Surprised Arsenal look pretty light after a few first team injuries. It's going to be tough with the level of CL games in the week, need a really strong squad. I actually think we have a little bit more depth in midfield and attack than them. Their first team is excellent though no doubt but the best squads usually win the titles.

They have EFL this week - Weds v Brentford away

There are arsenal fans who think they know football who actually rate Jesus and Nketiah over son.

(I'm looking at you, nonce on the wing and SA gooner)

We'll see how the season goes but I really do feel that Arsenal overachieved a lot last season. They will still be up there top 4 but can't see them threaten City.

Every Arsenal fan I know predicted a min of a 3 goal win. Be it 4-1 or 5-2 or 3-0. Figured they’d absolutely turn us over.

Haha.
This is what happens when little kids listen to muppets like Merson, Bent and Keown and assume these pundits know what they’re talking about.
Not 1 gooner I know suggested anything more than a 1 goal win, which is what most of them went for.
It’s funny as fuck watching them slowly realise they’re not as good as they’ve been led to believe.

Their fans probably know who Vicario, Porro, van de Ven and Udogie are now.
So many of them laughed of them being compared and prefered to theirs leading up to the game.

They had a very fortunate start to last season and rode the crest of that wave, garnering confidence...

Right up until they bottled it.

Always thought it could adversely affect them and the belief just isn't there for me from their players.

If/When they are on the end of a couple of bad results/performances, i can see things turning sour fast.

Arteta just said 2 points dropped
They dominated chances and possession 🤔
Goonies are definitely watching a different game to us stats say arteta is full of shit surprise 😮 surprise 😮
Does he realise that you have to have more of the ball to dominate possession?

Hopefully. I think there was a bit of similarity to the momentum Leicester had when they won the title. This time City proved too strong and got enough points to overtake Arsenal. Now City have started stronger and Arsenal are not sitting at the top early so will be different I'm sure.

All the excuses coming out now.
Injuries to key players, oh but we had such a tough CL match in midweek, not used to playing teams that don't defend in low-blocks, the sun was in our eyes...etc

I fucking hate that Lego headed twat, I’d paid good money to see him chinned.

Hopefully Le Arse's dressing room will start feeling like that when things go pear shaped for them again. And they already have started to slowly... He got away with it 2/3 years ago, he won't again.

Love the excuses some of their nitwits will make. Objectively, they should have beaten us on paper. In reality, it was a fair draw. They relied on an OG and an unfortunate pen to score both goals. We earned ours. And aside from gifting resting sour face a chance, they hardly created anything.

Oh, and I never used to have any issues with Saka. But after his dart throwing shithousery and trying to get Udogie sent off at the end. Thought he was better than that bush league behavior. Apparently not.

Karma. Maybe don’t act like a bitch next time you score. Try to celebrate without being a mocking little muppet.
The dart throwing was just banter with Maddison, who gives it to others so should be able to take it. And we'd do the same trying to get someone sent off who was on a booking? Swings and roundabouts you know.

One of the most important lessons I've taught to my son is that even though they get paid to talk about the game, the majority of pundits know fuck all about it.
Just because someone makes it sound like they know what they're talking about, doesn't mean that they actually do.
And thankfully, they regularly offer plenty of examples for me to teach him with.

I think that's a valuable life lesson for the lad. 😁
