That second half was horrific. Only saving grace was that we were playing Doncaster and not a decent team instead.

By the end we had Maitland-Niles, Dasilva and Willock in the backline and they're all midfielders.

by RealGunner Wed Sep 20, 2017 9:44 pm

Wilshere looked decent.

Also...ElNeny is kinda average isn't he? Not sure there is anything he is good at other than pressing.

by Jay29 Wed Sep 20, 2017 9:46 pm

He is pretty average. Covers a lot of ground but isn't outstanding defensively and can't play a progressive forward pass. He's like a more energetic Denilson. He even has the long shooting Laughing

by RealGunner Wed Sep 20, 2017 9:48 pm

lmaoooo good comparison.

Also, Arsene needs to stop using Nelson as a RWB. No idea where he is going with that. He has never played there before. Play him as a forward. He looks so uncomfortable there.

by Jay29 Wed Sep 20, 2017 9:49 pm

I just realised that we had four u23 players out there (Maitland-Niles, Dasilva, Willock and Nelson) and NONE of them played in their preferred position. We're literally using our best young midfield/attacking talent to plug holes in our defence.

Another home match. Against a much much better side tho

Not the best game in the world, but it doesn't make a difference when you're this close to your team :bow:

Iwobi and Ozil haven't travelled to Belarus. Marcus McGuane, Joe Willock, Reiss Nelson, Josh Dasilva and Eddie Nketiah will all be involved. Alexis has travelled as well, apparently.

Chambers is out with a hip injury. If Koscielny, Mustafi and Monreal are rested, it means someone will be playing out of position at the back again (possibly Maitland-Niles, Elneny or Dasilva). Wilshere, Walcott and Giroud will probably start. Nelson could play RWB again.

by RealGunner Wed Sep 27, 2017 6:47 pm

DaSilva looks big and strong. Might as well use him there.

If Nelson starts at RWB :facepalm:

First call ups for Dragomir, McGuane and Gilmour.

by RealGunner Thu Sep 28, 2017 5:45 pm

do we need a thread

by Jay29 Thu Sep 28, 2017 6:09 pm

1-0 Walcott. Wilshere assist.

Walcott hit the post about two minutes before, again set-up by Wilshere.

Willock and Nelson have started really well.

by RealGunner Thu Sep 28, 2017 6:10 pm

Wilshere

by Jay29 Thu Sep 28, 2017 6:22 pm

2-0. Walcott again. Horrible error from BATE's keeper.

by RealGunner Thu Sep 28, 2017 6:24 pm

Theo

by Jay29 Thu Sep 28, 2017 6:25 pm

3-0.

First goal for Rob Holding. Proud

by RealGunner Thu Sep 28, 2017 6:25 pm

by Jay29 Thu Sep 28, 2017 6:30 pm

3-1 now. First decent BATE move and they score. Not great from Ospina or Holding.

by RealGunner Thu Sep 28, 2017 6:40 pm

Wilshere is playing so good

by Jay29 Thu Sep 28, 2017 7:05 pm

We just got the softest pen in EL history.

Giroud 100th goal.

by Jay29 Thu Sep 28, 2017 7:24 pm

4-2 now.

Holding falling over, and Ospina being garbage.
