This Weekend’s Other Games 20/09

[Kev0909]

Great counter and run by Reijnders to set up Haaland to finish, Clincal

That's what I want wirtz&Isak to do.

[Steveo]

Should be 0:2 Rijnders straight at the Arsenal keeper

[miller0863]

Half an hour in to a home game with a main rival and Arsenal are still to register a single attempt at goal

[Steveo]

Well I think they’ve been brilliant…. 🤭 More of the same please

[Kev0909]

Atletico seems to be struggling so far, 5 games 6 pts, 12th place

[miller0863]

Arsenal with their second attempt on 40 minutes also nowhere near.

Negative nancy arteta at the helm again

can see city getting tired in 2nd half and arsenal bringing on attacking subs and it ending 1-1

[miller0863]

4 attempts 1 on target v 3 attempts 2 on target. Arsenal XG 0.35 City XG 0.55

Arsenal with 65% of the ball but doing absolutely nothing with it. Looking at the first half it would appear Arteta still hasn’t learned about having to beat your main rivals in a title challenge.

They will need to be much more progressive in the second half.

There was far more play acting to get the opposition in the book than there was football in the first half, from both sides.

Poor so far but City’s game plan has worked up to now

[Steveo]

Saka and Eze on now… Things will be more lively in Cities box

[Steveo]

Instant impact and Saka finds Zubimendi on the edge in space and he should make the keeper work at the very least but hits one over, Had a right go at himself too. Thats not Spanish level technique at all…. Very good player though

[Steveo]

Eze now stings keepers hands. Looks like a very different Arsenal at the start of this half

[Steveo]

Bummer - Doku with another stunning break - feeds Haaland and he should score or pass - fluffs it Norwegian freak

[Steveo]

Pep in the book - The Catalan not the Dutch traitor

[miller0863]

Never seen a Pep side have so little of the ball, 33%.

[Kev0909]

negative nancys seem to struggle against the big boys eh? at least he made changes at HT

Think if they went for it against us, they'd have got a draw at least

Still can seem em getting a goal, a draw would be ok
