Match Thread | Arsenal vs. Man City (02/02/25)

[Gordyola]

Peter Bankes might well be wearing his Arsenal shirt

 

[Eoiyflem]

Grow the fuck up....it's the 1st minute

Fuck off, knob

 

[Micky Blue]

Because he's a generational talent, and he's irreplicable.

I completely agree, the balon d’or says it all.
But we don’t have any fucking cover.
I don’t think we expect another Rodri, but just someone in midfield who can run, pass and tackle would be nice.

 

[blueballs84]

Oh I see we are somehow slaughtering Nunes again, a player being played out of position and playing off scraps of minutes before that.
His rusty game intelligence is partly down to Pep's use of him. He'll never be the brightest bulb but you gotta work with that or get rid.

 

[Blu1]

Happily sacrifice Mahmoush or savi for Rico right now. This is pointless tactics. We can’t even get the ball to the wingers

We need another midfielder on with Kova & Bernie both light weight :-(

 

[01cravend]

We've not even been in the final third yet

 

[Great Kompany]

They have the strangest hate boner against us. Genuinely seems like they'd rather beat us than win a trophy

Who doesn't!

 

[jimharri]

We ain’t good enough that’s the truth.

That was obvious 3 months ago.

 

[Trevor Morley's Tache]

Cool.

The Bankes is letting the crowd ref the game.

Shithouse.

 

[vicblueman]

We still have time to buy DM

should of been a priority

 

[Beanhead]

That pass from Stones was as good as a pass to Arsenal

Yeah Akanji getting pelters but no defender wants that ball as their first touch.

 

[Bluemoonie92]

No outball at all, stones and akanji just happy to keep it

 

[69FACUPfinal]

This has been another poor start from us, we're not in this game at all so far and look like we're scared. Need to get going here blues

I thought scared too. Its not as if this lot are prine Dippers.

 

[shadygiz]

Fuck off, knob

chill out

 

[Ajm1985]

Not sure what we do all week. This screams of a team that doesn’t have a fucking clue

Screams of a team that has never played together which, in fairness, they haven't

 

[Mancini’s Pastilles]

Fucking pile of shit.

Huge spend needed in summer.

We spent 60 mill in January on 2 kid cbs when we could of used it to help our midfield. Baffling

 

[Halloween Jack]

Marmoush waving to the defenders to put one over the top, but of course being ignored in favour of a sidewys pass. It fucking annoys me.

 

[stan bowles]

Peter Bankes might well be wearing his Arsenal shirt

He's a Yes man.

 

[East Level 2]

Nunes is utter shite! Brain dead. He just headed a ball with no pressure into a dangerous place wtf

He's being played out of position, but some would argue anywhere on the pitch is out of position for him.
Genuine question: Has he ever looked decent against a top half team?

 

[OntarioBlue]

Absolute c…s trick by Timber trying to get Marmoush booked. That’s why I hate this Arsenal team under Arteta.
