Eddie Howes Champions League Certainty Mags vs a whiny bastards gaggle of boring, strikerless nerds who we've beaten three times already this season, arsenal.

You may as well bring Osula on and put Gordon up front to chase long balls 

They're able to defend very high up knowing that Wilson even with space ahead is no threat. Barnes apart from one run and shot is struggling to make an impact. Gordon is but the one time he got properly in behind them Wilson couldn't keep up to get on the end of the centre ball.

Very good performance overall though, could easily have scored a couple

Aye better team, better chances. But we can't afford a second half like last week.

Looking at the table, I think a point here really is valuable.would mean a draw on the last day of the season, Forest can't feasibly catch us and Chelsea would need to beat them by 3 goals? 

 

Ffs, just realised I'm looking at a dynamic table.

Leave the table calculations to the spreadsheet wankers.

Lewis Skelly has shown exactly why he wasn’t nominated for young player of the year.

 

He's also only played half a Prem season too.  That's totally bypassed the genius Neville.

If we had Isak out there, instead of Wilson, we’d be 2 up. 

 

Wilson totally useless, we’d be better off with a static post to play off. 

[Ayatollah Hermione 15323]

Has been a solid half but if not for Raya, we’d be 2-0 up. Could argue the same with Pope for us but of all the times for that goofy bastard to have a good game, it’s today 

[toonotl 3781]

We’ve done enough to be in front. I don’t think much needs to change for the start of the second half. Hopefully we can just take the next chance.

 

Tino jumping into midfield is screwing Arsenal. They don’t know what to do. Shame that when Tino got the ball in space neither does he.  

 

But altogether a very good half. Just need that bit of composure to get the goal. As off the pace Wilson has looked at certain moments, if a chance falls to him he’s the most likely to take it.

But he did about 6 head jerking feints with the ball on the one play earlier, surely that alone is worthy of a nomination for something, or at the very least a tourette syndrome check.

I think you’ll see us just sitting-in in the second half. We normally blow our load early.

Get Osula on. Wilson looks and moves like Micky Quinn at his worst.

Not a bad performance, but I am a nervous wreck.

I’m zen as fuck 

[Toonpack 12417]

Like several games this season we should be out of sight, that said we are fucking good mind.

Mickey Quinn was (self-proclaimed) at least fastest player over 2 yards.

 

I feel for Callum. I suspect a championship team might take him but it’s one injury too many.

Aye, part of the reason I’m relaxed going into games like this. Howe has genuinely made us a top team and we look like one today. Arteta can play us down all he wants but the way they’re playing confirms that he thinks of us that way too

[Gemmill 53457]

Saliba going off at half time doesn't hurt us. 

[wykikitoon 24124]

Saliba off?

Some corner routine that from Arsenal. All the way back to Raya. No wonder their set piece coach has his own mural outside the ground. 

[Dougle 3901]

Are we still in the changing rooms for fucks sake

[Holden McGroin 8185]

At what minute do you think we’ll make it out our half?

[wykikitoon 24124]

Tino final ball has been shite.
