Another second-half win, hopefully the second half of our season will be as good as the second half of our matches.
As long we win the game in the end I don't care if we win first halvesReally need to start winning first halves
Just got in from the fan fest here in NYC. Pretty fun to have so many people from all the fanbases celebrating the PL. Very, very strange XI from Emery and equally strange subs. We definitely rode our luck. Still, 3 points is 3 points and Torreira is an absolute hero. As an aside, I really can't wait for Huddersfield to be relegated. What an absolute sh*thouse group of players. I'm sure there's plenty of teams in the Championship that would like to actually come up and play football instead of laying on the Emirates grass for 90 minutes wasting time. Disgusting way to "play".
They're desperate. They can't buy a goal. I actually liked Wagner last season but they seemed to have done absolutely nothing to address their issues and now he's setting up his players to go rogue in matches.Just got in from the fan fest here in NYC.

You'll be in for a treat if Middlesborough get promoted.They're desperate. They can't buy a goal. I actually liked Wagner last season but they seemed to have done absolutely nothing to address their issues and now he's setting up his players to go rogue in matches.
Pretty sure a lot of teams from the championship will adopt that approach once they get into the premier league. You either do that or go the Fulham way and get battered trying to be a footballing team.You'll be in for a treat if Middlesborough get promoted.
One of the worst managed games I've seen in a while. Starting with 3 defenders against Huddersfield at home and replacing Laca with Iwobi who is completely out of form was ridiculous.
Lucky 3 points for us so there won't be many complaints but Emery needs to do better than this.
You can go out there and compete without resorting to what more than borders on cheating. They alternated between putting in awful tackles, diving and staying on the floor for no reason. I'm never going to respect that. It's one thing to be outmatched and park the bus. I even understand being a little physical. To basically have your defining tactic be laying on the floor feigning injury is repulsive. If that's the best they've got to offer then they should f*ck off down to the Championship now and let a team with some dignity take their place. I've never seen such a sorry display, even in cup matches against teams 2 and 3 divisions lower.Gonna be tough with suspensions and unfit CB against Southampton. Good thing is they cannot score to save their lives
Do you really blame them given their squad quality? This was a bonus game and almost got something out of it
That doesn't mean they have to resort to what they were doing today. Teams in the relegation zone are always desperate. Rarely do you see them taking the time wasting and play acting to the extent we saw today.They're desperate. They can't buy a goal.

We've seen a shift to the subscription model for sports already so I am not that surprised, however I believe a) it's very surprising to see such an unknown entity like DAZN awarded the rights and I wonder who is financially backing them to be order to snag the rights from TSN b) it should be mandatory to have a balance of availability of subscriptions and regular cable for sports broadcasting as it is deeply rooted in culture.It's a legitimate dedicated sports IPTV platform. Similar to Setanta Sports in Ireland (when it existed).
They won the rights for the CL last season and now it looks like they're going to win the PL if that that journo reported is true.
