Ok, who's starting next week's thread?

 

Good that the new manager isn't picking the team based on reputations, but this is a bit of a left-field selection. Hope he's right...

 

Jesus Christ, I just saw Lee Dixon and Graeme LeSaux duking it out on the pitch back in the day, I want to see a fight break out in the gantry, Arlo White MAY have his hands full today!!! COYF'n'G!!! Beat Chel$ki!!!

 

well hazard is on the bench

 

Let’s do this

 

Sari really looks... um... sharp on that Chelsea touch line.

 

So it looks like the MC game wasn’t an aberration. We don’t look good against another team with a new manager either.

Our midfield is nonexistent so far.

 

Ohhhh my ozil

 

Oh Miki. He looked awful there.

 

Jorginho is some player.

 

Bellerin, what is he thinking?

 

First bit I've been able to watch this season. God, we suck.

 

LMAO. Poor team selection, school boy defending , asleep at the start, being dominated, what’s changed since Wenger left ???

 

Miki on the right has been a disaster.

 

this is going to be a long season

 

willian and alonso smoking on the flank every single time

our midfielders unable to get the ball out....

 

The whole right side of the team is both slow to react and bad on the ball. Not a great combo

 

Sweet clearance, Aube.

 

GODAMMIT AUBA. THAT DESERVED TO COUNT AS TWO GOALS

 

Christ!

 

High line with no ball pressure. We might be seeing this for a while.

ARTETA IN!!!

 

********s sake

good night all

 

Sigh

 

How the f*** do you MISS AN OPEN NET????

Nicely done Auba.............NOT!!!
