Look how deep we are! Thats planned. I am not the only noticed this. Keown just made exactly the same point.

Yes because Burnley have pushed us back but Arteta philosophy is not to counterattack it’s to dominate possession which was also brought up at the beginning of the game. Last 10 mins we were deep but before that we’ve been building play and using width.

M8. Brunley don't have the players to push us back. That was my point! They are literally a kick and rush team. That means play a high ball onto our CBs and then get you midfield to collect the drop downs to get away a shot!

I love how mad the media go whenever this type of thing happens to us. When it's happened to city it barely registers. Don't buy into the brainwashing hype. It's all over the place. Xhaka, the favourite one to hate
----------------------------------------------------------------------
When was the last time that happened to City?

You do always run the risk of mistakes from playing out the back, better teams than us do the same. The difference is we don’t score enough to counter them

All high ball by Brunley.

Exactly proving my point. You don't even know 😂

We all know we have to score in the first 25 mins of this 2nd half as we are awful at chasing games in the league in the final 20 minutes.

Having said that, Arteta can't account for the mental laziness some of our players have at just switching off. That error was because Xhaka played a casual pass from inside our six-yard box. Yes Leno shouldn't have given it to him, but even so, as a professional footballer you have to know when you need to absolutely make sure with your pass or lump it up the pitch.

I'm fed up with the unforced errors this season, we have players like Luiz and Xhaka who are 80% good footballer but 20% clown, and that has cost us so many points. They aren't good enough for our first team. The mistakes are too costly. They are too old for it to be down to inexperience. This is who they are. And that's why they need to go.

Know your players. Either drop em or protect them with tactics.

It’s Aura and kt I feel sorry for - they should go to a CL team.

We do have decent options but the team is ok. Just angry at a very stupid goal to concede. Whilst Xhaka was in his usual moment of madness, Leno should decide when to play from the back and when to do long balls, and he was partly to blame for that howler.

Burnley's half time talk "Boot it even further up the park"

Xhaka needs to fack off man. Mistake leading to a goal today, mistake leading to a goal Vs Leicester, mistake that should've led to a goal against Benfica.

Good effort Odegaard.

Not bad

Yeah good shot for once.

We need much more of it. I think we need pepe on now.

Take odegaard off and we have no creativity. He can do something. I'd take off Willian or saka

Xhaka losing the ball again there
