Match Day Thread General matchday thread.

It's brilliant when Arsenal lose, I think he's top level entertainment.

On the sidelines you can see it coming, as the game ticks on and on he's getting wilder and wilder. He absolutely bursts when they ask him a question

 

I'm not surprised, all so very predictable. The international break was reported as being good for Arsenal's players, Pinkie was acting like a kid let loose in a candy store at the time. We ALL knew how this was going to end. Arteta still thinking about his Man City days, and dreams when he's asleep that he is the new Pep lol. Remembering he turned down the Arsenal Academy offered by Wenger, Arsenal were always a second thought to him, and will always be second best during Arteta's tenure. Wenger OUT lol.

 

It's the ****e he comes out with, the fcking pipsqueak. Who is he? Won a cup 3 yrs ago. Coming out with **** like, I've been 20 years in this country and now I feel ashamed. Who gives a fck?

It's a disgrace and there's too much at stake here. We are trying to do incredible things Fck off nobhead.

 

These Fluminense players don’t seem to have positions. They’re just overloading on players wherever the ball is on the field. Pass the ball up the right wing and there’s 4 or 5 of them there. It’s mad.

 

It is a bit like

"Ok, leave then?"

 

Yeah. He can get back on his boat and **** off back to the **** hole he comes from. Trying to change the way we do things, he should respect our culture and way of life.

 

I'm watching it. In possession the whole team heads to the left of the pitch where most of their attack is with huge gaps on the right.

When Boca get possession they quickly regroup.

It's mad football, a bit congested at times but seems to work.

 

That's the goal.

1-0 Fluminense

 

Nice build up and goal from the right of the pitch

 

San Sebastian is a beautiful city Saf

 

The overload drew so many of the Boca players over.

 

I didn’t actually know where he comes from and I didn’t actually mean what I said

 

That 45 mins flew by.

 

That is some Stadium they are playing in

 

Fluminense's isn't it.

Looks incredible.

 

Unlike some of the new Stadiums over hear that look like National Car Parks from the outside and feel like them from the inside

 

That is the club we bought Richarlison and Pedro from, didn't realise that they were that big a club

I think we have another 18 yr old lined up for the Jan window and another one playing for us this year

 

I like most of our board but generally go on before and then a few hours after a match rather than during

It was a poor match to be honest, think it shows that both squads are being stretched at the moment - there were a lot of players on the pitch who have had too many minutes in their legs in the last month. Man City are miles ahead in that regard. We probably didn't deserve to win but I'm not sure Arsenal deserved anything anyway, they looked lacking in quality in the final third but I think that's just tiredness.

I've not rewatched the "goal" but will see it on MotD later. I don't think either team was scoring otherwise but with my biased eyes I thought Arsenal played better but didn't seem to do anything and we had the best chances - but even they were poor.
