Yay! Blazed over from Arsenal.

Mo for Livramento.

Better falling over from Long that time. Still excellent from Romeu,

Good stuff from Romeu. Shame Long fell over, having run out of ideas with noone else to apss to around him.

Forster again with a solid save.

Arsenal poppet falls over from a Romeu header. They go over so easily.

Good game form Stu. With cramp kicking in, good time for the sub. Come on Redders!

Whew! Big Man makes himself...well, big to keep that one out.

t's all Arsenal. We could do with putting a couple of passes together. And another excellent save by Forster, as above. They are trying to constantly get it central for those efforts.

Sakha made one massive scream wehn he got tackled. Surprisingly, both his legs were still attached wehn he bounced back up. I thought they'd fallen off with a scream like that.

Odegard had a decent shot to take there. After Smith Rowe just fell over on the other side.

Soares off, so no goal from that ex-player.

Tight lipped Arteta off down the tunnel. Forster made a good save earlier, and Arsenal didn't take advantage of any of their runs at our back line. We didn;t offer much, but didn;t look as though as though we were going to be cut to ribbons due to the formation change. I think that was Peraud hitting it back in for the Broja assist to Bednarek. Another reason for him being in the team. 🙂 Second half will be interesting. We may just keep it the same, with the odd hopeful break. Broja is our best option for that anyway, so I hope he stays on.

nice running down their keeper there. Nice to see us with a bit of a boost.

Yuss!

Lots of creative Arsenal players, only to happy to run at our defence.

took a while to get that cleared.

I'd rather not be reminded of the dark days, when spreadsheet prints lined the streets after the xG/Pony wars. 😒

Yeah, but because it was Claude's team, all of those *must* have been random efforts from within our own box, which apparently where the team lived. Super Ralph has embraced xG, so although there are fewer shots, they are of a higher quality. 🙂

I look forward to our intercontinental pre-season tournaments!
