We should start censoring and delete all negative posts so that the players don't go on here and read them

QuincyAbeyie nothing wrong with negativity where it should be, or criticism where it's earned but I'm with @samthegooner here.

The unremitting negativity around this place and the general forum view that Arsenal are being run and managed by a bunch of clowns flies in the face of the progress we've made over the last five years. And it feels like there are many here who just refuse to see that progress.

It's quite disheartening.

Our ITK's out there in the wild are saying Kiwior is not with the team, not injured but Norgaard managed to get injured. Downman is with the squad. Onana also out injured, thats a shame. The back up they have plays like a second league players vs everyone, but turns into prime Cech against us.

RocktheCasbah I don't really find it disheartening. More amusing, especially when it hits fever pitch.

flobaba

RocktheCasbah it's just a few folks that are consistently pooh poohing. Maybe 4 or 5. A vocal minority. The rest of us are pretty upbeat and turned up!

Qwiss

It's our first game of the season. If you aren't excited and full of hope now what's the point?

I'm buzzing with excitement and nerves.

HomeSteak

The ITK's were right.

Qwiss

HomeSteak sexy XI. Only debates were around the full backs, the rest picks itself.

Meatwad

HomeSteak
damn that's some squad.

CPM

Big Vik starts.

lorddulaarsenal

One little sadness - Onana is out apparently

But the good news is Bayindir steps in

Segway

Brilliant team. Lets go!

lorddulaarsenal

Dowman not on the bench despite travelling with the squad

Atleast we’d have only been charged for a child’s ticket

Klaus

Qwiss I know Lewis-Skelly and Timber did really well last season but White and Calafiori have looked better to me in preseason. It feels like we've landed in the right choice, especially if we want more direct attacking play.

HomeSteak

Look at the keeper, that defense and middle. No excuses, we need to trash them

RocktheCasbah

HomeSteak and what sort of line up graphic is that? Fucking hell, no wonder they're in such a state!

TambourineMan

HomeSteak so, so average. we need to smash them.

Meatwad

HomeSteak
even the way they announce their lineup is stupid. we better beat the shit out of these idiots.

IBL

HomeSteak frikkin still wish we can smash them at their place by 6+ goals to lay the 8-2 defeat to rest, still annoys me to this day.

RocktheCasbah

Coombs haha

To be fair, having seen those lines ups if we don't win even I'll be like, "progress? What fucking progress!"

lorddulaarsenal

Wait a sec Casemiro still plays?

RowJimmy

lorddulaarsenal Wait a sec Casemiro still plays?

Not sure "plays" is the right word, but he's on the field. Also collects paycheck.

Doc

Ah.. good to look at the bench and think yeah a few of those players could make a difference coming on..

Hope Gyok has a massive game and gives him the belief that he belongs here

Bring Back Kerrea Gilbert

Interesting Ben starts over Jurrien. Happy that Cala is given a go from the start. Don't get injured please.
