Hang on

You can get thrown in jail?

Just for saying you’re English?

You didn’t see him give that piece of meat to the defender then?

Chop pass works, wasn't a back heel, he calf whacked it ...

Where you get mandatory lessons in lesbian race theory. Or something.

Great to see.

I doubt he will be alive in 15 years.

Great result. I’m really liking this squad and style of play.

Absolute sage-like once again.

Not a clue.

Not a £#%&!ing clue.

What a difference it makes packing side with youth & pace again. No middle aged men huffing & puffing out of possession (+ Shaw who must have that physical constitution by now).
Surprised how quickly the back 4 have settled. Varane obv. was always world class but didn't think that kind of midfield could support a viable defence. Rashford doing the business as he was always going to once Ronaldo was out the side. Arsenal will be £#%&!ed by losing Partey. Rather convenient injury he's suddenly picked up. They are got at so easily on the break with him out the side.

Haven't had passing and player movement like this for years - lovely goal

Great next day feeling. Always good to beat these dummies, even more so with Arteta in charge. Erik showing that good management is much more than waving your arms around and blasting YNWA through speakers.

Fred sub made all the difference imo. Close down their midfield, which despite the scoreline was still on top. Lovely stuff from the gaffer.

Yep. Just the right amount of piss boiled

The taste of boiled urine this morning is exquisite

They're all gibbering on about an obvious foul, when Arsenal equalised later anyway and were convincingly beaten in the end.
They're a lot like Wenger's later arsenal sides - lots of nice football and they'll clearly be up there, but ultimately lacking a cutting edge and with a massive victim complex.

I said it the other week but it’s like after years of the piss being ripped out of them for it, they really are trying to pass it into the back of the net now.

Keane had it spot on before the game. They’ll have plenty of possession, no worries there, but United will create the better chances and win.

Remember a couple of years ago some of these pundits saying we had likeable players etc I much prefer it when they hate us; it means we are on our way back

The thing about the foul on Eriksen was that it was a innocuous low level foul that’s given 9 times out of 10 and there are hundreds of those types of fouls given every week up and down the country.

Their issue is that it stopped a goal and so in their heads, it needs to be more significant like a two footed lunge or something.

It doesn’t. It was foul. Get over it you @#%&!s.

Being Arsenal

Win the possession statistics. Lose 3-1.

Still feel proud about it.
