>>152685520One bas to wonder if that's the real reason for him being dropped so often. I know Cala has been excellent this deason and Mykes has been shakey but still, knowing Arteta, it could be something that petty
I know Gyok has been exposed but please someone at least force him to do something
It's over no matter what. That City winner has won them the league.
Ah, no yellow card for kicking the ball away I see. That's interesting.
>>152685607what is wrong with you liver poo cucks? genuinely
EKITIKSHIT WHAT A GOAL
>kicking the ball away is no longer a card
drossard taking the piss
>>152685638Our wingers have been bullying their fullbacks all game so far and yet we're still 1-0 up. This will end disastrously at this rate
>>152685628Wonga's in charge of the rules now anonDo not forget UEFAlona's bullshit with RVP

How can an Arsenal player be booed at the Arsenal Stadium!?

>>152685713poor lad has no luck
quite an entertaining game so far I gotta sayArsenal still shite though
Gyok just called Saliba nibba
>0 yellows for brightonah yes love the PGMOL
lads I'm beginning to believe the haters are right about Gyok
>>152685713You have to assume the ball comes to you… no one even touched itHe’s so bad
declan's just phenomenal isnt he
>>152685744I love him so much
if i was gyok i'd punch saka
>selfisho saka
Good shit Gyokeres
>ball didn't go in after all thatWow...
WE CAN'T SCORE
>>>>>>>>>>>arsenal
fuck offff
WEW
the problem with arsenal is they want to pass it into the net
Jesus fucking Christ how can a group of players be this fucking woeful at scoring goals?
Why does gyok run (jog) to the far post away from the ball EVERY SINGLE TIME?It has to be arteta coaching him to do that. No striker would run away from the open space every single time like this
Should be red imo
A FUCKING YELLOW
SEND HIM OFF
>>152685816Check complete bitch
NO FUCKING WAY
>*checks shirt colour*>yep, that's a yellow
luv' Rice'ate Suckasimple as
rigged league
Should be a red
That’s a red anywhere else on the field me thinks
A heem like that is a red anywhere else on the pitch btw
>>152685838>>152685840Why. Wasn't a goal scoring opportunity. Lrn 2 football
Yeah we're conceding another last minute goal...
>>152685848reckless challenge nowhere near the balldoesn't have to be DOGSO
>>152685848I know that it not a red for last defender any more.I’m saying if that’s a regular player flying it at 200mph somewhere else on the field and getting nowhere near the ball it’s probably red
constant fouls = no yellowsreckless challenge = yellowthe bar is always higher for arsenalwill never forget kovacic getting away with 2 red card fouls
losers always whine about their best winners go home and fuck the prom queen
>>152685848Reckless as fuck, nowhere near the ball. Goalies get way too much protection and he's not even anywhere near the box.
AHHHHHHHHJUST SCORE
>>152685893Don't let those stats fool you, lads.4 out of those 5 shots-on-target came from a single play right at the end of the 1st half!
i believe arteta turned into a haramball monster because of this criminal officiatingthe only way to win when it's rigged is to control everything like mourinho did at chelsea
>knee high>last man>didn't get the ball
>>152685946THAT MAKES IT WORSE
just seen the highlights of city's winner and gibbs white gets suplexed in the build up lmao it's too much man
Just randomly remembered Balogun
>Arsenal conceded 0.00(xG) in the first half against BrightonYeah we all know how this will end, it's too obvious.
>>152685961>>152685949>>152685886
>>152685884For me it's the "kicking the ball after the whistle = no yellows".Also, if you want to remember someone the Kovacić debacle, do it for the ref of that game.
>>152685967he's shockingdid well to sell him
>>152685949criminal officiating caused him to choke an 8 point lead in April '23?
>>152685961It's okay because "it's obviously not an apt goalscoring opportunity because the ball was obviously going wide".
This new captcha is taking the piss.
What the fuck is wrong with Saka? Dude has ignored Gyokeres every game since he came to Arsenal. Did Big Dick Vik fuck Sakas girlfriend or something? I mean its getting comical at this point and Arteta should fucking adress it. Even the commentators mentioned it.
>>152686014You mean he didn't give Vik any pity penalties today?
>>152686014gyok runs far post away from saka every time he has the ballnot sure how they’re supposed to link up
All this Welbz talk is making me nervous
>>152686039he's been open in a position for a cut back multiple times this match
>>152686018He hasnt given Vik any penalties nor any passes. Hes good at dribbling and shooting it into the stands.
Hey. Brighton got a shot on target!
>>152686049I only remember one where saka put it across the goal line while gyok was on the penalty spot
YELLOW CARD FOR BRIGHTONI REPEATAN ACTUAL FUCKING CARD FOR BRIGHTON
>>152686042Because the D. Welbz 90+4' is inevitable
why do Brighton have so many dutchpipo. too many and you enter the fraud zone

