Arsenal v Burnley, 19:15 GMT (13/12, SS Main Event)

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Well we've lost the last three times at home we start at 19:15 so why not make it four?

:rose:

[Marc Overmars]

Surely we’ll muster up something here and get the 3 points. Even if it’s a pub special which let’s face it is probably the only way we can win a PL game now.

[GP]

3-0

[Mac76]

1-1

[Globalgunner]

Monday morning obituary for Arteta and Arsenal. 0-2 home loss again

[hobson's choice]

Xhaka plays. No win

[Mac76]

Xhaka and Willian start again.

:ilt:

[Gooner23]

It seems certain players are exempt from the non-negotiables.

This really is a must win game.

[Globalgunner]

Allegri in. Chump out

[Mac76]

Allegri in. Chump out

:gp:

[Marc Overmars]

Can’t wait for all the duds to prove us wrong with a dominant win against our rivals here.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Moving up to 14th is on offer here. :cloud9:

[Niall_Quinn]

Xhaka and Bellerin. Excellent. This time it will be different.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Come on you useless turds.

[Globalgunner]

Moving up to 14th is on offer here. :cloud9:

Burnley can also move out of the bottom 3. We better look sharpish

[Globalgunner]

Our fans look like they're attending a wake keeping

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Two crosses, just another 42 to go to prove domination.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Burnley gift us a corner.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

We cross and cross all the time...get a corner...play it short. :haha:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Lacazette fluffer. :lol:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Free header for Wood, what a miss!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Gabriel pushes up, Bellerin stays back. Of course.

[Marc Overmars]

What a let off.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Bellerin shot charged down at source.

[Marc Overmars]

Xhaka can’t do anything on the fly. It’s always so telegraphed.

[Xhaka Can’t]

. Sigh

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Holding heads over.

[Mac76]

Xhaka can’t do anything on the fly. It’s always so telegraphed.

He can't do anything full stop

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Lacazette shot, saved.

[Marc Overmars]

Lacashite

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Brady booked.

[Xhaka Can’t]

This is fucking dreadful

[Marc Overmars]

Let’s just count ourselves lucky that Burnley have a worse attack than us.

2 absolutely shit teams.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

BFG looks interested. :lol:

[Marc Overmars]

Lacashite proving his worth as a no.10 there. Auba was clean through.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

0-0 HT and more shite from us.

[Marc Overmars]

The usual rubbish. Trust the process.

[Gooner23]

Lacashite proving his worth as a no.10 there. Auba was clean through.

He's really not good enough in that deeper role. Square pegs in round holes.

[Xhaka Can’t]

This truly is the dullest of times.

[WMUG]

Well, at least we're creating chances to miss rather than just not creating anything.

[Gooner23]

Arteta will be losing a lot of good will from the fans by sticking with the same bums that keep letting him down. It doesn't send a great message to the squad either.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

This truly is the dullest of times.

And teams.

[Bumble]

Wonder how many of those in attendance are wishing london was in tier 3 and thus no obligation to go to the football

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Here we go. :sleep:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Auba setting up the chance for Tierney. We're so back to front. :lol:

[Globalgunner]

Fans stunned into silence

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Auba header, easy for Pope.

[Marc Overmars]

Fans stunned into silence

It sounds like they’re still using canned noise.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Saka shot saved by Pope.

We did a thing. :faint:

[Marc Overmars]

Surely a goal coming up.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Auba shot, deflects behind.

[Niall_Quinn]

Anything happened? Are we at the commencement of new dawn yet? I decided to watch a film instead. Good film though.

[Xhaka Can’t]

Anything happened? Are we at the commencement of new dawn yet? I decided to watch a film instead. Good film though.

Well, you clearly didn’t watch The Gentlemen.

What a turd of a film.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Fight fight fight!

[Marc Overmars]

Billy big bollocks Xhaka

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Anything happened? Are we at the commencement of new dawn yet? I decided to watch a film instead. Good film though.

We're just arranging another slot for clear the air talks.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Xhaka is going to get sent off here. Fucking idiot.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Xhaka sent off. Utter turd.

[Bumble]

Plus side xhaka wont play for 3 games

[Marc Overmars]

Wow what a wanker.

[Gooner23]

How many times can one player let the club down so much.

[Marc Overmars]

How many times can one player let the club down so much.

He’ll be straight back in after his ban.

Cunt.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Lacazette off, Ceballos on.

[Xhaka Can’t]

Straight red. Violent conduct.

He’s out for three games!!!

Buy the ref a beer.

[Bumble]

In the good old days going down to ten just meant the game got a bit closer.

Xhaka has to go.

[Marc Overmars]

Even without VAR, why the fuck would put your hands on an opponent anyway, what are you going to do, beat the shit out of them in front millions of witnesses?

Braindead.

[Bumble]

Luckily burnley score less than we do. So still expecting a clean sheet

[Gooner23]

I don't want to see him in an Arsenal shirt again, utter twat.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Auba shot, saved.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Mee hammers it, Leno saves.

[Xhaka Can’t]

This game feels like it’s gone on longer than a five day Test match.

[Gooner23]

Desperately trying to keep some faith in Mikel but starting Xhaka over Ceballos was a terrible decision.

[Globalgunner]

Hopefully this is the last we see of both Xhaka and Arteta.
Bellerin Willian and Mustafi too

[Xhaka Can’t]

Desperately trying to keep some faith in Mikel but starting Xhaka over Ceballos was a terrible decision.

Not firing Xhaka into the Sun was a terrible decision.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Bellerin booked, misses the Southampton game. :bow:

[Marc Overmars]

Bellerin suspended for the next game too.

More good news.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Elneny, WTF?

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Elneny lucky to only get a yellow.

[Marc Overmars]

What is wrong with our fucking morons?

[McNamara That Ghost...]

AUBA OG. :haha:

[Marc Overmars]

0-1 :haha:

Pathetic.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

At least he is back in goalscoring form.

Bellerin off, AMN on.

[Marc Overmars]

Auba. :haha:

Horrific.

[Gooner23]

The players have thrown the towel in, a big fuck you to Arteta and that's probably him out by Xmas.

[Bumble]

The players have thrown the towel in, a big fuck you to Arteta and that's probably him out by Xmas.

Lose this and he has to go. The players dont have a clue. Elneny very lucky. But the players heads arent right. The manager bears that responsibility. Much easier to change manager than 15-20 players

[Marc Overmars]

Lose this and he has to go. The players dont have a clue. Elneny very lucky. But the players heads arent right. The manager bears that responsibility. Much easier to change manager than 15-20 players

He has to go regardless. Totally out of his depth and isn’t getting anything from the players anymore.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Willian off now, Nketiah on.

[GP]

Arteta :wave:

Thnks fr th mmrs but it's time to say goodbye

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Can't wait for our clear the air talks again.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Saka is trying. Poor sod.

[Globalgunner]

Vampires everywhere. You need crosses.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

How many crosses? Think we're a few shy of 44.

[Marc Overmars]

Burnley are an awful team.

I know we’re shite but losing to this rabble at home suggests the situation is worse than we actually think it is.

[Globalgunner]

We may not win another game this season. Unless........

[McNamara That Ghost...]

At least we have some fans to unleash the boos there.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Nketiah. :lol:

[LDG]

Jesus wept

[McNamara That Ghost...]

0-1 FT. Utterly utterly hopeless.

[Marc Overmars]

This is very bad.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Fuck off with the clapping.

[GP]

Bye Felicia

[Niall_Quinn]

So if I followed the thread correctly, both Xhaka and Bellerin are out for the next match?

Finally some progress.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Pepe returns. :bow:
