Well we aren’t going be in a title race if we keep this up so that points true.
I think at the start of season Arsenal, Man C and Chelsea were seen as our title rivals.
those two yes, Chelsea nah!!
Arne Slot On Ibrahima Konate:
“Not 100% sure if he’s injured, he felt his quad and if a player feels his quad when he’s running then alarm bells go on for me. If the game had gone on like this I would’ve taken him off later anyway because we needed Ryan [Gravenberch] in that position. The main reason was he felt his quad but we wanted Ryan in that position at 1-0. That worked well with us being dominant in that part of the game.”
After we equalised we should have accepted the draw and managed the end of the game better and we should have done the same against CP those two extra points would have kept us level with Arse but the biggest regret the club should have was not closing down the Guehi transfer.
We can’t win duels, as when we do we get penalised by the ref!
Mo seems to have lost his spark…crosses into the box don’t reach the strikers…no burning runs down the wing…but then again no service from the mid or defence…seems to try and blast it thru’ to goal…but doesn’t see the 5 defenders in front of him…bit greedy at times…but it’s the other bits that he’s not firing on…
yep, trying to save that 5 million does not seem that smart in hindsight now.
I noticed that our pace and forward movement improved after Ibou got the hook (after the last 2 matches, I think he has lost his confidence in passing the ball forward, so he dawdled on the ball and killed any kinds of attack).
I thought we would…but if we had a chance nick a goal…but then shit happens…
And…I just feel sick…
Time for Slot to prove he wasn’t just riding the wake of Klopp’s time.
Pull every single one of them from international duty and spend the two weeks sorting this mess out.
Too manynplayers brought in what a crock of shit.
Underperforming players:-
Ibou
Mo
Cody
Macca
Connor
Not the new players.
Wouldn’t that be great
Isak is good at pressing, but that can’t be done in isolation, Szob pressed early on butbth rest of the team and especially the midfield were too deep, maybe this is all down to Arne being worried with how teams are now going long.
For me if they go long then it is 60/40 in or favour, maybe higher, and therefore better than letting them play through us by having a non cohesive press
One new player cant get on Frimpong, one has been subbed in 3 of 7 league games, Wirtz is getting left out or subbed.
5 minutes at the start when we pressed reasonably. Then fell to pieces, no midfield what so ever.
Gravenberch didn’t do anything to help Bradley!
Watched that shower of shit delayed. So frustrating.
We struggle with a decent press and couldn’t even get the basics right. Seem to get over powered in midfield so easily and don’t help ourselves when we make so many unforced errors.
Could go on and slate the players. Hope AS can make the tweaks needed, because it really needs to happen fast.
Be careful you will get someone jumping on you.
