Just turned on the Madrid game, it’s Fletmanaman Not for me Clive.

10 days off and some of them could barely get a sweat on.

Lovely, nice to be back. 10 goals for Gyokeres puts him level with Ekitike, who cost a lot more. 2nd half was his best for the club. Eze sensational and the rest all very good. Special mention to Mosquera who was brilliant at right back.

Eze is probably the only player in our squad who doesn’t kick that goal into the stands or try two more touches, and for me that’s why you have to accept some of the other stuff a little more.

Playing ok, still with the silly fouls. Really hard slog with all the front players at the moment who feel like it’s an effort to control the ball. Couple of times with Gyok where he’s not done anything wrong but a better player makes more of it. Trossard is the not grumpy one. See how we go.

Every time we play Newcastle they have the full bruise brothers out, once again they rock up at the Etihad with a Steve Bruce team and have their tummy’s tickled again.

The best thing about this is how much it will annoy some of the other names on that list.

the title isn't gone after tonight but they cant have another "serious chat" and carry on. Fundamentally something stops this team from playing suddenly in matches, which is most likely pressure. Sunday in a way will help because it's not a thinking game, but it is sink or swim time.

Just not good enough in every aspect. 2-0 up and let the bottom side back into it. Horrible on every level. Individually and collectively nowhere near good enough. We heaped pressure on ourselves, and those who question our title credentials and mentality have plenty of ammunition (rightly so).

And there is no point putting that on Arteta, or the forwards, it was collectively shit from front to back. Especially in the midfield who have no excuse because they had a week off.

That has been in the post for many many months, we've pissed about far too often, put the slippers on and rolled the ball about, its not even that we haven't been caught out before. The football tonight was absolutely dire, we are playing the worst team in the division, and do that.

This really annoys me, why wind them up

I know we like to mention the attackers but my word the service tonight to them has been shocking.

It would have been useful to have a right winger to bring on for the right winger.

Another goal conceded after we score

got the slippers on

has someone removed all the coco pops from Wolverhampton? Why are they so angry? 😂

it would be really good if we could, just for once stick another one in the onion bag.

As I say, play him centrally.

Its obviously an interesting experiment to put Saka infield, but Im not totally sure there is a need for it or that its all that wise to play both RW options in the same team. But lets see.

Tremendous news about Bukayo, hopefully his agent is gutted. Great news and another one happy to commit, wasn't long ago we were selling to City. Well done Bertha.

Saka playing inside is interesting but won’t do anything for the Nwaneri debate.

Good fun, nice for the players.

Ben White would be infuriating if you were in a rush

Please show Gyokeres

Ah Glenn Whelan.... Keep going lads.

Fantastic from Madueke

Almost as good as Fodens pass to him

Yes Ebs!

too much!

Come on Ebs

I always find it a bit weird that players are given more stick for not been able to head the ball at goal than they are for not being able to kick the ball with their weak foot.

Ah the old 57 goal drought milestone Fletch

For me tomorrow I’d go with (hardly controversially) Kepa White Mosquera Calafiori MLS Norgaard Odegaard Eze Saka Jesus Martinelli I’d try to leave Zubi and Timber out of it completely if possible

The fact that we swing from week to week about some of our players being amazing or not good enough probably tells you something.

Eze will take a lot of stick this evening and he wasn't great, but I dont know what the plan is for him. We've had the same with a good number of players now who we simply dont make the best use of, if we are never going to change the profile, just sign someone who can broadly do the same thing

Very disappointing this, wrong team, the biggest players not at it. Our inability to step things up is a massive concern, we look too frantic, make silly fouls and passes. We can blame the new players all we like...there are some favourites here not doing it.

Arsenal trying to catch the kitchen sink here

We do give away some really thick fouls

Lovely header

This game reminds me of the time we played Walcott up front and continued to bang crosses in like Giroud was there

We look like the team we are, half the team know "the plan" and how to do it, the other half look like are having to think about it a little too much. We have a number of "the plan" players on the bench. Fingers crossed for the plan.

It really would be good if they stopped showing Raya the Fabianski videos

Looks like its Leo or a set piece tonight then

Let it all work out.

Boo about Kai. Big boo, bigger than a boo I would give Paul Scholes
