Nunez had zero shots on target today, and wait for it ……………. zero shots at goal at all today. 
 

Yes, we need Jota back. 

 

I'm sure he could have got a shot on target when he decided to play Mo in, but you probably still wouldn't be happy.

 I was very happy with the assist, the whole move was just perfection. 
 

But I want my striker to get shots at goal during the game.

 

I wanted Nunez taken off at half time, but mainly because he could not hold up the ball and bring others into play, I thought Gakpo would be better suited to the game.

Don't do it to yourself lads. It's like when little girls go through the catalogue putting ticks next to furniture they're going to have in their house.

 

One for the "things that make you realise you're getting old" thread, this. Can't possibly have been a single little girl anywhere doing this for at least 30 years.

If there is one thing you can say unequivocally about Nunez, it is that he will shoot. More than pretty much anyone in the world over the last few seasons. The fact there has been a big reduction in that this season is almost certainly tactical. 

 

Even the great goal against Bournemouth, Slot commented saying why is he shooting from there.

You’re a fucking clown. Mo was being a greedy bastard so many time when Nunez was ready to make the run behind the defender. Apart from his goal Salah was our least effective player yesterday. Yes he scored superb but other than that he was shite. I love him but he was. Nunez was busy all game.

Salah was also out only outlet most of the game. Both he and Nunez needed far more support. 

Agree.  Diaz was becalmed, and the midfield couldn’t impose itself.  Improved when Dom brought his legs and beautiful hair to good effect, and my boy Tsimikas with Gakpo stopped the  threat down that side.

Jorrel Hato, 6ft, 18 years old, Dutch left sided centre back who can play left back. A player who can get games at left back whilst also covering for Virgil.  I’m excited to see him turn us down for Real Madrid at some point in the future.

 

Don't fancy tbe idea of him as a long term CB at all. 6ft isn't particularly big for a CB these days, he pretty poor in the air. Granted he will get better as he's young but he seems another of these modern CB that get rated for what they can do with the ball and not their defending

There were rumours we were interested in the summer but he signed an extension I think. Depends if Slot fancies one of these newfangled centre back left backs that Arsenal have about 12 of. There’s some good average heighted centre backs in the league these days but we do seem to like the beefy boys at the back.

A new starting left back has to be added to the list 

 

Should have been added to the squad some time ago.  I said it in the summer, if not before, when others were saying we only make signings if it can improve the squad/team. Robbo has been on the decline for 2-3 years, this isn't a blip. The best young LB around (and get-able) should have been amongst the highest priorities.
