Awesome mate ... what odds on them winning the title <laugh>

A not very tempting 100/1. Bigger odds than West Ham who actually are going to win the league at 60/1 currently.

Chelsea are value at close to 3/1 IMO.

I’m aware it wasn’t a serious post but it prompted me to look up the odds while doing a **** anyway. You’re welcome.

Lesta 500/1 btw if you fancy.

Just as Arteta is hoping to use you Ponks ... but life goes on... can't really fault our recruitment on all fronts ...

Weak response that mate, as it's a completely different set of circumstances. Arteta is slowly finding his feet in probably one of the toughest and most prestigious jobs in the prem, if he makes a success of it, he'll be at Arsenal for the long term.

But you'd have to think that Brenda, coming from Liverpool and Celtic, would be looking to get back to a big club after his success at Lesta. Remember he was considered a risky appointment at the time and it's unlikely that any of the big clubs would have taken him on. That's not the case now though, and if Utd came in for him, I think he'd be off.

I watched it on Sky

The reason they scored was not just because of the foul on Sarr it was because Danny Rose put the ball into touch so another Watford player who had been taken out by Arsenal could get some treatment

The foul on Sarr should have resulted in a booking and not a goal for Arsenal, the Arsenal left back was booked earlier for less of a tackle than the blatant bodycheck that led to their goal, the pundits after the game said Arsenal should have given the ball back to us and failing that we should have been given a free kick for the bodycheck on Sarr

King should have taken a touch and got a better angle and could have scored the equaliser

I know they had the better of the game but how many more times are we going to be cheated by crap referees

Pinky go ride your surfboard upside down

<laugh> I watched that and the 'foul' on Sarr was nothing more than him getting outmuscled by AMN. He went down like a sack of ****, would have been a crime to have blown up for a foul for that.

As for that throw in, your player was already getting to his feet when you put the ball out of play. Watford were penned in near their own penalty box and I think your player thought he'd relieve the pressure by putting it out of play, and then assuming we'd give it back to you. No need for Arsenal to give you the ball back in that scenario.

As for the crap ref, like Flossy moaning last week. You were lucky that you didn't have a man sent off long before Kucka was sent off. Danny Rose should have got two yellows, one for the forearm smash on Lacazette for the pen and another for the blatant trip on Lacazette when he'd skinned him.

Anyway in the end you were lucky that you only lost 1-0 so stfu duggie <diva>
 
The whole putting the ball out thing is bollocks anyway. Play to the whistle.

Watford maybe gave away a throw about ten yards deeper than they would have hacking it clear anyway. A whole lot still has to happen between that and the goal going in.
 
So I understand Sly have done four hour special on yesterdays loss for Liverpool and they are tracing it back to........

They put it out of play because we had them penned in near their own box. If they had been on the attack, there's no way they put that ball out for a player who's already getting to his feet.

Fosse doing his best to deflect from the reality that the words 'Manchester United calling' would have Brendan packing his bags and darting up the M6.

Instead he's talking like it's the other way round ffs <laugh>
