Match Thread | Arsenal vs. Man City (02/02/25)

[blueste41]

Of course we are, wtf!

Given our form and the table how can you be so sure top 5 is a given?

 

[simonr555]

I’ll get pelters, but I’m honestly done with Bernardo now.

 

[Brad mcfc]

Get Kev on.

It's not the 85th minute yet

 

[blueabdi]

This team is lacking confidence and looks fragile.

 

[youngbob]

Ordinarily, Nunes, Akanji, and Kovacic wouldn't be playing that much. Instead we're having to play them every week due to fitness problems and a lack of options generally. Just get top five this season and go again next year.

 

[Chak19]

Limp wrists for the third

Limp wrists all season, last season he saves that with his eyes closed, it's just not the same this season for whatever reason, losing Ederson at the worst possible moment, fucking injuries.

 

[BlueTG]

I know he might not be the answer, but McAtee must wonder what the fuck has to go on in front of him for a run in the team.

 

[Gordyola]

Foul on Kova then offside

 

[Haaland94]

I don't understand why Pep loves Akanji so much. The guy always has errors in him, solid for 80 minutes but never 90, always some cheap mistakes.

 

[skillman]

Rice was hurried up 3 times there on that free kick.

 

[bellsouth]

They are a team of disgraceful characters

 

[Nas_City]

Marmoush?? why

 

[Platt Lane veteran]

Remember when we’d take the piss at the Emirates? Now we look like frightened kittens.

 

[jollylescott]

They have capitalised on our dumb mistakes. It's all our fault.

 

[super_city_si]

Same as it's been for weeks.

When we're away from home we don't have the strength, mettle, or concentration in the dead centre of the pitch to sustain any kind of pressure in a game or get through a tough period.

The absolute defining trait of our teams under Pep is constantly having 11 lads who don't switch off, but all we've done this season really is switch off. Nunes, Akanji, and Kovacic (and Foden and Gvardiol) have been awful for it.

Boggled the mind we didn’t go long. We’ve got no mid but speedsters up top. So we decide to fuck around at the back.

 

[bluealf]

Yet we win champs league for that you twats.

Well, we've won it now, can we go back to the other style it was better to watch tbh

 

[Great Kompany]

As I said earlier - This is late Wenger Arsenal this team of ours
How do you not fuck a few of them before they do any celebration before players who won a treble.
Will foden always remain a lazy lass or will he show some pride that Zabaleta Kompany or Dsilva used to show all the time.

 

[SiMCFC]

Fuck off with this Arsenal are obsessed with us bollocks. We've been the best team in the country for a decade; every fucker is obsessed with us.

You fuck off.

Most of my colleagues are Arsenal fans, they are utterly obsessed with us for some reason.

 

[OntarioBlue]

Bernie you silly ****.

Yes, but that reaction from Odegaard - the cheating c..t should be embarrassed. He won’t though, it’s exactly what Arteta wants from his players.

 

[Brad mcfc]

Forgot Bernardo was playing
