Exactly mate, as Kevin Keegan said "I will love it" if Dyche and his horrible ba***rd players get relegated ;-)

Harry Kane doesn't look interested after his non-multi millions transfer in the summer.


Arsenal winning a match against a poor Spurs doesn't equal Arsenal are any good to me, still think Arteta will be booted this season.

Kane needs to be careful with his sulking or his value's gonna plummet and Levy doesn't sell at knockdown prices :)

Spurs were pants in the first half, Arsenal only had to play ok to boss it, which they did. Game’s like this give me a little encouragement for the season ahead.

He has definitely spat his dummy out, :lol: missing out on being an even more multi-millionaire.

I get that he's technically good, can be the focal point for an attack in that he reads play well and brings others in, and he's a good finisher.

But he has zero movement, and you see this for Spurs and England. Son does all his running at Spurs, and England have plenty of runners.

If he can't, or won't run, then how can he get into scoring positions?

You've seen recently that as good as Raphinha, or James, are, if nobody's in the right place who do they cross to?

An online BBC sports segment said “ Arteta. The new Venga?”

Someone must have a real proper funny bone because 3 games ago he was the worst manger in the league.

Arsenal midfielder Granit Xhaka will be out of action for three months due to a knee injury sustained in Sunday's victory against Tottenham Hotspur.

Arsenal said the Switzerland captain, 29, has a "significant injury" to his medial knee ligament.

A dirty sod, at least he won't be crippling any of our remaining fit players in the EFL cup match during October.

The gooners were extremely poor vs a vibriant Palace side who were unfortunately to concede with the very last kick of the game.

Questions have to be asked about Arteta's management?

I think we missed a trick not landing Conor Gallagher, looking an influential midfielder for Palace.

In the end, a good outcome for Leeds

I thought the same about Connor Gallagher 64, gets stuck in, wins the ball and he's off. Although I thought he chose Palace over Leeds?

He did Swannie, just what our midfield needed, but hey-ho.

Still feels like a missed opportunity after we were linked with him all summer.

Tbf those of us who were against the Gallagher signing could have never known that we would then offer £4mil for a Championship midfielder and that was it.

I will never for as long as i live understand what the club were playing at regarding our cm this summer just gone

Also how foolish and arrogant do Radz and Kinnear look now?

Radz with his petty "Forshaw" response and twitter and Kinnear with his "we did 2 years business" line, how astoundingly arrogant.

The first 45 minutes was the best performance of our season imo!

Excellent display from the Gooners

Let's hope the foxes continue their erratic form.

Arsenal have found a bit of form of late, sneaking into the top five after their 1-0 victory over Watford.

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang has been stripped of the Captains armband after his latest disciplinary breach.

He was dropped vs Southampton and now he has been stripped of the Captaincy and won't play vs Southampton.

He apparently arrived back late from an agreed period of absence.

This isn't his first discipline issue, he was dropped from the North London Derby squad back in 2020.

This may all sound a bit trivial but Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang is one of the highest paid players in Premier league history and was given the biggest contract to a player his age back in 2020 (£55million over 3 years).

Yes and the picture clearly shows only 4 arsenal players at the ref, 5 United players when we got fined, 6 chelsea !!!
So, the moral is, when you remonstrate with the referee in future, make sure only 6 players, no more, no less charge at him.
