Loss Premier League: Arsenal 0 - 3 Brighton And Hove Albion | Sunday 14th, May | KO: 16:30 BST | Sky Sports

Brighton conceded 5 at home to Dyche's Everton. They're still a dangerous team. But I think we should be fairly comfortable. They're not a physical side like Newcastle. They play football the 'right way' which should suit us.

Our record has not been greet against them since they gained promotion back in 2017. They've always made life difficult for us. Even the game we won was always a struggle. Think this season was the first time we beat them emphatically. No reason not to beat them at home especially as they'll be low on confidence. We beat them, we put them at risk of losing European football and they play out of their skin to get a result against City.





Think the lineup picks itself tbh except maybe Jorginho eps his place.



Prediction

Arsenal 2-0 Brighton

This person stalks the players for signatures on shirts and sells them for a living. Someone needs to stop him/her/they/them.

You looked up Xhaka’s home address after All or Nothing.

 

[SomGooner]

I hope I never ever see Southampton in the premier league again. Useless bogey cvnts.

I’m not a stalker I never went there!

I’d rather Jay Sean up front than our Brazilian fraud ffs

Jay Sean is so ****ing underrated, used to have some serious bangers

Has it been an enjoyable season? It’s debatable. We’re not winning anything, and I don’t think our football is actually enjoyable to watch.

It’s been a good season, I’ll say that. Going to get around 90 points which is nothing to sniff at. We took advantage of what was a clearly weaker league this season.

I’ll say anything but a weaker league. The league was so difficult that the smallest disruptions to top teams dropped them right down to the rest of the pack. Look at your usual suspects Liverpool, Chelsea, Sp**s.

And look at the traditional performers below them, Leicester, Everton, West Ham, Palace. They fell into relegation because of disruption and/or poor planning.

In the past you could be disrupted but still stay competitive, as seen with Liverpool and Chelsea and even Sp**s as recent as last season.

That was the first sign of a stronger league, no room for error anymore.

The second sign is that you don’t go to Brentford, Brighton, Villa, Fulham, Newcastle and just win anymore. These teams are far better equipped and prepared to challenge the best.

Next season will be worse. Liverpool, Chelsea, Sp**s, United will all be better next year. Add to that Newcastle, Villa, Brentford, Brighton, Fulham, and likely Palace as well. Everton and Leicester stand a chance of recovering too.

The top 10 has potential to be a dog fight next year.

How about them jeans? Boots with the fur.

Low low low low low.

 

[Tir Na Nog]

Unpopular opinion but 07/08 was more enjoyable despite not winning anything.

The second half of the season was brutal though. Not sure what was worse the Birmingham game when Adebayor didn’t pass to Bendtner to finish them off or how we got robbed against Liverpool in the CL quarters.

It's one of my favourite seasons ever. We played unbelievable football at times. That Cesc-Hleb-Adebayor combination was crazy.

 

[Tir Na Nog]

07-08 also arguably peak of the PL. All premier league CL final and you could seriously argue the PL top 4 was also the best 4 teams in Europe. Can't think of a team that could compete with them that year. Inter were a top side back then but even then they lost to Liverpool who were comfortably 4th best in the PL.

The level of talent was insane too Ronaldo, Rooney, Tevez, Torres, Gerrard, Alonso, Lampard, Drogba, Anelka, Cesc, Adeabyor, Hleb and defenders like Terry, Vidic, Toure, Ferdinand, Carvalho.

 

[Tourbillion]

He was talented though, on par with Drogba at his peak. Better than anyone we have today, I’ll say.

Absolutely, for a year or two.

So thick and selfish though. Not making that simple pass to Bendtner (also thick) was criminal.

 

[BergMan]

Does anyone have the feeling Xhaka might be benched for this because of all the exit rumours?
Hope not.

I doubt Mick bases his selection on internet rumours.

Yeah, but don’t forget the league’s so much easier than it used to be.

Surely you’ll miss Theo?

I feel it is slightly criminal to include Hleb on this list, but otherwise fully agree!

And for subjective reasons, I cannot include Adebayor on any positive list, ever.

Why Hleb was world class for us? Go look at his performances in Europe for us like at the Bernabeu and at the San Siro, he was at a crazy level.

 

[BergMan]

Not going to watch the Man City game. No need for all that stress.

Absolutely not.

Truly elite in that CL campaign.
