Dowman is ridiculously good
lorddulaarsenal tiny bit more man chest and shoulders and he'll be ready to start.
lorddulaarsenal Not gonna happen with this psychopath 😂
Well, well, well. Just woke up (it's 3:57 am) and checked the score ...
Burnwinter Well, well, well. Just woke up (it's 3:57 am) and checked the score ...
Don't check the injury report.
Absolutely cruising in the last half hour - hopefully can be in this position more often and make some subs
Will help fitness in the long term
Happy with that - delighted for gyokeres
Tasty stuff. Delighted for Gyokeres.
Really down about Saka. Liverpool next, too.
tazmania Gyokeres plays with sleeves so much, what's up with that
They don't fit his massive guns
Great goals. Good game for youngsters to come in early and play with no fear. Great to see. Play a bit slow while advancing the ball for my liking but cannot complain with 5-0 😃
Only downside is the injuries to the cap and saka. Hopefully just niggles and they can be back for liverpool.
Martinelli not coming on seemed ominous
Seems he might go
Gunner89 I was thinking this too but wasn't sure what to make of it. Maybe he was on the bench because he felt something during warmup.
I hope he stays. I think there's a good opportunity for him to convert to a striker in this system instead, and we need one if Havertz knee is serious. Merino and Trossard feel like dubious backups to Gyökeres.
Looked like Saka pulled his left hamstring, so not the same injury at least.
Bring Back Kerrea Gilbert
How the fook has he got this power in his legs at 15, he'll have insane running power.
DiabyKungFu Yeah, too late ... bugger. Oh well, guess we'll be seeing a bit of the new guys then.
Speedster He's Kaka's illegitimate son, man. England better watch out because Brazil are going to lay claim on his boy.
Madueke was excellent today
lorddulaarsenal Particularly glad we signed him now with Saka's injury. Martinelli/Eze/Madueke or Eze/Nwaneri/Madueke are still pretty decent combos for Anfield.

On the right he looked quality - he will make us forget Saka's absence. Really not that concerned about Saka being out now, and he's faster as well.
Good win, I think we played much better without Odegaard. Madueke's performance was a positive surprise for me as I thought he would play more conservatively. Nwaneri was less convincing although he grew into the game.
swider Ethan lost the ball a bunch but we were so much more dangerous with him on the pitch. I think Ødegaard gets burdened too much with defensive responsibilities sometimes. At a two-bit fuckwit club like Leeds Arteta should just tell him to go out there and roll them over. It'll come naturally as the season goes on and we start behaving like prospective champions I reckon.
Exactly what we need against these teams even though I didn't think we looked great going forwards but we can improve that aspect and suss what we had to today. Just hoping the Saka injury isn't too bad if he's out I think it's very hard to see us doing what we want to for me.
daredevil
Would Madueke have made that run and finished like Saka? I have my doubts. Saka still doesn't look sharp but the X factor he had for that goal would be hard for Madueke to replicate, especially against the scousers.
