Absolutely. Also Pep will fucking murder him for not passing to Kev at 1-0 for a tap in for 2-0. I'm right behind that goal and I was going fucking mad. All's well that ends well.

Ah, I don't know. The big fella normally buries 9 chances out of 10 he gets doesn't he. We can cut him a bit of slack since he's turned out to be not too bad.

Has anyone checked on Theo today

Theo Walcott declares Arsenal 'way BETTER' than Manchester City

Bottom club Southampton twice led by two goals - 2-0 and then 3-1 - but were pegged back within three dramatic minutes in the dying embers of the game as Arteta's side sought to keep their title bid on track.

It s an absolute pleasure to watch this team play, the performances over the last few weeks especially Liverpool, Munich and last night are some of the best I’ve seen. Pep is a genius!! I keep telling my son ( he’s 12 ) to enjoy this and he doesn’t know how lucky he is to witness this team play every week.

I thought Gundogan was excellent last night. Indeed when he went off and for the first time in the game, we seemed to lose at times a loss of control in midfield.
I think he will be a big loss if he leaves in the summer.

Correct that

I agree he's a class player indeed and would be very much missed.

But regards last night, is anyone remotely surprised when we take off someone in Gundog who as our captain, runs midfield and controls the game, with Mahrez!!??!?.... and then we lose control a bit? It was obvious that would happen.

He is always excellent.

A few comments on a rugby forum i use, they know...

3-0 with De Bruyne's second. Be nice to hear the gooners quiet after six months of hearing they'll be champions.

That's what Haaland also gives them this season. Superb hold-up play and a gorgeous finish by De Bruyne.

De Brunye is such a lovely footballer. So, so good. I saw him play live 4 years back and he's the best midfielder I've ever seen live.

I know Haaland is a magnificent centre forward but imagine playing with someone as good as KDB, how that interplay is so silky.

Class side

I think it's the Man City defence that amazes me. Arsenal didn't have a sniff until the end

As i have only watched the Arse three times this season i'm shocked they are top of the table.

I have been thinking exactly the same thing.

There are a few factors, but the main one I think is that other than us, the other 'top' teams have been bang average whereas they have undoubtedly improved this season.

Can't see them doing as well next season with CL games thrown into the mix.
