Everton (a) - Instant Reaction

this game for me is equivalent to the Watford game with Emory where we were just shellacked. Arteta lost me at Everton. can he turn it around? i hope and wish so, but I am not going to hold my breath. I think Kroenke has 2 options, 1. this winter, get big name striker and midfielder to support Arteta. 2. sack Edu and Arteta, and pay Ajax big money for Overmars and Ten Hag

KPI's are metrics that should be used in a PDCA system, plan do check act (Deming Circle) KPI's are the check phase used to judge performance and the interesting element is the Act, without a clear action collecting metrics is pointless (much like yesterday) will the action be a new striker, Arteta removed etc etc? This is the process!

KT was actually level with Gordon when xhaka got his yellow. But he walked back the entire play

No win since September Potter?

Can we get "lacazette is at the halfway line ordering a burger and chips" on a mug please

It is really time for a change. Arteta is just not fit to manage Arsenal. Cannot get us to create which is a fundamental in the game. Give Brighton 10m and get Potter in. Very good tactically and can teach these young players a lot.

This result could have easily been 4-1. Yeah, it's technically offside through VAR but in the spirit of the game, it could have been a whole lot worse. Xhaka staying on for 90 mins from his first game back after a lengthy injury made no sense to me. The Nketiah one doesn't really need to be gone over more. For me, Lokonga needs to come in for Partey to give him some time to recollect himself and regain confidence.

A depressingly late arrival of November this year. No tempo, slooooooow buildup even compared to a koala. The only time this team thrive is when they dont have their minds on the instructions and play more on instincts. Only 23 games left 😵‍💫

So last night , from the moment we scored we went to passive mode yet again until they equalized , then showed that we had what it took to actually face them head on , trying to keep a 1-0 for 45 mins+ is just beyond me guys.. Arteta needs to step up

It feels as if we have hit a ceiling with Arteta and unless he makes a major step up in his coaching career (with his stubborness, Im not sure about that) I don't think we can go any further with Arteta

I have been Arteta In this whole time . All last year you could tell it was the players. Now that we seem to have the players (ones he picked, obviously) that can competently play and play with energy. I have hit a point that makes me think, these players are well good enough for these games and feel Arteta keeps letting us down or can't enable any form of confidence in the players.

it's just a funny nickname bro - I try to be creative whenever a website asks for my first and last name. When it comes to my tone, I was over the moon just 5 days ago before the United game, and I don't suffer from a borderline personality disorder, so it's more difficult for me to have a mental breakdown now, after our first real slip-up of the season.

Tell me this guys what with our strikers not attacking the near post. Auba has always been a back post guy and poaching. Laca was good at attacking near post, what has made him stop. This is the r ason why our crosses is never capitalised.

My one quibble with Clive asking which managers are available -- Rangnick was available until last week. Conte was available before that. We passed over Tuchel, too, and Pochettino. Hansi Flick and Nagelsmann were probably never available, but maybe Jesse Marsch is. Sarri would have given us a style of play, which we desperately need. Managers are available until they aren't, and Arsenal have let a LOT of good managers go past over the last five years. I don't think we can say that no one's available when the club doesn't pursue the ones who are.

Chicken nuggets. Needed that, thanks Clive old boy! That Lacazette section cheered me up immensely. Top stuff gents.

I think the hardest part is just seeing the team play with such fear. The lads had it right tonight - we need to play BRAVE. So tired of seeing timid football.

Haven't listen to this yet but I know the kind of analysis that would be done. But one question Elliot , you say spurs are dreadful how about that now. They have a top coach and are above us wiht a game in hand. Man u is above us and have a top coach. We are comfortably perched at 7th with this manager. It will be impossible to finish any higher wiht this coach. Let's maje our peace and expect nothing beyond 7th or 8th. After this game I have no hesitation in saying that any other top coach will get better results out of this team 100%. By the way last match it was Elneny who made Partey bad. So who is it in this game then.

Tim Stillman, Rightbackazette 😂😂

With a bit of luck we win that - let's see where we are come January - toxicity will only make it harder for the players in this crucial period of the season. Criticism never helps, the players and the coach need to be supported now when they are in the Sky washing machine.

This reaction episode was very cathartic. As usual, Clive and Tim making some great points! Definitely questions need to be asked of Arteta and he isn't helping his cause with the last two team performances.

One more loss and I need a record skip on the opening music

Milton

Get arteta out of this club, get literally anyone else in at this point. It's absolutely dire football, dire tactics, dire man management, just garbage in every area. Get him out.

He was easily our best player.

This one is on the coach.

Clive’s reference to 👻 👻 is prescient

Odegaard feels a little too tiki taka for me. Constant recycling of the ball backwards and sideways. Made me miss ESRs incision.

Jake Walker

How long? It's 3 years and counting. Everton did the double on us last season

We’ll get there

Crushing. Absolutely crushing.

What the fuck did we just watch

The midfield. The END

Haven’t listened to it yet but while watching the game, the one phrase that I kept repeating was “WASHING MACHINE”

Deep breathes

No thanks

Ugh.. brace yourselves

This ones going to be depressing

Regular Reezy
