Arsenal ain't that guy.
Premier League Festive Season (Gameweek 18-20)
- Thread starter Samid
- Start date
Pep is an insane league manager. And even with their terrible results they are just 2 behind Liverpool. Very difficult to still see anyone past them.
About that time for the annual Arsenal collapse to start. I'd still rather them than City or Liverpool even if they have nutty fans. Gotta hold out hope Villa can hold form but that's highly doubtful.
I despise Arsenal. I'm holding on hope that Aston Villa will win the league. And I can appreciate Arsenal dropping points without having one eye on the league table
They've only won 1 of their last 4 league matches before today, i think the collapse could've already started!
What a job big Ange is doing!!
I genuinely didn’t know Havertz was playing until he got subbed off
Villa have the 2nd highest points per game since our League Cup win. Averaging 2.14 points. Only City have higher, so not impossible that they get involved in a title race. They're a quality team under Emery.
At least we didnt pay 65m pounds for McT
Pep must be pissing himself at how easy this league will be for him.
Jesus Palhinha is hard.
Pause
Spurs 3 up.
Eh? How come the keeper could pick that up there? Didn't Jesus backheel it to him?
What a tank of a man
So predictable that they'll go on a 10 game winning run when De Bruyne returns and end up winning the league by like 10 points.
He's getting the lower club bonus treatment. If he was playing for a top 6 club, half his challenges would be given as fouls.
Dissent, give him a 2nd!
Years ago if you were 2-5 points behind top on NYD you'd be happy with that and expect things to get better in the second half of the season.
City have raised the bar so high that draws aren't good enough and they'll get their act together.
Yellow?
Utd got a lucky escape with Martinelli
Yeah I don't reckon much to him as a player. Let someone else spend a shitload on a guy who relies on his physicality and will turn 30 in a year.
No second yellow for dissent to Saliba?
Nevermind his foul could have been a straight red for stopping a clear chance
Nevermind his foul could have been a straight red for stopping a clear chance
Pereira has turned into a solid player
And get de bruyne back
Will Pep finally feck off this season after winning everything at club level with City (again) and Brazil/Germany/Spain fail to win the Copa America/Euros?
Andreas off the bar
No chance
Game time has raised his confidence.
That is why I want to see lines. If there are any lines.
And that is not truth. We know what happened to Garnacho goal against Arsenal.
Arsenal choking again last year! their attack has been below par over the last few months. very difficult to win the league with Jesus as number 9!
Now 3-1, Bournemouth with one back.
Arsenal need to buy a striker.
What happened as a rarity isn't necessarily a reason to be doubtful here. VAR on offsides, has been ridiculously ruthless overall
Horsechoker in 3,2,1....
Arsenal nailed on to get an equaliser.
Clear foul by Odegaard
They don't even need to go on an incredible run.
Thurs-Sun schedule will stretch Liverpool and Villa. Arsenal will do an Arsenal. If they are top in February before R16 CL then they'll be tough to knock off.
Saka has been Antony like
Yeah, should have been a yellow too. Ref just ignored it
