SoupACabra@lemmy.wtf · 4 pts · 2y

It's fucking Atwell on VAR

Astrealix@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 2y

i thought it was a replay for a second

nuggsy@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 2y (2 replies)

Wait, no offside?? Beautiful!!!

forgrytaboutit@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 2y (1 reply)

I'm almost surprised VAR didn't hold up play longer just to look for something.

nuggsy@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 2y

Same, lol

SoupACabra@lemmy.wtf · 4 pts · 2y

How about Partey return from injury or is that too much to ask

nuggsy@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 2y

Fuck, I keep forgetting he's still with us, haha

Astrealix@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 2y

Mateta's name always reminds me of Arteta lol.

nuggsy@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 2y (1 reply)

Nice solid win. COYG

If Palace weren't so off the pace, I think we would have struggled

forgrytaboutit@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 2y

Nice that we also helped close the goal difference gap with City significantly.

nuggsy@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 2y

Old football player is confused why so many coaches are involved in the game considering all the stakes that are involved.... lol

forgrytaboutit@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 2y (5 replies)

Do you think Palace will actually mark Gabriel? Or are they just resigned to their fate at this point?

Astrealix@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 2y (2 replies)

p.s. welcome to c/gunners lol i think you're new

forgrytaboutit@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 2y (1 reply)

nuggsy@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 2y (1 reply)

I'll delay my reactions, lol

Astrealix@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 2y

nuggsy@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 2y (6 replies)

Rice with a knock apparently?

raumdeuter@arsenalfc.social · 3 pts · 2y (5 replies)

hope nothing serious

forgrytaboutit@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 2y (4 replies)

Jorginho is definitely showing how crucial Rice is.

raumdeuter@arsenalfc.social · 2 pts · 2y (3 replies)

and now Big Gabi is down and they're doing the knee test. Fahhhhk

forgrytaboutit@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 2y

We need Tomiyasu back...

forgrytaboutit@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 2y (1 reply)

And now White is struggling. What is happening?

raumdeuter@arsenalfc.social · 1 pts · 2y

I blame Dubai

nuggsy@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 2y (2 replies)

Can we not fuck around the box. Makes me nervous everytime, lol

Astrealix@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 2y (1 reply)

I mean, that's literally our strategy is to fuck around in the box to pull their structure apart and create overloads so :p

nuggsy@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 2y

I know, just makes me nervvy

SoupACabra@lemmy.wtf · 3 pts · 2y

As it appears, during buildup Ø is part of the double pivot with Rice and Z hugs the touchline.

MHPengwingz@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 2y (1 reply)

Lmao it's the Gabriel show

nuggsy@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 2y

I'll take it! Gabriel hattrick!

nuggsy@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 2y

Somewhat quiet but decent start

nuggsy@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 2y (2 replies)

Astrealix@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 2y

nuggsy@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 2y

Soo close to a 4th...

nuggsy@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 2y

nuggsy@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 2y

Astrealix@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 2y

COYG

SoupACabra@lemmy.wtf · 2 pts · 2y

Does Kayo get the assist

nuggsy@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 2y

Get in!!! :)

Astrealix@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 2y (1 reply)

feels like we've got zero threat outside the corners ngl but hey, we're two up so.

nuggsy@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 2y

That's been one of my frustrations. All this possession and control, but we have nothing in the final third

nuggsy@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 2y (1 reply)

What a through ball... could have been an own goal. Sheesh.....

nuggsy@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 2y

More of that please

nuggsy@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 2y

Love me some half time Wrightey

nuggsy@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 2y (4 replies)

Should we make some changes to keep players fresh?

nuggsy@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 2y (2 replies)

I want ESR to do so well at Arsenal

But, I don't know if he'll stay

raumdeuter@arsenalfc.social · 2 pts · 2y (1 reply)

I just want him to get a run to show what he can do - in this system and in general. I just hope he stays healthy

nuggsy@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 2y

I couldn't agree more. Injuries have certainly derailed him pushing through

nuggsy@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 2y

There we are :)

nuggsy@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 2y

I like that we retain possession, but a lot of the time we don't feel dangerous

Astrealix@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 2y

TROSSARD

Astrealix@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 2y (4 replies)

Hoping everyone's staying warm by the way, cuz jeez it's cold, and I'm not even gone outside

Astrealix@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 2y (2 replies)

nuggsy@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 2y (1 reply)

I'll kindly swap, lol. I was enjoying the cold

Astrealix@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 2y

I enjoy the cold, just not this cold. I'm from Hong Kong ffs, what is this negative 8 degrees nonsense

nuggsy@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 2y

Solid effort. I don't mind some of that

Astrealix@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 2y

Imagine that goes in lol

nuggsy@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 2y

Ø could have taken a crack?

nuggsy@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 2y (2 replies)

2nd goal ruled as own goal :(

Astrealix@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 2y

was gabriel on twitter from arsenal no?

raumdeuter@arsenalfc.social · 1 pts · 2y

I didn't even see that it Emi Martinezed off Henderson's head

Astrealix@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 2y

Not half bad.

Astrealix@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 2y

nuggsy@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 2y

Please get Tross off at HT

Astrealix@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 2y

I forgot he was on the pitch.

Astrealix@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 2y (2 replies)

I just realised that's Dean Henderson in goal lmfao

raumdeuter@arsenalfc.social · 3 pts · 2y (1 reply)

we need to take advantage of that!

Astrealix@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 2y

I mean, he's pretty decent imo lol. Tbh not convinced he's worse than Onana but I guess I haven't seen him in a decent while.

nuggsy@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 2y

Get in :)

nuggsy@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 2y (1 reply)

nuggsy@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 2y

Wishful thinking, lol

Astrealix@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 2y (2 replies)

Trossard up front and Jesus on the wing it seems?

nuggsy@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 2y (1 reply)

Maybe rotating. I think I see him up the middle atm

Astrealix@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 2y

oh yeah i think you're right.

SoupACabra@lemmy.wtf · 1 pts · 2y (6 replies)

I'd rather play Emile on the wing

nuggsy@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 2y (5 replies)

Over Trossard?

SoupACabra@lemmy.wtf · 2 pts · 2y (2 replies)

Apologies

nuggsy@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 2y (1 reply)

raumdeuter@arsenalfc.social · 1 pts · 2y

SoupACabra@lemmy.wtf · 1 pts · 2y (1 reply)

Ye

nuggsy@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 2y

I feel he sometimes plays better coming on as a sub, but we wouldn't have seen that goal otherwise
