very good defending from Christensen

2:1

sold their club to get knocked out of the europa league 

Credit to Ten Hag, changed the game second half. 

Kind of glad they went through, packs their schedule.

I'm almost finding the prospect of them winning the title as unbearable as Arsenal with the way they've been going on all season.

This is what happens when a competent manager in charge and capable of improving players, even Fred became useful, not even going to get into Rashford.

I just don't see City is pushing that hard to win the league this year, looked at how many draws they had, last 2 seasons they either busted those teams open or found a way to hold out. It's normal, players lost that hunger or desire via 5-10%, and results change. It's Arsenal's title to lose in my view, they just need to get out of Europa league as early as possible, and beat those teams they could beat to win it.

raphinha was sh*t too

Manager of the season for me. Handled the Ronaldo situation brilliantly when more experienced managers would have cowered, sending Sancho away for months also seem to have been a master stroke. Seems they have finally found their Fergie replacement.

Southampton have now appointed Ruben Selles as manager until at least the end of the season. Seems sensible after his positive audition at Stamford Bridge.

Dropped Maguire. 

Had the balls to start Malacia over Shaw. 

Brought in Casemiro. 

Promoted youth in Garnacho

Rediscovered Rashford's form. 

 

I was worried about this appointment given he represents everything about Manchester United. 

At least he left in style.

Can understand why Tuchel had us back out of the Kounde now. I didn't expect to see his game regress so badly though. Some players just cannot handle that step up.

He was always horrid defensively. 

great VAR intervention for leArse goal

Edited February 25, 20233 yr by mojo

That was a very good use of VAR. That was a blatant foul by white

I honestly have never see player does that though

 

Ben White is a f**king c**t, yes

I hate watching football at the minute. Even Jorginho is more positive than normal. None of this passing backwards and sideways and pointing, he's in attacking areas trying to pick out players in the Arsenal box. It's the same when I am watching Willian at Fulham. It makes me question what has been going on at the club for the best part of the decade. It's like we have become trapped in this negative and dull football for a long time now and no coach seems to be able to come in and fix it.

The way arsenal play is very different than us.

Just watch how little jorgi touch the ball and how free he is when he touch the ball.

We should be asking why. He was here for 4 and a half seasons, how do so many coaches not identify it as an issue and rectify it? Sarri, Lampard, Tuchel, Potter, all different types of coaches with a different team of coaches around them, but the end result is always the same. There tends to be a period where they all go through bright moments, but it all comes undone and the football becomes unbearably negative and we never get out of it.

I may not believe that Potter is the answer to sort these issues out, but one thing I can agree with people on is that we need a culture shift at the club. Something has got to change. Football shouldn't be this miserable to watch, I'm sure this is something every fan can agree on.

Quick goal from arsenal

Perhaps he's just a good pro who does what he's told by his coach ! Ditto Willian.

Southampton are still rubbish..only looked good against us.

Doubt Arsenal will find an easier win. Leicester are rubbish. 

Dortmund have taken their winning streak to 9 games today.  They've got Leipzig at home next week so hopefully Timo can put a dent in their confidence before the 2ng leg of the CL tie with us ... 

We've also been caught on points by Villa this afternoon, who have admittedly played one more game. 

reff to scared to send off c**t Fabinho. what a dirty player
