Win Premier League: Arsenal FC 3-0 AFC Bournemouth | Saturday, May 4th | KO: 12:30 BST | TNT Sports 1

Starting lineups:





The man's not top dog in Jersey for nothing. He knows there's only so much Angeball can do in the face of a superior outfit

Seeing as I've contributed massively to our season by shepherding the matchday thread against the denizens of the lost & the damned, I figured I should lend some of my gloss to AM once again as I will our beloved Gunners on to victory. Don't know why I'm even bothering as Google seem to think it's a foregone conclusion.



We must be vigilant against this lot, they pushed us all the way last season & they play good football, so we should not slacken in the slightest. But, after the magnificent showing today, I think it's fair to say with a good bit of rest, we should have all the tools to dismantle them if we remain calm.


I certainly am looking forward to this guy losing his rag like he did in the 97th minute last season

In any case, we're on the cusp of greatness & we have a chance to heap further pressure on 115 Charges FC who, hopefully, won't have it all their way.

God willing, we'll take them all the way to the final Sunday. It is our burden, it is our destiny!!

 

[Oxeki]

We have equalled our goal tally of last season.

 

[Jasard]

He is on 170k. Very few teams can afford him

Can say that for every player in and around our first team forever. Even have players that never play on 100k.

 

[samshere]

It's pretty crazy that Arteta, Xabi Alonso and Iraola were all childhood friends.

They've all drunk from the pool of everlasting good hair.

 

[Makingtrax]

Not a bad interview by Havertz, really praised Saka. Deservedly so.

 

[Thrice]

He's 22. Still five years from his prime

He's having a bad season, but he deserves the opportunity to bounce back from it next year.

 

[TheEliteMaster100_]

He has had a dip in form. Far from finished.

Season long dip?

 

[Sapient Hawk]

@Riou

I knew I wasn't the only one who looked at him & saw Alfred Molina

 

[blaze_of_glory]

He's having a bad season, but he deserves the opportunity to bounce back from it next year.

Exactly, and he was doing pretty well earlier on. Had a rough few months but you dont just give up on a 22 year old player who's already shown what he can do at this level.

People forget how he got injured everytime he looked like getting back to his actual level

The foot injury Martinelli copped vs Sheffield completely derailed him; he was actually hitting a run of good form at that period.

Is my bro doing one of those infamous Canadian cacao ceremonies in some forest?

It's a paradise mate, what a place !!!




Thank you Snack Media

Everyone mentioning City’s game against Sp**s as the one game they could drop points. I honestly think Fulham will cause them problems next weekend

This is the one game most are overlooking.
Fulham are annoying to play against. I can def see a 1-1 draw. If we win our final 2 by at least 1 goal each there’s no way City make up 12 GD.

 

[Gooner Zig]

The narrative on Bournemouth from the media made them sound like they were Brazil '82 ffs

We could have scored 5 past them in the first half alone

 

[Rasmi]

Can say that for every player in and around our first team forever. Even have players that never play on 100k.

He would be the highest paid player easily at clubs like West Ham, Aston Villa, Brighton and even Newcastle. We are stuck with him

Oh dear, what a terrible situation to be in, I don't know how we're going to cope

fair play, they are a decent team. and we do bad against teams like that, also the pressure is huge on us...

 

[Blankety Blank]

call the Kroenke, drop some big bonuses on the Foxes.

Everybody wants to own a Walmart in Ogden. make it happen.

Like City did on Chris Wood last week
Lol I'm sure 115 Charges FC will give them more.
Why we calling them by Leicesters nickname btw is it some in joke I missed.

 

[Rasmi]

I thought from Bournemouth dango ouattara was fantastic. He went from a winger to been converted to a left back. The type of guy you want as left back.

 

[dino bravo]

We have to go and win next up at greyskull, Bournemouth went there and dusted them 3-0.

They are massive City simps though so they ‘have something on the game’.

 

[Gooner Zig]

He was halfway falling down and he hung a leg, cmon now.

That...doesn't matter, come on. That pen is given all the time mate.
