Loss PL: Arsenal 0 - 2 Chelsea | 22nd August | KO: 16:30 | Sky Sports

[Rasmi]

Call me cynical. But I think they are protecting Ben white for this match with the illness. After last week being destroyed by lukaku would bring so much pressure

 

[Yousif Arsenal]

kind of stuff that gets a manager sacked

Yeah and someone else come and want him sacked in 6 month. Yay modern football is fun.

 

[Tir Na Nog]

If anything we should be giving Arteta a contract extension for all the bad luck he's getting, the first manager in the world to ever have to deal with injuries and illness.

 

[IstraBalagina]

Don’t want to see Chambers play again.

Fixed

 

[tap-in]

I'd like to know if players are doing enough to protect themselves from Covid. I see the number of people wearing masks dropping daily, yet cases and deaths are rising. Is the club doing enough to ensure they are as protected as much possible? Have all players been vaccinated? We know it reduces the chances of catching and transmitting covid so they should be vaccinated.

And they say Klopp was making excuses last season with all the injuries, wait for it... for getting top 4.

 

[Rex Stone]

Just 3 hours until kick off and there's plenty of room for those up the back of the Clock End to stretch their legs out

No doubt announced as another full house.

 

[Garrincha]

Yeah and someone else come and want him sacked in 6 month. Yay modern football is fun.

this fall it will be two years here! the club are too patient with these guys

The only one that had to deal with the pandemic as well apparently.

6 months

 

[OnlyOne]

I see you’re quickly ready with the excuses. Doesn’t matter even if we had our fully fit squad, be serious we are a level below and going to get turned over regardless. Pisses me off fans making excuses for everything Arteta/Edu and these ****e players do.

Nah man, people made these exact same excuses under Wenger and Emery, just because I don’t like Arteta doesn’t mean injuries don’t count for him. We’ll lose today but he’s playing with half a first team.

I don't have problems with that really the average age of manager is 2 years in modern era but imo i hope the fans no matter how much they want manager just support the team at least. The tickets are very expensive and no European football I'm happy people used thier brain and not paying for that the ticket prices should be more cheap

Indeed, im backing the team im not sure why people are pretending like we haven’t beat Chelsea before.

Or teams with Lukaku in it.

 

[Gunners1616]

Why are people so stressed about Lukaku ? Dude has 2 goals in 15 matches against us... It's not like we are facing prime Lewandowski or something.

Pretty confident Holding can handle him.

When did Lukaku become Thanos ffs
I bet you he's going to have a **** game, just like almost every game he's had against us.

 

[Yousif Arsenal]

It's bit sad people even think of that. He our starting cb if he not ill he'll play no matter it's Lukaku or Messi

 

[OnlyOne]

People saying Arteta can't make excuses when he's forced to make late changes and missing 4/5 first-team players just because they don't like him and that's a fact.

 

[field442]

Think we're better off not having White playing to be honest. If he couldn't handle Toney then Lukaku would destroy him. Still can't believe we spent £50m on a defender because of how good he is on the ball.

 

[GoonerJeeves]

Columbian curse hitting us again this season. Started with Brentford, then the Ramsdale signing and now the Chelsea game.

I have it on good authority that this is our next manager:

all players are vaccinated against the virus
yet they get the virus

soon we're all gonna be said to jump of the roof, for our own good
