Nottingham Forest v Arsenal, (09/01), 17:10 GMT, ITV1.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

We're in all white to bring attention to the amount of knife crime and teenagers killed.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Nottingham Forest: Samba, Spence, Worrall, McKenna, Cook, Garner, Colback, Yates, Johnson, Zinckernagel, Davis.
Subs: Horvath, Figueiredo, Grabban, Carvalho, Bong, Cafu, Silva, Ojeda, Taylor.

Arsenal: Leno, Cedric, White, Holding, Tavares, Lokonga, Patino, Saka, Odegaard, Martinelli, Nketiah.
Subs: Ramsdale, Tierney, Chambers, Mari, Lacazette, Kolasinac, Biereth, Salah-Eddine, Hutchinson.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Xhaka has Covid.

[Mac76]

3-0 Davis hatter

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Bong on the bench for Forest.

Sure he is a hit.

[Globalgunner]

Xhaka has Covid.

Covid has an upside?. Who knew?

That being said, this team does look more than a bit underpowered. Could we be taking the opposition a bit lightly?

[Mac76]

Covid has an upside?. Who knew?

:lol:

[Mac76]

They just showed nketiah's name under a picture of Tavares :lol:

Now Matterface has said Sambi was Saka :haha:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Scuffer from White.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Covid has an upside?. Who knew?

That being said, this team does look more than a bit underpowered. Could we be taking the opposition a bit lightly?

I don't think so. If anything I'm surprised to see Saka, Martinelli and Odegaard all starting.

[Mac76]

I get the white shirts but... white numbers? :blink:

[Mac76]

Holding :lol:

[Marc Overmars]

Tavares is shite.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

I get the white shirts but... white numbers? :blink:

Wouldn't be very all white without it.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Tavares is injured it seems.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Tavares hauled off, Tierney on.

[Marc Overmars]

Tavares :haha:

[Mac76]

Arteta shows Tavares up now - how many players does he want to write off?

[Gooner23]

He was having a mare though. 5 subs in the FA Cup.

[Mac76]

Holding's having a mare too - does he get subbed as well?

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Nketiah. :lol:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Pub football. :bow:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

0-0 HT.

That was bloody awful.

[Mac76]

0-0 HT - pretty ordinary so far

[Gooner23]

Holding's having a mare too - does he get subbed as well?

Who you going to bring on? Mari is awful and Chambers has barely played this season. Tierney for Tavares is a clear upgrade.

[Gooner23]

I agree Tavares wasn't the only one having a howler though. The back ups are miles away from the 1st choice players.

[Ollie the Optimist]

Cedric was awful and worse then Tavares imo. Arteta didn’t hook him

[Gooner23]

Probably didn't help Nuno he was right in front of the coaches giving the ball away. That back pass to Leno's head was quite impressive!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

We can't bring on Tomiyasu though.

Tavares was dreadful and it looks like that's a consistent thought across forums.

[Gooner23]

We can't bring on Tomiyasu though.

Tavares was dreadful and it looks like that's a consistent thought across forums.

Yeah exactly, I'm sure Arteta would like to make more changes but we just don't have the options.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Nketiah could've done...anything there really.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Leno saves. :bow:

[Gooner23]

Nketiah could've done...anything there really.

If he's not poaching goals, doesn't offer much else.

[Globalgunner]

Holdings hire transplant is the best I've seen. From a distance that is.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Nketiah. :haha:

What a miss.

[Mac76]

Great cross from Saka, then Nketiah f**** it up

[dazthegooner]

Withdraw the contract offer:good:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Great save from Leno.

[Mac76]

Forest could have had a pel then

[Gooner23]

This is awful, we look miles off it tonight.

[Mac76]

We really are dreadful today

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Clearly we need other changes.

Lacazette has to come on.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Davis off, Grabban on.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Nketiah. :haha:

[Mac76]

Nketiah:haha:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

My direct line to Arteta has worked.

Patino off, Lacazette on. :bow:

[Ollie the Optimist]

These type of performances have been common under Arteta’s reign.

At what point does the club start looking at the manager rather than blaming individual performances.

He either cannot coach or manage the players properly

[Mac76]

My direct line to Arteta has worked.

Patino off, Lacazette on. :bow:

You didn't tell him to sub Eddie then?

[Globalgunner]

Nketiah will be missed just as much as Joe Willock and Average Maitland-Niles

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Nketiah's ability to bobble one in off his thigh after a double deflection against lower league opposition is second to none. Has to stay on for that reason.

[LDG]

This is fucking awlful

[Mac76]

Cedric :doh:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Martinelli as cynical as it gets. :bow:

[Mac76]

We should buy Spence IMO

[Gooner23]

We should buy Spence IMO

Was just thinking that, levels above Cedric.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

We're fucked now, Cafu is on.

[Globalgunner]

Idris Elba:scarf:
Hiemdall can see us winning this....on pens?

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Fuck Spence.

[Gooner23]

Idris Elba:scarf:
Hiemdall can see us winning this....on pens?

Can he do a job in midfield?

[McNamara That Ghost...]

1-0 Forest. :lol:

Oh dear.

[Ollie the Optimist]

Sack him now

[Marc Overmars]

We’ve been absolutely shit.

[Mac76]

Totally fair, they've been the better team

[Letters]

You know who I blame? WMUG.

[Marc Overmars]

We still have Kolasinac? WTF.

[Globalgunner]

We still have Kolasinac? WTF.

Still on 100kpw too

Hard to sell shite

[Mac76]

Foul throw:lol:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Out of the FA Cup. :bow:

That was so bad.

[Mac76]

Horrible performance, total shite

[Globalgunner]

Arteta OUT OUT OUT

[Marc Overmars]

Pathetic result and performance. Total waste of time, could have played for another 90 mins and not been any closer to scoring.

Must get past Liverpool now.

[Gooner23]

Really worried about the next couple of games after that, squad painfully lacking strength in depth.

[Ollie the Optimist]

No shots on target against a championship team

[Marc Overmars]

Really worried about the next couple of games after that, squad painfully lacking strength in depth.

Yep, season could be done by the end of the month if we’re not careful. Huge few games ahead.

[Gooner23]

If there was an offer on the table from Athletico for Cedric before the game, there won't be one now.

[21_GOONER_SALUTE]

No shots on target against a championship team

Wengerball 3.0 :lol:

So no European football and now no more FA cup football... lets see what excuse some will make for us not finishing in the CL slots this season.

[Globalgunner]

No shots on target against a championship team

Arteta channeling his inner Wenger

[Gooner23]

Yep, season could be done by the end of the month if we’re not careful. Huge few games ahead.

Just got to hope Gabriel, Tomi, ESR and Xhaka are back for the spuds game.

[Mac76]

If anyone with a pair of eyes still thinks Eddie is good enough they need shooting

[dazthegooner]

If anyone with a pair of eyes still thinks Eddie is good enough they need shooting

:gp:

[Mac76]

Must get past Liverpool now.

:haha:

[Niall_Quinn]

At least they dressed the part. Don't change it, it suits them.

[selassie]

:haha:

:lol:
