I think a draw was fair, don’t get me wrong if Jt wasn’t for a poor keeper I don’t think you would have come back but at the end of the day he’s a part of the team, a part of the old, so f he’s crap you deserve to take that shot and score. I think Sanchez is robbing you guys I HOOE he ends out somewhere awful like China, he shows glimpses of talent (dribbling past four people) but then when it’s backs against the wall e suseless, Ozil however tries all game. I wrote of wilshire I think he’s useless but today he was good, got away with a lot of fouls. but good. Your young lad played well against Salah and before the game, his wasn’t a bad result, overall I can’t really moaand ladies n but seeing how we threw away goals was frustrating. Good luck for the future fellas and meet Christmas it was a strange game very end to end but riddled with mistakes on both sides. Have a good Christmas get home safe and don’t eat too much (the NHS has enough issues as jt is) good game gunners!

Hello JohnBarnes.
Definitely Sunday League football today.
Two teams who can attack but can't defend. Gutted in the end, once we went 3-2 up, but a point was fair based on our 2nd half performance.

All the best to you and your family over Christmas mate.

After 30 mins, Sanchez has already lost possession 11 times.

22 Dec 2017 19:04:04
Hie gunners and Ed's. Any idea why Kolasinac has been dropped to the bench in favour of Maitland-Niles. I personally see Kola being a better player. How Wenger doesn't see this I wonder. I hope we win 2 - 1 tonight.

Merry Christmas to you all!

I hope we don't look back on this as another wenger clanger. Maitland Niles is a future player and not at left back. Kolasinac the best right back in the german league last year and not getting a game mmmm. Only wenger knows why we have two left backs in the squad and neither at left back.

22 Dec 2017 19:42:05
I was wondering the same.

Maybe Wenger is going to try and outgun Liverpool with more emphasis on attack than defence.

{Ed025's Note - or maybe hes just a pot herb...time will tell i suppose dags..

22 Dec 2017 20:34:57
Left back, not right.

22 Dec 2017 19:59:58
I think you could be correct Ed.

22 Dec 2017 22:38:14
The only reason I can think of for why AMN started ahead of Kolasinac is that he probably has more pace and better acceleration (Kolasinac is a big guy) to better deal with Salahs speed. Saying that, I think he had an excellent game.

{Ed025's Note - he did really well CB..

Why didn't we buy usain bolt to play left back then, instead of a recognised international left back.

22 Dec 2017 08:40:35
liverpool fan in peace.
hoping for an entertaining game tonight. will be interestingo see which team shows up for both sides as both have the same inconsistency. play the way you played against manU and you'll win it as we have no DDG in goal to put it mildly. hope you don't though:P
good luck for today and merry xmas to you all.

22 Dec 2017 09:01:20
Cheers mate and a very happy Christmas to you and your family too.

22 Dec 2017 10:17:39
Merry Christmas mate.

Lets hope Santa doesn't give you 3 points today. Although I have a feeling our defence will.

22 Dec 2017 13:09:27
what ever result tonight the game will be a great advert for premier league.

22 Dec 2017 16:09:49
This is the thing it’ll most definitely be entertaining, I fancy us winning but quite honestly both are capable of hammering the other, or they could both not show up, both teams have an abundance of talent but both have or faults too. Cheers to a good game and may the best team win! (Hopefully us, I’ve had a crap day haha)

22 Dec 2017 17:29:18
It will either be a great advert for bad defending or great attacking or maybe both.

22 Dec 2017 17:53:20
So was the Arsenal/ Utd game mate.

Great advert but no points.

22 Dec 2017 22:05:06
as said, we have no DDG in goal.
In the end, fair result.
wish you well for the rest of the saison.

22 Dec 2017 04:14:04
Looking forward to tonight's match, I just pray that we defend deeper from the start and don't concede the game in the opening part of the game by handing Liverpool a couple of goals, as we did against Man U.
In the window we must sort out our defensive problems and bring in a CB and a DM. In the summer we have Mertesacker retiring, Chambers should be moved on and in my opinion (Pthers will disagree) Monreal should be moved on, particularly if we are reverting to a back four. We then have Bellerin and Maitland-Niles as RB's, Koscielny and Mustafi as CB's, I belive Holding would benefit from a season on loan where he [lays regularly, so we need 2 CB's. With Koscielny carrying a long term injury and 33 next birthday, his days are numbered. I wuld like to see us buy 2 CB's such as Rugani and Van Dijk. Hopefully, N'Zonzi is on his way and Saha would be decent shout to replace Sanchez. It really is time that Wenger loosened the purse rat rings and in addition moved on players such as Coquelin, Chambers, Monreal, Walcott, Holding (loan) , Akpom, Debuchy, Perez, Campbell, Ospina, Cazorla, Reine-Adelaide (loan) and Elneny.

Merry Christmas RG.

22 Dec 2017 09:35:34
RG61 - Merry Christmas G62.

22 Dec 2017 14:27:57
Monreal should be moved on? He’s been our best defender this year.
