Burnley 0-1 Arsenal - Match Reaction

[Master Splinter]

Most boring training session ever.

But 3 points and an 8th win in a row.

Coquelin was excellent again.

Koscielny must have understandably gone to sleep at half-time because he was playing like a sleepwalking maniac in the second half.

Burnley crowd :haha:.

[Marc Overmars]

8 straight fucking wins. :scarf:

A dreadful game but we didn't need to get out of 2nd gear as Burnley are rubbish.

Now we can enjoy Wembley, hopefully make the cup final again and in the meantime watch our rivals fight it out.

Then it's Chelsea. Beat them and then I may start to dream.

[Niall_Quinn]

Boremeister WUMger teases out another three points without any of his GPS vests getting out of the green zone. It ain't football but we're 8 from 8 and have overhauled both the mancs. Bitter sweet.

[The Emirates Gallactico]

Comfortable tbh. Probably should have tried to put it to bed earlier but Burnley didn't seriously threaten ..... only a few half decent chances. Always felt we had another gear to go up if we needed to. Burnley worked their socks of to keep it at 1.

Burnley crowd can FOAD. Perpetual fouling which they were rightly called out for.

Now for QPR to do the business tomorrow. :pray:

We did fall over pretty easily. But considering...

Khaleesi :bow:

...every other fucker does it I guess you play the game. Thought Giroud put himself about really well and easily matched the two trolls who were tasked with catching and cooking him.

[selassie]

Comfortable enough, could and should have finished them off with a 2nd goal late one. Coquelin was a beast again, nothing gets past him.

1 Chelsea 30 37 70
2 Arsenal 32 31 66
3 Man Utd 31 27 62
4 Man City 31 33 61

Coq was impressive again. Alexis put in another workmanlike performance. The rest were still in bed.

Bellerin was poor, but what happened to his support on that side.

Shit game. 3 points. Can't really complain.

[Gooner23]

I like that Coq is learning as well. A few times he stayed on his feet today where as earlier in season he was diving in a lot.

Average performance but nice to keep the run going. Come on QPR!

Reckon it's time to get the St Totteringham's Day bunting down from the loft and give it a wash.

Ramsey is not a right mid, you could tell from his post match interview he doesn't want to be there.

Wenget, just play players in their right positions ffs!

Same here. It was fun putting it up and taking it down for the first decade. But the novelty wore off in the second decade.

Sean Dike is an upsidedown head potato face weeble.

They sacked him, he beat them at their ground, they donated 3 points to Villas survival...is it a surprise :dance:

Easier to leave it up all year.

This is why you should always read on before reacting.

He never listens. :sulk:

Ozil :cloud9:

Only saw the highlights but couple of fantastic moments for him. The backheel for Sanchez and the ball for Ramsey

NQ still adores Arteta though. Let's keep him as the face of the company but away from the pitch.

Utter shit article though.

[Marc Overmars]

People are paid to write that shit? Dear me.

[Master Splinter]

The whole media world is just WUM eat WUM and attention whoring.

It's exacerbated in football because football is a juvenile circus on every level.

[Niall_Quinn]

Start of article:


There is a handy guide to work out how many points a team merits, and that is the number of games that teams have won, drawn and lost, and those results are also awarded on merit due to the number of goals scored compared to the various opponents.

End of article:


It imagines Chelsea and Arsenal are rivals. They are not. Chelsea’s rivals are Manchester City, their equals in money and in future prospects. Potentially, you can add United to that if they continue their spending.

LOL. I like these articles because they remind me what a gift it is to be able to write coherently.

Eh?

He's a spud. The article if you could even call it that is an abomination.

I just googled the guy, having never heard of him. His writing is abysmal.

You still have to give him some credit for having his big breakthrough moment here on GW. The pinnacle of his career, and we're all part of it.

[Marc Overmars]

I'm sure there are good writers out there but morons like that are why I very rarely read or watch anything opinion-related to do with Arsenal or football in general anymore.
