None of the ones around me have BT Sport and don't normally have a problem with it. Found a decent one now though. Scrap that, no Michael Owen on commentary - a brilliant one.

Great ball from Sanchez, good recovery from Sanogo and RAMSEY :barscarf: :barscarf: :barscarf: How many CMs have we had in the past decade who would have been up there in that counter-attack? His all-round game has improved massively but so much is down to his positioning and drive to get on the end of attacks.

It must be really hurting Michael Owen to give us all this praise! At least we've got Wrighty at half-time. COYG!

Sanchez will be some player when he gets some quality around him up top. Unfortunately twice in the last few minutes he was let down a bit by Sanogo - firstly making a daft run when we were 2 on 2 and then over-hitting what was a relatively simple through ball given the space. City are scared shitless when he runs at them.

sonogo actually looks more menacing than puffy hair giroud does. if he could get his feet sorted out i think he could be pretty good.

Rambo starts as he finished last season.

Going to be our outstanding player for years to come I hope. :barscarf:

Our passing is incredibly crisp and positive for pre-season, early days but there seems to be a real confidence in the side which is great to see.

It must be a pre-season thing because City are the same but we're very open on the break. Ramsey must not be stopped from getting forward but I think we're going to have a problem if we consistently leave Arteta to play the lone defensive midfielder role.

Chambers needs time and support to settle, tough start for the lad so far.
