AFC Bournemouth Vs Arsenal (PL)

Great result! Decent performance although poor in patches.

I wonder if we’ll persist with the back 3?

The problem is that we are not gonna win against Tottenham playing in this way.

Reverse jinx works every time :wink:

That was a decent win considering Ozil and Lacazette weren’t playing and Mkhitayran and Mustafi were.

We really need to have them back for the spurs game or they are going to do to us what they did to Chelsea.

said the same thing to my mate when Auba scored, “we need another one because Mustafi or Xhaka WILL fuck us over at least once before this game is over” :rofl: Agree with the rest as well, 3 points here do not necessarily come for free, so good that we got them.

We won’t play this way against Spurs though, we’ll likely press them higher and quicker as we did against Liverpool and therefore will have a better performance I think. We seem to do that in big matches much more than in these ones.

Hope so because we were wank today.

I don’t think we were wank, we just weren’t good but that’s been our story this season. Being subpar but continually winning in these early stages of this era doesn’t worry me, and especially today when we’ve just had internationals and are missing top players on the pitch for various reasons.

The fact is that we don’t look good in the second half anymore. We have regressed a bit.

Just wish we could break teams attacks up instead of inviting them going the length of the field. Their goal and attack leading to last minute free kick being two instances. By no means are they the only ones either.

Cherry picking

Based on what though, the last couple of games? It isn’t the biggest sample size.

We had more quality but tactically they were better than us the way their high line pressed and their midfielders forced us back and the way they ran in between the lines. The space they found generally was like we were chasing shadows at times.

Nice. I don’t bet every weekend but I’ve not won any bets since 3 October. Going through a bad spell right now. So given up for a while as I’m sick of a wasting fivers and the odd tenner :joy:

17 unbeaten, a point off the champions league places, yet the fuckin negativity on here is truly outstanding. I’m not saying were great but fuck me, let’s get real people!
