PL | Arsenal v Leicester City | 11/08/17 19:45 BST | Sky Sports

[samshere]

Giroud held off half the Leicester team to score a goal. Should shut up those that say he isn't strong enough. Both Laca and Giroud will be vital this season. Lacas manoevring to get his shot off just before the second goal was beautiful

 

[Yousif Arsenal]

Stop flirting the presenter Arsène

 

[arsmile]

honest stuff from Arsène about giroud after the match:

'I opened the door for him to leave but he wanted to stay because he loves the club'


right...if us fans give him half a second of **** this season they deserve a right royal punch in the face

he is awesome ... he's a true fan .... and he won us this match like he'll win us a whole bunch this season

 

[razörist]

We made Andy Carrol look like Zlatan and Troy Deeney like the second coming of Emile Heskey. Today our defense handed Vardy a cape and turned him into Superman.

Can't wait to see Linekers face when they show that "significant" Özil handball 5 times on MotD. Again a pre-assist for our German Prince.

MOTD! Is there one tonight? What time?

 

[Makingtrax]

You probably had your doubts... But I put too much work for us not to win this

As soon as you said you were watching . . had no doubts

 

[Yousif Arsenal]

Only Arsenal can give you that type of welcome back ffs.

I'm knackered and I've been sat down for 3 hours.

That why its called the banter era

 

[Godwin1]

Can't believe those stats:

One more goal
4 times the attempts on goal
3 times more on target
3 times more touches in the opposition box
Twice as many corners
Ran 2km more
More than double the procession.

If 4 of our CBs weren't missing we would have thrashed them.

Our CM was as much an issue, went to sleep for a period in the game. But yeah would have been more convincing if our CB's were about.

"El Nenny brings better balance"

Jesus Christ.

He does, he's just boring.

Many players who could bring better balance without being as boring as him. We all know Ramsey makes things happen but we can afford for him to leave the slow, un-agile Xhaka isolated?

 

[Jackie_Treehorn]

giroud's header is one of the most difficult I've seen

I still don't know how he got that much power into it.

 

[GoonerBoy19]

I think Holding just had a bad game today. Its the first one he's had so I wouldn't be too hard on him. Not saying he's a starter though but he should get more games. P

He doesn't look fit, his preseason games were similar as well.

 

[Sniper Mik]

I'm still at a loss for words at how poor we were but somehow managed to win.

Ramsey makes things happens with runs or creative link up.

We do nothing when Elneny just stand there next to Xhaka. When Elneny is forced to move up the field to create something not only is he **** at that but he also leaves Xhaka isolated.

 

[razörist]

I still don't know how he got that much power into it.

West brom at home or something last season? He's standing still with two defenders and he just destroys them. So good!!

 

[Trilly]

Seriously, I thought Welbeck played well. Lots of nice combination play + created a good chance for Bellerin

He did, he definitely did. Goal bound shot blocked, got a goal and showed some link up play and touches I didn't know he was capable of.

Probably a fluke but still, credit where it's due.

 

[Sniper Mik]

Could've scored 5 or 6 more goals easily, could've conceded the same amount as well.

 

[Santi's Left Foot]

Such an impressive victory considering our home fans do absolutely no favors to the team. By far the worst home fans in the league, glad it didn`t seem to affect the new boys.

You can understand the frustration and that's not just with the players tbf.

 

[Gunnerz4life4ever]

I am drained after watching that, time for bed.

 

[Makingtrax]

I'm still at a loss for words at how poor we were but somehow managed to win.

I'm guessing you were watching a different match.

 

[Taylor Gang Gunners]

You gotta give it to giroud when hes under pressure he comes out fighting.

Love you man. @OnlyOne too

 

[Trilly]

This.

Imagine if we ALL logged on at the end of the game to post our hindsight wisdom.

the ****ing state of @Trilly

I posted during the game you wasteman/clown. What now? Lying on the internet, new low.

I just didn't give myself a coronary and start frothing at the mouth like you tend to do after every misplaced pass.

Dickhead.
