I mean, did we even doo anything in the first half?? gosh...

Ode sprinting to close down a player at 6-0 is fantastic to see

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

He's put on quite a shift today

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

He's been everywhere. He drops deep to help out the defence and get the ball up field, he plays passes outside the box, closing down players... I freakin love it

MHPengwingz@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 2y

That's the Martin we know

sensiblepuffin@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 2y

The man is a fucking workhorse

TEQUILA

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

We really need to demoralize them and not take our foot off the gas

nuggsy@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 2y

Yep, keep the pressure on

gamblingblues@mastodon.online · 2 pts · 2y (1 reply)

@MHPengwingz @Astrealix 6-0 alright so far lol?

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

Woke up a bit late to us winning 4-0. Then while I'm trying to see how to watch the match, it goes to 6-0! Away! I don't know what the fuck is going on, but I love it!

Really annoyed Peacock isn't show this one.

MHPengwingz@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 2y (1 reply)

Is it on the Spanish network? That's one way to watch it.

ThePowerOfGeek@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 2y

That's a great idea. Alas, my youngest is already on the TV right now, and I don't want to get into a whole thing with him about that. But they have the live audio studio stream on the Arsenal app, so that is working for me.

Astrealix@lemmy.world · 5 pts · 2y

And they wonder why Rice left them...

Astrealix@lemmy.world · 5 pts · 2y

I've never seen people leave before halftime other than a Knicks game ๐Ÿ˜‚

raumdeuter@arsenalfc.social · 2 pts · 2y

lol or Heat

Gingerrific@lemmy.world · 5 pts · 2y

Holy shit, someone pinch me I must still be dreaming. What a first half.

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

Commentary: The only positive for West Ham is there's only 10 minutes to go

nuggsy@lemmy.world · 7 pts · 2y (1 reply)

I wouldn't say the only positive. It looks like they've also made it a little easier for everyone to get home earlier

MHPengwingz@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 2y

Lmao true that

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

hope referee doesn't do something stupid like 10 mins added time

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

Only +3

Pragmatism reigns

MHPengwingz@lemmy.world · 5 pts · 2y

The last twenty minutes is a routine training exercise

9point6@lemmy.world · 5 pts · 2y

I'm surprised there's any west ham fans left in the stands

This is a slapping

Wengerite@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 5 pts · 2y

DECLAN RICE 2 Assists btw

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

I think we can get 10 if this keeps up

@sensiblepuffin @Astrealix ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿป

Astrealix@lemmy.world · 5 pts · 2y

The crowd's barely making a noise when we're having a shot now. That's how much this game has been a wipeout.

MHPengwingz@lemmy.world · 5 pts · 2y

Show me the babies!!!!!

sensiblepuffin@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 2y (1 reply)

Passing starting to get sloppy, let's not throw all our good work away

raumdeuter@arsenalfc.social · 2 pts · 2y

FIVE!

Astrealix@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 2y

Always forget that Arteta's got a bit of Moyes in him.

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

Wow, the amount of people leaving is crazy....

Astrealix@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 2y (3 replies)

the first half hasn't even ended!!

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

It looks dire, but c'mon, at least stick around and get behind the players. Not really showing support with a half empty stadium at half time

Ian485@mastodon.world · 2 pts · 2y (1 reply)

@nuggsy @Astrealix totally agree. Second half might see some goals. Show what a true fan looks like.

nuggsy@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 2y

Absolutely, if the scoreline wasn't demoralising enough, then surely it wouldn't help to run out into a stadium of empty seats. If the away supporters were loud before, imagine them now...

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

Cedric and Baby!!

nuggsy@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 2y

Nice of West Ham to let us have two home games this season

Wengerite@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 4 pts · 2y (2 replies)

Anyone who boo's Saka is an orc. But they're also booing their former player so somehow they're worse.

Astrealix@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 2y

Their former player who captained them to a European trophy and also got them a hundred million.

nuggsy@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 2y

Why are they even booing him? Because Alvarez got himself a yellow? lol

Wengerite@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 4 pts · 2y (3 replies)

Kal Philips, the less said the better.

