Misplacing passes and having horrible shots on goal?

He was the only one with two great attacking opportunities and he completely wasted both through pure ineptitude.

Potter just has an absolute hard on for putting players out of position and shoe horning the biggest underperformers into the team ala Mount and Havertz. 

You know he's not the handsome Brazilian lad at the back right?

Apart from allowing players to stroll past him, thinking that he needs to mark players from 7 yards away abd being outmuscled by Odegaard...Odegaard for Christ's sake, Stephen Hawking wouldn't get outmuscled by Odegaard!

He has been sh*te. As have RLC and Mount. You could take any, or all off at half time and none could complain. Well except the Jorginho family on here who liked that he made a block, got up and pointed.

 

 

It's sad seeing our fanbase make the same excuses Arsenal used to make for their soft midfielders. They either forgot or are too young to remember how we tore Jorginho types apart back in the day.

No changes. thanks Potter. good one.

I am a bit confused whether we play 4231 or diamon because ruben is sitting middle all the time

It’s just dawned on me - it’s November. We never play in November. 
Credit to the players for starting November form in October this year

Did i mention it was great what he did? I only said he was the only one who did something 

Even when Arse defenders make a mistake and gift Auba he doesn't take it.

Arteta is standing in potters box almost 

How is that a foul?

f**k off not even a yellow, cleanly took the ball, soft as f**k.

This game is a hard watch already and the ref is making it so much worse by not allowing anything 

God Arsenal are a whiney team 

That’s never a booking or even a foul. What a joke Oliver is. He’s kicked the bottom of his foot, painful but sh*t happens.

That’s a clear and obvious error why isn’t var telling him it’s not a yellow he kicked azpi

f**k off Oliver, there was f**k all wrong with that. Reactionary ref.

And this idiot is going to the World Cup imagine that 

they probably have better referees in Bangladesh or the Cook Islands or Liechtenstein

How the f**k is that a foul nevermind a yellow card. As someone mentioned earlier it was great early on this season when refs were letting more go. Completely reverted to type again.

We've got what, about 8 players out injured and I guess he can only pick who he thinks will be best suited for each game, although some of his choices are head scratching especially in midfield.  I just never have understood any of the last few managers that continually select Jorgi when we play against a pressing or fast moving team as he becomes a bollard for the most part.   Mount plays because of his energy, and Havertz because he'll come up with a decent performance at times, trouble is you don't know when that will be.   RLC is the most underwhelming player for his size and strength I have seen.  I expected a Ballack type player and he's disappointed in every aspect.   Until the midfield is rebuilt we will be wallowing around where we are now for the rest of the season, unless January brings new hope.

Ridiculous booking

Could have slipped Mount in he was clean through

They're only imitating their whiney manager.

Good start to the half.
