Burnley v Arsenal, 12:30 GMT (06/03, BT Sport 1)

[McNamara That Ghost...]

ESR is being assessed but would very much doubt he'll start in this, would on Thursday though I imagine.

Have to beat these shitkickers. Losing to them at home. :lol:

[Mac76]

3-0 Rodriguez hatter

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Burnley: Pope, Lowton, Tarkowski, Mee, Taylor, Gudmundsson, Westwood, Brownhill, McNeil, Vydra, Wood.
Subs: Brady, Peacock-Farrell, Stephens, Pieters, Bardsley, Long, Dunne, Benson, Rodriguez.

Arsenal: Leno, Chambers, David Luiz, Pablo Mari, Tierney, Partey, Xhaka, Saka, Odegaard, Willian, Aubameyang.
Subs: Ryan, Bellerin, Holding, Gabriel, Elneny, Ceballos, Pepe, Martinelli, Lacazette.

[Gooner23]

Guessing Cedric is injured, not even on the bench. Chambers an extra CB for defending set pieces makes sense.

[GP]

AUBA!!!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

AUBAMEYANG!!!!

Pope chucks it in. :haha:

[GP]

Willian assist :lol:

[Mac76]

YES!!!!

Dyke :pal:

Willian :bow:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Willian. :bow:

Always knew he would come good.

[Mac76]

Xhaka slowing our attacks down as usual,

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Auba shot, blocked.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Lowton nearly turned Partey's scooped pass in to an assist. :bow:

[Mac76]

great ball in from Partey then

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Saka, what a miss!

[Mac76]

how did he miss?

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Westwood smacks it but never likely to go in.

[Mac76]

Xhaka's just awful - swap him for Ceballos and we'd be putting them under much more pressure

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Wood shot, quite the scuffer.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Partey smacks it but over.

One day.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Willian back with the pub touches. :bow:

[Mac76]

Partey smacks it but over.

One day.

:doh:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Pope comes out to deny Auba, just about.

[GP]

Great ball. Auba almost in again.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Saka fucked it up.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Burnley 1-1 Arsenal, Wood.

Xhaka well and truly fucks it up.

[Letters]

Oh fuck off...

:doh:

[Mac76]

Burnley 1-1 Arsenal, Wood.

Xhaka well and truly fucks it up.

told you the guy's the weak link in this team

[Gooner23]

We just keep shooting ourselves in the foot

[Mac76]

Xhaka keeps shooting ourselves in the foot

quite true ;)

[Marc Overmars]

Pathetic :haha:

[dazthegooner]

This is why we're midtable.

[Slacker]

You have to blame the manager for presiding over a team who instead of running at this bunch of shit kickers just told them to sit back and take it easy. One thing Wenger did do in the early days was kill a game off early and not sit back and fuck about. That and playing liability players. I wish he would fuck off.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

1-1 HT. Started well, should've scored the second, slowed it down and then gifted a goal.

We're back!

[Mac76]

1-1 HT. Started well, should've scored the second, slowed it down and then gifted a goal.

We're back!

pretty much

such a bright start, i really thought we'd push on from that first goal but Xhaka made sure we messed up

[Gooner23]

Felt inevitable after not taking those 2 Saka chances

[LDG]

Absolutely shit from knacka

Twat. I’ve had enough of his pedestrian attitude

[Mac76]

some people are blaming Leno but frankly those situations will happen and you need to be able to trust someone to receive the ball and not give a soft pass to the opposing teams' striker, Xhaka could've hit that anywhere but he gave it straight to Wood

[Mac76]

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Odegaard shoots, Pope saves.

[Mac76]

decent effort from Odegaard

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Nice touch from Saka but the shot is blocked.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Saka booked.

Of course.

[Mac76]

it was pretty clumsy by saka tbf

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Decent ball in from Chambers but nobody up with it.

[Mac76]

looks like Laca coming on

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Odegaard off, Lacazette on.

Something had to change. Utter shite this half.

Taylor off injured, Pieters on.

[Mac76]

Odegaard's been disappointing in this game

[Mac76]

i'd also swap WIllian for Martinelli

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Saka needs to come off before we get another stupid red.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Gudmundsson off, Brady on.

[Mac76]

chambo puts it into row z :lol:

[Mac76]

pepe coming on :bow:

[Mac76]

that's no pel, f**k off Dyke

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Willian off, Pepe on.

[Mac76]

McNeill :haha:

[Mac76]

Xhaka - WTF?!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Lacazette with some impressive screaming.

[Gooner23]

Its a real common theme under Arteta where we have good spells but don't punish teams, and then just completely back off

[Marc Overmars]

Lacashite screaming like he’s being murdered.

[Mac76]

Auba's had two touches in the second half...

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Handball?

[Marc Overmars]

Why isn’t that a penalty? :unsure:

[GP]

How is that not? :lol:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

VAR ignores it for some reason.

[Mac76]

pel surely?

[Mac76]

seriously wtf?!

[Letters]

Would have been a bullshit penalty but plenty have been given for less this season.

[Mac76]

Dyke would literally explode if that happened to Bumley

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Pieters nearly scored. :doh:

[LDG]

Fucking bullshit.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Leno saves from Wood.

Wood needs Xhaka to feed him.

[Marc Overmars]

Are we going to do anything in this half?

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Partey off, Ceballos on.

Xhaka stays on. :haha:

[Mac76]

Are we going to do anything in this half?

lose?

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Pepe, what a miss!

[GP]

Pepe what the fuk?

[Marc Overmars]

Pepe :haha:

Fuck sake.

[Letters]

Pepe what the fuk?

Indeed. FFS :doh:
We have tried so hard not to win this :ilt:

[Mac76]

Xhaka stays on. :haha:

Willian lent him his photos of Arteta and the donkey

[Mac76]

pepe :ilt:

[Marc Overmars]

Penalty!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Pelanty!!!

[GP]

Pel and a red!

[GP]

VAR will overturn it.

Because of course it will.

[Marc Overmars]

Oh that will be overturned?

[McNamara That Ghost...]

That will be overturned.

[Marc Overmars]

Pepe should have buried it anyway.

Shite.

[Gooner23]

We can only blame ourselves for dropping points here, not good enough. Proper mid table team these days.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Four added minutes.

[Mac76]

4 minutes to go and Xhaka still playing sideways passes

[Letters]

Unbelievable :doh:

[Marc Overmars]

Oh my god how haven’t we scored.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

1-1 FT. Fuck off.

[Marc Overmars]

Couldn’t even beat Burnley this season.

[Mac76]

f**k, so close to scoring at the end

should've won though

[Gooner23]

Fuck off. That ball bag Dyche will be chuffed with that point the wanker.

[IBK]

Shit game, shit pitch, shit Xhaka cock up, shit VAR penalty decision, shit team line, up shit subs (apart from Pepe), shit result.

[Letters]

We pretty much drew with ourselves today :doh:

[LDG]

What shit! I hate football

[Mac76]

What shit! I hate football

:gp:
