Arsenal Home Match Thread

[murphy]

According to SKY we are on 99 PL wins.

 

Win this to bring up the ton!

[Ric Flair]

Harvey Barnes is going to have their fcukin kegs down

[Nicolo Barella]

Hopefully we can deal with these three centrebacks like Southampton and Sheffield Utd.

90 minutes of "There's only one Granit Xhaka" please

[Ric Flair]

Chilwell is at his best against teams that play a back 5, if Barnes and he can have the same quality link up as the other week then Ricardo has an easy nights work ahead of him as it'll be like the Alamo down the left.

All Leicester City players have been fantastic!

 

If I have to choose a significant player, for me Youri Tielemans is Leicester’s best player due to how much he plays an integral part in the squad.

I hope my wife doesn't see that Lineker/Wright half-and-half scarf on the BBC sport site - she might think about buying me one

Let's replicate the atmosphere of the Spurs game, the one where Hoddle reckoned we were so vocal we were influencing the refs decisions. Well we put up with that at Old Trafford, Anfield etc for years nice to have a turn ourselves.

Foxes bench: Ward, Justin, Morgan, Gray, Albrighton, Choudhury, Praet

 

Nice to see Choudhury back in for Nacho, defo good call for this game. 

Our bench looks so much better than there’s. can’t remember that happening before 👍

He had a poor game against Palace but let's hope today will be his day. Like vs Southampton

[fazzyfox]

Pouring with rain, evening kick off, live on TV......it couldn't happen again could it?.......nope, 2-1 City IF we keep 11 men on the pitch.

This has been my nagging based-on-nothing worry all week. Some dogshit refereeing and a sending off

Poppy season must be what it's like to live in America.

[Vacamion]

 

Right, I’m in the middle of nowhere on a weekend in the the countryside staying at a cottage.  

 

Just did an hour’s driving to find a pub with sky.  Failed.  One was closed, the other one under new management,  Both full of locals giving us a “The Slaughtered Lamb” vibe.  No football on. 

 

Have retreated back to our accommodation and on a shonky WiFi and intermittent 4g.

 

Good descriptions of what is going on in the game in here would be appreciated.  

 

Thanks in advance.

Any one got a link? Cheers

Arsenal dropping deep and offering no pressing at all. Interesting. CBs may need to adjust their patterns for passing as a result. 

[Sly]

I thought someone was injured when Kasper booted it out of play then.

9-0 if they don't.

[Izzy]

Strange start. Arsenal look quite happy to sit back and let us have the ball. 

[Sly]

Playing deep against us, is the best way to nullify Vardy.

[Sly]

I think this will be a close game. 

[Merging Cultures]

First game I've not watched this season.

I was home this week, but have to leave tonight, otherwise I'd have been there.

Please let us know how we are playing!

[Izzy]

That’s a pen
