Man Utd (A). Sunday 4.30pm. Sky.

[Cripps]

Jose will be relishing sticking the boot in one last time :(

[Xhaka Can’t]

Jose is a greasy cockgobbler

[Goonermerree]

And he will stick the boot in as we will have to rest players. This is not going to be pretty.

[Marc Overmars]

Can we just forfeit this one? It’s going to be a waste of everyone’s time.

[Letters]

Jose is a greasy cockgobbler

Correct.

And agree with MO. Just don't turn up, physically instead of metaphorically.

[Niall_Quinn]

If we rest our players any more this season they will develop deep vein thrombosis. There's no more resting. These pampered, overpaid and underworked bunnies need to be out there trying to defend what little honour Wenger has left the club with - I'm sure there's some knocking around somewhere that he hasn't shit on yet.

If we send out another random team to get arse fucked in public against what used to be our major rival for titles then let that be Wenger's enduring legacy. The man who was so past it he couldn't even put up the pretence of a fight.

A long way from Vieira snarling in the tunnel, aren't we?

[Marc Overmars]

Even if it is the first choice 11 that play, we know they won't be feeling competitive enough to give it a go with their minds on the second leg.

It would be a miracle if we got a draw.

[Letters]

What would a win in this one mean anyway, really?
It cements 6th place.

yay

Protect our better players for next Thursday, we're still in the tie, that's the clear priority.

[selassie]

And he will stick the boot in as we will have to rest players. This is not going to be pretty.

Yeah I think this will be uncomfortable viewing TBH. Can see us losing this 3 or 4 nil.

[Niall_Quinn]

This is what I mean about the Wenger mentality that has killed us. You can seriously ask what a win against Utd on their patch would mean.

There it is, right there.

The board, the manager, the players, the fans. All infected.

[Marc Overmars]

We haven’t taken 3 points at Old Trafford since September 2006.

Plus it would annoy Mourinho losing his final game against Wenger.

[Letters]

In the context of could we finish 6th or 7th: Meh.
In the context of could we finish 1st or 2nd: :patrice:

It's a pretty obvious difference.
The fact that the question is whether we finish 6th or 7th is, of course, pretty damning.
But we are where we are and in the context of where we are: finishing outside the European places BUT in the midst of a semi-final in the EL with, Kos brainfart or not, we are still in, the priority is clear.

[Goonermerree]

Yeah I think this will be uncomfortable viewing TBH. Can see us losing this 3 or 4 nil.

And the rest.

[Goonermerree]

We haven’t taken 3 points at Old Trafford since September 2006.

Plus it would annoy Mourinho losing his final game against Wenger.

I hadn't realised that. :sick: We couldn't even scrape a win when everybody and his dog was beating them. I think we lost one nil and thought we'd done well

Sometimes there is pride to play for, but we won't have any players if they play and get injured. Wait, that might be a good thing and let some youngsters who are hungry go and get Atletico.

[Marc Overmars]

I hadn't realised that. :sick: We couldn't even scrape a win when everybody and his dog was beating them. I think we lost one nil and thought we'd done well

This is the ultimate graveyard fixture for us. Even when we were decent we still rarely won at Old Trafford.

I hate it.

[Letters]

Sometimes there is pride to play for, but we won't have any players if they play and get injured. Wait, that might be a good thing and let some youngsters who are hungry go and get Atletico.

Yeah, obviously I hope we win and definitely hope we don't get a pasting. But Thursday has to be the priority.
If we were still in the title race it would be different, but we're not.

[Niall_Quinn]

If you want to be in there trying to finish 1st rather than 2nd you must first have a winning mentality. We don't. That's why we are competing for 6th or 7th.

At some point that has to change or we won't be competing for 1st again.

It's a football match. It's a competitive sport. We are supposedly a top team. We have highly paid, supposedly professional players and a manager that gets paid a fortune to do what? Compete? Or chuck it because there's something else we'd rather be doing?

What does a hammering at OT give us in terms of momentum, belief, pride? Or aren't those things worth the risk of losing a player to injury or making the little lambs tired?

