Feels like this half isn't going to be as enjoyable.

We just need to weather the first 10 mins and we’ll score again

Two big changes by Capt Black

Arteta showing his hand early.

Unai will probably have a good idea of what the changes will mean in terms of their set up, style and tactics; so I imagine he'll be relaying instructions to the team in terms of how to respond.

Hope we've got the footballing intelligence to carry out what he says.

We should have sent the same 11 as we did first half
