Arsenal are fecking shit. No goals from open play in 8 hours. The one time they tried to attack against Villa as they were 1 down they got easily picked off on the break. Shit team. Shame for them they can’t play against Pogba every week giving away penalties as that’s the only way they look like scoring.

Yes I did just bring up Pogba when talking about something nothing to do with him

Another impotent display from Arsenal. Going absolutely nowhere this team.

Have to make sure the sky footage is 20 secs ahead and I was hoping for the big meltdown when they conceded. Shame that didn't come.

Painful is a spot on description though. Ty and that Yardie bloke are beyond deluded and Yardie makes a very irritating tutting sort of noise repeatedly.

Ty saying Arsenal don't get decisions because Wenger was French was unbelievable. Stupid beyond belief.He's obviously not a clever bloke and the instant range nature of the live watchalong is just asking for trouble. As seen with previous outbursts from Claude and Troopz.

Surprised DT hasn't called someone an inappropriate word by now!
These live watch alongs are really just asking for trouble. Miss Claude though. Was a good laugh watching him lose it with Ty.

Arteta acting like he hadn’t parked the bus long before Pepe got sent off

They're a mid-table club. They are not the benchmark.
Arteta is constantly lauded as better than Ole on here. Now we are above City and Arsenal. Its a legitimate point to make imo.
Its a strange, strange season. 2 more wins and we could be touching top

Red Card for Casemiro!
Good result for them really though. Got battered with 10 men away from home and got a point. They'll take it.
Good point for them, yes. But they are below us with an extra game played, and that's a poor return for their sacrifice of attacking football. An FA Cup win and a Pog-gift of a penalty shouldn't take away from the fact that Arteta is overrated on this forum.

Interviewer: Mikael what did you think of the red card? Must be disappointed?
Arteta: Yes it was unacceptable
Interviewer: Have you had a chance to speak to the player?
Arteta: Yes
Interviewer: What did you say to him?
Arteta: It was unacceptable

Worth staying to hear that!

Oh yeah that old chestnut. I don't subscribe to the Arteta hype at all.

I agree it's just weird this season. I agree on that point and my opinion was always we should judge where we are after 10 games or so and I reckon we'll be near enough by then.

Can't believe we're above Arsenal and City. This season is a circus.

The game was pretty entertaining to be fair.
Seriously? No it wasn't.

Arsenal were toothless, even more after the red card.

And Leeds were nowhere near dangerous.
Yeah, three times they hit the post but it was two solo efforts and a Bamford header.

Other then that, zero threat. Their attacking play was like watching us. No pattern of play, zero triangles, lame crosses into nobody. Bamford was isolated.

Boring game.
