'ARSENAL ARE OVERTHINKING IT!' 🗣️ Is loss to Aston Villa the BREAKING POINT of season? 😬 | ESPN FC 

Arsenal told Liverpool you will never walk alone .

Arsenal and Liverpool just laid the red carpet for Man City to win the EPL title for the 4th time in a row. 🙄

You'll never bottle alone

Arsenal fans: “We’re unbeaten in 2024” Unai Emery “Hold my beer”

This weeks results just goes to prove that no manager is actually close to Pep. You will never bottle alone!

all the noise was about us (Liverpool) losing to Palace. and then they went ahead to join us 😂 how wonderful

I will tell you that Emery had Villa play the first half to plan. It was to hold Arsenal back, test the waters, settle into the game and take any opportunities if they come up. The second half Emery adjusted his tactics slightly, tightened up the team, brought on fresh legs wih Bailey and inspired the team to increase their intensity and energy... the rest is history...

Imagine losing at home in a title race only to face a fuming stormy Bayern in 3 days time at the Allianz Arena who just lost their Bundesliga throne 💀

Arsenal fans and Liverpool fans were laughing at Tottenham yesterday and now look.💀

It’s finished. City don’t lose points in run-in. Congratulations to City. The greatest team in the EPL era.

EVERYONE can see that Arteta has meddled with our winning formula at the most important stage of the season! The only logical explanation is that hes working for city!

Arsenal and Liverpool knows how to bottle 😂

This just proves that Pep is way better than Arteta and Klopp.

City will manage to win one game at time not thinking about 6 games,,,pep and city are never exited before time

It now seems like the surest way to get a medal in England is to play for city . I am a Chelsea fan but I think pep is the greatest coach ever in EPL

Emery is no joke. End of.

Here's how Villa beat Arsenal... Villa sat back in the 1st half and took everything Arsenal had which outside of a few Martinez's saves wasn't much. Then in the 2nd half Unai Emery twisted the screws tighter and completely shut Arsenal out. It was a brilliant display of managerial prowess from Unai Emery to give Arteta a coaching spanking... nothing more and nothing less... Now show some respect to Aston Villa cos they have beaten every team above them !! UP THE MIGHTY VILLA🦁👊💪👍

People are still sleeping on certain PL teams like Villa, Fulham, and Luton.

"You can't turn round and tell me that Arteta is gonna turn round and that Klopp is gonna turn round..." Stevie loves to turn around 😅

City 4 in a row pending. For some reason after the Liverpool game, and the way we started the game and not scored. You just felt something terrible was going to happen

Didn't think City had a broader squad then Liverpool or Arsenal as Pep prefers smaller squads.

This is a very good point. One of the reasons why Pep went for Juan Manuel Lillo was because he wanted to have an assistant coach that was not going to be afraid to advise him in crucial games..

Emery: “Good Ebening, ladies and gentlemen. I will be your host for this week’s masterclass…” 😉

Arteta is really to blame for real. Moving Havertz, inserting Zinny. And also not having Partey or Jorgi next to Rice was a travesty.

The top three have been too arrogant.any team in the prem can cause an upset.this race is not over till the last kick of the season.

I’m an Arsenal fan for life, but this team just knows how to disappoint the fan, playing like this we ain’t going no where… you think you can play Bayern Munich like this the will punish you, worse how their league has been won already there are hungry for a trophy. I wish our side is that hungry

“Goal scorers and Goal getters”…well said Shaka 🙁👏🏿

He should be ruthless with zinchenko the same way he was with kiwior during the bayern game

Arsenal should try to score goal in the first half. If the boys can't find the net, he should play more conservative in the second half and substitute more defensive players to the pitch. Getting 1 point is much better than losing 3 points.

That is madness for Arteta. Why not partey?

Spurs have been accused of being so Spursy,Arsenal sure is so Arsey…de ja vu😂😂😂

When Arsenal heard Liverpool lost, they said: nice we can lose too.

UNAI EMERY: “Gud Ebening”. 😏😏

Taking out trossard and leaving gabriel jesus in is an abysmal decision.

It’s actually a pressure , that’s why he changed his winning formation!

Say it, it is done! No fool around anymore!

To be fair, the runs from deeper by Havertz broke the high line multiple times, Diego Carlos just had his best match in a Villa shirt and chased him down every time

Arsenal's loss yesterday wasn't at all a surprise. Its in their nature to fall off with just a few games to go. It happened last season and its happening again this season. This is Arsenal's character. As long as Arteta is their manager, they wont win the league title. Probably they can finish in 3rd or 4th position every season. Arteta is not rated highly...maybe around the 8th in world rankings. Still the highest rated are Pep, Klopp and Ancelotti. In fact, if you compare Arteta with Emery...the latter would still be a better tactical manager since he had won 2 or 3 europe league titles. Arteta has won nothing or maybe just the FA Cup with Arsenal only. Emery is humble while Arteta is boastful. Personally, I even predicted Arsenal to lose one match and draw two in the remaining games. That means a drop of 7 points. So can Arsenal still win the title? No chance...zero percent. City will win every game left. City is too experience to throw it away.