Yeah, let's chuck it and then drag our feet-up, refreshed arses over to Spain. Because all the resting did us a lot of good last night, didn't it? I'd much rather have gone into that game with a team that has battled together all season through thick and thin and clawed for every point - blood, guts, injuries, suspensions and all the rest that is part and parcel of the game.

Instead we have part-timers turning up for the glamour events in the hope of remembering what they do for a living.

It's a cowardly, losing way to go about things. It's What Wenger has bred into the club.

[Letters]

Resting players in between the two legs of a two leg tie is what every manager would do.
I don't want us to "chuck" it, and I don't want us to get hammered.
But the Utd game is not a "must win" game like it would have been back in the day when we were chasing titles.
I'll be disappointed if Wenger puts out "the kids" and we get a walloping, if it rests a few key players or puts them on the bench then fine, I think pretty much any manager would do that in these circumstances.

[Marc Overmars]

Alexis Sanchez.

The only motivation needed to win this. You know he will relish putting us to the sword.

[Goonermerree]

Alexis Sanchez.

The only motivation needed to win this. You know he will relish putting us to the sword.

Weasel

[Bumble]

this game is like last year with roles reversed where united had to rest players for the Europa and didn't give a monkeys and we spanked them.

on the plus side United are still capable of one of those stroll round the pitch performances. they did lose at home to west brom not long ago. Also they only have the FA cup to play for and make take it easy because of that.

it could be a really dull game.

[Letters]

Oh yeah. That's true about the FA Cup. They've not got much to play for in the league, nor have we.
Could be a bit of a nothing game all round.

[Bumble]

Oh yeah. That's true about the FA Cup. They've not got much to play for in the league, nor have we.
Could be a bit of a nothing game all round.

it is a nothing game. we will rest players, united might rest players and it really depends on if Pogba is interested or not. although we have lost to a united side with 8 defenders in the team so anything is possible.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

:lol:

Fuck this shit.

[KSE Comedy Club]

Auba best not be on the fucking bench for this :sulk:

[Mac76]

agree with all of that - my fear is Wenger will do something daft like playing Laca instead of Auba like he did in the W Ham game - one of the stupidest most illogical things I've ever seen and it may actually have had an effect on his, Monreal's and Bellerin's fitness at the end of the game

[AFC Leveller]

Will probably lose this, we have nothing to play for, they always beat us at OT and we have a huge game on Thursday so I’m going for a 3-0 loss.

[Marc Overmars]

Apparently we have taken a squad predominately made up of reserves. Auba, Bellerin, Welbz and Cech are the only senior players thought to have travelled.

Wenger trying to top the 8-2. :bow:

[Goonermerree]

I think I'll watch this game from behind the sofa.

[Bumble]

do you remember the Chelsea semi final when we had recently signed Arshavin yet he didn't start against the Chavs despite not being available for a European game I think.

[Goonermerree]

do you remember the Chelsea semi final when we had recently signed Arshavin yet he didn't start against the Chavs despite not being available for a European game I think.

Don't you know, a player has to settle into the PL? English football, That's why he didn't pay Laca for a full 90 minutes.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

do you remember the Chelsea semi final when we had recently signed Arshavin yet he didn't start against the Chavs despite not being available for a European game I think.

It was ahead of the midweek Liverpool game I think, which obviously was the more important one for us languishing in fourth. :lol:

I hate resting players, what benefit has it ever served us?

[Goonermerree]

It was ahead of the midweek Liverpool game I think, which obviously was the more important one for us languishing in fourth. :lol:

It never has. We lose the match we're resting the players for and lose the match with the lesser team.

[Niall_Quinn]

It was ahead of the midweek Liverpool game I think, which obviously was the more important one for us languishing in fourth. :lol:

I hate resting players, what benefit has it ever served us?

None whatsoever, ever. It's another psychological problem Wenger has created for himself and the players. We can't play 2 games a week. The fixture schedule is against us. We are tried. He literally tells the players these things before we go into big games. He's like a professional demotivation coach.

