I feel like he has held his own for the most part.

Yeah but you can see the pressure building up, Madueke can tell and he's trying to win a penalty off O'reilly

Starting to get a little bit nervy, feels like 1 mistake and they'll punish it. Just need to not feel the need to try and be clever or go back to our old style. Going direct is fine here. Continue as we are, stay tight don't try and force anything, go long if needed and don't give away any cheap set pieces. we will get more chances the longer this stays 1-0. We'll be in trouble if they get 1 back.

Absolutely. Dig in . Hit it long, clear it, if we have to .

O Reilly vs Madueke is an interesting battle.

 

[Blu1]

Our boys are working so hard

 

[TinFoilHat]

Need to keep it at 1-0 til the break. Get a second wind, and go out in the second half and score again.


Easy, this management lark.

Be funny if we win this with a defensive performance.

That will fuck some heads up.

Arteta would have planned to keep it tight and win it in the last 15mins or so because look who he has left out! He knows Rodri be knackered on the 60th min and the rest will feel it when they only player 2 days ago! Be shocked if we keep a clean sheet..

 

[Aba452]

When you think how much they've spent, to be playing for set pieces, diving to shame Tom Daley, and dead silence from the pet media. Embarrassing prats.

 

[super_city_si]

Fuck me. Theyve even got towels by the balls. Fucking pulis team

Hopefully you’ll be shocked

And that's been a problem for a long time. One defensive error is punished but we don't take advantage defensive errors by our opponents.

Been poor the last 10 or so, need to tighten up.

 

[pennblue]

What happened to the no towel rule?

 

[IcriedwhenTueartleft]

so many soft pens given these days, hence why everyone claims for everything in the box these days

 

[jimharri]

No shots from Arsenal yet.

Be funny if we win this with a defensive performance.

That will fuck some heads up.

"if"?

[urban genie]

arsenal are Pulis's stoke with better players

 

[Txiki Txiki Bang Bang]

O Reilly vs Madueke is an interesting battle.

His biggest challenge yet

 

[Blueknows]

What happened to the no towel rule?

Was thinking the same

 

[Blu1]

Cheating fookers these lot

Get up you soft ****
