    Can't believe how often Arsenal have over / under hit intricate passes when a good old-fashioned clearance upfield would do. Could come back to haunt them unless they tighten up at the back.

    Hell of a save from Cech, though Benteke should have stuck that away

    The one from Coutinho just now was even better!

    Cracking nil nil that was, really enjoyed that. Thought Gabriel looked quality at the back for Arsenal.

    By extension from Wenger's comments, we have been slightly better than very average so far this season:

    I feel that if we can stay above Arsenal and Chelsea, we will probably be ok.

    So Mr Barton to Burnley! At Champ level he should be a good signing if his ego can be kept in check (unlikely but Dyche could marmalise him if he steps too far out of line!)
    "Joey Barton has described Burnley boss Sean Dyche as "the most impressive guy I've sat in front of for a long, long time", after becoming the club's seventh summer signing." (From BBC gossip and Lancashire telegraph)

    Bah!

    I don't think that's a bad fit for him. About his level, under a boss that will tear his head off if he acts like he usually does.

    I know. A mate of mine is seeing his first Town game of the season. I couldn't be happier. A Hughton side scored 2 in 12 minutes at their ground when he decided to go!

    Coutinho's red means he will miss our game at Anfield yes?

    I think the addition of NCFC to the league has just fecked up the pecking order. Citeh are ****ting it and getting as many points on the board before their visit to Norfolk.

    God that would be good! I hope so, give us a boost, he's looking sharp again this season.

    Very strange, but no wins for Bournemouth, Watford or Sunderland.

    I tell you what,on the counter. Zaha, Bolasie, and Sako look pretty exciting. When you add to that Pardews defensive expertise, and Cabaye as a sitting playmaker. They are set up pretty well for at least midtable. I can't get my head around how Delaney looks like a Premiership defender now.

    Ooooh....Didn't think that Zouma was a penalty, but that replay right there during the Jose interview. Wickham again, blatantly pulling his shirt, and pulls him down.

    Saw this on BBC gossip!

    Arsenal fans planned to protest on Wednesday evening outside Emirates Stadium over the club's lack of action in the transfer window, but no-one turned up. (Independent)
