Didn't concede before half that so that's one hurdle over.

Really need to get a goal soon cos they'll end up nicking it if not

Decent first half. Created some good chances. Keep it going second half.

Looked brilliant at the back of end of the first half. Start like that in the second and the 3 points are there for the taking. UTC!!!

Happy with that. Agree we need to get one, they score, they'll just shut up shop.

Pretty good performance so far. Shows what we can do when we don't stand back and start admiring teams.

Some dodgy moments in defence though, won't get away with those forever.

Happy so far

They are technically better than us, but you've got to be happy with our first half performance. I complain about our midfield giving the ball away too much but fair play today we have worked as three separate units working well together. They still look like they could score, but you never know...come on you Clarets.

A good half that, absolutely no complaints from me. If anything we have been the better side since the opening 15 minutes.

Aubamayeng should have buried that one great chance. We not only pressed but drove the ball forward well. I just hope that arsenal doesnt get some dodgy penalty.... they certainly fall over enough

They’ll come out fast, like they did first half, soak that up for 10mins then we can build into the game and win this.
SD coaching a great game so far.

Do feel we need a goal to secure a result. Won't get many more lives with Aubameyang. We have come close, just lacking the final move to the attack.

He does have a habit of producing at precisely when the pressure on him as it its highest. Got to respect it :lol:

I swear I saw an imaginary ambulance a couple of times in the first half, to go along with all of their imaginary knock downs and injuries.

The bloke that keeps hugging Wood all the time is annoying as well, couldn't he just send flowers after the match if he wants a date.

Lowton runs into a boulder of granite and gets a freekick.

Excellent delivery from Westwood and Tarkowski almost scores.

Excellent from Taylor running down the wing winning another freekick.

Two arsenal yellows in 2 min.

Great cross, Rodriguez gets far too much on it.

Common Burnley we are making them look like ****.

Arsenal with a chance but no composure from Martinelli. Should have got a shot away but Lowton defended so well.
