Arsenal V Bournemouth, Oct 6, 1400 KO

[fakeyank]

Will be a bore fest with the 'first team' starting. Cant wait to see boring uninspiring sideways passes with Xhaka stinking up the place.

2-1 win for us.

[Marc Overmars]

Another almighty slog I'd have thought.

Hopefully Emery gives some of the impressive youngsters a deserved start. Along with Holding, Bellerin and Tierney.

don't hold your breath

the fact he played them all for 90 mins last night tells me none of them will start on Sunday and he'll play his beloved senior pros*

Wilson and King will be competing to see who can win the most pelanties


* i.e. clapped out losers

[Blink 1nce Quince 2wice]

I'm expecting to see......


----------------Leno-------------

Chambers---Sok----Luiz----Kola

------Guendouzi---Xhaka------

Pepe--------Willock-------Saka

--------Aubameyang------------

[dazthegooner]

Well Emery has said he trusts Xhaka (well at least someone does) <_<

[Mac76]

:lol:

If you cover the back half of that team with your thumb and then look at it again, that’s what it will feel like is actually out there when the game starts...

[Blink 1nce Quince 2wice]

But seriously....does anybody expect him to do anything else?

The Liege game was pretty good value for money. Only cost me 17 quid, their fans were good enough to create some atmosphere for us and we saw lots of goals. Even the rain held off on the way home.

The league games have been a lot less enjoyable!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Third with a win.

Tame draw it is. :rose:

[I am invisible]

But seriously....does anybody expect him to do anything else?


Nope, I’m sure that’s pretty much what it will be. If anything, I think you’re being overly optimistic in putting both Willock and Saka in there! There’s still several more baffling options that Emery could, and probably will, pick...

[Blink 1nce Quince 2wice]

I suppose I would expect any deviation to be Torreira for Willock and Nelson for Saka.....but he left Torreira on the other day so that would be a semi surprise.

[GP]

Martinelli should start.

[KSE Comedy Club]

There's 5-6 players that should start, but Emery won't do it for some inexplacable reason.

Man is digging his own grave it seems :shrug:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

A yellow for Xhaka and he has a one game ban.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Arsenal: Leno, Chambers, Sokratis, David Luiz, Kolasinac, Xhaka, Guendouzi, Ceballos, Pepe, Saka, Aubameyang.
Subs: Martinez, Holding, Tierney, Maitland-Niles, Torreira, Willock, Martinelli.

Bournemouth: Ramsdale, Stacey, Cook, Ake, Rico, H Wilson, Billing, Lerma, King, C Wilson, Solanke.
Subs: Boruc, Francis, Surman, Groeneveld, Cook, Fraser, Kelly.

[KSE Comedy Club]

As predicted :sulk:

Lets hope Xhaka gets booked.

Any streams please post, Ta :good:

[dazthegooner]

A yellow for Xhaka and he has a one game ban.

Three for a red :)

[McNamara That Ghost...]

There is that but it does disadvantage in terms of pure numbers and ensures one of the attacking players will be given the hook.

[dazthegooner]

Well there is that but one less penalty liabilty to deal with so no need to score as many goals :unsure:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Unless the red card offence is in giving away a pel.

[dazthegooner]

And there is the downside :(

[Master Splinter]

Need Pepe and Ceballos to step up.

Auba can't be expected to single-handedly carry the team.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Tony Gale co-commentating. :rolleyes:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Good pass from Pepe.

Guendouzi bobbles it out.

[dostoy]

Too wet for fairycake, its understandable really.

No it not too wet, its too sunny.

Its pissing down here and has been all morning.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Auba combing it, I assumed it was going in. Wide it goes.

Ceballos. :bow:

[AFC Leveller]

1-0 sideshow bob

[Thierrymon]

1-0!! xhaka tries to kill luiz before he can celebrate.

[Master Splinter]

LOUISE!!!!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

DAVID LUIZ!!!!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Aaron Ramseydale in goal or someone. :haha:

[KSE Comedy Club]

very good stream here:

[Globalgunner]

Tony Gale co-commentating. :rolleyes:

Wanker!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Billing booked?

Commentator said it was H. Wilson. :lol:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Solanke should've done better with that.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

I hate short corners.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Pepe combs it wide.

Billing should be off.

[Thierrymon]

Nice bit of skill by Pepe. Could have easily been a penalty.

All us so far.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Blatant pel!

[dazthegooner]

What did we expect it is Atkinson...

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Sokratis our new right winger. :bow:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

How has Xhaka avoided a yellow there?

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Stacey booked.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Ramsdale is dead.

[Globalgunner]

We always look vulnerable. We need a 2nd before HT.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Kolasinac better defensively than Tierney.

Gale. :haha:

[Thierrymon]

Pace of the game has totally died in the last 10.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Good run and decent shot from Saka.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Would've been goal of the century by Chambers. :lol:

[AFC Leveller]

Their RB should already be off. Already on a yellow and has committed two bad fouls since.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

1-0 HT. A bit meh.

[Master Splinter]

Get Martinelli and Willock on.

[Blink 1nce Quince 2wice]

Quite a defensively mature performance I thought.

[Globalgunner]

Our football has no plan, no purpose and there are at least 3 players out there who can make a howler at any instant.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Come on Arsenal. :bow:

Give them a good hiding.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Lerma gives Guendouzi a whack.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

How hasn't C. Wilson scored?

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Kolasinac dozing and lucky it bounced over C. Wilson's head.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Leno saves from Stacey's very tightly angled shot.

[Globalgunner]

I think these Muppets actually believe they can win this 1-0

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Poor touch from Saka.

[AFC Leveller]

Brazilian Pèle coming on.

[Thierrymon]

Have we been sold a lemon in Pepe?

Martinelli coming on.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

David Luiz hammers it out of play.

[Globalgunner]

Have we been sold a lemon in Pepe?

Martinelli coming on.

So 1-footed its a miracle he can actually walk.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Pepe off for Martinelli.

Pepe with the only assist so far. :bow:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Solanke hauled off, Fraser on for a dive.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Chambers isn't going to be happy until he has a Zidane goal.

[Thierrymon]

Fraser has come on and is causing up trouble with his pace.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Kolasinac wipes out David Luiz.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Martinelli giving them a good kicking. :bow:

[Thierrymon]

Need a second here or it is gonna get nervy. Dont look like getting another goal though.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Ceballos off for Willock.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Martinelli combs it over.

Saka off, Torreira on.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Come on you Gunners indeed.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Five added minutes of this shit.

[Thierrymon]

No idea how Billing is still on teh pitch. Oafish player.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Auba hits the post!

[Thierrymon]

Chambers :bow: he has been great today.

Auba hits the post.

[Thierrymon]

FT 1-0

Again we made it harder than it needed to be.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

1-0 FT.

Atkinson couldn't even be fucked with playing the minimum minutes.

Emery and Howe both happy with a 1-0 pub, a mostly full stadium wishing they hadn't bothered.

[Letters]

Uninspiring. But I’ll take it.

[Blink 1nce Quince 2wice]

So 1-footed its a miracle he can actually walk.

Haha!!