[Cripps]

:lol:

I had a bit of sentiment for Wenger when they said he was going, but I lost all of that when I saw our bench last Thursday. How did we end up with a bench like that for a European semi in a competition that could get us back into the CL?

[McNamara That Ghost...]

https://pbs.twimg.com/media/Db9QXCKXcAAN2aF.jpg

Mavropanos gets chucked in to Man Utd away? :haha:

[Gooner23]

Hopefully Laca is just being completely rested as a precaution. Good luck to the new lad, hell of a test for your debut.

[Cripps]

If we tonked that'll destroy his confidence and career :lol:

Wenger getting one over Mislintat and going out with a bang :lol:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Man Utd: De Gea, Valencia, Lindelof, Smalling, Young, Ander Herrera, Matic, Pogba, Lingard, Lukaku, Sanchez.

[Goonermerree]

https://pbs.twimg.com/media/Db9QXCKXcAAN2aF.jpg

Mavropanos gets chucked in to Man Utd away? :haha:
Sink or swim. Is Wenger bowing out of OT as Arsenal manager with an all time low or a fantastic high. Gulp!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Ignominy I'd envisage.

[AFC Leveller]

5-1.

you heard it here first (unless someone else predicted it already).

[Globalgunner]

What happened the last time we showed up at OT with a makeshift squad of newbies and journeymen?. Yes,we got tanked, thats what.

[Niall_Quinn]

Wenger showing again he doesn't give a shit about Arsenal FC or the fans.

I hope the cunt's zip breaks.

[The Emirates Gallactico]

:haha::haha:

The shellacking we receive will only be worth it if we end up beating Atletico on Thursday and progressing to the final.

[Cripps]

Mavropanos :rose:

Another career destroyed today :rose:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Souness, Henry and Redknapp are in the studio.

[Alpha]

No pressure? Nothing to play for ? Actually this game might suit us well . We can get a draw or even nick it for Wenger . Come on Arrrrrrsenal .

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Ah they've booted Redknapp out to the stands.

[Marc Overmars]

A wonderfully random team with no chemistry just begging to be pumped.

Wenger’s last stand. :bow:

[Cripps]

Do we have the play this game?

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Come on Arsenal. :bow:

[Mac76]

Doesn't Welrubbish normally score against Yanited? old club syndrome and all that?

so Wenger leaves him on the bench...which also means he is less likely to be injured before Thursday - a shame as it would immediately boost our chances against Atletico...

[Niall_Quinn]

Fuck off Wenger! CUNT!

Fuck off Wenger! CUNT!

Fuck off Wenger! CUNT!

COYG!!!!!

Despite that cunt Wenger, let's try for a result here.

[Gooner23]

Wenger getting a warmer send off here than that at the Emirates :d

[Cripps]

Wenger and 2 fans having their pictures taken :bow:

[Marc Overmars]

That was classy from United.

Then again no one has been more generous to them than wenger, they will miss him more than we will.

[KSE Comedy Club]

Nice little present for Wenget there.

A silver vase :lol:

[Mac76]

Fergush*te just presented Wenger with an 8-2 memorial trophy...

[KSE Comedy Club]

Mavraponovs already proving to be a better defender than kos and mustafi put together

[Niall_Quinn]

Mavraponovs already proving to be a better defender than kos and mustafi put together

And Wenger won't be around long enough to fuck him up.

[Marc Overmars]

Xhaka :haha:

[The Emirates Gallactico]

Xhaka you moran! :doh:

Fuck I forgot that it's Alexis' first game against us.

[Niall_Quinn]

Good link play from Xhaka. Alexis almost in.

[Mac76]

let-off from pogba

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Fuck off Wenger! CUNT!

Fuck off Wenger! CUNT!

Fuck off Wenger! CUNT!

COYG!!!!!

Despite that cunt Wenger, let's try for a result here.

He is.

[Niall_Quinn]

Joking aside though, how can Xhaka still be making errors like that under no pressure?

Must get rid.

