Are the Gallaghers present?

That was a pen

No chance. Ref was right, free out.

That was an excellent goal. Really good centre forward play pinning the centre half and a great ball, run and finish

well....not a good start.

 

[Joe Mac]

de Bruyne loves playing against Arsenal (sorry Boojy)

 

[Jonathan Y]

I didn't start Steele today because I was unsure if it would be him or Martinez...Steele has a pen save already for Brighton lol


EDIT: Boojy'd

 

[Joe Mac]

City have been really impressive. Other than that time early doors when Saka got in behind they’ve bossed it.

 

[Joe Mac]

Is Rob Holding wearing a fucking Alice band?

That’s just not gravy for a big English centre half

 

[Jonathan Y]

Ben White is so good

 

[Joe Mac]

For all their excellence on the ball city are ripping Arsenal to pieces with fast direct counter attacks.

yea KDB is having a performance of the season type game so far

It’s a pity Tomayasu is out too because i imagine if he was fit they’d play him and move White in one.

Haaland too, he’s giving an exhibition in great centre forward play outside of box.

I think Tierney should be back there and holding should be watching from the bench but that is just me

Tierney is good on the left of a three but I’ve never seen him left of a two. He’s a bit small. Also too very left footed centre halves might be a bit unbalanced.

On the positive mate at least they’re missing all these chances. If you can keep it to one at half time you’ve majorly got off the hook and have a chance to regroup.

yea tru. Zinchenko looks like he doesn't care which doesn't help.....Partey should've did better with that chance too but you are right

Partey also doesn't seem like his self

Partey has been all over the place defensively too. He’s just not tracking de Bruyne and your back two are mad exposed. The two of them have actually done quite well all things considered.

oh for fuck sake
