Sorry, had something else I had to do.

Sokratis and Holding have both been impressive this season. Which might sound odd given the lack of clean sheets, but a lot of the goals we’ve conceded have been due to our fullbacks being out of position or midfielder not tracking their runners.

At the end of the day, people need to remember that this is still Wenger’s squad by and large. These are still his players. This is still a work in progress. And the Palace game is a classic example of a game we would have lost had we performed anywhere close to that last season.

Fair enough, you watch them more than me but Bellerin has so much higher a ceiling than those two. I probably should have been clearer too and said best player. Got to say neither Sokratis nor Holding would get in any other top six side imo.

You were unlucky today though. Palace are made to test your vulnerabilities. Thought youd create more than you did though and I think Emery shouldhave put another in midfield rather than start Auba and Lacazette.

Should be a good game next week.

One draw all season

Hmmm, I think you could possibly make a case of either of them being better players than Lovren, Smalling and Jones IMO. But I agree neither of them are top, top quality centre-halves (though I do have hopes for Holding to continue his improvement for many seasons to come. He's only just turned 23).

As for the Palace game, personally, I thought Palace should have won that game comfortably. That was our worst performance of the season. We were very lucky to have got a point from that. That being said, we have played 3 games in 6 days, and I think fatigue played its part as the game wore on. There's been very little rotation to our core performers.

I've also just seen that we've had the most individual errors leading to goals this season, alongside Fulham. And that we've faced 140 shots from opposition players, in comparison to Liverpool's 80.

We need to buck up our ideas defensively and fast because we can't continue conceding chances like this.

Unfortunately I think Liverpool will beat us next week, but I'm hoping we can get positive results from the Tottenham and Man United games coming in the next month or so.

Key words...."eventually" and "season"....guess you miseed that though eh fella

It's clear you do not know what you're talking about.

I really dont think Leno is THAT bad.

Leno is a very good player in fact.

This game will show our credentals. We need to get back t winning ways gainst a top 6 side. If we win on sat it will be warning to the rest and let city know we are in for the long run. Apart from the first game against West ham we havent really clicked into clear but are stil unbeaten impressive. The key will be the midfield to take control.
