Would like to see kante on second just to control the midfield more.

64% possession and Arsenal had only 1 shot on target LMAO

On the Saka booing, like many others I feel it's no problem at all, as long as it doesn't cross the line. 

Regardless of his age or overall quality, he's Arsenal star player, so if there's anyone we should be booing it's him. No point trying to destabilise Xhaka or a scrub like Holding (well, now we do have reason after that tackle). 

You can boo player all you want. That is fair game. This is pl, not elementary school football. 

But the moment you use racial slur or stuff like that, then you are out of line.

Our fans can be a disgrace.  Booing Saka everytime he touches the ball. Absolute f**kwits.

The arsenal player?

Who dived/threw his legs into Reece to try and win a penalty?

Who missed the decisive kick in England's first cup final in 55 years?

I would be more worried if our fans were cheering him!

All part of the passion of the Blues away support - plus need some noise in the library

Totally agree, no problem with the booing. It's standard football, he's their best player so it's bound to happen.

They shouldn't cheer him but when he's the centre stage at the subject of racism and with our fanbase having one of the worst reputations, its not exactly effing smart and once again brings down the feel good factor around the club.

Are you Saka's uncle or something? 

This obsession over the England players who missed and got racially abused needs to stop. 

For me, he's arsenals main man (how sad is it that a litteral child is their star player?) and we owe him no support while he's playing against us. 

I support him off the pitch 100% but not on it (and I'm not even English) - f**k the racists, but f**k Arsenal too! 

Need to tighten up at the back as a team this half

Saka, Smith-Rowe and Tierney. Too much pace and movement. Jorgi can't get near them. Saka in particular giving him a really hard time.

Nice problem to have when your weak link is one of the 3 best mids in Europe.

Hope we get that third goal, that would kill them off completley. Either that or put Kante on to win the midfield battle.

Lukaku is a cheat code in the box

You can tell we aren’t used to playing though a number 9 yet

f**k Southgate for picking him to take the 5th pen

I don't think it is a  nice  problem when the one who run circle around you is Tierney, saka and Smith Rowe. We are not talking about Messi, neymar, Suarez her4

Also baffling from the outside.

Yeah roll it into his feet, holds it up but then other players don't know how much to commit from there, it's like they're just waiting for him to spin and shoot

Just feels good to have a proper presence up top. No more lightweight centre forwards... 

Rom clearing the corner header

Saka is the new Zaha LmAo

Saka is a decent player with bags of potential, and he has certainly given Jorginho the run around so far, but I don't think anyone considers him one of the best 3 midfielders in Europe.

Was he not talking about our weak link (and Jorgi being top 3 in europe?)

Started well this second half but feel that our defending is a bit chaotic and they could score.

Jorginho is making me nervous today.

He's been shortlisted for the UEFA POTY, technically a top 3 players in Europe tbf, along with Kante and KDB
