    I'm not sure what wENGER is thinking here, but then i think we can win. Depends on our attitude and application. Even with Kompany, City have looked shitty defensively.

    Back 3 it is. No big surprise. I'm a little surprised not to see per on the bench. I wonder if we've seen the last of him. A bit sad.

    One good thing is that the only Jesus in their lineup is the old Spanish one. :)

    Nice work from Ox there. Let's hope he picks up where he left off last match. Meanwhile Cech keeps us in the game. Not a bad match so far.

    Granit Xhaka with more stupidity there in 15 seconds than you're likely to see.

    Silva forced out after 20 mins. Is that from Gabriel's knee into his hammie??? In any case, that could be a good development for us. Sterling in to replace him... a very different proposition.

    Aguero tripped over himself and begs for a penalty.

    Hey Jamooky, did you watch the Crew last night? I was surprised how much we (NYRB) dominated that match right from the off.

    Nope - not a second of it (binged watch The Young Pope last night). The Crew are such a mystery to me right now.

    So Arsenal defenders playing like Stoke today? Koz's knee into Aguero's back/butt seems to have left him with a wee problem.

    Yeah - offering nothing in midfield

    Xhaka, Ramsey and Ozil are not in the game

    it's the usual mess

    Half hearted attempts at a high press - no defensive pressure in midfield

    Well, we sucked but we're not losing.

    Unfortunately, the match has gone full La Liga mode and the players are more concerned with embellishing contact and feigning injury/incredulity than actually playing football.

    You missed Xhaka's dribble?