[Mac76]

no-one anticipated that Mikhataryan pass

[The Emirates Gallactico]

We look quite sharp tbh.

*Waits for us to lose this 6 - 1.*

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Nelson scuff a shot, going wide, De Gea saves.

[The Emirates Gallactico]

Mavraponovs is 6 3" and built like a fucking tank. This is exactly the profile of CB's we need to have in the team - like the look of him so far.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

1-0 Pogba. :lol:

[Cripps]

:lol: :rose:

[The Emirates Gallactico]

And so it begins. FFS.

[Niall_Quinn]

At least it wasn't Alexis.

[Globalgunner]

....and so it begins

[Marc Overmars]

I’m surprised we lasted 16 minutes tbh.

[Cripps]

Jose to spank Wenger one last time :lol:

[The Emirates Gallactico]

In the 8 - 2 we conceeded the first goal at 22 minutes so we're actually behind schedule at the moment. :(

[Cripps]

Time to make the match reaction thread

[Niall_Quinn]

I feel quite sorry (relatively speaking because they probably all earn 50k a week) for these kids. Chucked into a random team by that crackpot and sent out to play the first Utd 11 at OT.

Mind you, now the fraud is getting the boot, maybe this can be a useful character building exercise and a real manager can come in and use it.

[Marc Overmars]

Arsene Wenger, we want you to stay :lol:

They’re going to lose out on their easiest 3 points of the season

[The Emirates Gallactico]

It was just terrible defending from out MF. No one picking up Pogba running into the box.

Hopefully the new manager will actually coach that into them.

[Niall_Quinn]

Jose to spank Wenger one last time :lol:

No, he'll spank him some more if Wenger goes to PSG.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Mkhitaryan fires it wide.

[Marc Overmars]

Mkhi should have got that on target

[AFC Leveller]

Could have been Alexis' goal there.

[Niall_Quinn]

Watch AMN throughout that entire move. Excellent. The pass, move, forward motion. Excellent. So glad a new manager is coming in to work with him.

[Cripps]

Watch AMN throughout that entire move. Excellent. The pass, move, forward motion. Excellent. So glad a new manager is coming in to work with him.

You won't when it's Arteta :lol:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Xhaka diving in like a loon for that goal and being completely bypassed.

[Globalgunner]

Arsene Wenger, we want you to stay :lol:

They’re going to lose out on their easiest 3 points of the season

6 points TBH

[Cripps]

We're making Pogba look like Zidane :lol:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Xhaka booked. :rolleyes:

[Cripps]

Xhaka :haha:

[Niall_Quinn]

We're making Pogba look like Zidane :lol:

Bald?

[Mac76]

Xhaka ffs that's three totally sh*t pieces of play now

[Cripps]

People actually trekked up and paid for this :haha:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Should be a pelanty.

[Niall_Quinn]

Xhaka ffs that's three totally sh*t pieces of play now

True, it's one of his better performances.

[The Emirates Gallactico]

FFS that was a pelanty!

Old Trafford :rolleyes:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Aubameyang should be hitting it first time.

[Niall_Quinn]

Mikki thinks he's still playing for Utd. Dives but gets nothing.

Alexis discovers he actually is playing for Utd. Fouls in the box. Ref waves play on.

[Cripps]

Nelson and AMN look the same :unsure:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Bellerin with a useless cross, ends up being a shot on target.

Dink it to the back you berk!

[The Emirates Gallactico]

Maitland Niles looks really good.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Nelson and AMN look the same :unsure:

Racist.

[Cripps]

Bellerin :doh:

[The Emirates Gallactico]

Nelson and AMN look the same :unsure:

That's racist blud.

[Globalgunner]

Should be a pelanty.

Those things are still banned at OT, unless its Ashley young whose been breathed upon

[Niall_Quinn]

Bellerin?

WTF?

[Marc Overmars]

Plenty of chances in this if we can be bothered

[Niall_Quinn]

Maitland Niles looks really good.

Very, very good. Best player on the pitch so far.

[The Emirates Gallactico]

A bit better quality in teh final third and we could score a few today.

