Arsenal

[philll]

They play some lovely stuff but they need to keep like 7 or 8 of those first team players fit in order to play like that. There's no real quality or game changers on the bench and he's going to run the likes of Saka into the ground again.

search my posts with the words “fantasy league” and “curse” ?

I’m one of the people calling out the scum lovers on here….almost set up an arsenal love in thread for the fuckers! ?

I didn't realize that you were a witch/wizard. Did you go to Hogwarts?

Grrrr, fuck Arsenal.

I had them nailed on for 5th.

Will have to go way and re-assess after that result

The first test of the season and they failed it, as we knew they would.

 

[KirstyG]

I enjoyed that.

they play well sadly and good football but got done by more guile. Hopefully that continues.

I'd say 5th on account of Utd, Leicester and the other chasers being way off the pace. Unless Chelsea have a weak season I don't think they'll be within 6 points of 4th at the finale.

I maintain this prediction. Once the season kicks on their squad will be too weak for them to compete. Their first team also isn't good enough to beat the top teams regularly anyway. They'll get a few home wins against the top 5, nothing more.

Tbf they looked good today but Arteta was the problem. No idea why they were so gun ho when there was plenty of time left and they were making chances. Then the 3 subs were just mad, what he was thinking?

Let's just check in with what the Tetasexuals are sayi - HOLY FUCK

Injuries starting to pile up - before Europa even gets going:

Did any of the other substitutes who were warming down get injured too?!

 

[spurs mental]

Alexa, are the Arsenal fans at it again?

Not that I know of...

But Partey injured, Zinchenko and Odegaard carrying small knocks - now if ESR is out, he is a player Arsenal would have expected to get minutes in Europa - now a starter is likely needed to play as fixtures pile up.

Big blow for them, they've barely got anyone to rotate in for the Europa League. Unless they sack the competition off entirely and play the kids then some of their regular first-team players are going to have to play and it's really going to take its toll over the season.

 

[spurs mental]

Fucking hell. Did I watch a different game? Barely any tactical mistake, except your managers subs left you more open than the Atlantic

 

[vuzp]

Yes of course we will have a good laugh at them today but looking at it for a football side that game would have been so much different if that first goal had stood, it was a foul of course and with the ref looking at it really shows how bad the PL standard of referring is at the moment and VAR is giving them the second chance they really shouldn't need.

 

[Albertbarich]

Worth repeating my opinion here as I think it's more evident today.

They're back to late Wenger levels. Pretty to watch and will steamroller teams but they can be bullied and made to die on their sword as Arteta did today.

I don't see them coping with a long grueling season

I watched it with my Scummer mate down my local. His face after the 2nd and 3rd were a picture
