Get Batman back!

In Hafi’s stats world we are battering Vidi tonight, so unlucky, good job we still have Morata on the pitch to save the blushes

We look useless without jorginho and hazard.

This is dire....😪😪

Who done the cross? Can he get changed now?

At last hazard.....

Wow, to need to bring on Hazard vs this team says it all

It shows just how bad we are

Can see why Sarri is reluctant to make so many changes.

Morata is hopeless, he's been getting bullied by their captain all game

We've had 15 corners and they've all been the same. Gone are days when the Big Ivan used to score important headers for us from corners

Wow, didn't think it was possible

Alvarrooo

OMG....he scored...😱😱😱

Every dog has his 5 minutes

We still have Luiz, Rudi, Cahill who are good in the air. Even i will add Morata to it. But we don't have someone to deliver a good setpiece.

This has been a shocking performance.

Very very poor

FT.....at last

Thursday is basically a hindrance, we don't play youth and none of the fringe stand out. Rather just get knocked out of the tournament

Expecting optimal or instant standout performances from fringe (in the same vein as first-choice) that have barely played matches together to form cohesion is quite frankly absurd.
Match-fitness and adaptation (to Sarri's method) is not at the level of the first-choice yet obviously.

Europa group is a three month process for fringe, over that period I fully expect some will be giving Sarri a selection headache.
Hopefully Hudson-Odoi & Ampadu get a look-in soon.
Embarrassing watching Arsenal field their standout youth player (Smith-Rowe) from last season, being trusted to play against Qarabag away (bear in my mind, this is a team that gave Atletico and Roma a hell of a time in CL last season), player that is level below Ampadu & Hudson-Odoi to my mind.

Putting the two outstanding youth products into the team against substandard Europa opposition is really not too much to ask.

That's 2 out of 6 wasted opportunities thus far, which would have been so valuable to them. Especially Hudson-Odoi who has yet to commit to new contract.

Moses & Cahill taking minutes away from Hudson-Odoi & Ampadu doesn't sit well with me at all. That's on Sarri.

I'm not interested in hearing bollocķs about playing them means conceding defeat.
Which is the usual nonsense/cowardly reasoning in not playing them.
