Partey only one over 25 years old in Arsenal side. 

[Vesper 30,091]

wow Håland off

[Vesper 30,091]

this is last 'easier' (because the FWCC is not played in 2024, and then in 2025 is WAY harder to win as it will have 32 teams) chance for a club to win 7 trophies in one season

IF Citeh win this they are still on course

plus they will have won 10 linearly (as they won the EPL, the FA Cup, and the CL in a row last season

I'm confused on his statement. Gundogan has arguably been City's best midfielder these past 2 years. 

To clarify, Ilkay was under par for year's as in he went there in 2016 with big things expected and took years to come good. My statement wasn't clear at all, apologies!

We sold him because he didn't want to be here. He jumped ship. 

People can be persuaded through the right means if necessary -still, helped us win CL Ropey League and World Championship

Tierney coming on, first 1v1 and shows the left footer onto his strong foot, ouch.

poor fullbacks can WRECK you defensively in today's game

[DH1988 1,346]

Arsenal’s midfield needs to gel and quick.

Rice off.

[Pizy 18,852]

Havertz has gone invisible in this second half. And I know it’s City they’re playing against, but Rice as a £100m+ player doesn’t really do anything with the ball. Still a solid defensive screen and has broken up play a few times but he doesn’t offer much with the ball at his feet for the price he was.