Wait a second, how come Owen Goal doesn't count towards shots on target stat, for neither of the teams?Surely, the ball must've been going "on target" in order to make it inside the net, innit.

HOW THE FUCK ARE WE MISSING CHANCES LIKE THIS STILL
I can't believe he actually missed that

bro this fucking game man
>shitbriel>shartinelli
>>152686531No wonder it's only a fucking loan, there was nothing to sell
The last 3-4 games the finishing has been as bad as I remember for the last 20+ years
#WengerIN
did Arteta and Dat Guy play together?
trying to kill off the game by holding the ball in the corner, at home against brightonpathetic
that tackle from Hincapié was beautiful
>>152686548Who's a not retired geriatric >we could actually bring in?
>timewasting against brighton at home
this kind of timewasting is rather unbecoming

>Ødegaard>Passing backwards when a counter is presenting itselfName a more iconic duo other than Ødegaard and taking a minimum of 4 touches before doing anything and Ødegaard and being painfully single-footed
That was a hilarious few mins randomly wtf. Based hincapie
heart attack FC
>>152686601Does the loan have an option or obligation? Should really keep him.
ödegaard is still instinctively going backwards
It genuinely looks and feels like they simply don't want a third goal
Saka is so fucking pathetic.
D U N K
Saka is washed
>pookayo caca
Lmao Saka looked like a pensioner trying to trot there, he's so done.
>>152686623He’s been gassed for the past 20 minutes at least
Okay, fuck all this Starboy crap. Saka needs to be benched for the foreseeable future the way he's been playing for the last however many fucking months
The quality of players is so shit compared to 10-15 years ago
every one of the last 4 games should have ended 3/4-1 to Arsenal but there isn’t a single player apart from an in form Trossard who can finish said chances. Everyone else either can’t hit a barn door or shoots straight at the keeper.
>retards turning on saka when arteta doesn't take him off and plays him 90 minutes every game
Pathetic FC
Ngl I'm kinda sick of this small, mid-table, relegation battling, time wasting, minimalist, wasteful, cone-placing mentality.
>>152686655he was shit today
Thanks for the 3 points but it's time to go.
>>152686655Dropping him is a great way to not have him play 90 mins every game
Good match Gooners
OdeGOD is BACK baby!
A win's a winIt's been a while since we played like an actual team
grinding out a win is a sign of champions la
>Owen Goal MOTM
What a disgusting game
>>152686666>today
Own goal bros we've been eating good.
god bless OG
3 points are 3 points, top of the table is top of the table but he needs to fuck off
WTF was that? Feeling like 22/23 all over again.
ODEGOAT IS BACK
Thanks for the memories Mikel but it's time to say goodbye
Job done but once again we like to make it hard for ourselves. No damage done again thankfully
>>152686702thought marino was decent today, a bit harsh on him