[The Emirates Gallactico]

Very, very good. Best player on the pitch so far.

Still way too early to put all our CM hopes into him though NQ. We still have to buy.

[Mac76]

f**k you Young

[Niall_Quinn]

Still way too early to put all our CM hopes into him though NQ. We still have to buy.

We need to do nothing until that fraud is actually gone. We really have no idea how good (or bad) this squad is.

[Niall_Quinn]

It really does get boring at OT with the refs. So one-eyed. Year after year.

[Niall_Quinn]

Fortunately Lumpkaku is shit.

[The Emirates Gallactico]

Despite the scoreline our second string are playing much better football than Utd.

How can any Utd fan be happy with this shite?

[Niall_Quinn]

Lumpkaku :haha:

Hype, hype, hype.

[Niall_Quinn]

Despite the scoreline our second string are playing much better football than Utd.

How can any Utd fan be happy with this shite?

Was thinking the same myself. It's embarrassing.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Aubameyang header, as tame as it gets.

[Marc Overmars]

Put more on that Auba :doh:

[Cripps]

Is Aubameyang trying his hardest not to score?

[Niall_Quinn]

Auba heads one back to their keeper. Personally I'd have tried to score there.

[The Emirates Gallactico]

Aubreymang should have tried to volley it.

Once again good build up play.

[Niall_Quinn]

Lukaku is utter shit, isn't he?

[McNamara That Ghost...]

How hasn't Lukaku made it 2-0? :lol:

[Cripps]

The Utd of old would have been 4-0 up by now :rose:

[Globalgunner]

It really does get boring at OT with the refs. So one-eyed. Year after year.

There was a brief period under Moyes when they tried to be fair, but with the special cunt in place. the blinkers are back on

[Niall_Quinn]

Lukaku is like a fat Sanogo.

[Cripps]

:tumbleweed:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Youngy hits the post.

[Cripps]

Amateurish defending :haha:

[Globalgunner]

Xhaka is really stupid. The kind that seems to have no cure. We'll be down to 10 soon

[The Emirates Gallactico]

Young nearly pubs one in.

[Cripps]

Redknapp destroying Grandshit :haha:

[Mac76]

Auba needs to stay upfield when Moan U have a free kick

[Niall_Quinn]

Utd are more negative than we are. Which is fucking amazing.

200 billion quid spent and their team is as exciting as the dullest Wenger 11.

[The Emirates Gallactico]

Xhaka is really stupid. The kind that seems to have no cure. We'll be down to 10 soon

He needs protection around tbh. He's too weak and slow to dominate the CM by himself.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Nelson diving header, wide it goes.

[Cripps]

AMN heads wide.

[The Emirates Gallactico]

Nelson header wide.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

1-0 HT.

[Cripps]

Only 1-0 down at HT

Wenger :bow:

[Globalgunner]

1-0 HT. Feels like winning

[AFC Leveller]

Really like AMN, has a calmness about him.

[The Emirates Gallactico]

Well we're doing better than the 8 - 2.

Though there's still time. :rose:

[Marc Overmars]

Much better than I thought.

It might only be a narrow loss now.

Wenger :bow:

Proving us all wrong.

[Mac76]

AMN has playd well, and Mavronakos hasn't made any mistakes i can see

Xhaka is sh*te, Nelson disappointing at times and even Mikhatrayan isn't at his best though i guess he is coming back from injury plus Utd have his number

[The Emirates Gallactico]

Ironically the worst player so far has been a first teamer ... Xhaka.

[Mac76]

1-0 HT. Feels like winning

:d

[The Emirates Gallactico]

Mavropanos could become a beast for us in the future.

Sven :bow::bow:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Souness is really going for Xhaka and it's deserved.

[Marc Overmars]

Souness destroys Xhaka :haha:

[Mac76]

Souness is really going for Xhaka and it's deserved.

