It's been alright. Arsenal on top, just about. I predict many goals.

Think arsenal have been well on top, Newcastle dangerous all the same, agreed on the goals thing. Will be 3/4 here i'd say

Is Gibbs the most injury prone player this season?

iMuse

Not just this season. He makes Van Persie look like Chuck Norris.

Probably the same reason the one in the first minute in the Newcastle penalty area wasn't.

Manc-Red

There would have been a riot if the Gunner's had 'ave scored there.

M5

Yup, hardly intentional but you cat gain such a clear advantage from a handball

iMuse

Newcastle fans would have been pissed if that went in. Wasnt a hand ball though

Usually looked on differently outside the box to be fair!

think that would be given 90% of the time outside the box

5% inside

M5

no chance this time

And? I'm not saying that's not the case, but I'm unsure of where to find it in the laws. If someone is going to start whinging about an accidental handball not being given in the build-up to a chance they should remember the one not given which blocked a close-range shot.

amacachi

Can see this finishing 0-0.

Good to see that we've condensed that earlier pressure.

Eh? Handball is handball regardless of where it is on the pitch

That_Guy

Unlucky. Just a tad offside.

I mean the unintentional ones. You usually get a FK outside the box

Aye that he is. Can't cross the ball for sh*t.

He's not made one good run yet. He's supposed to be playing out wide but he keeps cutting inside.

He's not made one good run yet. He's supposed to be playing out wide but he keeps cutting inside and running straight into 3 oppo players.

FYP

amacachi

Ugh, Eboue.

Manc-Red

Should have been 1-0 Arsenal....

Wrong man in that position imo

M5

lol another one

That_Guy

Fcuking hell. How is that not a handball?

M5

Bendtner must have had about 8 shots

Manc-Red

Newcastle are needing the break here big-time.

Arsenal playing some lovely footy that the Geordies can't live with atm.

That_Guy

That was good from Routledge.... Still can't cross for sh*t.

Thought we had it under control, but the last few mins normal business resumed. Only way we'll win here is by getting one on the break. Arsenal dont look that solid at the back

amacachi

LOL.

That_Guy

Ah fcuk. Sloppy.