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

And yet he's still the best backup for Rice in the England team ๐Ÿ˜ญ

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

England really doesn't have good depth now that you mention that.

Astrealix@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 2y

They do, just in like, 3 spots. RB, GK, and the wings

Wengerite@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 4 pts · 2y

We took their 6, let's give them 6 back?

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

I'm quite happy he's growing into the system

Wengerite@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 4 pts · 2y

Checking offside

sensiblepuffin@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 2y

I wonder if we can get more unique goal scorers. El Neny banger is an easy one, ร˜degaard could do one, and Martinelli somehow has been kept off

In retrospect, I would love some goals from Eddie

MHPengwingz@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 2y

Oh Ethan๐Ÿ‘€

Wengerite@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 4 pts · 2y (2 replies)

MHPengwingz@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 2y

I think the lads know and are going for it

MHPengwingz@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 2y

Elneny banger please or are we saving that for Europe?

Astrealix@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 2y

I think it's a good idea!

nuggsy@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 2y

How would that work with a goal keeper? Outfield player steps in? lol

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

what was that trossard

raumdeuter@arsenalfc.social · 4 pts · 2y

ehh cut him some slack. Actually don't that's how we end up with 4-4 at Newcastle

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

Can still hear the Arsenal fans behind the Hammer fans, hahaha

Astrealix@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 2y

Always happens, our away ones are loud lol.

Wengerite@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 3 pts · 2y

WH players block shots even when they're down on the ground

nuggsy@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 2y

Saka wants one and we gets one :)

MHPengwingz@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 2y

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

I love Rice

sensiblepuffin@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 2y

Goal with Rice: 10/10.

Thank you for the suggestion.

Astrealix@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 2y

I forgot Philipps went to West Ham.

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

Rice is already getting booed lol

raumdeuter@arsenalfc.social · 4 pts · 2y (1 reply)

only one recourse - scorer a 30 yard banger then make a showing of not celebrating while the other players go crazy around him

raumdeuter@arsenalfc.social · 3 pts · 2y

@Astrealix not even Flappyhandski would've saved that

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

I like we're still hungry for goals and haven't sat back. I want this in the 2nd half too

Kiwior and Benny next and we'll have the whole backline

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

Getting the feeling that this was not the lineup that we were planning this game with.

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

I wonder if ESR was set to play and then injured his ankle in training

nuggsy@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 2y

So they threw in Trossard instead

Astrealix@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 2y

Havertz scores that :P unfortunate.

Wengerite@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 3 pts · 2y

Do they work on knee slides in training?

MHPengwingz@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 2y

That was quite a save

Wengerite@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 3 pts · 2y

Nice simulation tbh from Coufal

Wengerite@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 3 pts · 2y (1 reply)

DOGSO but in the box, yellow and pen is fine i think.

nuggsy@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 2y

Yeah, there was also a defender thundering in too

Astrealix@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 2y

another one!

Astrealix@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 2y

Glad we're keeping up the attack.

nuggsy@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 2y

Rice is unsurprisingly up for it today. Got something to prove

nuggsy@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 2y

Just saw the line up and our squad is looking a little thin at the moment, especially on the bench.

Astrealix@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 2y

still waiting on my end XD

nuggsy@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 2y

Get in!!!!

Astrealix@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 2y

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

Nelli

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

Can't tell โ€” is Nwaneri supposed to be RW then? Woulda expected Nketiah LW instead tbh.

nuggsy@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 2y

Looks like Nelson is on the left, Nwaneri on the right

nuggsy@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 2y

Martinelli, I think?

nuggsy@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 2y (4 replies)

Rice taking corners is unusual, right?

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

He's been doing that on the left side for a bit, not sure why. Right side is still Saka though.

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

I feel daft I've not been picking that up

Astrealix@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 2y (1 reply)

dw I only noticed like, last game or so I think, it's not that old.

raumdeuter@arsenalfc.social · 2 pts · 2y

think it came after a run of bad Martinelli corners

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

Saka did so well to keep that. Havertz with the potential rebound too

nuggsy@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 2y

That may have been Trossard, actually?

nuggsy@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 2y

Sloppy from Kiwior

Do you have them running towards each other or against? xD

Against, lol.
