    AND Odegaard's ball skills are also supreme. He pulls that shot just 1-2 yards wide.

    Saka 2-0! After a nice team passing effort. We look like we're just playing with them.

    Would you say that Ron Holding’s hair is pushed back or slicked back?

    Great bit of work on that attack. Saka got what he deserved for all his work!

    Ballboy with grin on his face, tries to take subtle surreptitious video of our corner kick. Somehow not realizing that he's being watched by billions? ;)

    Mustoe just pointing out how Palace have focused on our central players but don't have any answer for our wingers, so Martinelli (and Saka to a lesser extent) has had a field day.

    And moments later they single out Zaha for his laxe culpable defensive actions. :)

    I turned this game on right as Martinelli scored, so I've seen the ball in the Arsenal defensive half maybe twice. Dominant after the goal.

    Offside was on Saka after the shot. He went after the rebound and thus judged active.

    Zaha has always been a ST on the wing. Dangerous offensively but never been one to put in much defensive work.

    Rebecca just said that Starboy is the first player in the league this season to do double-double in goals & assists. :inlove:

    Which is one reason I've never cared for Zaha, and why Mikel would never sign him. Unless he somehow believed he could teach an old dog new tricks. As dangerous as he can be at times, the other baggage he has is completely not worth it. I'm glad we never signed him.

    So who needs to be subbed? Martinelli, Xhaka, Zinchenko all played 120 min midweek. White needs to be managed if Tomiyasu is out for a while.

    Soooo... Had Xhaka not put that in should it have been a PK? Seemed like a good bit of body contact. May have gotten a bit of the ball but did it by playing through the man.

    Not sure I want to see a Holding-Walter's right side against Zaha

    Agree with all of those. Bring in Tierney, Walters, Jesus & Vieira/ESR at 65-70 min

    Good point. As much as I'd like to see 2 more goals, I'd rather not see Little Gabi pull a hammie.
