Coombs not disputing this btw, just glad to see it. I expected it this season but there was a nagging doubt in my head that he wouldn't.
Nelson and Smith Rowe showing too much eagerness. Nelson always shooting and Smith Rowe over hitting passes.
daredevil yeah, both played with the frantic energy of two players desperate to impress. Still think they did well though
Perfect start to rekindle our love affair with the CL
USArsenal you mean our toxic love affair... 😉
Pepe LeFrits the stutters of finally getting minutes. They'll need more minutes
What a return to Champions League!
Such an enjoyable game.
naz In a week against Brentford in the cup. Really happy with the result and the subs! Well done team and manager! 🤩
That's was perfect. Sublime football. Saka back on song. Good run out for the squaddies. Jesus back to his best. Tross and Ode just doing what they do. Clean sheet.
We’ve upped a level this season. Just think how good we’ll be after a few more key signings. Europe’s top tier is our destination
Raya is more calming than a Radox bath
2 games in a row where the opposition didn't have a sniff of goal too.
Qwiss David Raya exudes calmness
Qwiss as it fucking should be when you have three Van Dijks back there.
Clrnc And some here are worried about Ramsdale.
Raya is the real deal.
Thought today was Kai’s best game but still only 6.5/10. Still a bit passive/nervy but grew in the 2nd half, some lovely touches.
Really liked the Nelson Smith-Rowe combos.
Clrnc I don't think Ramsdale concedes in either game if he plays too. Raya will probably play against Spurs and probably won't have such an easy game. Excited to see how he does.
Think how good we’ll be when Elneny returns
Tbh, Gabriel has also been back, Partey hasn't been at RB etc. It's not all just down to Raya. He's been good though. Done everything that's been asked of him. Think he should keep his place in the starting XI for now.

They’ll come on more in the league too when you have CL games midweek. Then the more they play the more confidence Arteta has to bring them on or start them. It will get better for them.
Thought Kai had a 7.5 or 8/10 game tbh.
Pepe LeFrits
That chance he had when he blew it over is a minus mark. Needs to start scoring these easy chances.
Very interesting who starts between him and Vieria on Sun. I may actually give it to the German because of his physicality which you need in a NLD. He can’t let us down though.
goon I hope so 😊 the season is long and the squad is needed!