Sourness is still a total c**t though

[Mac76]

if it stays 1-0 we should go for it in the last 10 mins - i say bring Eddie on and tell him to express himself - doesn't matter if it's 2-0 instead :D

[Cripps]

Xhaka is captain :haha:

[Cripps]

if it stays 1-0 we should go for it in the last 10 mins - i say bring Eddie on and tell him to express himself - doesn't matter if it's 2-0 instead :D

I disagree. I think we should sit back if we're losing.

[Mac76]

Xhaka is captain :haha:

yeah i just noticed that...

well it makes sense - to Wenger anyway... :sarcy:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Maitland-Niles scuffer. Good run though.

[Marc Overmars]

Maitland Vieira with a nice run but fluffs the shot

[Mac76]

I disagree. I think we should sit back if we're losing.

ok, ok.... :)

[Cripps]

Maitland Vieira with a nice run but fluffs the shot

Me :bow:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Lukaku is dead. :rose:

Mavropanos takes him out. :bow:

[Cripps]

Mavropanos:bow:

Beast:bow:

[Mac76]

Lukaku is dead. :rose:

Mavropanos takes him out. :bow:

well done Mavropanos but it means we get Rashford on - i'm not sure that's such a good thing

[Niall_Quinn]

Oh shit. The huge useless lump has been subbed for a proper player.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

#Dontcrackunderpressure

:haha:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

MKHITARYAN!!!! :haha:

[Marc Overmars]

MKHI!!!! :haha:

[A Gunner]

1 - 1

[Cripps]

YESS!!!

[Niall_Quinn]

LOOOOOOOOOOOL

Maureen :haha:

Mikki :bow:

[Mac76]

YES!!!!

[Goonermerree]

Miky!!!!! yeeeesss

[Master Splinter]

MKHITARYAN!!!

[GP]

OH MKHI YOU'RE SO FINE!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Xhaka assist. :bow:

[Cripps]

JOSE :haha:

[Niall_Quinn]

Just ran right through them and passed it into the net :haha:

[Goonermerree]

Come on Arsenal, we can do this.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Youngy on the half volley, blocked behind.

[Goonermerree]

Our away fans are great. I so hope I can gt a ticket for Huddersfield. Away days are always the best.

[Mac76]

Youngy on the half volley, blocked behind.

'Youngy' almost sounds affectionate - please stop

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Mkhitaryan combs it, right in to the Etihad.

[Globalgunner]

Cant believe we scored.
Cant believe the ref didnt rule it out for some reason

[Niall_Quinn]

Mikki-greedy-bloke.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

'Youngy' almost sounds affectionate - please stop

That's his great, imaginative nickname though, other Maccy.

[selassie]

Maitland Niles & Mkhi have been very good today.

[Mac76]

That's his great, imaginative nickname though, other Maccy.

i prefer 'dirty cheating c**t'

and he's just proved why

[Niall_Quinn]

Mikki's diving and injury fakery that's he's brought from Utd is a great asset.

[Goonermerree]

Does this mean that Myki can play on Thursday?

[Niall_Quinn]

I wonder would we be better off subbing Xhaka and bringing nobody on to replace him?

[Cripps]

Away fans:

'Is this the Emirates?'

:lol:

[Niall_Quinn]

Right now I'd be more worried about the future as a Utd fan than I am as an Arsenal fan.

Then again, if I was a Utd fan I'd have bigger things to worry about.

[Niall_Quinn]

Does this mean that Myki can play on Thursday?

Yes. If he's picked. IF.

[Goonermerree]

What a waste of an attack, putting it straight into touch.

[Niall_Quinn]

Utd with an 11 million pass attack. Worse than us.

[Cripps]

Fellaini :haha:

[Goonermerree]

Elbows Fellani coming on.

[Globalgunner]

Defending is not our forte.

Kola crocked....Too bad, he was playing good. Kept Lumpkaku quiet.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Kolasinac off, Monreal on.

Nelson off, Welbz on.

Ander Herrera off, Fellaini on.

Lingard off, Martial on.

[Niall_Quinn]

Fallaini :haha:

:haha:

:haha:

:haha:

:haha:

How embarrasing.

Oh shit...

Welbeck :doh:

Teaches me to laugh at the misfortune of others.

