Ings doesn’t even look particularly interested tonight. 
Lots of shrugging of shoulders and not much more. 
he’s lost that spring in his step and that appetite it seems. 
hope he proves me wrong but the body language says more about a player who’s not ‘ in the game’ 

We're forgetting he's not really got back to form yet after his injury, and he's not received the passes he needs to be able to finish. He just needs the one pass in the right place. Unfortunately, it's probably not going to come from Walcott

Theo has been an excellent signing you fuckwits

People are just expecting/demanding him to be a world beater. But he's not.

He's good at what he does and he's been a good outlet for us. He's never been a clinical finisher, a good decision maker or blessed with the most amazing technique - so if fans want that, then they need to watch Messi.

We are without 3 of our first choice defenders, missing our starting CM*, don’t have a fully fit Redmond and also without Djenepo/Tella.

Any team will suffer with an injury list like that and our players are knackered from Saturday unlike Arsenal who have made 5 changes and started with a £45m mid + £54m striker etc etc

So not too many complaints given we are somewhat in it- but it does feel like we are getting sliced open. 

 

*not that Diallo has been terrible- he’s been our 2nd best player aft Stu tonight I’d say

Spot on

Couldn’t he have taken Valery off and put Diallo there instead of left back?

He could have but Valery has had a decent second half, Vokins had been poor. Correct decision for me.
