This fucking ref
Tomi/Tierney at LB was the obvious play much earlier. Arteta might have been a touch complacent with a few key decision factors. Have not exploited Burn as much as we should have.
Would love it if we got a last minute winner here, would love it
Bullshit.
Clear handball
Turns his headaway but reckless movement of the hand!
We are not playing a football team. Pure cheats.
So clear, screw you VAR
Fucking bullshit refm clear handball. VAR ain't even checked it. Fuck everything.
How is that not a pen ffs
QuincyAbeyie seriously bullshit
What's concerning to me is thought of 12-15 teams replicating this Howe blueprint for the months ahead. Atwell, Madley and Newcastle can absolutely fuck off
KingslandBarge tough to replicate for other teams as they are a team of giants
KingslandBarge Not possible. This has been worked on for a year. This is the best defensive performance we’ve faced in the Mikel era. It was a Simeone type defense were 80% of effort is dedicated to disrupting the opponent’s efforts. Two very solid banks of four that rotates with the play to prevent any on-the-ball progression. And good use of triangles to close down players. It was elite defense.
Spurs would never be able to replicate this next week. We would break it down after 10 minutes.
Not the worst result - they are a tough team to beat and have been in form. Also should add to our urgency to get reinforcements in.
lorddulaarsenal If people still ain't convinced we need at least 2 signings they should be now.
Howe is a checkbook cheating hack. Looking jowly as fuck as well.
That was a disgusting game. PL at its worst.
Anybody giving Newcastle even an ounce of credit is a self-important sanctimonious prick.
We lacked sharpness and a special touch or two to finish our chances. Newcastle didn't come to play, easy as that.
BEIN commentators going in on Arteta for his in game antics. Calling him an embaressment, and that it will be limiting the likelihood we get penalites.
MistaT fuck them the clueless cunts.
Claudius lorddulaarsenal good points! I meant more the conniving shithousery and playing not to lose. Probably need to cool off and watch the highlights later.
Given the way the match was going, I'll take a draw with no sendings off. Newcastle didn't offer much threat but their midfield really did a good job slowing us down. Don't think there will be many teams able to do that to us as effectively.
Don Pacifico shouldn't have been allowed to. They've bought the right to fuck up anyone better than them and it's disgusting.
Not the worst result for us, knew it would be very tough to score against the best defence in the league. Pope was not even stretched much they just kept us at arm's length to pot shots everywhere.
Ref was torrid though
Clrnc when their whole team is allowed use their hands it's easy to have a good defense.
