performance last night. I mean, depressing that that's how far we've fallen, certainly. But quite fun anyway.

Going direct on the rare occasions we did have the ball. Playing for throw in’s and free kicks in the Liverpool half. Gaining territory. Proper Stoke City/Burnley style. Marvellous stuff.
Probably the only way we could’ve got anything. The team looks absolutely knackered. Unfortunately I can’t see them having the legs to repeat it on the Wembley pitch against City.

In amongst all the silliness. There is evidence of some actual defensive strategy being developed. You can see Arteta has been working away on it. Must be galling for him whenever Mustafi, Luiz and Kolasinac decided to **** it all up with an insane pass. Apart from City away, we’ve been in winning positions or level, until late on in every game. Mikel has made that team competitive. Even if it doesn’t always feel like it when watching.
21 points dropped this season from winning positions
Just half of that would have us in a shootout with Chelsea for 3rd
Then there’s the points lost from woeful decisions....speaking of which...why no red for Trent’s tackle on Saka.
Straight red using the Eddie case as an example.
