Always a horrible game to lose. Went in with some optimism but the harsh reality is Arsenal are a team on top of their game in every sense. Completely aligned, with a manager who’s been there 6 years and nearly a full squad to choose from. They are much better than us so it’s not exactly a surprised that they battered us.
We are a club at our lowest point in years, with close to our best starting 11 out injured or suspended, with a manager who arrived on Monday. Today was never going to be the gauge of whether we can get out of this mess. And if we were going to get anything out of it then everything needed to go for us.
If Kolo Muani’s perfectly legitimate goal doesn’t get ruled out. If Palhinha makes an effort to get in front of Gyokeres to stop the shot. If Richarlison’s shot goes over the line - then maybe we would have got something. But we won’t be going down because we couldn’t beat Arsenal.
Real work starts now but I can not wait for the season to be over.

Honestly the referees & VAR have had an absolute shocker of a start to the season. If that goal is disallowed for a foul you will never ever see a corner be taken without referee blowing for something ever again🫣🤷🏻♂️
