Completely agree.
They didn’t pick Ramsdale, Zinchenko, Martinelli and Odergard. We didn’t pick, Ederson, Walker, Diaz, LaPorte, Cancello, Bernado, Phillips, Foden and Alvarez.
Of their 4, who gets in our first 11? Save for the bollox talked about Zinchenko in other threads, the simple answer is not one of them…….
On the other hand, imagine Arteta could pick from those 9 I’ve mentioned.…..

Plus White and Saliba.

With our squad we could have picked all of those players and then said we didn’t pick Lewis, Stones, Ake, de Bruyne, Rodri, Grealish and Mahrez… because we don’t have a strangest XI.

They do, and they shit out of picking it.

7800 Arsenal fans traveled all that way on a Friday night for a game that supposedly means nothing?

You keep telling yourselves that.

Before the match , this game was a massive psychological moment in the title race , because we won the match after the game the media are spouting it has no influence on the forthcoming league meetings with the Goons.
Two things , if the Goons had decent squad depth their six changes wouldnt have been an issue , where as we can pool eleven players from a twenty man squad and it makes little diffence , and secondly didnt Arteta throw on his big guns for the final few minutes and got absolutely nowhere.
We know how much the media want a change of title winner and preferably a red 'istree club , but when a clown like Dave Kidd from the Sun states a the end of his match report " But for the blessed Arteta even a rare defeat felt like a minor victory" the same reporter who was calling for Arteta to be sacked 12 months ago , pass the sick bag.

Great result.

Just can’t be playing Kev and Gundo in the same midfield though, it just leaves us with 3 slow midfielders in there.

Only part of that I agree with is that we need to move it quicker.....oh and thats with not a full strength Arsenal team and our first 11 on the pitch baring Ederson

Cancello.Walker.Alvarez Días.Bernie Foden didn't start either...so we weren't full strength

Referee a prick
Haaland penalised every time he challenged for a ball
Arteta a jumped up prick, spent half his time out of his box
Holding by name, Holding by nature
Commentators, oh it’s only an elbow!
Arsenal fans, full of it
Great finish by Ake
City win, into next round, god willed it!

silva makes such a difference.

I dunno if it looks different on the first tier, but the whole Silva wankathon winds me up. Thought we looked more threatened after he came on from my view and he gets so much more rope than anyone else.

It was good to see a line of stewards in front of the Arsenal fans. I hope their was no coins, pints of piss, spit or anything else thrown down on the City fans for a change. Well done to the club for being pro-active concerning that problem.

There were more empty seats in the Goons section than ours , if they sold all their tickets then their entitled fans must hold the hide and seek title for 2023. The irony of them chanting "is this a library" has got be the most self deprecating moments of the season , hardcore Goons fans , you have got to laugh.
Bunch of lightweights who take their ball home if they are not in the Champs league , have celebrated the top four like its a trophy and who hounded their best ever manager for years to be sacked ,f*cking surrender monkeys.
