  • Arsenal - Aston Villa, Today, In about 3 and a half hours.

I am hurting right now but I am proud of our performance. Very different to how I felt after the Man United match for example.

    Big Willie they were all poor but they weren't in their positions. Tactical mess.

      The biggest problem today was Partey. He is directly responsible for both goals with his lazy, stupid, pathetic excuse for defending.

      And Arteta is the idiot who keeps relying on someone who simply does not have the character required. There were other options.

      Qwiss the clear goal that was disallowed?

          Martinez you fucking mug.

            Tactics its weird. I really like how we are playing and feel the floodgates will open when we add genuine quality to the attack

                Gurgen you don't think it hit Havertz arm?

                    GooneriC — they brought on Duran and Bailey, both of whom I’d take over Sterling, and have also just signed Malden.

                      Gazza M WHY DIDNT KAMARA GET A RED FOR DELAYING THE RESTART?!?!?! YOU FUCKING CUNTS!!!!

                      feel like we're skirting this. kamara was on a yellow and kicked a stationary ball away further than rice did against Brighton, and nothing happened. piece of shit refs.

                        Gurgen I thought so too but I watched again a few times, and you can see the shadow of the ball over his forearm, just before it hits him there. still not a fan of how quick VAR were to rule on it though. didn't look clear cut on first glance at all

                            Literally looked like it hit his stomach. Wtf. Pundits saying so ckear but I can't see a handball.

                            Gurgen definitely off his hand. It was next to him but it hit his hand.

                            We shouldn't have to complain about that call. We were winning 2-0 with 20-30 minutes to go. I can't believe we didn't get all 3 points

                              Disastrous result and the embodiment of why we don't look like a title winning team. 2-0 up at home to a Villa that hasn't been all that and to throw it away it's simply not goodenough.

                              Also given we are told how dominant we are over opposition usually when it's goalless and we are trying to score but we have x amount of possession etc, you would think being 2-0 up like that should play into our hands. But really question that concept with an outcome like today. How dominant are we versus opposition choosing to play like that against us before we score.

                              So much not where it needs to be, I know Ode has come back from an injury and a new kid but he just isn't where we need him to be. He gets harsher analysts because we need him to do what Saka did when he was out and take the burden but he doesn't look right at them moment. Even the defence was off and yes we lost Saliba but 2-0 up they should be able to do a job

                              No, it didn't, The replay i saw was pretty clear that it his his arm.

                                The club deserve that result. It’s Jan 18th and we haven’t signed anyone. That’s on the board.
