[Chairman Steve]

Whoever wins is going to have the most insufferable, crowing fans on Twitter until the start of the season. I didn’t realise this match was as soon as this Saturday.

Woah. Now I'm wondering if I should buy a Paul Smith suit??

Henderson and Elanga travelling is … frustrating.

Henderson and Elanga travelling is … frustrating.

Oh no... Now Ten Hag will see him play and instantly cancel the Onana transfer.

Henderson is a ploy to get Forest to up their offer. The club is bluffing putting pressure on Forest to quickly increase the offer thinking TH might keep him if he plays well.

Van Der Beek hat trick

Please just win. Pre season or not these fecking goons will be insufferable if they get a victory. They’ll all be flapping their gums about how Arteta’s going to lead them to a quad.

 

[Dazzmondo]

Surprised Forson made the squad. ETH clearly sees something in him. Nice to see Gore make the squad following his good performance against Lyon. The rest of the squad was as expected (maybe Kovar not making squad a bit surprising).

 

[lex talionis]

A pre-season workout, nothing more. A win is not nearly as relevant as getting in quality minutes for players on the bubble.

And I hope they do. Makes the end of season “Let’s laugh at Arsenal” thread that much more sweeter

 

[VARsenal]

Tasty pre-season match going into the new season, looking forward to Saturday.

 

[ColvaleGoa]

And good time too... can't wait!

They are already ahead of us in pre-season prep and have been in the US for a while. I wouldn't want to focus on the result much but we could end up losing since it would be the first run out for many folks.

They'll be many moaning and AFTV are probably recording a music video as we speak.

Hopefully the mods slap a couple bans on people for getting silly

It's a preseason. It's about minutes in the legs. Doesn't matter about the result really and anyone that uses an early preseason match as a barometer is thick

Of course the result doesn’t matter and it’s all about fitness but that won’t stop Arsenal fans hyping themselves up to no end. It’s just what they do.

We gonna see the midfield trio we’re expected to start the season with? Mount, Casemiro and Bruno.

Looks like it. Double pivot if this tweet is anything to go by.

Casemiro - Mount

Possibly for half the game.
I will be interested to see Mainoo, Hannibal and Gore, if they get the opportunity, perform against Arsenal's midfield, but realistically we'll probably see the more senior players getting a run out.

So this is only shown on VG+ @SirAF @Samid? Wth are we paying Viaplay.

Doubt the social media people have a clue what ETH tactics are.

Seems so. Viaplay are in deep financial trouble now so be prepared to pay even more this season

I know, f... them!!

So not on MUTV?

Edit: actually it is.

All pre season games are always on MUTV. This one you can also watch on arsenal.com.

 

[Dr. Dwayne]

5pm is a terrible time to play football in North America in July.

 

[CallyRed]

Chance to lay down a statement ahead of the new season. Lose this and questions will start to be asked.
Which will be swiftly answered with "it's fecking pre-season, pull yourself together"

I guess they'll be wearing their neon yellow spaghetti confection since we haven't released our new away shirt yet?

 

[gerdm07]

On ESPN in the states!

MUTV! It’s only like 100 NOK a year.

When are we likely to see the senior players play like 70 mins?

 

[DJ_21]

Why is Chelsea friendly against Brighton shown on sky sports yet ours is just shown in MUTV.

Is Onana playing?

Yeah I’d forgotten that I’d still got an active subscription until I saw the Lyon game was on.

I honestly find the “biased” commentary a breath of fresh air having endured so much that is blatantly ABU from the supposedly professional mainstream broadcasters.