What Arteta is going through is no different to what Pep went through as well. When he would over think things and make adjustments that dont make sense to city fans and the public. And as a result city lost very important Champions league games because of that. And Pep took the L's and learnt from them. The same thing is going to happen to Arteta, just give him time

I quickly changed my bet to Aston Villa win when I saw the sloppy way Arsenal started. It's very uncharacteristic of Arsenal to start on a slow pace and lower momentum. Arsenal players' hunger diminished upon seeing Liverpool's loss to Palace. Arsenal being Arsenal 😃

Liverpool loses 1-0... Arsenal ' anything you can do I can do better' 😂🤣😂🤣

Shocking - of course it was all a failing of Arsenal. Show some respect to what Aston villa have and are achieving this season. Plus, villa are not Leicester !

Stevie 200% right

Arteta showing he can out think Pep

they forget that Emery is a genius and Arteta was bamboozled

Arteta is NOT a top level manager. Let’s stop beating around the bush.

When you have hindsight,you always sound like a genius

like why would u changing a winning team???

Stevie & Keller are wrong, Pep changes the team and formation every game to suit the opponent and he's been the most successful.

Totally agree

You finally start to get Havertz playing well and scoring goals as s forward, then Arteta the genius sticks him back in midfield???!! 😂😂 For jesus??

This is some truly atrocious punditry lol. Zero clue about tactics

Klopp fumbles and Stevie is quiet but when arteta fumbles Stevie jumps on the overthinking bandwagon..sometimes i feel like a genius listening to this old man

Arsenal lost because of Arteta's madness!!! We don't change the winning team!!!

The single biggest reason why Liverpool lost along with Arsenal, especially arsenal is that Arsenal are in this time not used to dealing with a European campaign along with a domestic campaign. Arsenal looked extremely heavy legged in that second half due to there exploits in the second half. Arsenal still have room to grow when it comes to dealing with multiple competitions in the same season

If at least 4 more players put in the work rate and commitment that odergard put in arsenal would have been miles better off

Arsenal's 2nd leg vs Bayern will be a tricky tie. If Arsenal win that match, they will regain confidence again. I think City also will drop points somewhere along the way.

115 charges wins the league yet again. SMH

Jesus and havertz both in the same team will cause issue. Either Havertz or Jesus

Devastated on this result against Villa- but we hope on is not yet over

The biggest chance of City dropping points is in the last 2 games; v Spurs and West Ham, but the title could be theirs by then anyway.

Arsenal fans: nobody can beat us!🥵🔥🏆😎 UNAI EMERY: “GUD EBENING”😏😏😏

Why Arteta took Ode off beats me. Why didn't Tomi come on for Sunny when Bailey came on like he did against City? Why why Why????! Can't get it

When I saw the lineup I knew there was a mistake. Should have just played Jorginho, Rice and Odergaard in the middle and Havertz as a false 9 like he's always done. The other thing, Arteta is not a second half coach, when we went to half time without scoring I was worried. It's over for Arsenal, we are done.

Liverpool dropped the baton the moment Arnold said- "this means much more" after the Energy drink cup which City won 4-in-a row already.

Why did he change it..doesn't make any sense

Arsenal’s second half performance is down to the fact that they are competing in UCL. They are not used to this. Bayern took a ton of energy to play against. Arsenal looked heavy legged in the second half. Liverpool had tons of opportunities and had the energy, City destroyed their opponent. They are used to this multiple games and heavy workload, Arsenal isn’t.

