Zimchenko makes me nervous when he is passing around in the back. 

Not his best showing tonight.  Hasn't looked sharp on either end.  Kiwior is clearly in our best XI.

I get bringing on Rice; lock down the points.  Eddie? Yeah, he needs minutes I suppose. I still think we see Tomi for Zinny and Martinelli/Jesus for Reiss.

That was about as boring a half as you’ll watch.    Oh well, 3 points back to the top of the table for now.

Pretty much on cruise control in the second half, glad that didn’t bite us in the ass. 

Yup and Yup.  Three points and on to the next.  Got the goals in the 1H while getting some guys a much needed rest, since it gets thick and hair real fast*: Brighton Saturday, Bayern Tuesday, Villa Sunday, Bayern Wednesday, Wolves Saturday, Chelsea Tuesday, shit Saturday. Damn.

2nd half wasnt a thing of beauty, but that is an effective killing off of a half, against a team who had been scoring goals.

That is a really salient point. Taking the sting out of a game and killing it off was something we struggled with in recent years, even earlier in this season.  In years past, we'd have charged out in the 2H, got hit on the counter, then been forced to sweat out a 2-1, hoping a weird bounce didn't level it in extra time.  Sometimes I forget this Arteta's first managerial position. He's learning and improving by leaps just like the players.

Thought Arteta woukd start Partey with an eye to keeping Jorg fresh for Bayern. 

Expecting a tough game. They are on a slide but will show out today. Still…

Let’s. Fucking. Go.

Yeah Kai, Øde, and White are piling up the minutes. Read somewhere that the medical staff is amazed that Benny Blanco is able to play damn near every minute with the injury he’s carrying. Tomi returning should let Benny get a break here and there.
