Haha the fucking state of them.

Enjoy it. Only thing you'll be lifting this season

What time is the open top parade for the southern twats.

We were the better team, Arsenal needed a scrappy late undeserved goal to get anything from it. This is all that matters to me in this game.

I thought Arsenal would be a big threat this year with their acquisitions. Today has put those concerns to rest, they are literally no different to last year.

Enjoyed the showing from Kova.

Palmer showing what he did at the EDS level for fun and Phil looked great running through the middle.

Headlines will play out like they’ve won the league but an undercooked City looked comfortable for many parts of that game.

No injuries and more minutes prior to the start of the season. May be a slow start as we’ve seen in the past but keep the faith as usual blues

 

[SebastianBlue]

Pep probably told ours to miss a few so we would lose again, just to make it that much more likely we win the league. ;-)

 

[TinFoilHat]

What have we learned today...

Every fucker gonna play for penalties in cup ties against us. Our one weakness.

 

[M43 blue]

Only are 4th friendly game good to see kdb get some minutes in his legs palmer great goal roll on the Premier league

 

[CTID1988]

Arsenal are winning fuck all this year based on those celebrations alone haha. Alright performance by us all considered, we need to practice pens though!

 

[Eoiyflem]

I'm embarrassed for arsenal celebrating like that lolololololol

 

[Jamshopbridge]

Our players taking penalties is worse.

probably the most annoying way this could have gone. How our GKs are so dreadful at saving penaltie

 

[bluemystery]

What an absolutely PATHETIC celebration by Arteta when their goal (an own goal) went in. Thought the bloke won the champions league final.

Anyway, there's a stat about the winners of the community shield not winning the PL for a good number of years, so we move on.

 

[slick]

Ahh well. It is what it is.
Draw was probably the right overall result and Pens are a lottery.

Am I really arsed, not really.

 

[TinFoilHat]

Another good run out.

Season starts properly next week.

 

[OrigamiNinja]

Imagine celebrating winning the Community Shield like that, especially when you’re only in the game because we needed someone to play. Embarrassing.

 

[TueartsCossackSpray]

because they’re not very good keepers

Congrats, first fanny wipe comment of the thread. Our not very good keeper has won us the fkin lot!

 

[Sky Blue]

Wank to be honest - cant win them all

Behave you div.

 

[The Nature Boy]

Arsenal getting their silverware for the season done early, fair play.

 

[Lauz9888]

Good warm-up game. We looked ok considering the stage in the season, understandably lacking some sharpness.

Would have liked to have won it if only to stop them being so fucking unbearable.

 

[Plays By Sense Of Smell]

Well, a jousy win for them in the end...but that's the game.
We looked more or less ready for the season though, so that's a bonus on last year.

 

[FatedBlue77]

This fucking sucks. Just like Chelsea with the champions league in 2021 we’ve given arsenal fans something to live off. They’re gonna be even more unbearable than they were before.

The way we presented ourselves in this penalty shootout was a disgrace. Seriously.