>>152686675improvement on last year
>Win nothing out>win just Carabao or FA cup outI really can't pinpoint where I would want him in. Is a prem enough? Have a feeling they wouldn't even sack him if they win fuck all again.
>>152686717Brother please
>>152686709mental damage, bro
>>152686666>>152686668I dont disagree, his finishing has been poor lately, but he still got an assist. Look at the last few games and tell me how many we lose/drop points in if we dont play saka. He's got better output than most of our forwards (low bar) even when hes playing shit, so we still need him, but it doesn't mean he needs to be playing the full 90s twice a week.
>>152686717Declan is best boy
>wet spamThey could very well finally get relegated.
>>152686717rice was motm thoughbeit
>>152686732Thankfully so far we have been turning those annoying draws from last season into wins, somehow. 14 draws was unacceptable.
>>152686732
>raya will still not start for asspain in the world cup
team is mentally fucked when it comes to finishing and the backline is not in good form, half these goals are through divine providence but they're still grinding out wins.if most of the problems get fixed before the luck runs out they're still getting 90 points, villa can't reach that. city easily could though.
>>152686732Wow we did absolutely terribly during the venue season
>>152686717ThisSaka's just on his slump and he still remains to be a big threat as shown as how teams fortify the fuck out of their left side
>>152686812Nice rare flag.
>>152686768yeah, the draws against mid-table teams were killing >us. I'm happy they're closing out games now.>>152686812have sex.
>>152686812Epstein is kind of has a point here tbqh
Honestly, with Cala out and Rice at RB, I feared the worst. But it's depressing how >we can flip from looking totally assured to total bottle jobs.
I reckon Chelsea beat Viller 2-2
Feels like we're still missing that one CLUTCH player. The kind of player that buries the chances Martinelli and Saka didn't convert late on to make the game comfortable again.
At this rate OG is going to end up scoring more goals than Gyokeres.
>>152686869Handicrapie is a bit of a liability though.
The team will play much better when The King is back.
>>152686904Thought he was alright (stupid yellow for time wasting aside). The backups can't all be elite, so got to be realistic with what we can expect.
>>152686889>1.5 billion spent>STILL missing that one clutch player
It looked like Saka could do anything he wanted out there today because he is so strong and techically gifted. To get so little done becaue he made the wrong decision time and time again is extremely frustrating.He should have had 2 assists because of Martinelli's miss but I think he should have had at least 10 based on the amount of times he got in great positions to make something happen.
>>152686921for me its nicole holliday

>>152687066That black shirt was sexo.
>>152687026Hard for him to show his worth when half the squad (Saka in particular) seemingly has a fucking blood feud with him

>>152687157could be anybodyif you watch them they're as bad as arsenal

You’ve got to feel a bit for Gyokeres haven’t you
>>152687206How the fuck are you going to say something should have never happened but then also say yeah very happy with the performance?
>>152687325lol nodid to sporting what isak did to newcastle and now lookoutright ignored despite being the apparent big name striker signing that arse have been desperate for years
>>152687157i watched the not'am game and honestly they are about as jammy as >we are

