Other Matches Thread

As we're unlikely to see terraces again at football, this is the virtual equivalent where you can chat to your hearts content about all football matters and, obviously, Arsenal in particular. This forum encourages all Gooners to visit and contribute so please keep it respectful, clean and topical.

Is Calafiori playing?
Came on off the bench and according to the general media played very well and was as solid as a rock :barscarf:

Thanks, OBG. The Arsenal player page has been acting like it's on dial-up lately so i'll check it tomorrow for highlights and see if it's any better.

Take a look at the Havertz effort at 2:30 mins. Anyone still think we don't need a goalscorer?

Yes and he's quite right, because if we had a striker who could convert the chances that Jesus and Havetz miss, that would really disrupt the team.

But also, if we sign one top striker it would suddenly mean we would now magically have twelve strikers just standing around waiting for crosses to come in. Apparently.

If Rinus Michels were still alive, he'd be green with envy at the degree of football know-how on this forum. :lol: :wink:

Just to add, the stadium is really starting to look its age. It felt unloved and shoddy yesterday and the sooner it’s redeveloped or at least given a good spruce up, the better.

The seats are all pink rather than red, the concourses are filthy, as are the walkways around the seats. Over the summer I’d have thought at least a pressure washer could’ve been out, but no. The banners that surround the seating levels are all faded and one of the jumbotron screen things had a broken panel in it.

Some love is definitely needed to bring it up to a decent standard.

It’s carbon neutral not to clean the stadium or renovate it.

Wait till the LGBTQ & Woke Brigade start 'Fussing' and 'Moaning' then the club will have to install Rainbow Coloured Seating

A City player has suffered a suspected broken leg in training. That’s why they are in for Bruno Guimaraes.
