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.

Isak with two first half goals . There were a lot of doubters on here about us signing him a year or two ago .

Just htf could Arteta sell that clown the feather and not replace him , what the fuck was he thinking .

Have to say too didn’t realise how few goals Rice and Odergaard have scored but still if we had a striker even a journeyman well there’s no point going on about it !! Arteta is responsible for this shambles



Tbf though, nobody was doubting Isak's ability, but we cannot ignore his injury record - if any club spent massive money on a player with a bad injury record and it didnt pan out then they would be slated, but if a team with as many injuries as we do did it, then there would be hell to pay

It also needs to be recognised that yes he scored another two goals today, but one was a penalty and the other took huge deflection off defender
Ok Augie I am just really pissed off that we ended up in this situation , I still feel it was there for the taking but yes his injury record hasn’t been good and no doubt will have sky rocketed at Arsenal like every other *word censored* ,

And I am with you 100% on the feeling pissed off bit - even those of us that knew we wouldnt win the league this season are still seriously pissed off today, and as others have said already, that is more down to the fact that we dont see anything changing anytime soon. Sid (in his new guise :wink: ) has suggested that it is time for legohead to look at himself in the mirror and walk away - there is more chance of mila kunis ringing me up looking for a shag tonight :cry: The cone boy has the same god like complex that the french cock had all those years ago, and his period of reflection this season will focus on injuries and poor officiating and nothing else

Agreed and tbf the time to grab him was at Sociedad unless their favourite son passed up the opportunity because he didn’t get good feedback from the hierarchy.

Barbie not in the cheaty squad. It doesn’t matter anymore now but fuck me every single thing that could go in the victims favour this season has happened. You couldn’t fucking script it.

Forest have capitulated. From 1-0 to 4-1 down after 35mins. Shocking game management
I assume they need a pick me up fixture in the next few days.
4-3 now. They may not need it

If we spent 120 mill on Isak this summer he’d spent 80% of next season crocked guaranteed

Great second half effort by Forest

I can imagine us doing that 4-1 down up there, geed up by that fearless captain of ours

Seems like all those years of whinging to and blaming God for Everything (including the Juventus 39) and those Candle lit vigils has finally paid off.

Based on this showing, Forest will dispatch us with minimum fuss. Odour v Calafiori, it’s not going to be pretty.
