Arsenal Team Talk/Gossip/Rumours 2020/2021

DenMan

Looking forward to the game tonight. It's a great occasion to have Arsenal in Ireland playing in a European tie at the national stadium. Huge night for Dundalk too. It's live on Virgin Media Two @17:55.

The board would need to look at themselves, spent all summer chasing Aouar with no backup if it didn't happen. A creative player was what the team was crying out for and they didn't bring one in. Arteta is by no means setting the world alight but with the ****e he has within the squad no one would. I agree if he gets 1 or 2 in the January window and things still aren't picking up 2 months down the line, then questions will certainly be asked.

Yet no offer was made apparently until the window was about to close according to the player’s club. Then it was too little.

DenMan

Smith Rowe starts tonight!

Think they were trying to hide the fact that they could pay more money by leaving the Partey 50m deal until the end but it didn't work out, but still bad form, if the money is there and the player will improve the team why dick around?

It was Aouar's brother (his agent) who moved the goalposts at the last minute , that was the story going around that he wanted agents fee's and all this bollocks, he'd have probably got it and more if Sanlehi the dodgy fella was still there

DenMan

Come on Arsenal!

DenMan

The pitch looks horribly rough. The FAI should have had this surface immaculate and ready for this game. The Aviva is going to be used next summer for the Euro's.

Should be running up a decent score here, Dundalk arent at the races at all

2 rugby games played on it in the past 2 weeks. But the 6 yard box looks awful too so can't blame the rugby entirely.

DenMan

Eddie! 0-1

Soups123

1-0 Eddie N

Andy Boyle has been terrible for Dundalk in Europe. Awful that.

Awful, you cant be that slow on the ball in any league let alone at European level

wonga77

Holy sh1t thats some goal from Elneny!

tayto lover

Great strike Elneny.

DenMan

Wonder strike from Elneny. 0-2

Ardennes1944

Elneny :pac:

wonga77

and still cant keep a goddam clean sheet

Ardennes1944

If Pepe had finished that it would have been some goal after AMN and ESR!

DenMan

Cracking good goal from Flores. 1-2

tayto lover

Flores has scored some great goals this season.
Keeper could have done better.

Ardennes1944

Thats poor from Runarsson in my opinion

MonsterCookie

Jesus that mustafi fella is very composed on the ball isn’t he?!?

DenMan

The last thing we need is Cedric getting an injury. I hope nobody picks up an injury on this shambles of a pitch.

DenMan

Last 32 draw is on Monday @12pm.

Soups123

The co commentator on Virgin Media is absolute **** who is it, extremely unprofessional and bitter about the club

tayto lover

We have to be the worst team at taking corners, throw ins or free kicks.
Do they practice at all?

I was just thinking the very same thing. He's a Dundalk player as he was on at the start. Very disrespectful, especially to Mari whose won more than he ever will in his career. A complaint should be issued to Virgin Media about it imo. Laughing and sniggering about it too he was.

tayto lover

Lucky it’s not 2 all there.

Not watching that channel.
Who is it?

tastyt

No he’s not a Dundalk player

It’s Damien Delaney , ya he’s not great , obviously doesn’t like Arsenal

You’d expect more from a current player he took the piss out of a few, the neck of him given the level he plays at in comparison

Edit see it’s Delaney above, fool of a man and the reputation to boot

I've just been reading about him on Wikipedia. Hardly set the world alight and if you asked him he would have loved to have played for Arsenal.

Was an average at best player and fond of his own voice

tayto lover

Balugon is a big lad.

DenMan

Ceballos and Balogun on now.

Soups123

Another pretty awful attacking performance we’ve zero creativity. We’ve created fcek all

tayto lover

Terrible defending from Dundalk.

wonga77

Good hold up play there from Balugun

DenMan

Willock makes it 1-3.

Deeper Blue

That Dundalk keeper is dreadful

He can be brilliant and dreadful in the same game.
No consistency.

DenMan

This referee is letting Dundalk away with an awful lot in fairness.

tayto lover

The last 15 minutes of the season for Dundalk.
European football secured for next season and the FAI Cup,
Was a s**** season though with the Covid.

tayto lover

Another goal for Balugon.

Quazzie

Balogoal nets again!
