Look, we had rode our luck and clocked 11 wins on a trot.
But Roy is savvy enough to know that our defence is vulnerable to tricky and pacy forward. He set up the team to do exactly that and Emery bought the dummy.
Back to the drawing board.
Do you know we have a thin sqaud with the Starting-11 selects itself and no quality midfield back-up?
6 - Leno - nothing to do. But like his distribution.
6 - Bellerin - improves but went off injured.
5 - Mustafi - he never learned and just dived in, missing the ball virtually all the time.
6 - Holding - did his job but nothing great.
5 - Xhaka - he was bought for his passing precision, but passed poorly today. Like Mustafi, never learnt not to lurch in and missed the ball.
6 - Ozil - just not getting into the game with a direct and physical Palace that closed him down nstantly. Same old same old
6 - Guendouzi - nice touch but no creative playmaking ability .. just aroad runner.
8 - Torreira - MOTM that battle in midifield and kept us in the game.
6 - Iwobi - wtf he was doing on the pitch?
5 - Lacazette - no link up play, poor passing ability and just plain waste of space.
7 - Aubameyang - deadly predator and willing to runa dn closed down players. SHould field Mkhi to link up with him. What a c*ckup by Emery in not fielding Mkhi instead of Iwobi.
Substitutes:
5- Welbeck - no impact and no wonder he is still waiting for his contract extension.
6 - Lichsteiner - no nonsense and willing to take a card for the team.
4 - Ramsey - too many touches and no poor passing ability. Best he f**k off.
5 - Emery - Roy Hodgson outwitted with 2 road runners in Townsend and Zaha to ambush Willie E. Coyote. One beginning to doubt the tactical acumen of Emery and wonder why he flopped at PSG. (Little bit previous. Editor)
