Arsenal v Chelsea, 19/01 17.30 UK time, BT Sport 1

[Mac76]

well, clearly we're not very good at the moment, but Chelsea are not scoring much either so we really ought to be getting something from this.

no doubt Azzar can't wait to run rings round Mustafi and Xhaka though...

[Mac76]

damn, sorry i forgot to put that it's Saturday :doh: how do i change that?

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Done.

Also, fuck this. :lol:

Chelsea, Man Utd and Man City in consecutive weekends.

[Letters]

Done.

Also, fuck this. :lol:

Chelsea, Man Utd and Man City in consecutive weekends.

I have a good feeling about this match (strangely). I think we will win and this will kickstart our season!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Torreira. :bow:

[SMatthews]

Our best eleven (bar Holding) so time to put the work in.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Chelsea: Kepa; Azpilicueta, Rudiger, Luiz, Alonso; Jorginho, Kante, Kovacic; Pedro, Willian, Hazard.
Subs: Caballero, Christensen, Emerson, Ampadu, Barkley, Hudson-Odoi, Giroud.

[Mac76]

Fingers crossed socrates amd kos have a really good game and keep mustafi out of the side

And at least Ozil's on the bench which is something

[McNamara That Ghost...]

David Luiz to lose his head against his son Guendouzi. :pray:

[GP]

Lefty is the fake.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

McManaman co-commentating. :sick:

[SMatthews]

We’ve had one penalty this season. Must be due one.

[Globalgunner]

Gift horse staring from us early on

[Master Splinter]

We’ve had one penalty this season. Must be due one.

Anthony Taylor.

[SMatthews]

Trust me

(don’t)

[SMatthews]

Auba ffs!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Oh Auba.

[Globalgunner]

Auba ffs!

Not actually a great goal scorer

[Master Splinter]

If Auba gets eight chances today, he could get two goals.

Might be enough.

[SMatthews]

Not actually a great goal scorer

I’d put my money on him over Laca every time.

[Özim]

Some of Aubameyangs' finishing is really dreadful.

[Globalgunner]

I’d put my money on him over Laca every time.

id be happy if they both upped their game

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Hazard taps it, wide.

[SMatthews]

id be happy if they both upped their game

As long as one of them scores I’m happy.

[SMatthews]

Great save from Kos.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Pedro brutally hacks down Lacazette.

[SMatthews]

Laca!!

Me :bow:

[Globalgunner]

I’d put my money on him over Laca every time.

You were saying?

[AFC Leveller]

Sick goal

[McNamara That Ghost...]

LACAZETTE WHAT A FUCKING GOAL!!!!

[SMatthews]

You were saying?

Probably why I’m broke asf

[Master Splinter]

Fully deserved.

Should be 3-0 already.

[Letters]

Laca :bow:

What a goal!

[KSE Comedy Club]

Filthy tackle by Torreira there.

Love it :)

[Master Splinter]

Laca again scoring the difficult ones.

xG :haha:.

[SMatthews]

Well played Auba. Another chance for us.

[KSE Comedy Club]

That was a shame, just lost his footing there

[SMatthews]

Fuck that was close

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Kepa saves from Aubameyang.

[KSE Comedy Club]

What a tackle from Auba! :clap:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Fuck that was close from Pedro.

[SMatthews]

Kola looking as dodgy as ever at the back

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Well done Kos.

[AFC Leveller]

Have to say Bellerin adds about 30 percent to our play.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Er Laca.

[SMatthews]

This defence makes me nervous as fuck

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Jorginho. :lol:

How didn't Kante do anything with it just before that?

[SMatthews]

Well played Laca

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Ramsey. :haha:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Kepa saves fairly comfortably from Ramsey at distance.

[Globalgunner]

We are certainly up for it. Lets hope nothing happens to bring Mustafi off the bench

[Globalgunner]

Anthony Taylor, ever the twat

[SMatthews]

Close from Auba with the bicycle

[Globalgunner]

Close from Auba

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Some effort from Auba.

[Letters]

Brilliant effort by Auba

[McNamara That Ghost...]

David Luiz booked, should be off.

[SMatthews]

Kos!!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

KOSCIELNY!!!!! :bow:

[Letters]

2-0!!!!1

[SMatthews]

Shouldered in :lol:

[Globalgunner]

Luiz trying to sabotage a 300kpw bonanza for Ramsey

Kos!!!!!!. I take everything back

[AFC Leveller]

CB assisting another CB?

[Letters]

Off his shoulder :haha:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Looked intentional from Kos.

[Master Splinter]

Glorious assist from Sokratis :bow:.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Bring on Mesut for the ground hit volley for 3-0 again. :bow:

[SMatthews]

Alonso hits the post. Stupid FK given away.

[Letters]

Off the post and then a stupid free kick conceded

[SMatthews]

Great stuff from Laca, Ramsey and Kos.

Further proof that when we are putting the work in we don’t miss Ozil.

[Globalgunner]

Our defending is the stuff of legend

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Willian. :haha:

2-0 HT.

Great performance so far.

[Letters]

Right. 2-0 HT. Let’s not bollox this up, boys

[Letters]

Kos didn’t mean that in a million years :lol:

[Globalgunner]

Right. 2-0 HT. Let’s not bollox this up, boys

FY hasnt got a visa yet, so we should be ok

[KSE Comedy Club]

Fuck me, that is a much better performance.

