Arsenal banter 3

10 Apr 2024 06:56:15
Wasn't at our best defensively in first half and we paid the price.
Showed great mentality in second half and I think a draw was a fair result even though imo it was a penalty.
The big games keep on coming
COYG❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️.

09 Apr 2024 22:00:16
Looked nervy at times but a great performance overall, how that wasnt a red for big nose Harry i don't know.

10 Apr 2024 07:35:02
My thoughts exactly. He knew Gabriel was there. The game still doesn't respect head injuries enough in my opinion.

09 Apr 2024 09:31:34
Big game tonight

I'm just hoping we don't loose and go to Munich still in the game.

09 Apr 2024 11:41:13
Hello Mal mate.
Sticking my neck out
2-1 us tonight
A score draw in Munich
COYG❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️.

09 Apr 2024 12:03:24
I think they will be overwhelmed and won’t be able to match us and we will win 3nil and lose 2.1 over there.

09 Apr 2024 12:14:42
Hey Billy mate, I would run around Tottenham with my big bamboo hanging out. If we got that result geezer.

09 Apr 2024 12:34:53
Tottenham
YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED🤣🤣🤣.

09 Apr 2024 13:00:46
I've never looked forward to a match as much as this one, can't wait! ⚽️ and not because of Mal's post lol.

09 Apr 2024 14:44:47
I have also gone with 3-0 tonight. Whilst we haven't been convincing in the CL, I think the occasion is ours to relish tonight. We are palying some beautiful football, they have no fans and aren't playing anything like their best. Big night ahead! COYG!

09 Apr 2024 14:52:12
I think the atmosphere inside the stadium tonight Sally is going to be absolutely bangin.
My youngest daughter and son in law are going and they are like a pair of kids on Christmas eve.

09 Apr 2024 17:28:16
Beware the threat of unwanted footballing traditions and irony comes in shape of Kane and Gnarby and all will be well.

Kanes record for spuds against us was horrible and the irony of a player we should never have let go of in the first place biting us on the bum again is to be wary of and deal with once and for all.

Tonight we will be visted by the 3 Ghosts of Football past, Bayern Munich, Harry Kane and Serge Gnarby and we need make sure they are the ones saying "Humbug" after 180 minutes.

{Ed025's Note - what the Dickens are you on about?.. :)

09 Apr 2024 18:13:05
Absolutely brilliant Ed025 👏, love it mate 😊😊😊

Our defence needs to make Scrounge before the Ghosts look like Philanthropist on steriods and our attack make Bayern Kane Gnarby the prizes giant turkeys in the QF shop window 👍👍👍👍.

09 Apr 2024 07:39:09
{Ed's Note - Ork has posted a new article entitled, The case for keeping Erik ten Hag at Manchester United

08 Apr 2024 17:09:50
"IMO our forwards and midfield players are much better players than those at Arsenal's. I'd stand by that even if we don't win the league this season. "

I read this on the Liverpool page and nearly choked on my coffee!

08 Apr 2024 18:06:50
To be fair Jim they are entitled to think that as many many fans of every club are unable to overcome their biases, if an opposing player goes down in their teams box it's always a clear and obvious dive to them and if one their players go down in the opposition box it's always a stonewall penalty every time, and both var and refs are always useless if they don't give it 😊.

08 Apr 2024 18:30:49
Made me laugh also. Robertson, vvd, konate, taa, allison (best keeper in the world? ) Other than a rapidly declining Salah, the only decent part of their team is their defense!

{Ed025's Note - i think they are a very good side myself SW, Alisson is the best keeper in the world mate imo and MacAllister is excellent, VVD and TAA are very good as well, in Nunez and Diaz they have 2 very dangerous forwards and thats without Salah, they have a few good youngsters as well so when everyone is fit they are a force to be reckoned with, just my view of course....just dont tell anyone i said that.. :)

08 Apr 2024 19:36:16
Ii agree Ed025, Liverpool and City like Arsenal are where they are because of the fantastic players they have and the excellent way their managers get the best out of those players on a consistent basis.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder but can be dramatically enhanced by the shirt those they are looking at are wearing and dramatically decreased if the shirt is just right 😊😊😊.

{Ed025's Note - absolutely G62.. :)

08 Apr 2024 23:11:28
A very good side, ed025, but stronger in defence imo. How'd your combined 11 look?

For me:

Allison

White (sorry, trent is clearly class but not at rb)
Saliba
Vvd
Robertson

Salah (maybe, but I suspect he's close to being finished at this level)
Odegaard
Rice
McAllister
Saka

Ed025 upfront: jesus needs an upgrade and I cannot choose a striker with finishing as poor as Nunez.

{Ed025's Note - i would not change much there SW, maybe Trent for White and as you say Salah may need replacing sooner than later, Nunez would be an impact sub but that does look a very strong side mate..

09 Apr 2024 13:04:38
SW. no place for Havertz? Mal is going to be p*ssed!

08 Apr 2024 10:29:45
Benny Blanco what were you doing? And why?

08 Apr 2024 11:03:52
What’s he done sally?

08 Apr 2024 13:30:41
Fell to the floor clutching his throat after a little push it seems, unless someone knows better. Perhaps the guy clattered him across his neck but it certainly didn't look like it. It seemed very theatrical and pretty embarrassing. If it was a dive I hope he got a rollicking from Arteta!

