This Weekend’s Other Games 20/09

[Kev0909]

Not sure what to watch

Arsenal v West ham.... can't see west ham causing a upset.. so probably a depressing watch

Has to be UTD v sunderland.... utd should win at home.... but it's good for us if they do because he'll still be in charge against us next game when we're at home, and if they lose well that'll be funny too. Then again almorons system might work against us with the wingbacks how narrow we've been, but hopefully at home we should be ok.

We still need a wide forward, a no 6 and a CB.

I feel like the bloke in the Fawlty Towers episode that can’t get served and has to keep repeating “A gin and tonic, an orange squash and a Scotch and water!!”

Yep after spending over 400m

that'll be the difference if arsenal win the league, they signed the players they actually needed

We could've signed Semenyo Hincapié.. Scavini or another CB out there, was quite a few in the window that would've joined the champions...and a no6 sure there's a couple out there.

What worries me, arsenal have a great age-range too Gabriel only 27... some good years left when you think VVD is 35 next year.. saka only 24 rice 26..Saliba 24... Eze 26 havertz 26 Ødegaard 26.. Lewis skelly 19.. and a whole host of youth options Nwaneri-Dowman...

When you think for us VVD, Salah and allison, also Robertson on a lower level.. is at the end, I know it's not all doom and gloom Grav,Isak,Wirtz,Ekitike the fullbacks that hopefully come good, Rio... but still.

But they can keep the spine of team and add some more quality with 1 or 2 transfers... we've still got a lot of work to do for some reason, especially with the best players of late aging and will be gone soon, have to think about replacing them aswell as a CB no6 and a wide player... this is after a mad window still and spending the amount we did.. and I'm guessing we'll have to be careful of FFP the next few years...

But when you think about it that's X2 cb's at least if konate goes next season or 2, 2 wide players needed prep for salah leaving or not starting every game.. and still a no6 .. at least if we got Hincapié. that would've been someone that could fill in for Kerkez or play CB when robbo goes.

For me Jones,Gomez not the solution and shouldn't be 3rd choice or the main player rotating often, RW is ok for now but salah won't be here forever hopefully Chiesa sticks around so that's side covered when we get a new RW when salah goes, left side is not great Gakpo is a squad player for me, we need pace we need someone direct, rio is not ready yet and who knows if he will be in the future let's hope- but how many young players look good and never make it.

Wish I could be so positive as others, i'm glad we got Wirtz and Isak but doesn't solve the problems and lack of depth in areas we had in the first place, if anything added to it, short on the wings now too.

I hope i'm wrong but if not this season, the next few seasons this window will come back to bite us.

Incoming easy game, let the ArTITA Bitches go top. They can have the Favourites title tag and see if they can handle the pressure.

Seems fine on PC dunno why it would just be mobile

but just another day on this forum.... always something, had it's day sadly noone cares about it, it's ran on a dial up connection or something

Anyway

utd almorons bringing the glory days again lols 1-0 in fairness they're actually playing good play like this v us they'll have a chance of a result unless we pick it up massivley

Arsewankers 1-0 v west ham oh offside.. but only a matter of time

No shocks..

[Kev0909]

Odegaard goes off injured again, I'm sure he's injured every week.. why not give him a rest, they've got enough options.

His pain threshold is pathetic. The guys made of biscuits. I’m sure they believe they don’t need him anyway.

[Kev0909]

and there we have it arsewipes 1-0

[RedMagic]

West Ham were never going to keep them out for 90+ minutes. It was a siege. Let's hope Slott sets us up to be more defensively solid and we wake the hell up and get the three points today.

[Jenson78]

HT 1-0 To the George Grahams.

[Kev0909]

Arsenal pen and goal 2-0

Utd still winning 2-0

That's that then, all we need now to make the weekend complete is chelsea winning!

[miller0863]

So all three commentators and pundits on the radio say the foul was outside the box and VAR will rule out Arsenal’s penalty

VAR didn’t even check it

Arsenal 2-0 WHU

Arsenal top

[Daffydd]

Arsenal pen and goal 2-0

Utd still winning 2-0

That's that then, all we need now to make the weekend complete is chelsea winning!

Hehe, I welcome the day we say "that's that then" when it's us who is 2-0 up

UTD have played well but sunderland really do look like a team that's just come up today.

West ham never going to score 2 against arsenal lets be honest, more likely 4-0 arsenal, not even a shot on target, best chance still was in the first minute
