0-3 win in Ukraine for Arsenal's young guns. Good to see some English academy players performing well on the European stage. Joe Willock, Eddie Nketiah, Emille Smith Rowe in particular were very good tonight.
Decent start for Emery in the Europa League with Arsenal. Qualified top of our group with a game to spare. Good performance for the young lads tonight and we rested key players for the NLD at the weekend
Time will tell whether they've got what it takes to step it up and become first team regulars, but they did their causes no harm tonight. Okay it was only Vorskla. But to go to a tricky away tie in the Ukraine in -10deg and play with that confidence, bodes well. Smith-Rowe in particular. He'll be one who breaks into the first team within the next year, guaranteed
EUROPEY NIGHT - HIAG'S EXPERT ASSESSMENT OF SOME FOREIGN GAS-FITTERS AND POSTMEN vs ARSENAL'S UNDER 11s. Arsenal flattering to deceive in the Europey tonight. They could, of course, relax into the game, secure in the knowledge that they had already qualified. Even with their manager, Dick Emery, having been put on sack watch by the club's mandarins, tonight's meaningless game meant that it was "win win" for the Gunners, who have been able to rest key players ahead of the weekend's clinch with fierce rivals, Spurs. Having languished in the lilywhites' shadow for some while, Dick will be desperate to impress in the long-awaited North London Derby. Yet, despite the utter meaningless of tonight's game, young Pillock seemed to impress, scoring a fine goal. Arsenal have been awaiting another Pillock to play for them, every since little Walnut got ditched. So, well done to Arsenal. But the weekend holds a far deadlier challenge for them.
You'd better pray that Emery gets the sack before Poch ****s off mate, because I've got an avatar for you that's going invoke the mother of all tantrums, and have you throwing your pies out of the pram
