As long as your keeper knows how to pass, he doesn't have to come out on corners and shit things like that.

Exactly. Whole game they have been playing from behind. What a stupid football tactics. Clubs need to go from that and send ball longer. This is all on Brighton and nothing on Arsenal.

Brighton defender heading that to Jesus for a tap in header? Arsenal for the last 18 months have the sort of champions luck that Liverpool have.

Expect that they also gave the corner away exactly because he couldn't pass. :lol:

I understand that you are supporting him, but there aren’t to many other fans thinking his behaviour is normal.

Jesus knew what he was doing. If it was away game he would be off.
No, I think his behavior is over the top quite often, but I still prefer that than a lifeless manager. I would be annoyed with him as a rival fan. But that is nowhere close to a red card.

Brighton have done nothing in this game. I'm surprised it's taken so long for Arsenal to go ahead.

It's infuriating watching it.
I'm an idiot an even I know when they should be getting rid of the fkin ball as long as possible.

When Arsenal take the lead, you know the game is largely over. If this was City, you'd expect Brighton to equalize with their only shot on target. If it was Liverpool, they'd concede and then score a winner in the 95th.

Brighton have done that a number of times this season, Verbuggen has been caught out before

In the last few games we have looked more dominant but can't find the goal, we were playing far worse before that and could get a couple. That's football I guess.

Caf's hipster choice De Zerbi surely showing everyone up isn't he? Makes me laugh when people say they will take him or Potter over ETH. I don't think Brighton even had a single attack today.

Hinshelwood looks a tidy player. Seems to be a central midfielder but when I've seen him he has been required to play fullback and still looks quite composed. Would be nice to see him in midfield and in his natural position.

I mean Ten Hag himself was a hipster choice

Semi-automated offsides can't come soon enough in the PL. 5 mins to check that is ridiculous.

I mean, I can understand wanting ETH out but it has to be for someone better. How are Potter and De Zerbi better than ETH? This Brighton team who are still below than this United team.

I get it you don't like ETH, but surely winning trophies count for something. You can't big up Potter bringing some club up from the lower divisions and then totally discard ETH winning trophies.

Great clearance from Dunk. Arsenal are just a fantastic team, they haven't given Brighton a moment on the ball.

Both Arsenal wingers have their full backs on toast, such a depressing watch as a United fan.

Could have been red card again. Arsenal is lucky, lucky club.
We should start every game with 9 players and Arteta forced to sit on a stool in the parking lot so you can relax a bit.

Seriously? the fact that they didnt have 400 million to invest in new players would be my guess. Also, they play much nicer football than we do and lets be honest, we have at least 9 extra points this season that we had no business having. We got lucky in a handful of games.
