Bournemouth vs Arsenal, 19.10.2024, KO 17:30 GMT

[Niall_Quinn]

Total dive. Keeper dived for the ball. Smith's underpants must be apocalyptic.

[Marc Overmars]

2-0

What a calamity of a day.

[Mac76]

Not sure what to say or if its even worth getting this invested in the "modern game".

If it not the refs rigging matches, its Arteta acting like 10 men is some sort of death sentence.....this season has started off the least entertaining season I can remember in ages......it started badly with stupid decisions in the transfer window and has continued to get worse.

:sigh:

I agree Arteta's caution excerbates the situation, if you take this and the Brighton game together, if he keeps all the attackers on in both and we win one of them we're still better off, even if we lose the other game, than if we draw both

[McNamara That Ghost...]

2-0 Kluivert pelanty, fucking hell.

[Niall_Quinn]

This is an impressive win by the PL officials and the people who pay them and their designated team of the day.

[Mac76]

Jesus coming on, that'll help...

[Niall_Quinn]

Jesus coming on, that'll help...

Why wan't he on in place of Sterling in the first place?

Nobody will tell me where Saka went.

But this was a day where the PL decided the result in advance and they were prepared to do anything to ensure that result was achieved.

There's ony one club who has the financials and connections to buy this league, and its not us.

The caution is justified, that’s not the problem. The problem is not spending money on having attacking players of the requisite quality where we could have taken the chance to try and win the game despite ten men.


Sterling coming off was clearly no impediment to us

[Niall_Quinn]

That's 7 points robbed in the early season. And that's enough to ensure the title goes to the sand-**** Job done. And now all that remains os to milk the advertiser revenue and listen to the fans" sweat on every meaningless game.

Why is Sterling even here? What's the point of it? It's just stupid.
