He's not a defender, he can't do everything, and he's already holding much of the team today.
is that possible

Took much ball watching for the goals. Not at the races defensively so far.

Astonishing there was booing. Seems like a few of the players are more interested in the New Year festivities post match as are plenty of the audience.

Sat in WSU Block I last season - I can imagine if it’s who I think it is!
Well . . . We could score 3 or 4.
stranger things have happened
last 4-4 I remember was Leyton Orient ? @ the proper ground.

Spot on analysis.
Arsenal aren’t where they are without being a very good ( and expensive) team. Too many first team absences For us to even make a game of it.

Trossard needs to be wider to have any impact but we have no pace to fill the void from midfield (with our two stellar midfielders out) so no great surprise. Good to see Gilmour getting involved but he’s not got the same intent
Alan smith is such a biased pundit. Martinelli showing class how he found saka he said. If he did mean to play it off two players then he is an absolute genius!
The second goal the studio analysis said Od showing his class. He shanked that like I shank my wedges at the moment. Very very lucky.
That said they have been miles better than us.

I think the opposition today is of a slightly higher calibre. But yes I get your point

Got to change something at half time but in all honesty it's tricky knowing what we can do,Lallana has been invisible so maybe bring on Ferguson for Adam and drop Trossard in as the 10, he just does not like being isolated like he is,nothing to lose now and Ferguson will at least give them something different to think about, it's been far to easy for them so far,and if Colwill stops the game for a cup of tea on the half way line one more time I fear for my TV screen
come on lads get stuck in now.

You’re not giving Arsenal enough credit there, they’ve made us look toothless. They’re set up superbly, very difficult to break down but also then very dangerous in transition. They’re in control of everything they do, incredibly well coached and organised.
They do look like champions-elect.

isn’t quite working with Trossard through the middle and his body language isn’t exactly reassuring that he’s fully engaged.
Hopefully some early second half changes - would like to see Ferguson for 45 against the already carded Gabriel, need someone to hold it up centrally as devoid of ideas down the wings at the minute

Agree with several comments - Arsenal are very, very good.
Warren mentioned that we need an extra midfielder on to compete, but we don't have the one we need on the bench.

My half time report.
Fortuitous start for arsenal, Lampteys first run gives away possession and lo the attack into vacated RB position leads a little fortuitously to goal.
Brighton grow into the game but arsenal look dangerous, after about 30 mins you feel they now deserve their lead. Shortly after as a festive treat we concede one of those goals of mysterious incompetence that used to be a regular feature.
Nothing on the bench to change really. We're a little unfortunate but at the same time I'd estimate xG at 1.3 Vs 0.3 in arsenal's favour. Though I am drunk.
Expecting a highly professional (irritating) half from the arse now. A bit of huffing and puffing from us but they're a highly competent side I don't expect to be drawn out of position when they're leading.
