I have to say, Jonjo Shelvey is a (very) good player. Intelligent and patient on the ball, strong passer and a good eye for through balls. Still very young too, didn't realise that. Wouldn't mind him as an alternative to Fabregas at all, but playing every week is better for him.

He should always be in the England squad imo. He's the type of player England lacks, and always have lacked.

He has matured superbly. Got amazing vision.

Arsenal look like they could score with nearly every attack. Suicidal defending from Palace. They have no control of the midfield either. Getting dominated there.

Don't think there's any way they prevent them from scoring again unless they change things.

[Pizy 17,860]

LOL! Books the Palace player for an identical challenge that he didn't give Coquelin a second yellow for seconds earlier. Unreal!

Well, Cech was bought to defend such shots..

You kidding me? A goalkeeper was bought to stop shots? [emoji54][emoji54][emoji54]

You know there's one specific thing about Arsenal supporters that I hate..

They say so much shit about Giroud being a shit player for them.. how he "never seems to do anything", and yet it's always him that seems to get on the scoresheet every week for them!

That would be like if I said, "Falcao is fucking useless, he never gets in the right areas, his finishing is worse than Torres", yet amongst all of that he somehow gets a hat-trick every week!
