Saka does so much work every game. Much deserved goal
I was yelling with frustration when Trossard lost the ball. But then Saka pops up to catch the deflection and put it right across the goal and in the net. Clever finish.
Calafiori is pure class.
Man, he’s impressed me so much. He’s literally just walked straight into the team
He’s a little slow for me, but his class is undeniable. Left back is all of a sudden our strongest position in terms of depth.
King Kai! Dumb guy in the bar a few weeks back still banging on about how we wasted 60 million
He doesn’t know shit, lol. He’s been one of our best signings, surely
Can’t watch this game, lunch plans at 11 :p
Enjoy your lunch!
Look how hard they’re working to rule it offside
We absolutely need to score again. They will hit us if we give them the chance.
FFS what was that shit?!
Pitiful defending!
Mournful goalkeeping!
Listless overall team play!
SET PIECE FC NO MORE (we definitely still are)
I mean the GK knowing how things work…
Very true, actually. I’m sure he’ll have told them all he knows.
Aaron caught a bit of the corners, he knows where they’ll go quite intimately
What a goal!
Martinelli!
Southampton have defended fairly well. I do think some of the decision making in the final third has been a little poor.
Starting lineup -
RAYA
PARTEY | SALIBA | GABRIEL | CALAFIORI
HAVERTZ | JORGINHO | RICE
SAKA | JESUS | STERLING
What the actual fuck? Tomiyasu, Nelli and Merino on the bench.
Tears in me eyes, Tomi is back
Oh hell I hope Raheem makes a statement today
My guess is Tomiyasu will be slowly brought back since his lengthy injury.
Most of the time our fullbacks drift into midfield, so my guess is that’s what will happen with Partey anyway.
So what exactly is Mikel cooking there with Partey there?
How is this being considered for offside? He’s clearly onside!
Any way to call off one for Arsenal ---- PGMOL, most likely
Unclench
Octovertz scores 😭😭😭
