EPL 2020/2021

[snowman]

Where do Arsenal go from here? It’s all pretty grim. At least when Wenger left, it was still an appealing option for managers. Doesn’t seem that way anymore, I don’t see anything in their squad to be excited about.

**** knows what they do, but what they have done isn't working

they signed nicholas pepe because jurgen klopp called him, and now he is a 72 million pound flop

the got partey, whom i said was crap, and is crap, for a ridiculous amount and he is a positionless player in the prem, they signed him because he stole the ball of henderson and it lead to a goal

the CB they got looked ok to start, but brazillian defenders are usually a liability

and hector bellerin has given away 5 foul throws

they are a mess

Agree with you, their recruitment has been terrible.

They have Burnley and Southampton at home next two games, if they don’t get wins in those games then it is Everton away and Chelsea home. Pressure is mounting big time on Arteta!

Let’s have a bit of fun:

Aston Villa vs Newcastle: Villa
Burnley vs Everton: Everton
Man City vs Fulham: City
West Ham vs Man United: United
Chelsea vs Leeds: Chelsea
West Brom vs Crystal Palace: Draw
Sheffield United vs Leicester: Leicester
Tottenham Hotspur vs Arsenal: Spurs
Liverpool vs Wolves: Draw (to make this interesting)
Brighton vs Southampton: Saints

Have at it fellas. I didn’t tip Liverpool just in case our tips are too similar and we want it to be interesting.

Nothing on the line except eternal bragging rights and we must bow down to the winner and acknowledge them as the greatest most wisest most well hung football fan that has ever, or ever will, be.

Looks like we are both as equally well-endowed hey, mate!

Man Utd at Old Trafford in the PL this season:

Palace 1-3
Spurs 1-6
Chelsea 0-0
Arsenal 0-1
West Brom 1-0
Man City 0-0

Bet their fans are glad they can't go the game. 3 goals in 6 home games (2 Pens) ****e

Yet they’ve won 9 straight games away from home in the EPL. Bizarre.

 

[snowman]

arsenal have scored 2 premier league goals since october 17, lost 4 straight at home and are 15th

arteta is a genius

None of the so called “traditional big 6” won this week (United, City, Liverpool, Chelsea, Arsenal & Spurs) I can’t remember the last time that happened, maybe not for over 15 years.

They’re next three games are Southampton, Everton and Chelsea, hard seeing them winning any of those. There is a very good chance that they will be in the bottom three to start 2021.

Starting to look like nobody wants to win the title this year......

 

[Sir Chadley]

Very happy with a 1-1 result at Etihad this morning. 77% possession to City but we defended bravely and deserved the point.

Great confidence booster for this Sunday against Villa. Three points there would take us out of the bottom 3.

Your keeper had a 5 minutes to remember

Bilic sacked. Thought he was doing an alright job.

Apparently the new manager will be Allardyce

Weirdly enough they actually did quite well in his last game against City. So timing is a bit odd.

Pretty sure this almost completes the set for Big Sam. He has deadset almost managed every single club in any division of English Football. He just will not go away.

He certainly did. Top notch saves at the death.

Bilic sacked. Thought he was doing an alright job.

Considering the players he had and the fact the board and chairman wouldn't give him any funds, he did a sensational job.

Apparently the new manager will be Allardyce

Not sure at all about Big Sam. Not sure if the players will play for him.

Timing was very odd CM. My view is that they decided to switch after the Newcastle game and thought we'd get smashed by City, so that would be a good time to announce it.
The board and chairman are left with egg on their face.

What a win by Liverpool this morning!

So many bodies missing and still getting it done

 

[sharkboy18]

Arsenal former player Walcott was certainly canky & frustrated this morning after expecting a good & easy win for them haha. Main thing is we got our losing drought over & finally we got our goal we've been looking for. Hopefully this will bring them back into life now.

Ooook, just settling in with Optus Sports to watch my team make 1 point Sheffield look like prime Barcelona.....
