Arsenal were below us!

Said it so many times good teams know how to defend and shuffling all of the defense around for one injury is completely mental. The old lad has screwed us today, hope he redeems himself second half.

Arsenal aren't even a good side and there was definitely an opportunity today, but as usual we gift it to them.

If anything it highlights that MB's belief that the system is king is wrong.

If the players dont fit the roles it goes to s**t.

Sorry MB but this has been so overthought

Surely no one can be surprised at Meslier, every game he gives the opposition at least one golden chance with his appalling passing. Any pass that involves the ball leaving the grass generally proves too much for him.

still shite no consistency at all. we spend 15 to 19m on a crock defender who has played 50 minutes, we have a slim championship squad and people get injured we try and fill the position from within the same 11, its ridiculous, we just fortunate that the bottom 3 are like 15 points below us.

No surprise we're getting hammered, considering the side we've put out. A key injury or two and we have no sufficient cover whatsoever, square pegs will not suffice.

Very harsh that on Meslier. We've not been in this game at all so not sure what you mean by it was there for the taking.

He's had an absolute stinker with the second goal but won us a lot of points this season so he will still get my support. All keepers make mistakes at times

Exactly, no better evidence than the Crawley shambles. If we'd kept playing until now we still wouldn't have scored 🤣

But it was all so avoidable. Bring in Shack for KP, or even Kenneh or whoever. Why completely mess up the defence and move players out of position when they've proved they're not good enough at that role?
