Arsenal is playing a disinterested City side...lol

Martinez looks way too good a keeper to be second choice at fucking Arsenal.

[Magic Lamps 11,469]

Those backs to the wall games suit David Luiz perfectly. When he can be proactive he is a decent defender. when he is under absolutely no pressure or specifically targetted with no one around him he fucks up.

And this is why cant write them off winning the whole thing...

I think the only way that 7th in the EPL doesn't get Europa league is if Arse win the FA Cup and do not qualify any other way

if we win it, or if manure win it, then 7th place goes to the EL

tell me how I am wrong please

as (from the BBC article)

 

 

If the FA Cup winners finish in the top six, then seventh place in the Premier League would qualify for the Europa League. The team who qualify in the lowest league spot go into the second qualifying round.

Maybe we can put out a cheeky bid for him when leno comes back and is no. 1 again. A keeper like this deserves to be starting somewhere and we currently have the worst gk in the league

you are right. but how is this relevant to us?

Spurs willl be motivated to lock down 7th at least. and arsenal could easily win this whilst them qualifying another way is unlikely, given they are 10th and out of el

Pep must be going supernova inside. At this rate he may spunk City's entire budget on defenders. 😂

[Laylabelle 9,305]

Just shows as we have shown can have all the ball.. play the better game but that's nothing to celebrate

because @Jason said Shitty simply losing means that the 7th place EPL team is out of the Europa

so it got my mind whirring as I did not think that was the case

Arsenal aren't a bad side. Dont think be so far down next season. It's the draws that have cost them. Haven't lose as many as we have.

he also has the perfect age IMO late 20ies are the best age for a goalkeeper. Already experienced and still quick reactions. He also has no documented injury history

[Atomiswave 6,072]

As long as they dont shoot from outside the box they wont claw this one back, its cross after cross....too easy for arsenal this.

[Vesper 27,416]

Laporte is such a badass

wrong foot and it was almost a worldie

insane he is uncapped

I have to say Arteta starts to worry me. He gets the tactics spot on 80% of the time. He also is very well educated and has experienced in these kinds of environments as pep's assistant

 

damn mustafilooks injured. i hope he doesnotmiss the final lolhe could be our biggest goal threat

[DDA 9,570]

I've been saying Arteta is the real deal from the moment he took charge.

Yes. And French CB is coming. Partey close and maybe Coutinho.
