hopefully this means Eze and Timber will rest during the international break. still plenty of games to play so even 2 of our players being fully recharged will make a big difference

CC final is just a formality really, it’s 1st vs 2nd, the two teams competing against the title, it could be any competition there’s a lot of weight on this one an Arsenal win here will change everything starting as soon as the final whistle goes.

Saka captain us to the trophy

where is Bernardo’s card, that’s 3 now. absolute joke this officiating so far.

Hincapié getting booked on his first but nothing for Bernardo after 3 is an absolute joke btw City got away with it all that half

if officiating was fair Saka wouldn’t be eating those tackles City target him cos they get away with it, put them at risk with a yellow and see how it magically stops and if it doesn’t, they’ll get a player sent off

Can’t stand Bernardo I swear down, if he was at any other club he would not be this protected, Portuguese Caicedo when it comes to tackling.

since the beginning of the second half this has been one of the worst things I’ve seen from us in a very long time. just hoofing it back at them every single time, inviting pressure and now 2-0 down there’s time but we have to fix up.

we’re constantly taking long to start playing, holding it and passing it around the back for what what do you expect like, no desire to go and win a final?

glad ben white clattered that mug tho

things happen but the difference is we didn’t come out in the second half as the same team and deffo weren’t looking like we wanted a goal holding the ball too long, passing along the back too much and hoofing it back at them when we got the ball

yes we’ve still got 3 chances at a trophy but it’s really not the point, I expected more from this team, to at least lose with a fight and not make it easy for them. wanted to see the mentality and hunger for trophies, our support simply deserves more and it’s that simple.

city 100% deserve that win, second half was all them. was the perfect opportunity for us to establish ourselves and beat them in a final. we were content with being under pressure, no desire to score, late to make a move, the fans simply don’t deserve the lack of effort shown.

just make sure you get me the league title and my parade.

need to beat them at the etihad and tell them the title is ours.

and just like that, it was the international break

Saliba is still my favourite player and our most important signing, consistently performs and is never loud.

first Arsenal player I’ve put on a shirt since we signed Özil.

when you need a long haul to get to the emirates, be easy. I can support my team offline too, the internet doesn’t define my experience of Arsenal so I genuinely don’t care

people saying they’re glad they didn’t go wembley, the same plastics that jumped on when we started to get better. can’t wait for them types of people to stop “supporting” us
