The formation we use to buildup is so awkward. 2 CBs then in front of them the 2 FBs in a line with the pivot. Best teams ITW on the ball like Barca and PSG play out with the back four in a straight line and the midfield in front. City pressed with their front 4 in a line and outnumbered our CBs.

@OSB9_ Respectfully disagree. Our build-ups been good imo, teams just sit off. You mention Wolves, we were shit that game but forever in their half cos we didn’t need to build-up as they were so deep

You can call Arsenal shit today, that’s fair But to say we parked the bus? Man watch the game ffs. We were good the first 20, and pressed high. We largely had a good 1st half But 2nd half our legs went as we chased Man City. Then once we got the ball we couldn’t play through them cos we were shattered defending and then had a wall of four we couldn’t play through. But you see how long Kepa held the ball? It’s cos we TRIED to play They were excellent. We didn’t play because we couldn’t play. That’s our doing but it’s City’s too, and congrats to them

@JamesB_afc Our buildup has been an issue all season, it wasn’t because city’s press was so good. Look at wolves at home for example, 2 own goals got us out of jail we should’ve lost.

@OSB9_ Why weren’t they showing for the ball? Yeah agreed for 40 minutes they didn’t do a lot but what happened after that?

@WelBeast The players need to make the ball stick first

My heart is broken but I’m not turning on these players and the manager. We need to stick together until the last game of the season. #COYG.

@SirLeoBDasilva @Arsenal Forget UCL bro. You think we can win it playing like this against PSG and Bayern

There is no paragon of perfection @Arsenal . We have the league and Champions league to win. I have seen it in my dream.

@WelBeast Look at the crimes Arteta is committing on the pitch. He can’t be a good person

What hurts most is that we lost when a win mattered the most. Sometimes I fail to understand why bad things happened to good people.

I don’t care if Pep did it I can’t lie. You’re in a final mate. Play your best players. Simple as that. #ARSMCI #MCIARS #Arteta #Kepa

@WelBeast @ManCity The only guy who sinned was Arteta with his haramball

See you at the ETIHAD After the international break. You will pay for your sins @ManCity

The psychological damage this loss is gonna cause Omds🤦‍♂️. Arteta if you don’t win league bruv. Toothless attack, didn’t lay a glove on them all game, even our corners were shit. Scrap this haramball next season. #ARSMCI #MCIARS #Zubimendi #Arteta

@EduardoHagn Arteta better not start Kepa in the FA Cup final if we get there

If there was a final to be crap at it was this one. It cannot happen again. Premier League and the FA Cup are the bare minimum.

@EduardoHagn Got to be the worst attack to ever win the prem. I just hope we get over the line because we’re limping

This team needs to solidify in the next couple of months with the players that can really make a difference. Havertz needs to be at CF. Eze needs to be there too. Calafiori. There are players that provide nothing for the team. They cannot play in these stages.

£1billion spent and can’t buy a goal from open play. Shocking from Arteta, always relying on defence. Can’t even string 5 passes in the final 3rd. Forget UCL, if we play like this against PSG and Bayern, we’ll get destroyed. #LeagueCupFinal #Arteta #Arsenal #ARSMCI

We’re lucky to be 9 pts clear of city. I’m not even sure we’re better than them. Only reason we’re top was because of an October purple patch. Arteta needs to tear this style of play up after this season. It’s an eyesore. #Arsenal #Arteta #EFLCupFinal #LeagueCupFinal

@chiddyafc We can forget UCL man. Imagine us against the likes of PSG and Bayern playing like this.

Whatever happens for the rest of the season the technical ability and game model needs to change. Cup final on this big ass Wembley pitch and you can't string 5 passes together are you fr fr???

@WelBeast I have to sit on this result for 2 weeks. I hope Arteta doesn’t play him if we reach the FA Cup final

Kepa Arrizabalaga I know it wasn’t your intention but you have finished me.

@chiddyafc Today was a reality check. Only reason we’re ahead in the league cos our defence had some crazy vein of form in October.

@Groot4100 We need to win more than them. Haven’t won anything for 6 years. Just cos they did it don’t mean it’s right

@OSB9_ Same way how City started J Trafford

How can you start your backup keeper in a cup final? #LeagueCupFinal #EFLCupFinal #O’Reilly #Kepa

@soft_dey_4_U @HandofArsenal @Nipay3forking Because there’s no options. Rice and Zubi not showing for the ball

@OSB9_ @HandofArsenal @Nipay3forking Gabriel give away the ball too easily

William Saliba has been outrageously good that first half. Every fire is being put out, every 50/50 is being won. Haaland is silent and frustrated in the first 45. Also, how is that rat Bernado not on a yellow? 45 to go, lock in Arsenal 🙏🏽

@ndixna0 @HandofArsenal @Nipay3forking He’s made some vital blocks cleaning up after Hincapie

@OSB9_ @HandofArsenal @Nipay3forking No just saliba
