Rushworth 4 made two bad mistakes looked terrified but to his credit improved

Mve 5 one bad mistake, did ok but not a good defender at this level

JDS 6 looked calm and composed and decent going forward

Almenda 7 body on the line often

Thomas 7 had a very good 2nd half

Grimes 4 froze

Onyeka 5 tried hard but technically not good enough

Yirnenkyi 4 had a tough debut

Tuna 6 improve you passing and you’ll be a player

BTA 4 tried hard but miles out of his depth

Simms 6 faded but did well first half

Subs

Awoniyi 6 will do well for us
Torp 6 technically good enough
Rudoni 5 good to see him back
Hamer legend will start soon
 
Men against boys. Not really fair to judge our players on tonight's showing as Arsenal will smash most teams in the league.
Thomas and Amenda did pretty well.
MvE, Rushworth and Yirenkyi very poor.

Easy for Arsenal, especially as we didn't seem to know how to tackle or press.

Rushworth, bta and mve not the best
Simms and Thomas did well
Bobby did well but Big T is a class above Ellis. Rudi looked OK too. Matt Grimes was not much use. Couple of mistakes from wide defenders let them in. Lessons learned.

How do you press that though? At one point Havertz was in the right back position and califiori striker. That level of rotation is elite. We are in the same league on paper but absolutely worlds apart
 
You can’t mark really against the champions away. I thought Amenda and Awoniyi looked good. Rushworth has a great confidence. We have some good power. Thomas didn’t look out of place.
 
Amenda mom
JdS , Thomas and Loum were all ok
Midfield that started was honking
Simms worked hard and got some reward for it
Awoniyi and Torp both decent off the bench
Gus and Rudi need minutes

Positives

Jds good game
Amenda looks great
Thomas will do well
Big T looked good
Tuna actually is gonna be a good player for us
Rudi is back!

Negatives

Poor Rushy second debut
Mve was pretty dire
Yirenki looked way out of it
Grimes lost all composure

Overall 3 really shit goals to conceed but id have taken 3-0 before the game

Larrys final thought:

Arsenal away doesn't relegate you. We take the learnings, we move on, we improve with experience

Tough game to make your debut in but Yirenkyi was a real disappointment. Didn’t seem to have any positional discipline and tackling was bad. Not sure if he starts vs Hull.

Very difficult but it would have helped if we didn't have 3 players marking one player who was then still able to pass the ball inside the box for someone to have time to take a touch and then shoot.
We gave them far too much respect and it played into their hands.

We would have lost no matter what we did but I still think we could have done better.

Was reading some comments from other fans and they said the same thing. They think we are not cut out for the prem if that is how we setup.
 
All 3 goals were avoidable which is the biggest disappointment for me. The 3rd goal I never want to watch back in my life as it was embarrassing.

Ridiculous comment !
You make mistakes at this level and you get punished and Odegaards goal was a complete mishit
Embarrassing , really
 
Midfield was terrible.
Centre halves were good.
Simms was good but not really threatening. Awoniyi looked good and threatening.

Say what you want, but I'm still really disappointed by that first half, it was timid. Need to be braver, even against teams of that quality.
How do you fix that midfield
