Win Premier League: Arsenal 5 - 0 Nottingham Forest | Sunday 30th, October | KO: 14:00 GMT |

We just have to find a way to win this, not just win but win style. A statement performance. Need to reignite that fear factor again.

Prediction

Arsenal 2-0 Nottingham Forest

People are being exceptionally harsh on Jesus, at the start of the season he was scoring with virtually every touch.

Clearly a confidence player, he'll find his mojo again...as long as we're scoring 5 goals a game and he's playing an important part to the team that's primarily all that matters.

But we're obviously not scoring 5 goals per game and there are a lot of games when we don't have our shooting boots on, so a consistent scorer would definitely put us at ease when we're looking for a goal.

 

[Riou]

Great to pump the goal difference up too, always nice to have that as a fall back option.

Could be a nice advantage over United, Chelsea and Pool come season's end.

 

[Bloodbather]

Missed the game because of an appointment, great win. Really happy for Nelson.

[2Smokeyy]

Very good player but doesn't have the pace or strength of Jesus.
Six years older & goals to games ratio worse than GJ. Gunman in front of goal?
Be mad to take over Gabby J at the moment.
5 years ago? yes ok.

Would Firmino
have moved to
Arsenal five years ago when he
was competing for the title
And Champions leagUe?
Answer is
No

 

[Tom Mix]

I'm not sure that's it. If that were the case, you'd think Arteta would give Saka a break considering the WC is right around the corner, but no, he's running him into the ground every game.

Tierney isn't being protected, he is being benched. I think he'll be off in the summer with his value reduced.

 

[Riou]

...King Bac was loving it!

 

[Pop Tart]

I was unhappy with the first half as a 1 nil scoreline is never safe even against crap opposition. Lads done well 2nd half and looked more desired and put on a good show. Credit to them

 

[ptrcopp]

Tierney, has to understand that he needs to be protected, the guy has been injured every 5 games then out for 2-3months.

Until he gets a degree of robustness he shouldn't be playing every game.

You’re right. He also looks like he lost a lot in the successive injuries - which were forced by successive managers Because he was the only option.

 

[ptrcopp]

This was the game the team needed. Don’t understand why people are moaning in here. Comfortable apart from a bizarre few moments after Saka’s injury. Confidence for the whole team there. XI looked brilliant. Nelson played brilliantly second half, Ode scored, Tierney had a decent cameo.

It was a job done with a score line we’d want if not expect

Agree. I think we're the second highest scorers and have the joint second best defence. Keep and improve this and we can dream a bit more.

@OnlyOne Jesus’ struggles are good for some people

Callux is actually a freak when it comes to betting, bordeline match fixing suspicions.

Cesc too...



...99% sure this means "Bad Man Nelson", in Spanish.

Tierney is injury-prone. Saka isn't.

 

[yorch44]

Look saka injury is around the ankle area.

Arteta say he hopes it's just knock

I wouldn't care less if he is injured for some weeks if that means giving Nelson more time to growth and explode. Then we will have another attacker otherwise Arteta wouldn't use. This automatically makes our squad bigger and would be literally like a new signing. Also let Saka rest to come back for the second part of the season.

It is unsustainable to play Saka every match and just use your subs for 5-10 mins every 3rd match.

Because people are always so truthful on Twitter.

This. The only thing the game was missing was a goal for Jesus who really needs one and even then he got 2 assists which could have been 3 if Reiss had finished the first chance rather than the rebound for his first goal.

Not harsh, just reality. If he were more clinical we could have won the game we draw. He wastes good chances. There will be more close games where those chances are so few you need to score them or you draw or lose.

Ødegaard give him today a 1vs1 against the goalkeeper and he was so poor.
