    Good to see you back. You always were one of my favorite.

    Disagree with always hitting a ball crossed from the left with your right foot. Whiffing with your left is more likely, but it really shouldn’t happen either. He is left footed after all.

    He should’ve used his right foot

    Surely we no longer believe in shots that have to be scored?

    People wiff or miskick all the time

    I feel your pain. I have a difficult time staying awake for any Arsenal matches any more. Not sure if it is my age or that Arsenal have been shit for so many years.

    A world without xG? Say it ain't so.

    Seriously, if that swing and a miss wasn't a high xG value then...

    Take a chance on Freddie LOOL. You guys clearly want an Ole situation. Emery should finish the season. Not a fan of mid point sackings. Also he has a 60% win rate in his time with us. Let's just pray he gets some sense in formation and selection. But sacking him now only makes sense for Allegri. The names I'm hearing are ridiculous- Benitez, Ranieri.

    And even with the miss, he was our best player in the match by some margin. And yes, I realize in this specific context, that's a low bar.

    For real. That chance was more than half of our xG for the entire match. That should never happen.

    Depends on the source of your information. I'm going to assume Twitter, Reddit, etc. Any journalists throwing out names at this stage are just offering opinions.

    Despite what appears to be the overwhelming fan sentiment, I don't believe the club is seeking a replacement for Emery at this time.

    I'm only 29 and I almost passed out during this one, so chalk it up to the club. :p
