Do you think Owen is trying to cultivate something resembling a personality lately? It isn’t going well Sutton is generally an idiot but he's actually been quite well spoken about this subject in the last year or so. Michael Owen is just an incredibly stupid person. I can't imagine he pays attention to anything in his life aside from football and racing and doesn't understand a single thing about the world outside of that sporting bubble. He's like someone who's been living wild in a forest for 25 years and has just emerged blinking into civilisation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was thinking with his appearance on The Masked Singer (yeah, seriously) if he is doing some forced wacky I’m not a boring puddle really type thing.

Paid Members PunkStep Posted February 25, 2022 Paid Members Share Posted February 25, 2022 Odegaard is different gravy. To think some of our fans turned their noses up against making his transfer permanent. Too much FIFA Ultimate Team for them, wanting the latest boner player out their instead. He's been immense. I love them all. What a great bunch of lads. Still so young too, youngest squad in the league I think? Two new strikers to replace all of the strikers we're losing, a commanding central midfielder and perhaps a better back-up option for Tomi and we're well up there.

Paid Members Teedy Kay Posted February 25, 2022 Paid Members Share Posted February 25, 2022 That lad Atkinson was amazing for you last night. 😉 In all honesty you deserved that win, thought you played us off the park. Would have been interesting had White not dived though, would have LOVED to see what Coady would have done with that. Would have probably blown it over, but him nestling it in the bottom corner would have been one of my moments of the last few years. Lacazette engaging Troy Deeney mode was very interesting, his physicality definitely let the rest of your forward line be able to play. Defo the best team we've played this season. Having an agressive cunt up top is underated. Raul could be that at times, but he just hasn't been the same since Luiz caved his head in. I do wonder when a review of the officiating of football in England is going to happen, it's so dire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperBacon Posted February 25, 2022 Share Posted February 25, 2022 The 'highlight' of last night (don't know why I watched it-sadomasochism maybe?) was the utterance of "Kevin Friend is nobody's friend tonight" on comms. Pure Partridge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s interesting to hear the view from the other side, I thought we were pretty poor for 70 minutes, lots of stale possession without really creating many chances. Pepe and Nketiah made the difference. Odegaard is fucking great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're happy to let teams play it about and do fuck all. You scored two goals against our back line, two really well worked goals. That isn't easy to do. You're play in and around the 18 yard box was excellent and really troublesome, and your press against our defence was spot on too, it's why I thought Saka played well, he harassed Saiss all game, and niggled at Ait-Nouri on top. Spot on graft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members PunkStep Posted February 25, 2022 Paid Members Share Posted February 25, 2022 I want our next striker to do exactly what Laca does...but score more goals too. The way he plays compliments this team very well. You know who'd be bloody ideal for this Arsenal team if he were younger? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Devon Malcolm Posted February 25, 2022 Paid Members Share Posted February 25, 2022 You don't need a calendar to tell you it's February, just look to see if Arsenal fans are going through their 'unreasonably hopeful' stage of the season.

Paid Members air_raid Posted February 27, 2022 Paid Members Share Posted February 27, 2022 I don’t consider “pre-assist” to be a thing, but just like Kane to Son last Sunday, the Winks through-ball to Sessegnon for the goal yesterday has to be admired. Hope Winks actually doing something useful doesn’t make everyone forget the good work Skipp had been doing in the middle as the metronome before he got injured - a real Poundland Scholes. But without the goal threat, obviously. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
