Southampton a tad unlucky to be losing this. Haven't done much to warrant a win but drew the only notable save of the match out of Sczez, and both the Arsenal goals have been through mistakes, not through Arse quality

Proper post-international performance.

But we won, and deserved to win.

Not unlucky at all. Boruc is dodgy and when a keeper makes that kind of error it's impossible to win. We had those kinds of mistakes from Gomes and it saps the strength of the entire team. Unless you equalise quickly those gaffes always cost you the match.

Agreed, our inability to score or even put their defense under more pressure is worrying.

Maybe I should rephrase that; Arsenal are lucky to be winning. Haven't really created much apart from those two early chances that hit the post (one that was probably a duff cross).

 

[Plasma]

Should get a yellow for that dive.

 

[Splatt]

Fuck, forgot all about Fantasy League, Ozil was left as my captain fuck fuck

 

[3Sixty]

We'll smash them at our place anyway.

 

[Hixx]

What? I never rip into Sunderland.... And I hope you stay up you fucker.

DONT POKE ME WHEN WE LOSE

 

[Salvadora]

Big win that, against a team who've taken points from both United and Liverpool.

On to Marseille.

 

[Judderman]

YEAHHHHH

 

[ashecitism]

not convincing, but a win is a win

 

[Broder Salsa]

DONT POKE ME WHEN WE LOSE

So when can we poke you, during the summer break?

Spoiler

pls dont ignore me hicky

 

[Barzul]

Come on West Ham.

 

[Lightning]

We'll smash them at our place anyway.

Hahahahahahahaha good luck trying!

DONT POKE ME WHEN WE LOSE

It was just a bit of fun although that was one of the worst send off decisions I've ever seen. Looking at the replays of it now and wtf.....

That's what the best teams do, win when they're flat.

You should fucking know.

[dc89]

The fact we're 9th with the best GD in the league is not acceptable.

 

[Wilbur]

Good win tho that, expected more from Southampton.

Spoiler

pls dont ignore me hicky

its too late i will never pass to you in fifa again

 

[Ushojax]

Very solid win for Arsenal, this is the kind of win that gets you the title. After getting a free goal like that all you have to do is keep the clean sheet.

 

[LabouredSubterfuge]

The fact we're 9th with the best GD in the league is not acceptable.

You should probably try being better.

please egg, i just said good win

:lol fuck, 9th. And still, #Moyeezus is ruining United. Pack of fucking spenks.

 

[3Sixty]

We were shit.

But in fairness, lost our best player before kick off, lost Shaw at HT, had players out of position.

Several players looked knackered due to playing for the shower of shite that is England & U21's

Will beat Chelsea next week though.

 

[Fergie]

Did Ozil play?

 

[Wilbur]

Did Ozil play?

No.

 

[90TilInfinity]

Very professional performance, I thought. Made sure not to give them much even if we weren't at our best.

Gibbs really turned it up in the 2nd half, and Szczesny was fantastic at dealing with Ward-Prowse's deliveries, which were my biggest worry going into today. He's having a great season. Arteta was playing much better before he came off too.

 

[Lightning]

Will beat Chelsea next week though.

Yes please. Much appreciated!

Did Ozil play?

Yes but like the rest of the team not very well. Boruc aside Southampton pressed our midfield very well, been a while since I've seen such a shit Arteta performance and a lot of it was Southampton pressure.

 

[Elchele]

ESPN showing a repeat of Hertha vs. Neverkusen instead of showing Dortmund vs. Bayern. I can't even

 

[doicare]

Wow Arsenal were lucky, they were the worst team over 90 minutes and only scored thanks to a goalkeeping gift and a dodgy penalty. They'll be dropping more points and lucky to still be top by the New Year.

 

[bone_and_sinew]

Buy a keeper, you're City, you can afford it. And stop sucking dick on the road.

I want to make love to this photograph:

Szczesny has been class this season.

He's been one of the best keepers in the league, and is a playa:

I've had two pints of Guinness and now I need a nap.

Joey can go in one of those DBZ time capsules and train for a few centuries whilst Super Saiyan Yann holds the fort.

Stuck a fiver on Arse, Leverk, and Mourinho's tennis ball head this morning. I'm a Joey O'Brien mistake away from £30.

 

[3Sixty]

Did Ozil play?

 

[Yurt]

This round's XI of dead (work in progress):

Boruc
Brown - Hughes
Allen

 

[90TilInfinity]

Yes but like the rest of the team not very well. Boruc aside Southampton pressed our midfield very well, been a while since I've seen such a shit Arteta performance and a lot of it was Southampton pressure.

He had a dodgy first half, but was impressive for 30 mins in the 2nd. Held it down in midfield very well before he was subbed. Hope his injury isn't serious.

 

[Clegg]

Pockets Ozil has visited:

Jones
Wanyama

 

[Salvadora]

merk'd by the BFG.

 

[dc89]

Yeah. It's as simple as that. I look FOURward to the day we're better.

Spoiler

agh that's not even funny

:lol fuck, 9th. And still, #Moyeezus is ruining United. Pack of fucking spenks.

The moment we sort our away form out you're all fucked. I sense another league double over your mob and that will propel us to the title.

 

[LegoArmo]

Do you like Wanyama 3Sixty? Worth the £12.5m?

pls

 

[wedward]

From now on is Ozil considered to be in someones pocket if he doesn't score/assist? He played well and set up Ramsey's beautiful chance. I think he is still adapting to the pace of the epl.

They're trolling or didn't watch the game.

I would genuinely be worried if they thought that.

 

[Hixx]

I am replaying MGS2

If only they fleshed out the Tanker section instead of it being a tutorial

Crikey I hate how that game ended up.

 

[Wilbur]

Hold on, what do you mean? He was quiet. Didn't do anything save the early Ramsey chance. You all cried every time Wanyama tackled him.

 

[Clegg]

Arsenal bros beginning to sound like United fans with Kagawa.

Slippery slope lads.

 

[Salvadora]

He was quiet, but calling Ozil invisible is becoming a meme at this point.

I would take the charge more seriously if I didn't know the posters using it.

 

[Hixx]

Sometimes I wish our derby could be like this.

Then I remember our atmosphere is quite unique in England.

Had a great pass to Theo that Theo fucked up. He looked dangerous in the box playing one-twos.

How does us crying because he got tackled have anything to do with his performance?

 

[Joel Was Right]

United fans would jump at the chance of having a "quiet" Ozil in their midfield, so its all good

 

[Yurt]

please refer to clegg

So it's:
Boruc
Brown - Hughes
Allen - Ozil

Bench: Mata
