Good comeback but disappointed, two players challenge Kane for a header Spuds capitalise and score, the player called Xhaka otherwise known as clown gives such a dumb penalty away .
Still not sure on the starting line up though I hope Dick isn’t going to chop and change week in week out.

The fact that sky commentary team and pundits can't help but laugh when taking about Xhaka says so much, and if your a neutral how he plays is funny and brilliant to watch I'm sure.

The bloke is a moron and again I say I said from day one he is a liability
My worry is Dick doesn’t know his best XI.
01 Sep 2019 19:34:59
Since his debut no player has given away more penalties.
01 Sep 2019 19:38:59
I seriously don’t see what Emery sees in Xhaka and what papa was doing jumping in when there’s already someone with kane on the header for the first goal.
We played really well and we showed a lot of promise but again two stupid mistakes costed us.
Xhaka need to go even before ozil or miki imo.

I'm not sure he sees the problems mate, he seems so fixated on the chances we create he is almost oblivious to those we concede, it's Arsene like thinking concentrate on where we are strong and pretty much accepting where we are weak as an occupational hazard and choosing to ignore it.
He just looks like he's punching at top 4 level and just doesn't have it in his mentality to be able to accept and grind out a 0 0 if and when necessary to achieve long term glory over 38 game season.

Can’t be too annoyed as there were plenty of positives, but it’s the same players holding us back, and it’s no shock that Xhaka and Papa were at the heart of gifting Spurs 2goals with Papa doing his best to gift them a 3rd. Also Not sure why you pick Torreira and play him as the advanced midfielder, leaving Xhaka to protect the back 4. Surely if you play those two it should be the other way round? Time and again Ericsson was allowed to wander into space in front of the back 4, receive the ball, control it, lift his head and still no Arsenal midfielder in sight! On the positive Pepe is going to be a great asset, and looking forward to seeing him and Bellerin down the right wing.

Agree Epping, selections and positions seemed to leave big questions.
01 Sep 2019 20:12:54
Emery said he liked Papa passion to win the ball when he joined Xhaka in letting Kane have a pretty much a free header in the build up to the first goal and encouraged all his players.
I thought Guendouzi was brilliant today but you can't have all 10 outfield players playing like him where they all chase the ball all over the pitch for 90 minutes.
It's what under 7s do.
Passion without organisation and discipline is sure just passionate chaos.

I had a manager at work a few years ago that used to stick up for me and others at work in any situation in public but if we had done wrong, we got a right dressing down in private. I have never forgot that and what goes on behind closed doors is private and different. that's how you gain respect. Any other way and it quickly becomes a problem as i am finding out with a new manager now at work.
