He is playing. Done some good stuff. Goal disallowed when just centimetres offside.

He's a natural predator with skill and pace to burn... Didn't really get a chance here as Paddy dominated selection, but he's continued to improve since.

Arsenal apparently are considering an offer to extend.

Yes Eddie scored in the offside/penalty incident, looking sharp as a whistle right now

Apparently Nketiah has been on the Gooners bench 40 times coming on as a sub on only 14 occasions.

20 shots in the first-half, good attacking game.

Think he stays if they get Champions league football and some kind of guarantee he's not coming off the bench every week

The problem with bringing Nketiah back is that he wants to leave Arsenal only if he can't get playing time. They seem to be giving him that now ahead of Lacazette and it's paying dividends.

If he came back to Leeds would he start ahead of Bamford? I don't think so.

But Marsch may play two upfront. Not that I really expect him to come back.

He would for me, just think he's better in every department.

Arsenal just give away a stupid handball in the box. Penalty awarded to Scum.

Was there a reason Ronaldo didn't take that?

He'd forgotten his gel so couldn't pretty up his hair when the camera focussed on him for the penalty ;)

Bruno Fernandez tries to get himself sent off but the match officials say 'no mate, you stay out there and suffer'.

How does fernandive get away with that tackle as a yellow ?
It was that late he committed it at Highbury.
