Another one slips through the net!!!!

So, I watch the match in a pub just outside Euston station mainly full of gooners and one other city Fan. Mrs by my side playing on her phone completely disinterested, as we spent the last night in the capital taking advantage of some 10 quid train tickets and a booking.com hotel deal for a night to do the things she likes which was the theatre and a museum and if I do this I get no grief about the football! So it's a no brainer and I secretly don't mind it either!!!

Anyway the game! We start well against a soft arse Arsenal team who were there for the taking with the goal from Sane. However something just isn't quite right with us at the moment mentally. Before the game when I saw the line up I turned to my wife, who could have just as easily been a brick wall such is her enthusiasm and stated we have 4 potential captains on the bench in Kompany, Zaba, Yaya and Kolarov, but not one on the pitch! Then asking the question what is this Navas move. Me I repeat from my last post play Zaba, then play fernadhinhio and Yaya in the middle and between Kev and Silva work out who is going on the wing or interchange and finally drop Sterling to the bench with Navas not even figuring. If we had done this we would have crushed these bunch of fannies!!


But instead we keep letting them back into it and only seem to raise are game once they score?! So another two points wasted in a season of missed opportunities which are ability deserves but our tactics and mentality do not.

Strange season this but still enjoyed it a lot more than the depressing Pellegrini era and still fully behind pep, he just needs to figure out a couple of things about us and our subtleties as a team and a club!