[Goonermerree]

Kalacinak off again v United. Wuss.

[Cripps]

AMN off.

[Goonermerree]

Oh God, we have the ball coming out of defence and keep gifting it to them.

[Niall_Quinn]

Some say... Bellerin can't defend.

[Niall_Quinn]

Fantastic back pass by Martial.

[Niall_Quinn]

Hopefully Welbeck assist for the next Mikki goal.

Come on, you know it makes sense.

[Goonermerree]

Hopefully Welbeck assist for the next Mikki goal.

Come on, you know it makes sense.

And the third vice versa.

[Goonermerree]

We have players I've barely heard about, but we're level with United at OT. How are they second in the league?

[A Gunner]

I like Marv

[Cripps]

Mavropanos :bow:

Sven :bow:

[Niall_Quinn]

Smudger talking about Wenger harming young players' careers.

Agree with him on this one occasion.

[Niall_Quinn]

It's a shit league. But don't tell the money men that or they'll sue you.

[Mac76]

Smalling haha

[Niall_Quinn]

Loobrush with the hopeful punt. Misses the target, obviously.

[Goonermerree]

United seem to be having all of the possession, come on lads, sort yourselves out. Ha, Ospina down again.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Willock coming on for Ospina? :popcorn:

[Niall_Quinn]

Ospina clueless there. How we get the free kick, who knows? But I'll take it.

[Goonermerree]

Cech coming on?

[Mac76]

damn please not ospina injured

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Willock on for Mkhitaryan in the end.

Wenger with a boring 1938th sub.

[Goonermerree]

Willock coming on for Ospina? :popcorn:

Out and out attack!

[Mac76]

Ospina clueless there. How we get the free kick, who knows? But I'll take it.

he didn't communicate with chambers i guess

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Awful pass from Welbeck.

[Cripps]

Wenger taking the 1-1 :bow:

[Goonermerree]

Willock on for Mkhitaryan in the end.

Wenger with a boring 1938th sub.

Saving Myki for Thursday.

[Niall_Quinn]

Nothing at all wrong with Ospina. Fakery.

Are we seriously going to pass up the chance to humiliate Utd on their own patch with a reserve team?

Fucking go for it.

Mikki subbed for Willock. Wenger getting worried we could nick this.

[Niall_Quinn]

Saving Myki for Thursday.

The saving, resting business is pure nonsense. He needs match fitness. 90 today and 90 on Thursday should be no problem whatsoever for a professional footballer. Wenger is full of shit.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Martial. :haha:

[Niall_Quinn]

Better by Ospina.

[Niall_Quinn]

Come on you wankers - nick it!

[Goonermerree]

The saving, resting business is pure nonsense. He needs match fitness. 90 today and 90 on Thursday should be no problem whatsoever for a professional footballer. Wenger is full of shit.

I agree with you, I've always said that. Training and playing matches is their full- time job. I used to work and train for marathons. It would have been great if my 20 mile Tuesday night run could have been done in the day.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Dive from Martial.

[Niall_Quinn]

Pathetic dive by Martial.

[Cripps]

Goonersweb getting a mention by Smith

[Niall_Quinn]

I once ate a whole 6 pack of Marathons in one night.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Valencia. :haha:

[Goonermerree]

I once ate a whole 6 pack of Marathons in one night.

Easy there, don't want to overdo it.

[Mac76]

Fellaini :haha:

[Niall_Quinn]

Valencia shoots down the ISS

[Marc Overmars]

Time to shut up shop.

1-1 is a miracle result

[Niall_Quinn]

Jose Mourinho - we want you to stay :haha:

Away fans :bow:

[Niall_Quinn]

I like that by Iwobi. Didn't come off for him but at 85 mins it was very positive.

[Goonermerree]

Jose Mourinho - we want you to stay :haha:

Away fans :bow:

I want him to get right out of English football.

[Globalgunner]

Jose Mourinho - we want you to stay :haha:

Away fans :bow:

Best away fans in the world TBF. Ty excepted.
