We asked for your thoughts after Tuesday's Champions League game between Arsenal and Shakhtar Donetsk.

Here are some of your comments:

MJS: Awful, lacklustre, devoid of creativity. It just shows who are the creative geniuses in our team. Kai Havertz was excellent with zero service. A better team would have punished us.

Ugochukwu: Arsenal look worse than the previous season and have just been grinding out results. The beauty is fading fast. Hopefully, the returns of Bukayo Saka, Jurrien Timber and later, Martin Odegaard, will help improve performances and results. The red cards have not helped either.

Jay: A functional performance that lacked cutting edge. Can't dismiss a win in the Champions League but I'd like to see better end product in front of goal.

Craig: That was a drab performance - it's like we've lost our killer instinct. And substituting Ben White, as we are so ill-disciplined at the moment and scared we'll get another red card... it is a bit of a joke.

Ivor: Very poor. Yet again started well but unable to make it count. I think we will rue not signing a striker.

Jim: Terrible performance. Why does Mikel Arteta think Gabriel Jesus is the answer still? Look at his record - he’s not good enough. He should have played Ethan Nwaneri. It was a perfect game for him.
