With Spurs getting beat makes things so interesting.

BG, things will be interesting until the end of the season, anyone can beat anyone.

They did score an away goal, shame they don’t count double in the league though. 😏.

Steve - let’s discuss after today, I think we are the weakest of the 4 sides chasing 3rd and 4th spots.

I agree Banbury
Spurs are suffering from having so many players at the world cup for so long plus not strengthening their squad in the summer to compensate
Chelsea have a good squad but once again seem to have manager and players pulling in different directions.
United are recovering from the Mourinho effect
While we are still pretty much the same old Arsenal that has been just on the on outside of everything looking in for the same old reasons for a decade.
We haven't changed really only other clubs have, we were 4th best when there were 4 top teams now with Liverpool and Spurs coming back into the mix again in recent years we've dropped to 6th best team.
If Everton and Newcastle ever get there self's together the Europa league might become our new bridge to far.
We really do need to adapt and evolve rather than simply just continue with our out of date " we can out score anyone phyloshy " that's not worked after 15 y5ars and is highly unlikely to suddenly pay dividends.

BG, it doesn't change a lot after today, we can easily win and lose all the rest or we can lose today and win all the rest. I think the run in has a lot more twists and turns. Interestingly we only need 6 more points from the remaining games to beat last seasons total. i'm sure we will beat it, by how much is anyones guess.

Alright guys,
I'm not an arsenal fan but I love that guendozi you have think he could develop into a main player in arsenal team, what does everyone think of him obviously I don't watch him every week?
Also what's the general opinion of holding?

09 Mar 2019 10:43:12
Both brilliant players and crucial for the future development of our squad. Looking forward to watching them grow 👌🏻.

Hiya Miller. Holding was dropped straight into our first first team and although made a few mistakes, only down to experience and the team around him too. He's already grown a lot, very composed, and I'm already happy to play him in the first 11 knowing the risks, and he's no less accident prone than Mustafi!

Guendouzi is passionate and talented, but makes more mistakes atm (around getting caught on possession) but a real star in the making.

Hopefully both central to our future plans.

Cheers guys
I always wondered about holding because he seemed to be linked with loan moves away n was hoping he did t turn out to be another jenkinson or Bartley ( although I did like Bartley when he came on loan to rangers just not premier league quality )

Really like Holding but needs some good coaching and a role model. That concerns me a little at Arsenal as we can’t coach defending

Matteo - one for the future. Makes a lot of errors, gets caught out of position and not sure he really give Torriera the right partnership at present as we need a strong bad ass partner for him. Again concerned about the defensive coaching at AFC which is not good for Matteo. On a plus side - nice eye for a pass and plays with a lot of energy which I think a lot of fans like as they missed that energy. What we don’t need is a headless chicken at present and he can be a little like that as he develops. I like the kid but he shouldn’t be a regular at present as our midfield should be stronger.

{Ed's Note - Ed001 has posted a new article entitled, Review Of The Day 9th March 2019

What did it get 2 down votes for? I always like your reviews mate. Does seem a bit harsh on Chelsea if they are cleared after serving the ban they can hardly be handed the two transfer windows back, which might mean they lose hazard for free in a year, still couldn't happen to a nicer bunch! 😂 What happens if a player just walks out on their contract? Do they get sued? You don't see it happen much.

{Ed001's Note - it is bizarre the decision by FIFA. They have no leg to stand on at all legally doing that.

As for a player walking out, it depends on the circumstances. If they were not joining another team, then there is little real issue, but they would have a problem playing again as the previous club holds their registration and then it would get messy.}

Ahh so if he's just decided footballs not for him it's not a problem, seems a crazy decision though, especially if it's over a girlfriend!

{Ed001's Note - highly unusual for a player to just quit the game though, so I would expect more to come on this.}

09 Mar 2019 17:39:39
Definitely! put all the effort in your whole life. Make it, then throw it all away! His parents must be fuming they probably made sacrifices for him to him to make it.

{Ed001's Note - his loss at the end of the day. He will regret it.}
