"A reminder to Arsenal that they cannot switch off for even a moment in the Premier League"
.... 0.09 xG. 2 goals. I forgot that when someone scores a goal of the season, it's because you switched off. Fucking muppets. There's an actual exciting game of football you could be commenting on, but you prefer to manufacture engagement via drama.
Hopefully this is the only reminder that we need that you don't ever take the foot off the gas.
In the end, we found enough quality to get the three points, which is what we needed.
Yeah i hate that we sometimes do fall back into complacency
Mikel needs to remind everyone...goal difference counts
Fun, fun match there. Let's hope tomorrow's equivalent fixture is much easier XD
I had to cook dinner during the 2nd half. I caught most of it except the 2 goals we conceded. I was running back and forth like a yoyo.
I would have been annoyed and disappointed if we had drawn or lost that after how well we played in the first half. Shows how quickly a game state can change and nothing is a guarantee.
How Skipp avoided a second yellow I'll never know. I suppose those are reserved for only the most egregious of offenses, such as getting kicked in the leg by Veltman or not having a sub-750 ms reaction time.
So happy we pulled through. Was starting to worry a lot there.
I swear to God, every commentator should be allowed to say "they're celebrating as if they've won the title" one time in their entire career. After that, you have to find a new phrase to use. Fucking lazy pricks. Every time we score, we apparently celebrate as if we've won the title. Well, as rival fans are hasty to remind us, we haven't actually won the title yet, so how do you know what that'll look like? Maybe we'll load up Michael Oliver and Sheikh Mansour into a cannon and fire them to Legoland!
Don’t forget to vote for Paul Merson on Strictly!
You know, everyone keeps talking about the dark arts from Arsenal, but dark arts would have been abandoning the throw in and demanding that the ref book Justin for interfering with the free kick at 55'. You know, because the ref apparently doesn't have a choice in the matter?
Leicester were doing the same things we were. Yet they'll be called brave and unlucky or something equally as ridiculous.
I'm trying to start adopting this level of criticism as jealousy and their using it as a tool to dishearten us, which I refuse to let it do.
It's the correct, and really only, move. Leicester were not unlucky, in fact they were insanely lucky. By all rights we should won 3 or 4 to 1. You can't legislate for wonder goals though.
It took like 20 corners to break through that Leicester goalkeeper and then of course it was an own goal.
You can accept that Hermansen had an absolute worldie and also applaud the lads for sticking the knife in.
PL now saying it goes down to Trossard, was on target
that wanker of a goalie is gonna spread his legs against Abu Dhabi fc I just know it