All the ills of today's performance can be laid at the feet of Arteta's selections and substitutions. They were unfortunately emotional and arrogant. He believed that his coaching could override the natural dispositions of players. It was a pre-Dubai team selection with pre-Dubai results (plenty opportunities but an inability to score). As a fanbase we've been very superstitious about what happened in Dubai and how it transformed us. And of course we dont know all the secret sauce tactical, cultural, and psychological interventions used- but it is clear that one major visible transformative pivot was positional- Havertz as the centre forward, the 4 part midfield with Jorghino as base, etc. It is telling that the first game that we reverted to the pre-Dubai shape we got a pre-Dubai performance and result. Cause and effect. Let's learn that lesson quickly! Our flaws against Villa were entirely positional. And those affected individual performance. Im stating the obvious: Havertz should have started as centre forwatd not midfield. Jesus should have come on as a second-half sub- and then to replace Saka. Martinelli needed to start because this match was supposed to be a match for sprinters. Trossard should come on in his best role as high-impact substitute. Jorghino needed to start in the midfield and he and Rice could have alternated roles- on top or sitting deep- during the game according to the workload and to confuse Villa. Tomiyasu should have started over Zinchenko for defensive solidity. We all know what has worked in 2024! By messing with the line-up Arteta messed with the team's flow, and we are at a part of the season when flow is supreme, when muscle memory can serve you well to get over the exhaustion and injury line when you're knackered. Players should get rest by playing only 45- 65 minutes- not by sitting on the bench during their most productive period. A post-Dubai team selection puts away those chances we were presented.. Arteta's unnecessary tinkering derailed the campaign last year pre-City, and he needs to learn the lesson quickly that Frankenstein monsters dont work for title charges!. Let the team be the beautiful Monster that it originally was post-Dubai. Now is not the time to tinker and second guess. Play People in their natural positions!!! There's nothing as tiring as having to act against type- and the team today simply suffered from being miscast... Look, I love Arteta, but today he just got it horribly wrong. The other issue is that it is time we formally designate Unai and Villa at home as bogeys. The reason why this is important is that Arteta and this Arsenal have overcome every single bogey systematically. Lets officially put Unai and Villla on the bogey-destruction whiteboard and execute. Next to Bayern... We can still win everything by beating every team in front of us (and praying that City slip up at least once!)- the Super post-Dubai Team can do that with a cleverly used subs bench. Lets learn that lesson. Let's go, you Gunners!!!

The City Arsenal draw 2 week ago with Liverpool then favorites for the title...has completely been turned on it's head.

This 5:47 there's a reason city post 90+ pts most seasons .. its the squad I've always said it especially since salah as aged hes just burned out same happened 2 seasons ago liverpool just looked tired in the end where as pep always has the luxury of resting players

It's paining theses pundits to talk about villa victory ✌️

You’ll never walk alone? More like, You’ll Never BOTTLE Alone.

I still wonder how EPL has become a one team league just like Bundesliga and French league

Where is barley he used to say horrendous to utd wht will he say today

I am a City fab and was okay with Arsenal or Liverpool winning rest of their games and win the PL. That would have been well deserved and City has done it earlier to take the title. But they both fluffed their lines. This title would mean so much for their fanbase but now its not in their hands any more and if City does what they do well... Try harder next time.

Liverpool would never walk alone Arsenal : Yes bro Aston Villa : Good ebening

Arsenal just need to focus on the next game and react to the defeat. It's one game- that's football. There are fine margins and you lose concentration it costs you games. Regroup- refocus and stay humble- COYG

It arsenal wins, no one’s going to talk about “changing winning team”. They will say it as a “rotation”. This is exactly what pep does. Always change starting line up every match because of the tight schedule.

Artets trying to be to clever......Rice Partey , odegaatd for these games

Arteta decided to lose the match with his awful line up , deoping jorgihno on the bench and playing haverzt on the midfild , i guess the title is in 115 charges hands now too bad

Arteta wanted to accommodate Jesus in the team, and down the middle, period. He could put him in Trossard place instead.

Jan "I'm 100% sure that this is not over with", don't talk nonsense man, no one can be 100% sure.

This was arsenal vs brighton from last season all over again..... its just a north london thing

Tactical arterta poor

They have zero knowledge of the game. 😢

21 toucjes in the box....no striker Havertz is not it

its called a plot twist

Havertz should not have started

I think it's between Man city and Liverpool now.... Arsenal just gave Liverpool hope.

Why did he change it it’s true

Not surprised 😂

Arteta lost the plot today. I don't ever want to see Jesus upfront again. Deeply bad when he is upfront

These ESPN pundits don't have the stomach to call out Liverpool like they do every other team. Especially Steve and Craig. 😂

This season is gonna be different because C115TY is going to get points deduction. I think all the investigation is all wrapped up but they're waiting for end of season for the hammer since this title race with 3 contenders is quite rare and it's good for the viewers, shareholders and investors. I think there will be point deductions to decide this season's title and maybe another point deductions from the start of next season and/or relegation to EFL.

He is a an arrogant manager….this is the issue. His substitution is ridiculous.

Bruh, at this point, watching how this unfolds everytime. I wouldn't be surprised if there is match fixing involved cuz aint no way boy😂

Kamar is at work Arsenal should go and Apologyized to unai emery and mantiz for bad treatment from Arsenal ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Oodigard is the soul of the team when you sub him you took the soul away😢

Naaa that's nonsense saying you can't change for anyone at home. You can actually do that at home because you can play a weaker side to rest players you need to rest knowing you have the crowd behind you.

Xhaka Martinez and Good MF ebening put the voodoo hex on them.
