Liked him as a player but his actions on the sidelines are just ridiculous, he should have been booked for trying to block De Bruyne and should be told to get back into his technical zone as he seems to spend most of the time out of it and encroaching onto the pitch.
Exactly this, JM was booked for less than that, first Klopp runs on t' pitch to get PS sent off, now arteta is kicking the ball away from a player, both outside their technical areas, when, if ever will officials get a grip.
Both above managers are an embarrassment and ought to be brought to book.

After a mini-blip where the gooners only acquired one point in their three games against Everton, Brentford & Citeh, Arsenal have won six consecutive games, scoring nineteen goals.

It wouldn’t surprise me if they dropped points against us, we’ve buggered up their title chances a few times over the years.
I don’t see us winning but definitely capable of a draw if we get lucky.

Arsenal have won their last seven games, scoring 23 goals.

The gooners have scored four or more in a match seven times this season.

Arsenal have chucked away a two goal lead at West Ham & Liverpool in their last two away games which has tightened up the top two places, with a visit to the Etihad in ten days time, I suspect it's squeaky bum time for Gooner fans.

Man City well odds on with the bookies now, I wouldn’t back them at 4/9 but it looks ominous for Arsenal now.

Arsenal need to avoid defeat at the Etihad to stay in the race for the title.

Arsenal still hanging in there!

What a signing Ødegaard has been for the gooners?

13 goals this season

Arsenal's first defeat since January vs Brighton, Man City the only other team to beat the gooners at the Etihad in the PL this season.

It looks like they will loose out to City which is a shame. Would liked to have seen them win it, though i have nothing against City. A great team to watch when in full flow.

City for me. I dislike the Kroenke family with a passion.

Depends if you're an animal lover or not I suppose. Kroenke is a big game hunter killing innocent Lions, Tigers etc etc. The vile bloke even makes TV revenue out if the killings. Has his own TV programme showing how he takes 'hunters' (let's call them cowards with a big gun) for large amounts of money and shows how they kill innocent animals. He wanted to bring his sick TV series to Britain, but Arsenal fans 'shot' that idea down in flames straight away.

I hope the Kroenke's win bog all. Despicable lot! :x

Kroenke is practically revered here in Denver. Owns the Nuggets (NBA), Avalanche (NHL), Rapids (MLS), and the local lacrosse team (Mammoth). Also owns the Rams and his wife’s family (Walton family of Wal-Mart fame) owns the Broncos. The guys is a sports mogul that just took daddy’s money and kept throwing it into professional sports. But those in the know can’t stand the guy. Count me as one of those…

I knew he owned a few sports ventures including the Rams Joe. Glad you find the guy 'unlikeable' (shall we say)
I did see somewhere that his son has become one of the heirarchy at Arsenal, is he as bad as his Father?
