So for me the issue is the same as its been in years - we haven’t invested enough in the squad and yet again it looks like we are heading towards burnout. We signed 1 player in the summer and lets be honest, for whatever reason its been a disaster. Yet again Gomez is injured.
Mac and Grav look goosed.
Forwards - only 1 is in form - OK Gakpo was but is injured so he’s out of form as he cant get on the pitch at the moment. Jota is rusty, Diaz has 1 goal involvement since 2025 that’s 13 games and Nunez has never been in form for us as he is simply not good enough. Last nights cameo is proved that.
Defence - has slipped into its old ways - we leak goals again.
Alisson looks like he has suffered a dip in confidence - great saves v Bournemouth and the 1on1 v Wolves but his overall performance has been poor - what’s with the punching easy catches? That was what made Ali great - he just did the basics and made everything look easy. I have to say the kicking from his hands was great last night.
Is this a blip or is it the usual burn out for us? We are drawing to many and conceding far to many. The midfield is wide open and if Salah don’t score who is on a consistent basis?
I don’t see Arsenal dropping points in their next 4 - west ham, forest, chelsea and United. These teams are all bang out of form. Let hope they drop them somewhere soon.
