Sutton United vs Arsenal. FA Cup. Feb 20th 2017

Debuchy on the bench? haha, bet he's thrilled with life right now

 

Weird KO time: 7:57pm

 

there may be local legislation banning weekday kickoffs after 8?

 

For a bunch of semipros, Sutton are not half bad.

 

Monreal looks trash right now lol

 

The turf is actually helping the quality of play . . . much better than playing on a potholed donkey patch.

 

Xhaka using his head again. Earning a caution as his reward.

 

1-0 to the Arsenal. After 25mins. Phew.

Ironically the turf worked against the keeper there.

 

Basically no chances created against a non-league team

Oops too late

 

yay

 

This Sutton team - how would they do against a top NCAA team? I'm just wondering.

 

That's a red on Xhaka

 

JRA looks awful

 

And right on queue gives up a yellow

 

Boring first half

 

that's half. credit to sutton

 

Ox on for Elneny. Apparently Mo did indeed have a knock.

 

Iwobi, Jeff, Theo and Elneny were especially shite in that first half

 

How many times have we passed the ball directly out for a throw in

 

Seems we're having a bit of problem with the pace of the turf. Lots of poorly weighted passes

 

Theo has a bad case of the nervous nineties.

 

Now he needs to raise his bat and smack someone with it.

 

2-0. On our second confident buildup of the match?
