Arsenal what is you doing bb

 

Why x2

 

I smell an 8-2 here

 

You do almost, almost feel a bit sorry for Arteta today. They could get pumped today and the pressure on him would be huge. But what can be expected with the amount of players they have out? The press will have a field day after this.

 

That is the softest yellow ever.

 

So that’s a foul but the one for their goal isn’t?

 

This is infuriating

 

This referee is making an incredibly hard match even harder.

 

LOL. Odegaard does well to win the ball back, gestures to his team mate to hold onto the ball to regain composure, and immediately flips his lid when said teammate immediately hits a lofted pass into row Z.

 

City have not been good and Arsenal have made a mess of this. Xhaka off

 

Xhaka bby what is u doing

 

Ahhhh for god sake.

 

Arsenal fans leaving already haha

 

It wasn’t a horrendous tackle but what on earth was Xhaka doing jumping in like that?? Always going to be given as a red. So stupid.

 

*10-0

 

I think making it 1/3rd in is fair. About the same time ratio I give a shit movie.

 

Going to be a bloodbath this

 

Never thought I'd agree with Martin Keown but he's right about the defending on that third goal. One pass and City were running forward 5v5. No adjustment from Arsenal playing with ten men.

 

Could be Arteta’s last game if it gets really ugly

 

Keown having a go at Arteta for making 5 changes today, as if he had a choice. Brain dead punditry.

 

I stand by the idea that Arsenal should have appointed Rafa when Wenger left.

 

I squirmed when he said that. He's fallen into the Arsenal TV mindset.

 

Totally. Arsenal fans will know better than anyone, there's legitimate criticisms of Arteta. But it feels like the press are sensing blood and pushing for the first sacking of the season.

 

I'm not watching the second half, I'm having to leave and do other things, and I think I'm thankful.
