PL: Newcastle United v Arsenal | Sunday, May 2 | KO: 14:00 BST | Sky Sports

[Mrs Bergkamp]

An easy win with some good one touch football at times. The match itself just felt boring and like a nothing game. Biggest shame are the injuries to Luiz and Martinelli. Four Brazilians start and Willian is unscathed. Sigh. Happy with the win and Auba scoring and the number of shots he had.

 

[CaseUteinberger]

Our back ups are comparable if not better.

Think our squad is pretty good across the board with the exception of some positions. We just have too little real top quality like when we had top form Sanchez and Özil for example.

Welcome new member! Great first post, loving that positive vibe

That guy will fit right in!

Bruce doesn’t think it was a red card, says “you can’t tackle anyone anymore”

It was just a late challenge, this is a contact sport.

Don't think I would've been up in arms if it got a yellow instead.

 

[GLITCH]

nice martinelli assist for Auba’s goal and Schar got sent off trying to kill Martinelli

nothing else happened

Poor Elneny

Poor Elneny

Mo got the man of the match award, that's all that matters.

 

[bojed]

Feels good to win again.

We'll face Villareal with all guns blazing.

 

[Baki]

More defending Luiz, Gabriel, Holding, Chambers, Saliba etc. Lots of options and good enough to be pushing for top 6 atleast.

Our rivals don’t have a talent like Saliba waiting to play.

We actually have a good squad, it’s the manager that’s ****.

 

[razörist]

It’s true, I read it this week.

btw can’t believe we won the league again today who the f*ck are PSV Eindhoven?

Forgot to say earlier, but our players really are a bunch of pussies. Martinelli as a kid gets completely raked from behind by Schar. Look at 1:48 in this video when he gets tackled.


We have Xhaka, Willian, Bellerin, Partey, Ceballos, Elneny in the picture but none of them even step up to Schar after that disgusting tackle (done on purpose) into Martinelli's achilles. Arsenal Football Club has lacked some real gritty players for a long time now. This current set up in the dressing room is **** in that regard. You look at other teams in the league and they have players who will get angry and in the player or referees face after a challenge like that on one of their kids. The team's reaction to that tackle (and one's previously) gives me bad vibes about how much they really care or fight for eachother + the fans on the pitch.

We see Xhaka as someone who does that a lot but he didn't even care on this occasion, giving a pat on Schar's back as he walks off just because he's Swiss. The only players here that would back some beef after Xhaka is probably only Tierney and Holding (and Guendouzi too). Everyone else act like a bunch of ****ing pussies.

Guendouzi stood up for his mate and was reprimanded for it of which the fallout resulted in him being totally outcast from the club.

There was more than one incident with Guendouzi

 

[Rimaal]

Just caught the Auba goal, beautifully finished, and a splendid cross from Martinelli.

Can I just say that Mike Dean actually had a good performance today? Not sure every prem referee would have shown a straight red even though it was totally deserved.

This...poor reaction from the players. Bad spirit at the club.

 

[Riou]

I miss our players really protecting each other too.

The famous Vieira v Keane tunnel fight started, because Paddy went to up Neville pre match after he kicked Reyes all over Old Trafford and said "You won't be doing that **** here!" ...all our best squads had that about them.

Don't really blame the current squad for that, we have just identified and bought too many meeker characters in this team...been a problem through most of the Emirates era sadly.

Need to start signing more Lehmann's...people who are likely to start fights with their own teammates, never mind opponents...lets get OUR Arsenal back!

I don't rate Dean but at least he got decision right. That was a red all day long. From behind, through the player without any chance of getting to the ball. Probably thought he would get away with it as it was against an Arsenal player...

There’s a meme in there, with the steward being “AM mods” and the protesters being GDeep

@Camron @Heskey

It would seem I might have misunderstood the assignment during the night....

I went this route instead.
