Arsenal Thread - 2022/23

[Grassland Blue]

It was Dedryck Boyata at CB and we lost Tevez and Toure ti injury by half time. We lost 0-3. Don't remember a lad being stretchered off, but do remember (more than) a few Arsenal lads waving imaginary red cards, just to help the ref of course.

Yes. It was Dedryck.
We seemed to be bubbling nicely until that happened.
As Argyle posted, we can't be gloating until all our matches are done.

I really can't shake the feeling we're going to see an unprecedented collapse from them and we'll win the league by 10 points.

6 games left and in their current form I can see them losing to us, Brighton and Newcastle.

With Wolves, Forest and Chelsea the other 3, it's easy to imagine them dropping points in one of those after realising the title is gone.

Fine sentiment but 10 points? Optimist.
Ps This is not the caf.

I think we get 92 they get 82 (lose to City, Newcastle Brighton, get 2W1D from Chelsea, Wolves, Forest) is unlikely but not impossible.

92 for us is reasonable, but I’m thinking 90 for them.

Exactly, if Zinchenko did his job last night they wouldn’t have conceded the 2nd (harsh) or the 3rd

He called for the ball for the first one, too, from a stupid position. Not his fault that Ramsdale made such a weak pass, but Agent "Kevin" did his job on Friday.

You think an Arsenal side that’s got 3 points from their last 3 games is going to get 15 points from the last 6 games?!

Don’t be ridiculous, you signed Saka when he was 7 and like any academy player it’s a huge stroke of luck if they make it. You got Martinelli for about £6m due to his European family connections but you’ve signed plenty of wank players for big money, you can’t compare spunking £80m on Pepe for getting a transfer right.

£72M, and no one is saying it wasn't a monumental fuck up. I was replying to a comment that was having a fly dig about the signing of Pepe, with a tongue in cheek reply, there was no need to take it so serious.

It depends on whether you think they have imploded or it’s just a hiccup. I’m not sure they have imploded yet. Wednesday will tell us.

Wednesday is make or break. We win and they're toast. They win and they might get that belief back. I think a draw fucks them too

A draw makes things interesting because it will give them belief but it will keep things in our hands
