Bellerin looks the spitting image of Adrien Brody in The Pianist

How Schite are Arsenal,they don't seem interested..

Vegas Claret · Post by **Vegas Claret** » Sat Feb 11, 2017 1:01 pm

they have no focal point up front, get in good positions and have nobody in the middle

Vegas Claret · Post by **Vegas Claret** » Sat Feb 11, 2017 1:03 pm

get in 1-0 gooners

Vegas Claret · Post by **Vegas Claret** » Sat Feb 11, 2017 1:04 pm

another in off the hand for Arsenal !

conyoviejo · Post by **conyoviejo** » Sat Feb 11, 2017 1:05 pm

Phook me they get away with murder do these southern softees ..like the score though..

Dyched · Post by **Dyched** » Sat Feb 11, 2017 1:05 pm

They may as well start playing ******* basketball

Devils_Advocate · Post by **Devils_Advocate** » Sat Feb 11, 2017 1:06 pm

They should sign Vokes he'd fit in perfectly

Just glad rest are not as good as him.

I think we should be having another go for Robertson in the Summer looks a good'n going forward.

Vegas Claret · Post by **Vegas Claret** » Sat Feb 11, 2017 1:17 pm

zero chance now, if he goes in summer there will be plenty in for him and we'll have the Snodgrass issue, larger wages paid by bigger clubs

FactualFrank · Post by **FactualFrank** » Sat Feb 11, 2017 1:27 pm

Arsenal need another. I still fancy Hull to grab something.

Vegas Claret · Post by **Vegas Claret** » Sat Feb 11, 2017 1:37 pm

Hull have improved massively under their new manager

FactualFrank · Post by **FactualFrank** » Sat Feb 11, 2017 1:39 pm

Yep. It'll certainly be a tough game against them.

Vegas Claret · Post by **Vegas Claret** » Sat Feb 11, 2017 1:41 pm

Walcott v Maguire, hilarious

Dyched · Post by **Dyched** » Sat Feb 11, 2017 1:41 pm

Haha Walcotts had a couple of bacardi breezers at half time and trying it on with a pair of bouncers

Vegas Claret · Post by **Vegas Claret** » Sat Feb 11, 2017 1:43 pm

I've seen more than enough from Hull to suggest they'll get more than enough points to stay up

Dyched · Post by **Dyched** » Sat Feb 11, 2017 1:51 pm

I do hope Hulls performances over the last few weeks are a result of raising their game against the "bigger" teams

Vegas Claret · Post by **Vegas Claret** » Sat Feb 11, 2017 1:53 pm

yeah maybe
biggest games this weekend are Boro v Everton and Swansea v Leicester. Everton win and a draw in the other would be perfect

And let's not forget, we've been playing really well of late.

Vegas Claret · Post by **Vegas Claret** » Sat Feb 11, 2017 2:01 pm

could do with getting Wellbeck on, Arsenal are very poor today

Buxtonclaret · Post by **Buxtonclaret** » Sat Feb 11, 2017 2:04 pm

Come on, Arse.
Need another.

Vegas Claret · Post by **Vegas Claret** » Sat Feb 11, 2017 2:04 pm

certainly do

Vegas Claret · Post by **Vegas Claret** » Sat Feb 11, 2017 2:06 pm

I can see why there are a lot of Arsenal fans that want rid of Wenger

Buxtonclaret · Post by **Buxtonclaret** » Sat Feb 11, 2017 2:10 pm

Can see Hull nicking a point here.

Vegas Claret · Post by **Vegas Claret** » Sat Feb 11, 2017 2:13 pm

sitter missed by Hull, free header

Vegas Claret · Post by **Vegas Claret** » Sat Feb 11, 2017 2:17 pm

penalty arsenal and red card clucas

Buxtonclaret · Post by **Buxtonclaret** » Sat Feb 11, 2017 2:18 pm

Pen

That'll do.

simonclaret · Post by **simonclaret** » Sat Feb 11, 2017 2:19 pm

Keeper's fault for rushing out with zero chance of meeting the ball.

Vegas Claret · Post by **Vegas Claret** » Sat Feb 11, 2017 2:19 pm

2-0 get in

FactualFrank · Post by **FactualFrank** » Sat Feb 11, 2017 2:20 pm

Nice for them to have a player out for the game against us, as well.

Ric_C · Post by **Ric_C** » Sat Feb 11, 2017 2:22 pm

Will Clucas miss the game against us?

Vegas Claret · Post by **Vegas Claret** » Sat Feb 11, 2017 2:22 pm

good start to the weekend

Buxtonclaret · Post by **Buxtonclaret** » Sat Feb 11, 2017 2:23 pm

Bit more confidence upfront and some better deliveries, could have been different.
Be tough away to Hull, but still reckon we can get something.

Yes

I expect Boro, Palace and Sunderland to lose today, which would be nice.

Vegas Claret · Post by **Vegas Claret** » Sat Feb 11, 2017 2:29 pm

Southampton can't score, I reckon Sunderland could win. We definitely need an Everton and Stoke win

FactualFrank · Post by **FactualFrank** » Sat Feb 11, 2017 2:33 pm

I can see Sunderland getting a point.

Claretmatt4 · Post by **Claretmatt4** » Sat Feb 11, 2017 2:34 pm

Palace decent away from home, Southampton have been on the beach in the league for months. Everton probably going to beat Boro mind

ClaretTony · Post by **ClaretTony** » Sat Feb 11, 2017 2:35 pm

Arsenal are playing nowhere near the level they should be

Vegas Claret · Post by **Vegas Claret** » Sat Feb 11, 2017 2:37 pm

"Southampton have been on the beach in the league for months"

they are below us, it's a big game for them today. Hoping for a Jay Rod hat-trick if I'm honest !

Bayern must be bricking it

Dyched · Post by **Dyched** » Sat Feb 11, 2017 2:40 pm

I think it was Merson who said this week that Arsenal look as though they get sent out with the same tactics regardless of the opposition. They look great every 6/7 games against lesser opposition. Today they were poor as they usually are.
