[Jury]

But a bad day against ______________ justifies your bullshit?

Note: That's only 45% serious, 55% I couldn't resist the set-up was too good.

Same team

I'm not the manager though. That's 100% serious.

 

[Jury]

Cech
Bellerin Koscielny Monreal Kolasinac
Wilshere Xhaka Elneny
Ramsey
Welbeck Lacazette



We can't allow Özil & Alexis to disrupt our season anymore, they either sign contracts or get dropped. Enough is enough now.

I hate this man. But gods, if you can't say he doesn't still have passion and love for the sport.

Don't you think "hate" is an overreach?
Such a strong word for someone who has not done anything to you
personally.

 

[carlito'sway]

Still can`t understand how someone can hate Wenger. Want him gone, being extremely frustrated with him, fine, but hate him. That`s quite something considering what he has done for the club and simply for the fact that he seems to be a a very decent human being.

Amen to that....I didn't see it before posting my comment. I can't wrap my head around this either.

 

[Gooner Zig]

If we want to make Top 4 this season we have to play Özil, Alexis and Lacazette in every PL game (injury permitting)

Anyone who thinks other wise is a daft ****.

 

[STATS]

Credit to @STATS he knew what all the pundits and football writers didn't. There's a lot more than two or three of our players would get in that Sp**s squad.

Was a great performance all around. We played like we wanted it far more than them.
I would have chosen wilshere instead of Özil, but by god, I think he was sublime. Best I have seen him play for a long long time. MOTM for me.

Keeping Özil and Sanchez in their final year and then not playing them is the height of lunacy. Pure self-harm.

Cutting your nose off to spite your face as they say...

Brilliant performance by the team. Solid defense and fluid passing. Above all, our players have started trying to hit the ball far away from the keeper instead of targeting his belly. I would still point out a couple of areas to improve:
1) Starting jitters - Team seems to make some mistakes and be incoherent in the beginning of matches. Koscielny made two bad errors in the first ten minutes. Lucky that we were not punished. I understand that the first few minutes can be nervy in a high pressure match. But we these mistakes can turn costly in the future.
2) Counter attacks - We don't seem to have a proper counter attacking plan. Players look confused about where to run. In the second half, we got so many counter attacking chances which should have ended in goals. They all ended with premature passing or players not taking runs properly. These chances will help us kill the game. Given that many teams try to sit deep against us, if we score one goal they will open up the defense giving us many such chances. We shouldn't miss those.

YES!!! Just watched the game as I was working and avoided ALL social media and TV until the replay tonight - SO HAPPY! Every player put in a great performance and Özil looked particularly well as he was tracking back, making passes and was all over the pitch, truly deserved that MOTM. So proud, I love you Arsenal! Enjoy fellow Gunners and good night

One of the funniest moments of the match tbh I was surprised this is the first time I've seen it mentioned

 

[celestis]

I see John Cross went for a Sp**s win 3-1

Tried to be a hard man, fell and broke his ass lmao. Later in the game Kola gave him a nudge, and Trippier went flying
Absolutely bullied the ****

 

[BurnCK]

I notice Wenger didn't complain about non-existent fouls or offsides this week....

Need a couple more akin to Kolasinac.

 

[Sniper Mik]

Crazy to think we had almost 11 tanks like Kolasinac in the Invincibles side.One of the biggest mistakes we ever made switching from that mould to the short technical players.

Agreed, it's strange how bad we've become at counter attacks. We rarely score on a breakaway. Never seem to get it right.

His joint XI never had Özil in it either, despite his tweet after the match licking his arse. What a weird man.
