we only just like halfway of the season, still a lot of things can happened..this is not the end of the world..

Yeah, only one yeam can be the best of the last 100 years.

cannot lah. Mikel really limited.. passing short, no pace. harap his physicality.
good as bus driver to defend last minute. no gooding to transition from def to attack

I will not put the blame on Mikel. I think he played well tonight. He is not Matic so, it is unfair to judge him against the man he replaced. He distributed the ball well, especially when we are pushing for the goals and I am totally satisfied with the way he played.

As for Oscar, this is just 'that' time of the season again for him.

Fatigue. Pls la next time rotate players.

tbh, it's hard to find a back up to Matic. Name me a player that actually plays like Matic? And is willing to be a back up to Matic.

Tbh, there's no1 willing to be a back up with Matic's capability. So we gotta make do with Mikel. But tbh, he can't do a Matic.

Ya lo. but still cant win UCL.

In England maybe..in Europe..still Steaua Bucharest

Dah lama say mikel should be sold.
We need to add more physical depth very obvious since our last match against city.
Anyway masuk cave these week.

In this game he not a scapegoat but to be blame,really.he suppose to help the back four but fail to do so.and back 4 also not perform very well.but selling him would be even stupid.he good but only for defensive play and partner with matic.

MvG and Ake in our rank

If transfer..my favourite jeremy toulalan,,but he is old already hahaha

true also. maybe too used to Matic... suddenly put Mikel, feel like subpar

nevermind. seriously i think this loss might be good. enough of this unbeaten shit. its just additional pressure to compare us to old Arsenal.

Hull City beware! stepping into an angry lion's den!

Put it simple.

Matic is all action CM type of player, can shield back four, can start attack with his dribble due to his upper body strength.

Mikel is a bit more defensive. With his height and composure to play short pass. But he lack the pace, so he can't dribble with the ball. He is a tad slower too if compared to Matic.

Yup,i also think the same thing.who play like matic and willing to be a backup for matic?no one unless youngster.MVG?

he always suck when he played in pivot..

he only good in 4-3-3..where he just focus on defending and no attacking at all..

No problem. Going unbeaten is much more difficult.

There are so many teams who won europa cup 1 or UCL.

Hahaha arsenal down 1-0 already

Anyways i cannot brain why sub azpilicueta
When luis warming up i thought iva going to be replaced and azpi to right and luis left.

But sub azpi... Zzzzzz

Mikel? His passes was prone to interception. U see he pass also feel like having a heart attack
