Arsenal Talk/Gossip/Rumours Thread 2016/2017

A win now and Arsenal could separate themselves and the other top 4 from the rest of the table a loss and it'd be you and Spurs being (5pts behind the trio ahead) chased by Utd even further back.

Big 3 pts

which I think you'll get but its def a game where it seems much more important for all 3 and a draw would be quite bad even though Bournemouth aren't terrible. Wonder how motivated Jack will be against Arsenal, show them what their missing or a little reluctant to hurt my own side?

Jack cannot play against Arsenal. Loanees cannot play against their parent club

Ahh of course (doh!) they would have that in his loan contract, pity but it obviously means on Paper they are at least slightly less of a worrying prospect to play against as on his day he can be great.

big 3pts either way

Its against the rules regardless of contract

Bounty Hunter

guess I'm just thinking of the old european loans where you had people like Morientes playing against Madrid for Monaco etc but like I said doh!


anyway... big 3pts

Jaysus lads, have you something on your consciences that you can't sleep and are posting here at 5 and 6 in the morning? PM me if you need counselling

The November thing is a load of shyte.

Again, while I agree with you, there was quite a good explanation on the live Arsecast that was posted on Friday, where they talk about the pre-season training meaning they suffer in November to make sure they last the rest of the season. Phillipe Auclair (spell check required!!) discussed it. Worth a listen anyway!

Any sign of a team being named yet? Need these 3 points badly to put the shocking stuff of the last 3 games behind us.

Xhaka gets a start. Nice bit of pace on the flanks.

Just realised we're playing Debuchy....all out of RB's!

Very Happy to see Ramsey dropped Ozil plays miles better when he isn't playing , would have probably rathered to see Iwobi playing over Ox though

Iwobi was a disaster against PSG and Ox has looked good recently when coming on. I think he deserves his chance.

Agree Iwobi is a super potential but he hasn't been hitting the level and was awful against PSG

Like the look of the team today back to speed up top

tayto lover

Xhaka and Elneny together.
That should work well.

mansize

Arsene against the pretender to his throne

mansize

Henry right, no Santi Özil drops too deep to get a pass

mansize

Does Jenk know the way to the Olympic Stadium? Hope he had his Oyster Card!

mansize

Sanchez

omega man

Howler, nice one!

Skylinehead

Yeah that'll do

tayto lover

Debuchy is poxed.

omega man

Debuchy seriously

Skylinehead

Shame, Debuchy was looking sharp.

mansize

He didn't last long

I live in Taiwan so... there is that for me anyway.

I like the look of that side. Ox probably hasn't improved as much as he should have by now but that looks like the type of fast paced side that could suit his game.

edit: Hard luck Debuchy, just back and all

mansize

If Ox does nothing today - his time is limited at Arsenal

Skylinehead

Wow, how was the foul on Ozil not given?

tayto lover

All because of Ozil's lack of balls there on the wing.
Great footballer but so lacking in courage.

omega man

How is that a peno ffs

mansize

He flung himself in front of Nacho and gets a peno 🤔

AdamD

Wilson ran into Monreal..

jamescd

Never a penalty.

Özil was rugby tackled tbf

Never a penalty but we've been terrible since scoring. We were denied a stonewall too

Watch it again.

Get the finger out arsenal. Should be 2-1 down there

That may be where the sky crowd mic is tbf

Gabriel at rb is a disaster. Why was Jenkinson not included in the squad considering Debuchy hasn't played in so long? Poor management yet again.

tayto lover

At least we had another shot at goal.

tayto lover

..... and another.

Gab covers two positions

What was Sanchez at?

Ref is vile.
