I genuinely don't care anymore. I look at the players who are multi multi millionaires not trying on the pitch and I ask myself why should I care? I'm sick of arsene, I'm sick of lack of effort, I'm sick of mediocrity.

When arsene gets carried out then I'll be excited again. Until then, what's the point?

Bye bye, then.

This is extrememly important today. We have to HAVE to beat these. No messing.

COME ON ARSENAL.

They are trying. They're doing what Wenger tells them to.

The fault for the performances are with him.

Fair enough.

Sorry, I'm just a bit tetchy with all these other snakes never dropping points anymore.

Ozil out (flu victim?) and Coquelin dropped and replaced by Elneny.

Perez Giroud and Alexis up front. Looks like Iwobi is playing no 10.

Ramsey and Ox on the bench.

Just reading about the incident in Turkey. Would be unsurprising if Ozil knew some of those involved.

tayto lover

Do I recall Ozil being sick at the same time last season too?

Today's team should be good enough to see off a poor Palace but it wouldn't instill any fear in the teams above or beside us.

We can't rely on others doing our jobs for us. We blew it ourselves. We were 1 up against Everton and City and blew it.

Sick or not, having him out of the team to get his **** together isn't a bad thing. Been none exsistent the last month

tayto lover

I saw the time i'd be very excited about a New Year';s Day match.
We've gone that stale and predictable I have little or no interest today.
What have you done to me Wenger?

It's like when you're young and waiting on Santa.
Some day the realisation just dawns on you - there's no Santa.

I'm stuck indoors with a flu so I've got little else to be doing. Wouldn't be too pushed either tbh.

Big game for Iwobi. I think the centre might suit him better.

brianregan09

Yeah and I still love christmas just like I still love Arsenal

I have it too. Awful dose.
Good time for the fringe players to show what they're made of.

tayto lover

Giroud has a hole in his foot.

Boo hoo

We're a hard team to really get behind.

MEGA BRO WOLF 5000

We look hungry today. Nice movement, good closing down, palace organised so far though. Hope we can get an early goal.

omega man

Wow

tayto lover

There's your back-heeled volley right there.:D

greendom

That's why I still enjoy watching Arsenal !!!!!!!

FixitFelix

**** me what a goal

This is the point in our games against city and Everton that we've sat back and not pushed on for the kill

Royale with Cheese

Fúck me. Was actually in the middle of writing a post saying my interest is also waning slightly, but then you see a goal like that and remember why you watch Arsenal.

Skylinehead

Ok that I didn't expect

Roddy23

Gobsmacked. What.A.Goal.

MEGA BRO WOLF 5000

Goal of the season. Mother of god. That's absolutely amazing!!

omega man

That goal deserves 3 points in itself so please get the job done lads.

Kirby

Goal of the month for December : Scorpion kick.

Goal of the month for January : Scorpion kick.

We live in interesting times. :P

tayto lover

Perez looks a bit weak in possession.

FixitFelix

Perez making intelligent runs, just needs to relax and sort his touch out

tayto lover

We need the second goal here.
Plus why is there a reluctance to cross the ball in high after it being successful already?

greendom

Game hasn't taken off since the goal. Palace not taking any risks just yet.

FixitFelix

How'd Sanchez miss?

Was sure he was about to make it 2. He hit it too close to the keeper.

Losing his balance I think, not as easy as I first thought

Still should bury it

Soups123

Extraordinary goal.

Solid defensively, a little bit leggie on the attack, Perez has been very poor, wouldn't be surprised to see him pulled 10 minutes in.

Another goal now so we're not sweating would be nice

KaiserGunner

Unbelievable goal by Giroud, my jaw was to the floor when that goal went in. We should be a few more goals up though, been an easy match so far.

emergingstar

I like xhaka a lot but sometimes he should just pop that little 10 yard pass instead of the Long ball all the time

eigrod

That was probably the best goal I've ever seen...and I'm 49 and not an Arsenal fan.

I get very few prezzies. I do like Giroud's though. We need another of any kind.

Yeah, for the last 5 or 6 years. I've seriously lost interest in football and it's directly down to groundhog day syndrome with arsenal. Cannot wait for a new manager.

Ive grown somewhat of an apathy toward football in general these past few years. I think its from working hard in shítty jobs and getting nowhere whilst watching some of these players who are millionaires and some of them look like they couldn't be arsed half of the time.

MEGA BRO WOLF 5000

Benteke really should have scored. Thats called a warning shot, we need to score another goal soon.

Elneny needs to start more games. He brings such dynamism to our midfield and is a tough bit of stuff

He's always looking for the ball in fairness and is a willing worker.

Good man Iwobi

MonsterCookie

well taken by Iwobi

now we need another...

brianregan09

I was hoping Iwobi would go off he's been pretty poor today outside of the goal , Elneny has been brilliant again such a good player

Soups123

Preferred the first goal......

Skylinehead

Lovely header, not a lot to aim at there.
