Attendance: 59, 262
That's not what it looked like judging by the empty seats. That's another problem with a boycott. Even if the stadium is empty, most of the tickets have been sold and the club would have no problems announcing a huge attendance and listening to it echo around the place.
Season ticket renewals have happened now so the damage has been done now. Needed a mass boycott in the summer and refusal to renew. If that hasn't happened, and I guess it hasn't, then it doesn't matter what we do or don't do this season. They've got the money.
Lacazette is a such a smooth goal scorer. In every game he's played for us this season he's either scored or went really close (one wrongly disallowed at Stoke an he hit the post against Chelsea at Wembley) and his goal yesterday was pure class.
If we can play to his strengths and supply him properly then i could see him getting 30 goals this season.
Alexis was top dog, we finish 5th.Quote:

IT is obviously not as black/white as I wrote it, but what you wrote is even more non-nuanced, and is media regurgitated drivel.
ON top of that, no player should be demanding a move away from this club, and fans who support that are clowns.
Firstly despite his higher assist rate Ozil went missing in just as many big games in 15/16 as he did in 16/17Quote:

It's not about supporting Sanchez it's about understanding exactly why he wants to leave, if you have any ambition as a player there is simply no reason for staying at Arsenal presently. We should have sold him off in the summer, but I fail to see how our failure to do so is his fault.
Fine, but he had better not sulk around the place or not bother. He's a professional footballer earning silly money, he had better try while he's still with us.Quote:

On the other hand 'Pool lost 5-0 (Mane sending off acknowledged) so what does that say about us?
Alexis looked eager when he came on and clearly Wenger knows he will always put everything out there on the pitch
My biggest issue was with thw substitution of Welbz - he could barely hit a barn door next season but was putting it away in this game one way or the other (i agree the first was fluky) so i'd have left him on in the hope he got a hatter - think what would that do to his confidence
At least you admit what you've written is non nuanced. You can’t talk as if Emirates has said something nonsensical and make the above statement.Quote:

Last season we finished on 74 points and finished 5th. See what I mean?
Best bit about that video is Claude's joke at the end, very funny indeed :lolQuote:
