Our 9-0 away record - could it go tonight?

[Collymore]

Sheff Utd abhorrent. Arsenal look like they can score at will.  0-5 at HT.

 

Let's hope not, but a right possibility. 

[Out Foxed]

nah

[RonnieTodger]

Before tonight, they’ve had:

 

(H) Newcastle 0-8
(A) Arsenal 0-5
(A) Burnley 0-5
(H) Aston Villa 0-5
(H) Brighton 0-5

 

 

[SecretPro]

Sheffield United are frankly disgusting. 

[Sunbury Fox]

Going to be close, I think. Suspect Arsenal will sub their main attacking players early, though. 

[Dahnsouff]

Yes, Martinelli scored two more over a piss and a slice of orange , so it’s on.

[Dan LCFC]

We may just live another day here. Wouldn't be shocked if they matched the 9.

[jayfox26]

The fact this shower have more points than Derby got, how fckin bad was that Derby side? 🤣 Absolutely embarrassing this lot. 

[DennisNedry]

Looks like we'll be OK.

[HarryDee8]

I thought it was gonna go after their 6th goal but luckily the arse made quite a few changes

[Spudulike]

Notice how the media (BBC) only refer to the record being 9 nil (Premier League) but never mention the away record of 0-9 (all time top flight record away win). 

[Craig]

They just weren't up to the standard of our mentality monsters

[trugerkem]

No was the answer

[don_danbury]

nah

[Fox92]

I see this post all time. 

 

Chill out. It's not happening. You know how hard it is to score 9 goals, especially away from home? That's why it's so rare.

 

Arsenal did what they did at West Ham other week and started to take their best players off. We didn't do that at Southampton and kept going for more.

It would have been the record if they still had Thomas.

Their left back in that game was far worse than Thomas. Saka went past him like he wasnt there.

There is a reason no team has scored 10 in a single PL game. I’m sure that Boxing Day set of fixtures 1963 was the last time a club scored 10 in a top flight game.

There have been some unbelievable teams and players since then and some absolute shockers too, but it’s almost impossible in a top flight game.

Our record will stand for a long, long time.

If only there was a PL 23/24 thread!

A couple of teams scored 10, strangely within a few weeks of each other ... in the late 1980's I think.

Without checking up ... I think Gillingham stuffed Chesterfield 10-0 in a Div 3 game, then a few weeks late Man City beat Huddersfield 10-1 in a Div 2 game.

No league team has scored 10 goals since then, I'm fairly sure.

Show what an amazing night it was.

He went past him whilst nonchalantly chewing gum and not feeling great (Saka was subbed at half time because he felt sick)
