Hooper wants them to win I swear, that was not their throw lol
The Smith looks happy
Not Arteta sprinting into the dressing room. Urgent tactical changes, or a man who needs to shit?
Warming up to play in the 2nd half? ;)
ONE NIL TO THE ARSENAL
0.5 xG from all that in the first half
Can we just keep doing that? Eventually the powers that be will have to go on a smoke break or something and we'll sneak one in
Agent Turner lmaooo
I know he didn't get it on target but god it's good to see ESRs shooting instinct up there
HOLY SHIT THAT WENT IN??
YOU MISS 100% OF THE SHOTS YOU DON'T TAKE!!!
GTFI ARSENAL FINALLY
I thought it went out behind goal. I didn't see that at all
Same here, I assumed it was side netting and then I saw it on the other side of the goal and I was like "wait, did that just go in outta nowhere"
I feel like if Forest had played more attacking they could have been dangerous. Instead they say back the whole game until they went behind
The VAR overlay was on screen for like 0.5 seconds before the camera people realized there was no way to visually explain what the fuck they were asking for
Nah man why does it have to be this difficult to score
They're packed deep as heck, and tbf to them it's working so far.
I think we also struggle to break open teams that play this defensively. And because we're pushed so high up, we're open to a counter
That ball from zinchenko was fucking wonderful. No idea if he meant it
Well there goes Gabriel's clean sheet points
Saka my man
SAKA!!!
That's a guaranteed concussion, my god
Nervy end but we pulled it out, at least
Havertz isn't quite as good at the corner flag schenanigans lol
That's it. There is a god, and he fucking hates our club
Reminds me of those God is a Serb memes on polandball back when I was on reddit and could read them. God must be a Spud.
And yet they're trying to replace turner lol
surely this is only because we're here he's Turned into Superman. Or SuperDawg
Turner is doing well the few times he has had to get involved. Hopefully he switches off, lol
BUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUKAYO
Let's go Trossard! More of this please
Attack is fixated on the left side today
Wonder if that's due to ESR. We seem to favour the right way too often.
Truly we need someone who will get us goals.
That's Kai Havertz - influence play without touching the ball
For some reason this comment reminded me of that Gabriel dummy a while ago lol. Hard to appreciate things off the ball.
Is there a glove or something on the pitch? I keep getting distracted by it
It catches my eye everytime lol
it looked like a bra or bikini to me
👌 Very nice, although I shudder to think of what it'd be like to wear that in this weather
Ohh shit, I missed the appointment of Nuno at Forest...
ANOTHER ONE
damnit, that just made Nelson lose his chance to come on lol.
Ball is adverse to the goal
Away fans singing "you're going down" 😂
Fuck, cmon! lol
Get in? I didn't even see what happened... lol
So many mistakes in one run of play
how did THAT go in and not something else, are you joshing me lol
We seem a little.... off
Just some clumsy touches when we get it up front, but tbf forest have really given us 0 space in front of goal so far.
There's that, but also just slight miscommunications and out-of-syncness, like earlier when we had a throw-in and the runner overran the thrown ball
Reissssssss ooooooo
Gibbs White is such a waste of attacking talent
Wasn't even going to be a corner that
Jesus has put on his facilitator boots on tonight
lad almost got an assist
Wtf was that...
my stream giving me ads after the game literally already started wtf lol
I had issues trying to watch it on Optus Sport using Firefox. I just had an irritatingly black screen for ages, no matter what I did. Had to switch to Chrome
found a better one :p
Why are we just playing hot potato in the box
CAN WE STOP JUST GIVING THEM BACK THE BALL EVERY TIME WE TACKLE?
Some people wanted Emile on the right
heh idk what to say
come on ladssssss
Turner's claiming a lot of these corners, really wish we'd mix it up a bit and make him come out more
Why's he allowed to stand there, lol, wasn't it out of play cuz of the var check?
ESR is looking good. Always worried by Chris Wood tbh.
