Gameweek 2 match day thread

The Walcott punt has officially failed.

We need to all accept it and move on.

As tempting as he always is, you can't go week to week wondering if he'll start.

Walcott to come on and grab a brace now watch:rolleyes:

Wenger's such an idiot

Iused2likebusts

Walcott to sanchez and another move for a -4 is what I'm looking at.

wonski

I see that Ozil, Cazorla, Ramsey, Ox, Walcott and Sanchez are all owned by 7-10% players.

Ox and Walcott both benched must be bad news for a lot of players.

-4 point hit next week..Walcott OUT

CSF

Hopefully Walcott slows down the Rooney/Depay transfers

spock.

Walcott --> Payet has been my only good decision so far.

Iused2likebusts

Wenger gets walcott to sign new contract and then it's back to the bench theo.

Giroud 0 goals in last 8 Prem games (609 mins) Gets in ahead of Walcott. #WengerLogic #Arsenal http://t.co/57er17DU71 http://t.co/tA4bTeSd8f

If you probably look at the previous nine games before that, I think it's 9 in 9 for him. Like it or not, Arsenal need a bit focal point in the team. As an Arsenal fan, I would never have considered buying Walcott or Ox in my team.

spock.

Yeah I agree that Giroud up front suits Arsenal better than Walcott.
It's a pity though, because Walcott playing up front every week would have been fantasy gold.

****ing Walcott. And there was me thinking his new contract made him a certain starter :mad:

That's the problem with Arsenal. So many attackers. Add in Giroud and a fit Wellbeck.

I now have no Arsenal coverage and feel better for it even though I reckon they are most likely to score big on any given week. You just can't rely on any 1 player week to week - even to play.

So did theo! Wenger is the ultimate troll!

Gary Gurny

sanchez looking lively already. gambled like a lot of people on theo in my midfield after impressing pre season, but after this week i will be definitley be putting sanchez in and probably staying for the whole season.

Gary Gurny

arsenal looking in the mood here. giroud could of and should of scored

MagicIRL

I have Ramsey and Cech at the mo, with Cesc, Silva, Bentekkers and Wilson to play.

I need points, dammit.

Gary Gurny

sanchez misses an absolute sitter there after a good counter attack from the gunners

spock.

Only Koscielny for me here.
*prays for a 0-0*

zarquon

Sanchez is very dangerous, 3 shots on target already. He had the most shots on goal in the game last week during his cameo 11 minute spell. Give him penalties and he will outscore Hazard this year imo.

Nonsense to call that a sitter, great defensive work by Palace.

suppose that depends on your definition of a sitter. a player of his quality you would expect to score that chance in fairness

Inspector Coptoor

On 20 points for now.

Bellerin and Ramsey here for me.
Ward on the bench.

Hazard in 16:00 game

Mig
Clyne
Benteke (c)
Ritchie for tomorrow

A sitter is an open goal. 3 opposing players between you and the goal in a confined space is not a sitter! It's a good opportunity but not a sitter

Yeah, I felt condemned to that hitting the back of the net to be fair as well.

Iused2likebusts

I'm in the minority on here but I'm more anxious to get sanchez into my team than aguero.

finnharpsboy

goal giroud

Gary Gurny

Giroud goal. ozil assist

zarquon

giroud goal, ozil assist

Glad giroud scored that sitter