>>152687457Agree, those games and the Sunderland game haunt me
>go to buy some groceries>usual somali football guy working there>we make the usual small talk>you won 2-1 today>what?Mfw completely forgot we played today
>>152687463yes they did
>>152687457Let’s be honest. Arsenal are more fraudulent than both those clubs at the moment. Getting by with pens and OGs is absolutely pathetic
>>152687580We cruised through the first half then they ramped up the pressure in the second halfI'm just glad OdeGOAT is back on form
Who wants to play a fun game of guess the run with Gyok?Which ELITE run did Gyokeres make after a beautiful ball from Odegaard to play saka into space with time?Was it: Red line: Gyok is in front of his defender and bursts to the back post to tap in the ball played across the goal by Saka.Yellow line: Gyok continues his run and beats his man, cuts across the back line in front of Brighton's CB and taps in the weighted ball Saka played around the LB.Green line: Gyok fakes the run inside and nestles into the open space for a first time strike off of the pass Saka cuts back across the box.
>>152687622Doesn’t matter what run he makes as Saka doesn’t pass to him. I’m convinced Odegaard and Saka are purposefully not passing to Gyok
>>152687622>>152687644Nope! The answer is actually none of the above!He just continues jogging in a straight line behind the back post while hugging the CB (that he already beat), forcing Saka to cut inside and sky a contested shot over the bar!Thanks for playing!
>Arsenal actually managed to lose to that mid Villa side AGAINmakes me more mad than the Liverpool loss or shitty draws.
>>152687622What did starboy Bukrappo Shitta do here? Because any decent winger would be sliding the ball between Lewis Dunk and the penalty spot without taking another touch
>>152687684>Saka apologistNo thanks >>152687702This
>>152687718>>152687702No I just hate gyokeres. Can't make a pass to a run that isn't there. Would you like to play again?
>>152687377Sporting lied to Victor.
>nah I just have to defend starboy at every turnArteta/Saka/Odegaard apologists will be forced out after the season falls apart
Haven't you got any sense of shame that Arsenal are winning in this way? When all the other teams at the top are playing stylish football, and you are not even trying to play football?
>>152687736ooh I think know this one! Bukrappo Shitta cuts inside and blasts a shot off the defenders knees while Drossard waves his arms about in frustration?
>>152687759>>152687759You get half a point! But we were looking for: Gyok doesnt make a run or check, he back peddles into a position where he can never, ever hit the ball first time
>>152687736Holy obsession. We get it, you hate Saka.
Chelsea vs Aston Villa might aswell be Chelsea vs Wolves. Villa look dire, Emery is just a victim merchant
>>152687622d) saka isnt actually in a position to pass bc he holds up the play given odes pass was actually weak, however, he misses the entire goal from 10 yards, elite pro football player starunc
>>152687790as I was making these I actually did learn to hate saka tooi kneel, saka haters
>villa having an off day preparing for the final on tuesdaytypical
>designated penalty taker >give the pen to Gyoko for some confidence boost Some dumb theories dont hold water.
>>152687825>2.92 MB PNG>designated penalty takerDidn't Arteta say Gyokeres would be the designated penalty taker though? I remember a report or article or tweet about it early in the season.
>>152687684>he should run offsidegyok got closed down by the time bukrappo got around to playing football
>>152687865We get so few it literally doesnt matter.
>>152687909That I can agree with but I'm just saying. >Our striker should be taking those. I don't think there's a real feud between them either, obviously. I think Saka is just in a rut.
>>152687781>bukrappo fucks up againyeah the cf holds up for a cutback, i think gyok think bukrapper can actually use his right foot. lets not forget his brilliant 3 yard miss vs psg
>>152687940>I think Saka is just in a rut.hes just not particularly good, he has 8 open play goals in the last 2 seasons
>amerisharts talking about footy tactics
>>152687965he also gets double or triple teamed every time he gets the ball passed his waynot saying thats the ONLY reason but its definitely part of it
>>152687965He was excellent but then got played for 4 billion hours
the best >we can hope is a draw between villa and chelshit
>>152687971He let Lewis Dunk catch him in a race at the end of the game because he has no killer instinct,taking loads of little touches instead of touching it out front and sprinting
saka needs like a month on the bench to be re taught footy again, he's been shit lately.noni is on a better form i believe, he def should've gotten some minutes today.
>>152688003he looked dead from the 50th minute on though
>>152687969im european lolek, prolly most usa flags are.
>>152688006Saka played 20 or 30 minutes against Crystal Palace.
>>152687969>>152688022french citizen that played (badly) in german 3rd division pretty sure i saw this polish guy clean the kit room
>>152687622Gyökeres can do whatever fucking run you want Igbo Starboi isnt passing him, ever. They must dislike eachother on a personal level because Saka just ignores him game after game after game. Yes Gyökeres is not technical and he cant dribble past defenders so theres no point in passing those balls infront of the defenders, but hes at least once or a couple of times standing unmarked in the penalty area when Saka cuts in from the right and Starboi just ignores him and shoots the ball into the stands.
Mark of champions
>b-but I'm actually european!youtu.be/nLNgHs_LwFA
>>152688063i think they all hate him
>>152688063He kinda hides behind defenders. There was a pass in the box for him and he just stood behind the defender hoping something will happen. Jesus came on and was better at keeping the ball in the box.
>>152688084Just for you because you’re my special little guy
>>152688095>>152688063i blame arteta

