    well that prediction went tits up early. 1-0 southampton after 30 seconds



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 30,865 ✭✭✭✭TitianGerm


    You're f**king kidding me, they have to win tonight or City will stroll over the line 😞

    Arsenal throw away 2 * 2-0 leads and now gift a howler of a goal after 30 seconds. There won't be the stupid time wasting for a while at least tonight.

    Jesus looked awful fired up just there arguing with the Southampton player about a corner.

    Are the player too fired up? Are they right mentally? Time will tell now.

    Oh dear Arsenal



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,817 ✭✭✭✭Fitz*


    Walcott scores against his own club. Good first time finish.

    Uh oh.


    Zinchenko calls all the Arsenal players in for a big chat.

    Pressure. 3 games on the bounce now where they have lost the plot.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 16,526 ✭✭✭✭ctrl-alt-delete


    Yet you will still be lambasted for saying Arsenal have bottled it.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 37,520 ✭✭✭✭SlickRic


    I got ridiculed for saying they're not solid enough to go the distance with City.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 21,682 ✭✭✭✭y0ssar1an22


    2-1. game back on



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,817 ✭✭✭✭Fitz*


    Big goal Martinelli.

    Saka has been in really poor form the last while but that was good. Just about kept it in play too.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,956 ✭✭✭✭hynesie08


    Southampton might have to leave first gear now.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 21,682 ✭✭✭✭y0ssar1an22


    looks a bad injury here to bednarek



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,279 ✭✭✭✭castletownman


    Bleedin' foreign striker leaning in like that.

    You'd never see Sir Harry Kane do such a thing. No siree.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 30,785 ✭✭✭✭Quazzie


    His playacting has left him that he won't be allowed continue.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 21,682 ✭✭✭✭y0ssar1an22


    fair play to the doc's signalling he needs to be taken off

    On what planet is that not dangerous play.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 21,682 ✭✭✭✭y0ssar1an22




  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,218 ✭✭✭✭Mushy


    Outrageous that it isn't a red...and then a pull back actually is a card. Shambles officiating



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,817 ✭✭✭✭Fitz*


    By right Martinelli should be booked for that. It's dirty play - the Harry Kane special. Puts the opposition at serious risk.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,145 ✭✭✭Pipmae


    He could have actually broke his neck. Shocking. I think when Bednarek watches the replay he'll understand where the medical team were coming from although his frustration is totally understandable.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,884 ✭✭✭jacool


    Two massive jersey pulls there and nothing given. First Jesus is dragged back when going on his run into the box and then Perraud pulls back Gabriel as he heads the ball. Perraud is actually lucky not to be off as he put his arms up and almost blocked a quick throw-in just after he was booked. I can't see Southampton finishing with 11 here, probably 9.

    Martinelli should have been booked too - they must have confused him with Harry Kane.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,781 ✭✭✭Flaneur OBrien


    That Southampton strip is manky.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 1,051 ✭✭✭Infoseeker1975


    Arsenal will win as Southampton are bottom for a reason though Alcaraz looks an excellent player, both their full backs are booked and to get a result they will definitely need to score at least one more goal in the 2nd half.

    Surprised at the drop off from Arsenal in the last couple of games with no European football, take a couple of players out in Saliba & Xhaka & they are struggling, even though it is a young team I think this is their best chance for many years as CL next season will make it way harder.

    They need to get a draw against City next Wednesday to have a good chance of remaining on top, hopefully they will as a 5th city title win in 6 years and the need to get 90pts to compete with them makes it likely they will win the next few titles also.

    Ahhahahaha, state of Arteta geeing up the crowd there over Southampton time wasting 😂 he didn't have an issue with it when Arsenal were flat out at it over the last few weeks.

    The level of time wasting here is disgusting. Players going down with two physio's around them and neither giving any treatment says it all really
