Ben White 1-0 down

Nothing else on the bench tbh. I'd bring on Nwaneri for Martinelli as he's pants, but not many other options

That would have been a lovely goal. Poor finish in the end

Nwaneri should have come on 20 mins ago.

 

[nemtizz]

0-1 looking like a good result right now.

 

[AStaley]

Should be 0-2.

 

[Nate75]

Could be 0-3 here

 

[nemtizz]

Should be 0-4

Commentators talking like we've been battered. They've had 2 good chances, so have we and other than the first 20 I think we've been slightly the better team.

Edit
That was a 3rd good chance for them.

Yeah it's close but unless Saka is on the ball I think Arsenal look a bit clueless up front. Donnarumma has made two brilliant saves.
PSG look more likely now to get a second unless the Gooners can win a corner or two.

We're so limited without a striker and Partey unfortunately, Odegaard is just exacerbating it.

Odegaard is top class with players around him. With Saka hugging the touchline and only Merino to bounce stuff off there's nothing for him

He was last season. This season he's nowhere near good enough.

45 mins too late that sub.

 

[Nate75]

Yeh I don't see Arsenal winning this.

PSG seem to have their number, as could be said for other sides tbh.

 

[Purdy]

Hope tomorrows game is better, waste of an evening this

 

[manic111]

Martinelli is so much worse than he was a couple of years ago. Should have stopped playing and taken the foul though

 

[manic111]

He was last season. This season he's nowhere near good enough.

You've not got the movement around him this season. He's never going to be someone able to take the game on on his own, he needs to be in a functioning team, and you're a mess going forward this year

 

[Trusty]

PSG just look like they've got 2 on 1 everywhere

 

[C Kent]

Martinelli really is quite gash, use to be pretty decent a few years ago. Arteta has coached that spark out of him hasnt he

 

[Nate75]

Let's celebrate a corner lol

 

[Rotty]

If the set pieces and Saka don't work then Arsenal don't amount to much