08 Apr 2024 13:31:44
I'm assuming going down like he was shot from a tiny touch, pretty embarrassing 😂.

08 Apr 2024 13:45:05
It was definitely over the top.

08 Apr 2024 14:16:22
Embarrassing wasn't the word Sally
Hopefully like you said Mikel had a word.

08 Apr 2024 16:29:46
I'm a big fan of Ben White but he should receive 1 match man imposed by Arsenal for embarrassing Arsenal Football Club in a public place followedby a 10 match ban for second offence, I'd feel exactly the same if it was Saka Saliba or Martinelli.

I couldn't care less about how other players represent or how much they embarrass their clubs, that's for their fans and club to accept or to deal with but I like to think we are far better than that as a football club.

08 Apr 2024 16:32:30
Everyone does it even jesus was rolling around on the floor at point and got up instantly when the ball got into the box. Its part of football, not nice to see but its there.

08 Apr 2024 17:06:38
I'm a big fan of White too 62, which is why I feel sad about this.
Hopefully when he sees the footage he won't try it again.

08 Apr 2024 18:34:36
I hope your right Sally, but 10/ 10 to you for bringing it up and not defending White simply because he is an Arsenal player, huge respect their Sally 👏👏👏👏.

{Ed025's Note - i second that G62..

08 Apr 2024 21:10:09
Of course footballers are human and make mistakes so perhaps I have been a little harsh. How brilliant has he been this year!

07 Apr 2024 22:18:09
8 game left, we are top and in our hands now but having said that we still have a mountain to climb and we have to maintain this wining streak.
Looking at both city and Liverpool fixtures, I don't know where they can drop more points. We still have the toughest games but by all means are doable.

08 Apr 2024 06:35:17
I knew liverpool would surrender their lead!
I suspect city will win their remaining games, only question now is whether we can do the same thing. seems a long shot but its exciting that there's even a chance!

08 Apr 2024 08:09:59
It pays not to over think and over analyse things, football is full of shocks and surprising results that no one sees coming probably more so than anyother sport. All we know for sure is that if we keep doing the right things then we give ourselves the very best chance of everything turning out morr than right for ourselves 👍.

08 Apr 2024 09:19:51
Hi Moe mate, I think we can do it. The key for me is we all have to play the toot.

08 Apr 2024 10:22:52
Spurs will very likely take points off one or more of the 3 of us, as much as we like to laugh at them they aren't a bad side and they are fighting for 4th place themselves.

It's going to a fun ride from now till the 19th of May that's for sure.

08 Apr 2024 11:23:19
Mal I think your right mate, the spuds hold the key.
Absolutely John mate it's going to be quite a ride. As a gentleman in his late sixties, I have not got much of me ol Barnet left, so if I am a Yul Bryner at the end of the season but with 1 or possibly 2 trophies I will be a very happy Baldy oldbill.

08 Apr 2024 13:51:59
You know what, no matter what the outcome is, this group of players have given an outstanding account of themselves. Well proud of everyone involved! It's been a great season with many of last season's mistakes put behind us.

#COYG.

08 Apr 2024 16:10:00
Absolutely agree Sharpie, we are currently star trekking across the Euroverse always moving forward with no hint of slipping into reverse. Its Football but not as we've known it for a very long time Jim. Engines set to thrust warp factor 5 please Mr Sharpe, to boldly go where no Arsenal team has ever gone before 🗼🌍🚀🪐🌟.

{Ed025's Note - at least you wont come 4th and prosper G62.. :)

08 Apr 2024 16:40:28
I love it Ed025 mate 😊👏👍.

07 Apr 2024 17:37:42
Never thought I'd say this

Get in United.

07 Apr 2024 21:38:52
Fantastic result. Didn't think utd had it in them.

08 Apr 2024 00:17:55
It wouldn't be MU without a completely brainless penalty in the last 10 minutes!

07 Apr 2024 17:34:31
That'll do Donkey, that'll do, VERY very nicely indeed 👌.

07 Apr 2024 17:27:07
It's back in our hands never doubted United 🤣🤣🤣.

07 Apr 2024 11:07:04
So, despite being busy yesterday, and missing the first half of the game, I ventured into the live chat because I didn't want Mal to get all bent out of shape with me. Hi Mal!

Not going to lie folks, but I feel, ever so slightly, that I might have a hand in our great performances. No need to thank me. Sometimes you got to do what's important for the greater good.

Hope everyone is having a fantastic weekend.

At the end of the season, no matter how it ends, RG is throwing a party on his yacht. Everyone is invited.

#COYG #yachtlife.

07 Apr 2024 11:44:57
Hi mate, much appreciated your had time ritual.

07 Apr 2024 17:28:51
Won't be much of a party it's only a 2 man dinghy and the padding pool it's mored in has a hole.

07 Apr 2024 22:12:46
No hold on RG, it's not like you talking down your fortune.
Party it is woohoooo
🤣🤣🤣.

08 Apr 2024 06:37:00
We've won every game that I didn't watch this season in all comps, only exception being the draw at the Etihad which I see as a win.
Anyway, I'm going to pull an ed001 and not risk watching another game live! You're welcome, all of you.
