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.

Makes you wonder whether Ollie Watkins regrets turning down his boyhood club in January. Could be playing up front for us. I'm sure he'll think about it when he's playing in the Europa Conference on a Thursday afternoin away in Armenia come November.
Wasn’t aware he did. Thought Villa rejected the bid.

He's a Gooner...since childhood... and he wanted to take the deal, but they (Emery - with an Axe to grind) made it impossible, then fucked him over for Rashford the Champagne School meals hero. :?

Only saw last few minutes. What was the story with Rashford? He wasn't even on the bench.
But he did turn up at the boxing last night. If I was a Villa fan I would be very pissed off to see a player out enjoying himself a few hours after a humiliation. I know he wasn't playing and technically isn't a Villa player, but seeing him laughing and joking would be hard to take.

Is it possible to ignore all football and news until Tuesday evening? I will watch GAA today, so that sorts out Sunday and will fly off to Spain early Tuesday. So mainly tomorrow. I can’t bear the :puke: fest that will occur come 6pm this evening for 48 hours. Well maybe the next 12 months.

Linighans there!!

Nigh on impossible unless you take yourself off to a Deserted Island or one of those Antarctic Research Facilities. What with all the media sucking Slot's cock and raving on about Salah being the new Messi :roll: :banghead: Then of course there will be all those Job-shy Gobshyte scousers phoning in every regular sports station on some mobile they've just stolen with their whiney phlegm gargling voices saying "Ow der da greatest yooo know like laaaah!' :banghead: :roll:

The only way to get any joy from it will be to lump on Liverpool at 1/5. Like getting 20% interest on savings.

Anyone else see the clear VAR fraud at Bournemouth? The Far Eastern betting syndicate behind this all must be more wealthy than Warren Buffett.

Straight red for dangerous play for a clear slip. Total accident.
