertz got a leg in to take it away but the ref give a free kick cause Paqueta decided to flop
Fuck
We need to be more clinical ffs.
1-0 down at half time in the league cup due to a goal that VAR would have disallowed - pack it in boys, season’s over, club’s in crisis, Arteta out.
I’ve been content with our performance.
Considering this is their first team barring one or two, they’re shit.
Just an awful awful goal to concede. We shouldn’t be conceding goals like that. That ball should have been headed away even before the Ramsdale foul, no VAR is stupid.
And the only other thing is that it’s apparent that our final third play is just not there, good interchange and passing though, I’m happy to see that.
Just need that final ball.
We can beat these lot.
Just mad about that awful awful goal.
We’ve been quite good honestly. Should’ve been a disallowed goal but whatever. Jorginho has been put in some impossible situations at times and gotten out of them well. Some good deliveries from Fabio and some nice movement from Reiss. Havertz has looked good as well, and actually dangerous at times.
We can still very much win this tbh. It’s quite an open game
Only other thing I’d say is Vieira needs to step up more, needs to turn out to the right more often, he has the close control to do it.
And Zinny’s passing has been safe but his usual line splitting passes haven’t been there today so far.
But I’m confident we can have these lot in the second half.
