Match Reaction vs Forest (away, League Cup).

Only saw the highlights. Well done Perez - nice slide rule pass to play Akpom through on goal for the penalty, took the penalty very well (no chance for the keeper even though he dived the right way), great tenacity and strength for his second goal and a lovely one-two to set up Ox for the last goal.

If there is no correlation between the result and Wengers contract, then I hope we smash the living daylights out of the scums.

Even if we get relegated there's no guarantee that Wenger won't be offered a new contract :lol:

we are on fire.... 2 consecutive away games scoring 4 goals. well played everyone. time for some back slapping and ole-ing at the ground.

Who are you and what have you done with Zim? :sulk:

What do you do with a problem like Xhakaboom?

:haha: I was going to say the same thing. By far the most positive thing I've ever seen him post.

Hopefully the Chelsea game will cheer him...down and he'll be back to usual. Bit worried about him tbh.

There is none. The board appear to have a rather long-term view of matters, don't they?

No way will they try to sneak a new contract through this early. Even the disconnected leeches in the boardroom will realise they have to tread very carefully on this. It has been a very ordinary start to the season. The performances are poor, leaving aside an isolated cup outing against lower league opposition. If we have reached the stage at this club where we consider a win over the chavs to be such a landmark that the manager gets a new contract then we are small time. He's going to need to do more than clawing back a toehold in his embarrassing record.

Tread carefully? We're 4th, just en the damn season now!
