I think it’s clear what Alonso wants to do imo. Until this team defends as a unit effectively I think we will continue to see 5 at the back.

Never seen such pointless energy wasted on a player. He’s a road runner with zero IQ. End thread.

We see how the RCB acts when we are on the ball. That needs to be James. Saw Josh in Arsenal’s box on several occasions.

I'm indifferent. A part of me feels Rogers needs to be stronger there. Literally grabbed and tossed like a rag doll. Rice and Lewis-Skelly getting away with cheap fouls Pep Guardiola would be proud of and not getting punished is what bothered me the most.

Judging from these first 3 games, there is no comfort in our backline or defensive shape whatsoever. We could have 10 defenders on the pitch, and it would be more of the same. This will take the most time to sort out.

Expecting another strong team here like Luton.

+ Bruno and Merino. I think I am starting to agree that it should be Scott + Wharton instead of one or the other. Not sure why Alonso didn't bring on Barco, especially for some creativity, needing a goal.

Flat footed and 2nd to every challenge the majority of the game. We move. This game was always too early for us. #WhereisCaiceco

So f**king deliberate from Rice

We have 2 right backs in midfield while Arsenal have the luxury of bringing in Bruno, Zubamendi and Merino

Every single flick is going through our players like they aren’t even there.

He started him against Brighton

And why was Lacroix booked exactly?

f**k sake Alonso

James just falling asleep