Jesus off the bar. Can't hit the top corner from right in front
I mean, I don't mind those, but I think I'd prefer it to be a little closer to the goal, lol
Kinda hope Nketiah gets a hat-trick cuz it'll be hilarious to watch people's reactions lol
I didn't miss the nervy final moments of a game, no need to bring them back.
I know - I was ready to go eat dinner - now I have to make sure they don't twat it away
Really clear answer about this play stoppage bullshit. If the ref stops play when montiels gone down from a kick from his own player when arsenal has the ball in the box, what's stopping players from doing that all the time?
The other thing is ref could have seen it wasn't a head injury and we were in a dangerous position at the time. If he had stopped play all the Arsenal players/fans would be livid for denying us a potential chance.
Damned if you do, damned if you don't. It feels like the right call, but if something similar happened to us, I'd want to ref to look after the wellbeing of the player
Yeah that's what I was getting at. You elucidated the point much better!
ffs
When it rains it pours i guess
Interesting how Gabriel is doing what he's doing so far up the field lol.
😳😳😳😳😳🥺
Jesus needs the R9 haircut to score from a header
Seems fair enough.
Jesus trying to redeem himself - it never works out though
Good tackle by Saka to win the ball back. No support for Ode near the corner flag though
That looks like a card imma be honest
I thought the same, was a little late and wasn't near the ball...
The Smith did pretty good today, I assume Havertz starts against Pool though, if not Jorgi.
I think you're right. I think he was solid, but maybe not enough for Arteta to start him over Havertz atm
Man, if we had someone in the middle of the box to follow up the rebound, could have been 1 up.
I feel like we never have someone there to jump on those small chances that could become something.
Luton score 4 against Brighton, including a hattrick
Just Premier League things. Also including an assist from Sambi.
Brighton no longer bright
Individual errors leading to goals - an arsenal heritage
Whoa what the fuck that was a massive hit
^ not trying to imply it was intentional. Been watching too much American football lately, it seems
One thing that's quite nice: ESR has completely settled into that 10 role now it feels. Hard to even remember that he played on the wing first lol.
All that was left has been delivered
He's better off not shooting
Didn't know it was Matty Turner in goal 🤧
Honestly dude was pretty good for us, hope he lets 5 in today tho
And only because of their defence and not his goal keeping abilities
Havertz whew that flick was kinda sick lol
My knuckles are going to bleed
Nketiah still doesn't have his away goal in a year right
Three in front of him and Nelli makes a back pass
I've always found that quite frustrating.
I mean he's Argentine so...
Decent chance from Forest. I think Saliba did a good job forcing him to shoot to the right.
That was soft
Almost expected a back pass on the counter from Nelli
Who got the assist
Probably Jesus? It looked like it hit Havertz on the way over but I think he jumped it
Jesus
Ewon-yee
Well, he did well initially. Not sure what happened after that...
The Premier League is starting to feel like La Liga these days istg
Everything's coming up Arsenal.
Just no space to take a shot :(
Arsenal these days in a nutshell
joga bonito
Also, I need just one more corner to win my total corners bet :D
Or not.
LOL the 49ERS HAT
When I first moved here, took me too long to realise that 49ers were not Arsenal fans lol
Oh for fuck's sake...
Never good to see friendly fire...
I looked away for a bit, what friendly fire?
That shouldn't be a corner. That was off Forest
guessing it'll be until the 98 or so, lots of stops this added time.
Shoulder might be off, impossible to tell lol
One of the commentators on the Optus sport stream is insufferable
Which one? Lol
I usually find that's the case too
Dunno his name but the one going on about managers knowing the rules of the game when the season starts and criticising them for reacting to referee decisions. The context was Nuno getting frustrated about the delay in montiel getting back on, and Arteta shaking his head when Gabriel J got his yellow.
The context the commentator is forgetting is that basic rules like dissent are not consistently applied so I think they're well within their rights to be frustrated.
They'll score one in the 67th minute and then our penalty area pinball shall continue
