Arsenal been in complete control, good goals from corners but you've got to question how bad Palace have been. Arsenal have barely tried to win this game and they're 3-0 up. Gotta say Arsenal's problems in open play still look a problem even with them pushing on now 3-0 up with Trossard's goal. But defensively they've been solid which they haven't been the last couple months. Arsenal's two best chances in open play (one being the goal) have come from David Raya.

Good from the ref letting that go, I hate it when players lean into defenders and then get a foul because they fell over

Expecting tonights team to look something like the below, I'll be surprised if we play a back 3 against Forest. Not sure how we manage Pinnock, Collins and Mee. Collins starts everytime, so does Pinnock, but so did Mee last season. A good selection headache to have. Lewis-Potter - Toney - Dasilva Damsgaard - Janelt - Jensen Reguillon - Pinnock - Collins - Ajer Flekken

He's just answered the question asked of him, really a non-issue. If it weren't for the ban he would not be at the club this season, in fact most fans thought he'd be gone in January anyway, the club are open to selling if we get the right bid, Toney is open to leaving if we accept the right bid and the fans know this is our model and it's what's given us success.

In Sydney maybe, cold air and asthmatic lungs dont do so well here

You’re severely underestimating my asthma but the way injuries have worked this season I’m probably not far off

Fabrizio reporting its a done deal. Good to get a left back in, he will be the 7th player to play at left back for us this season.

Doing well on career mode but these problems are still pretty heavy. Also the amount of random bounces the ball takes off my players to the CPUs is crazy. It does feel like to make it harder they’ve made certain aspects worst rather than just the CPU being hard to play against

With his management style and style of play he seems too outdated to manage at a high level at club level. Should move into international management imo where his style is still relevant at the highest level

Mate there is nothing sustainable about Forest’s spending in the slightest

Boxings a funny sport. Smith is one of those fighters thats probably been held up to a standard higher than he is and then that all gets shown up against a great fighter like Beterbiev or Canelo. Hearn knows how to promote a fighter, I remember him talking about Smith fighting at a higher standard when the fighter is a higher standard and it never made sense as surely great fighters turn up for most fights regardless. He’s not exactly an entertaining fighter either so you dont know where he goes from here, at least fighters like Whyte and Chisora go to war, you tune in for that and hope for the best.

What is the sensible middle ground? Because so far it's just remove FFP and let Newcastle and whoever else can get a nation state behind them spend to win the title. Which is exactly what we had 15 years ago. Personally I think European football as a whole needs a massive rethink, English football especially. Clubs like Chelsea shouldn't be able to find amortization loopholes that can allow them to blow a billion in a year, City shouldn't be financially doped to the level they are....but the answer isn't to remove the restrictions that prevent more teams from doing that. Because not only will it further increase the financial disparity in the league, we'll get more Portsmouth's and Leeds United's. Aston Villa should be a big fat warning onto themselves, they know what happened last time under Lerner and now they're desperate to go again under new ownership.

It’s funny because everyone used to complain about the top 4 and how Chelsea came in and just splashed the cash up the table. And now the answer is return to those days and just create a new top 5 that will be decided by who has a billion quid spare, all in the name of “fair competition”. Genuinely can’t believe we’re having a conversation where people think Newcastle are being hard done by, absolutely crazy.

At this point we just need a body in at left back now Rico is out all season, he's played 20 games over the last two seasons which is concerning as I don't know if he's shit, the clubs he's been at have been shit, if the manager's he's been managed by are shit or if it's a wonderful concoction of all three. Still it'll be good to have a natural wing-back in and if there is talent in him hopefully Frank is the man to get him back on track. At the very least it means we have options when both Hickey and Ajer aren't fit. https://www.lequipe.fr/Football/Actualites/Transferts-sergio-reguilon-tottenham-vers-brentford/1441995

Agree with this whole heartedly but also

hahahahaha

Apparently they're still within the 3 year losses permitted

Very sad news, to know something is terminal too. I’d rather just get taken out of the blue than know its coming

I just hope he goes somewhere in the right system, similar to Bielsa, get the best out of him because there is a class player in there and as much as we talk about Rice now, Rice doesn’t have Phillips passing range or ability to find one.

Haha I didnt know there was a difference tbh. Most fans now are just after engagement, so either set themselves up as a banter account or set themselves up a serious, analytical account that dont know how to analyse footy.

Tbh half of it is just twitter fans being weird more than actual Arsenal fans

Heynckes had a belter of a treble winning side there too

Bit of a random post but is there another manager out there that can match or maybe just falls behind Ancelotti for longevity at the top? Obviously he's never had the consistency that a Ferguson, Mourinho or Guardiola had in terms of dominating divisions, but there's a 19 year gap between his first Champions League title and his last. And it feels like that will increase again in the coming years, not to mention he holds the most wins as manager for the Champions League/European Cup. Considering how hard Ferguson found it to go up against Guardiola, considering how much Mourinho has dropped off since Guardiola changed the face of European and global football, Jurgen Klopp in there too, it's impressive how well Ancelotti has managed to keep pace with the evolutions of tactics and also player power and still managed to win major competitions over a 23 year managerial career.

So they essentially sacked Eustace for Mowbray....which makes you think, what was the point?

The shove to the chest is a clear yellow, was a strange one. Even stranger Arsenal fans celebrating considering he gave away a free kick and lost the game.