It looks like Emery has set the team up properly and we are defending as a unit like we did against spurs.

Why the hell cant we do this every week???

Come on boys!! Same again for the next 45 please ����

[Mac76]

Great first half, keep it up lads

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Phil Dowd in the truck. :lol:

[Master Splinter]

Great stuff from Laca, Ramsey and Kos.

Further proof that when we are putting the work in we don’t miss Ozil.

You can't miss someone who's had little impact over his whole Arsenal career, never mind being almost nonexistent for the past season and a half.

If he wasn't the highest-paid player, no-one would care that an ineffective, peripheral squad member wasn't in the team.

If you forget the name and the fabricated media frenzy over every footballing story, the simple truth is that he barely warrants a place in the 18.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Come on Arsenal. :bow:

[Letters]

Come on Arsenal. :bow:

I concur

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Rudiger. :lol:

[SMatthews]

If you forget the name and the fabricated media frenzy over every footballing story, the simple truth is that he barely warrants a place in the 18.

His contribution in terms of raw numbers warrants a place on the bench, but he’s hardly an impact player so you’re probably right. And he can’t live with the work load expected from him every week by Emery.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Torreira knew what he was doing. :bow:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Great block from Alonso to deny Willian.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Bif needs a shit.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Superb from Lacazette bringing it out of danger there.

[SMatthews]

Close from Pedro

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Pedro. :haha:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Socrates doing a Chiellini and celebrating his challenge. :bow:

[SMatthews]

Sokratis doing his 300 impression

[McNamara That Ghost...]

We can't let that killer Alonso score again. :sick:

This is exactly what I feel on the subject too :good:

[Globalgunner]

Our defenders cant even clear a ball 5 yards, Instead they belt it up in he air. Calm down you fuckers!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Willian shot, all the venom taken out of it.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Kovacic hauled off, Barkley on to open the midfield up even more.

[SMatthews]

Should’ve been three there

[Letters]

How the piss didn’t we score then?!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Hammer it Kola FFS!

[SMatthews]

And there

[Letters]

Oh Belerin... :doh:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

How does Bellerin not provide the cross there?

[Globalgunner]

Bellerin and his stupid mustache

[SMatthews]

Kos with yet another block

[KSE Comedy Club]

I’m not sure we need Iwobi and AMN to come on?

The team are doing fine.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

What a block from Kos off Barkley's howitzer.

[Letters]

:haha: Ball in the groin.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Ramsey off, Maitland-Niles on.

Lacazette off, Iwobi on.

[Globalgunner]

I’m not sure we need Iwobi and AMN to come on?

The team are doing fine.

Bringing on inferior players is just what we need....Not

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Willian off, Bif on!

[SMatthews]

Dropped our energy levels fresh legs make sense

[GP]

:haha: Ball in the groin.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PTCEPBDekH4

[SMatthews]

Ah fuck looks like Bellerin is done

[KSE Comedy Club]

Bellerin dead

[SMatthews]

At least we can loan in a first class replacement

[Globalgunner]

Shows why those 2 changes were premature

[SMatthews]

He could be done for the season which would be a massive blow

[GP]

Shows why those 2 changes were premature

Cheers captain hindsight.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Shows why those 2 changes were premature

Not really, we've been playing AMN at right back. :lol:

[Master Splinter]

Bellerin, Monreal and Kolasinac are probably our most important attacking players after Auba considering Emery's style.

Horrible if Bellerin's out for a long period. Welbz and Holding already out for the season.

Biggest Problem At The Club.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Hazard drills it right across goal.

[Letters]

Crap! Ball goes all the way across our 6 yard box.
No Chelsea players there, thankfully

[McNamara That Ghost...]

We're above Chelsea in that stat, BT!

[Letters]

Azard hits the moon

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Hazard. :lol:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Alonso should be off.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Pedro off, Hudson-Odoi on in his farewell appearance. Maybe.

[Letters]

Who’s dead now?! :doh:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Torreira. He'll be fine.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Elneny, it happened once, it will never happen again.

[SMatthews]

We’ve won this, and with a clean sheet? Bloody hell. Back in contention for top four. Let’s keep it that way please.

[Letters]

I’m feeling far more tense than I should be at 2-0 up this late in the game :sick:

[SMatthews]

I’m feeling far more tense than I should be at 2-0 up this late in the game :sick:

We’ve got this. Chelsea have had plenty of the ball but rarely looked threatening.

[Letters]

6 minutes. Was always going to be loads, what with all the deaths.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Six added minutes. :sick:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Agent Bif. :bow:

[Letters]

We’ve got this. Chelsea have had plenty of the ball but rarely looked threatening.
Probably right but never like to jinx these things.
For all their possession they haven’t created much, don’t think Leno has made a save all half.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Barkley booked.

Send him off.

[Letters]

Bastard! He was lucky to only get a yellow for that

[SMatthews]

Get in

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Arsenal 2-0 Chelsea, FT!

We're back. :bow:

Sarriball. :haha:

[GP]

Great win!

[Letters]

Arsenal :bow:

[GP]

SWEET CAROLINE!

DO DO DO!!!

[Master Splinter]

Clean sheet :bow:.

Chelsea :haha:.
