    Fair play to West Ham they came out to play, gave it everything and didn’t make it an easy game for us. I don’t think I want to see that midfield trio again, no urgency, physicality or creativity. I’m not worried about this season I still think we’ll be competing for the league but we definitely need some reinforcements. Eddie is just alright as a striker and now Jesus is out till December Saka, Martinelli and Odegaard gotta start firing. On to the next game.

    Thought we were shite in the first half and West Ham were significantly worse than shite. Expected us to come out and turn the screw a bit in the second half and we produced one of the worst halves of football I think I’ve ever seen from an Arsenal team. Genuinely awful.

    I’m not fussed about being out but that performance is a unacceptable, and getting battered by West Ham should see everyone involved sent to Siberia for 5 years

    The match thread was more entertaining than the game

    Arsenal Fans: It’s our 2nd team and we don’t even care about the cup

    Arteta: Send all the key players on

    Seems weird and kinda risky to bring on Saka/Martinelli/Odegaard, especially when you’re 3 down, but I guess minutes??
