Re: Barnes goal last night

BBC’s description ‘unconventional finish’ Is rather understating the technique.

Re: Tonight’s Football

From BBC:

Arsenal are the second team to net at least five goals in three successive top flight away matches, after Burnley in September 1961 (6-2 at Birmingham City, 6-2 at Leicester City, 5-3 at Fulham).

Tough slog but small shoots of optimism. If you’re into all that, we actually had a reasonably similar xG to City. We do create chances but guilty of not taking them, Amdouni in particular.

Poor management from Heckingbottom. As soon as he'd got away with a yellow for the first assault his manager should have replaced him. It was blatantly obvious that he was a red waiting to happen.
