Only caught last 15mins, we look ok but apparently refs done us??

Allen on for Ibe/Firmino

The worry for me is that we don't have a strong bench. Hard to see us winning this.

You been out getting your new Arsenal shirt?

Don't know what's gone wrong with Firminho, he's been gash for weeks now

We need a "soft" german in MF. haha

Ref hasn't done us at all, it wasn't his fault that we are totally inept at defending.

he needs strikers with movement in front of him to be effective

we don't have any fit

With the way West Ham are defending, pointless throwing balls into Bentekes head.
Need to be little cuter in possession around the edge of the box.
Games there to be won, west ham are ordinary to say the least.

Liverpool bench looks very weak today, no game changers on there. Lallana will get on for sure but far too many below par performances.

Can was by far our best player in that half. I'd love to sign somebody in the Matic mould to play alongside Can in midfield. I hear good things about that Krychowiak chap.

Henderson and Can have been very promising imo.

Lucas coming in has not helped us at all. 'Best defensive midfielder in the league' my arsenal.

Ref made a bad call. Should've been a free kick in a good position for us, but called it wrong, leading to Moreno prone by the corner flag while they attacked down our left.

Scored right off that bad call

Looked ok the last 15, can hit the bar and created a couple of chances...maybe I came in at the right time.

I agree completley..

so why is he on the pitch? been poor for the last few games, his last good game was behind firmino as the striker

Exactly, with no movement in front of him what's he meant to do?

What really frustrated me was that Benteke chance where he just looked useless. Should have scored. With Villa he'd have scored...

Think we need to match them and go 4:4:2 the problem is that that still only means we have Firmino a lil higher up the field. However it would mean ibe picks up the ball a lil deeper , which i actually think suits him.

This Benteke stick is getting pathetic. All you're doing is showing a complete lack of understanding of what he needs to flourish. I've said it time and again that he has to have someone alongside him. What's the point crossing it when he's by himself, surrounded by 3/4 defenders? Even if he won the ball it's going straight to the opposition. And why aren't you picking up on the terrible balls that aren't giving him any chance to create anything?

lets STOP criticizing the players, with a little bit of patience is needed and we can win this game.
