Idk probably, but if you ever watch Haaland's antics he's a dick all the time.


If the league has any balls Haaland gets ant least a one match ban for throwing the ball at Gabriel's head after the goal.
This might be the funniest thing I've read in a while.


Not sure why you find it funny if I did that in a rec game it would be a straight red why is it not in EPL.
It's funny that you think they would ever do something like that to Haaland.

That's all I meant.

Still shocked that the predictable end of game nightmare actually came to fruition. Playing with 10, should be viewed as a victory and yet feels like a loss. Also, would've shut City fans up for a looooonnngggg time to embarrass them at home with only 10

The fact that I'm seeing multiple people/pundits going after Arsenal for playing bunker ball like they did is also hilarious to me. Missing our best midfielder, in a week with 3 away matches and international travel, away at the Etihad against a top 2 team in the world and then down to 10 men, but you have the lead. What the **** are we supposed to do.

I guess we could have just played open and lost 5-nil like Liverpool a few years ago.

Every single team on the planet would have done the exact same thing. We didn't ruin the match. The ref did.

And I agree that it definitely feels like a loss to me today even though it wasn't

exactly. either way, W or D, should feel top of the world today. That ending was just so brutal....on top of all the continued protection City gets from the league. Oh well, either way, City fans should be very humbled.

To be unbiased, Gabriel Jesus got one against City (probably deserved) so not sure that's 100% accurate

But that being said, **** Michael Oliver

As was said in one of the podcasts, in my heart its a loss but intellectually it's a great draw for us.

And I don't know what MC expected from us. Are we supposed to step out of the way and let them score? We get criticized when we play too much "pretty soccer" and then we get criticized for playing gritty defensive soccer. So, f'em.

And did every MC player read from a teleprompter after the game. Piss off.
If you say you hate the state of politics in this nation and you don't get involved in it, you obviously don't hate the state of politics in this nation.

Rumors based off Arteta's press conference today that someone else picked up a significant injury against City. He said they're still waiting on results from some testing. Timber and Calafiori both went off after going down. White didn't start because of a knee issue but then played the entire 2nd half. Raya was limping badly after the game.

Hopefully it was just word play because we can't afford anymore injuries at this rate.

I fully expect Nwaneri and Lewis-Skelly to start tomorrow. Saka went off after 45 minutes so I see him playing tomorrow. Probably something like this

------------Raya------------
White--Saliba--Kiwior--MLS
------------Partey-------------
----Nwaneri----Jorginho----
Saka------------------Sterling
-------------Jesus-------------


Again if Raya is injured, we are down to a youth GK. 16 year Jack Porter was on the bench for the CL match last week. Brian Okonkwo is the current U21 GK

Also I continue to love the hypocrites when it comes to "dark arts" and time wasting. Look who leads the league in time wasting after goal kicks in the first 5 games. We're 2nd but have also played 90 minutes down to 10 men.

Looks like the news coming out is that its official that 16 year old Jack Porter is going to start in the League Cup tonight because Raya is injured

Finally a little good news...

Next year's 3rd kit will bring back the colors from our 07-08 away





I have one of these, but it has van Persie on the back so I can't wear it. Looking forward to this one.

Not opposed to that 3rd but it feels a little weird to me having a red/white home and white/maroon 3rd. Feel like red & maroon are a little too close. Would kind of prefer we match (ie maroon & white home) but realistically, I doubt we ever sport the maroon home again.

It is possibly the most popular kit of all time and it was an accident. Nike sent kits in the wrong color and there wasn't enough time to fix the mistake.

Do you think Mikel is making Porter do his homework before playing tonight?

No clue who any of these guys are but according to the replies most of the regular starters are on the bench....

I think Bolton have had a pretty rough start to the league and they're playing catch up already. They made the playoffs the last 2 years.

Also Jack Porter is now officially the youngest person to ever start at first team match for Arsenal at 16 years old and 72 days. Fabregas held the record at 16 and 177 days. Ethan Nwaneri holds the record for youngest ever player when he played as a sub against Brentford several years ago at 15.

MLS with a beautiful through ball to Sterling, slotted across the box for a goal from Nwaneri

Nwaneri needs some EPL minutes with MO out
MLS looks good offensively but based on other games I think he needs a little defensive work. I'm curious if we see him move back to MF when Jorge & Partey move on.

I honestly think Arteta was just waiting to get through last week and Nwaneri will start getting lots of PL minutes from here on out.