>>152688095Its most obvious with Saka. The others do pass transition balls once every blue moon. He got one from Saliba last game, one long ball from Ödegård this game, one from Calafiori months ago, one from Eze. The difference is Saka have the opportunity to pass him 2-4 times every game, where he is NOT hidden behind a defender but rather standing unmarked but Bukayo Sucka simply wont fucking pass it. What we see from Saka and his striker is not normal interaction between a RW and a #9.
>>152688215I think gyok genuinely makes horrible runs but I’m willing to accept it’s due to arteta’s preference to play wide and not cross the ballGyok sits on their cb to pull the back line deeper to create space at the top of the box while wingers go straight down the line at the full backs. It’s just fucking stupid and doesn’t work. I’d prefer to see Gyok make runs behind like HE FUCKING DID IN PORTUGAL AND SCORED A MILLION GOALS DOINGI HATE ARTETA I HATE HIM
You are overthinking it lads, they're all desperate for goals and afraid of bottling AGAIN so they drop spaghetti every time they're in the box
>>152688286Or they have no idea what to do around the box because their coach only likes playing defense and buying defenders and practicing set piece plays so defenders can score
>>152688286>they're all desperate for goalsbecause THEY'RE ALL SHIT
>RentboysThey're simply the better team
if they don't put at least 3 past villa in the first half it's gonna go the same way it went with chelshit
>chelseaThe top 3 keep marching on then. Nobody blink.
>>152688286>ode lob to gyok i think even ode was done with saka then
>>152688373>Top 2FTFY
>>152688411They've got 11 wins in a row, they deserve some credit. Obviously City will finish above them but still
>>152688265He does runs behind but never gets a pass. But Arsenal rarely plays in a way that suits him (transition, passes behind) but rather slow low risk horseshoe passing against parked buses. Hes the completely wrong striker for that kind of play as it requires lots of technical ability to break through the tiny gaps in the parked bus, or being a dominant aerial/target player like Giroud/Zlatan.I have no clue why Arteta decided to buy a striker whos good in transition, mediocre in the air and has poor technique and then play in ways which demand technique and aerial ability.
Based Emery. Reminder that Farteta's only trophy came with his team.
>>152688367Putting 3 past ANY league side is looking like it would take a genuine miracle and you want >us to put 3 past fucking Villa in 45 minutes? Lmao
tuesday's going to be grim as fuck
>>152688528do yourselves and hearts a favor and just watch the highlights
>>152688519THIS
>>152688528at least it gets easier after that
>>152688498We're simply keeping the top spot warm for the real title race
>>152688505Arteta doesn’t want the team to cross though we see that aversion constantly unless it’s the end of a tie game or something. This game today was as wide open as we’ll ever get and Gyok got 2 balls over the top/through One should’ve been a goal and the other should’ve had their goalie red cardedIdk why we don’t do it more
>>152688557Does it?
>>152688558Uh huh. And yet here you are at 4AM.
>>152688505>I have no clue why Arteta decided to buy a striker whos good in transition, mediocre in the air and has poor technique and then play in ways which demand technique and aerial ability.Different option for different games. Obviously now Jesus is building up fitness and Havertz is still injured. Gyoko will be best against Poonited and Lpoo when they play high line and Havertz will be better against Spurs when they defend for their lives with 11 men behind the ball.
>>152688528I'd reckon the Emirates is gonna be empty after the 3rd goal
uhhhhh...arsewogsistaz...
>>152688528Best we can honestly hope for is a draw. Really, really needed Villa to lose that fucking game just now to knock the belief out of them a bit.
>>152687971>he also gets double or triple teamed every timeWhich is why Gyökeres makes the run to the far post, as he did today, to free space for Saka. Only problem was Saka rarely did anything threatening with the created space.
>>152688286This is probably the truth.
>>152688360
>>152688505I don't think the tactic you describe fit Declan Rice either but he is fantastic in more open games. The same is probably true for Gyökeres.
>>152688831idk if that makes sense. they seem to just let gyok stand directly on one of the CBs and send a midfielder to help their LB with saka. if gyok made some runs across the back line that would free up the penalty spot/top of the box though
>>152688505>I have no clue why Arteta decided to buyTbf didn't he want Sesko more than anyone else?
Gonna lose on Tuesday AGAIN because Chelsea suffered the same fate >we did at Villa Park and will at home too.
>>152690062villa are a fraudulent team, and im not sour grapes. its just true
>>152690159true but when you create ton of chances and can’t finish for shit you deserve to lose.
>>152690231also true
>>152688528I actually think we’ll pump them, these are the games Sharteta lives for
a win is a win simple as
>SPACEEVIKTOR GYOKERES
>there exists a non-negligible possibility Emery wins the league this seasonAbsolutely terrifying banter potential
Is it possible for a team to play like they're about to crash and burn until the end of the season and end up winning everything?
>>152692139as in psg last season or?
>>152692104It's the only way for Arteta to get sacked.
good ebening, bitchesget (your anus) ready for another round
Finally, gabriel is back
>>152692139>Is it possible for a team to play like they're about to crash and burn until the end of the seasonYou’re damn right and that’s what they are gonna do
>>152688686>this is supposed to be bad Defenses are in panic mode.
A Win is a WinWin is a Win
