Arsenal 0-2 Newcastle United (07/01/25)

On the other hand, Botman in the team of the week in just his second start after 18 months out is amazing like, he really is a pretty special player and can't wait for him to be at full strength

Ever blame the ball, King? @Alan Pardew

Look I may have said some things that were wrong and stupid in hindsight but you all would have done the same if you were frustrated with a loss and being asked those annoying questions from the reporters. 
 

The ball though… The King wouldn’t blame that.

Rice?! Because he took some corners????  

 

Was caught ball watching and didn't follow Isak for the second goal.

Jacob Murphy described as "sublime" and "sensational". This is peak "Is this the Real Life" meme . Fair play to wor Jacob, of course. Goes to show what confidence, momentum, and playing a settled team can do for on-pitch chemistry and understanding. Murph and Dubs just mirror Chris Wood and Mats Sels at this juncture.

Murphy is properly elite in one very specific area, and then genuinely quite terrible in another.

 

If he was just a bit better in possession whilst under pressure, I'd never want him to be replaced. 

 

His creativity in the final third, I don't think you can do much better.

I quite like these tactics videos, but I always feel it's worth remembering that if the game's tactics were exactly the same but they were the ones who took their chances and won 2-0, ther's be a ton of videos about the genius way Arteta broke Newcastle's defence.

Southampton being more middle class, the Notting Hill festival, sure, but not the ball. Never.

Had a vivid dream about us being in the final last night  Gordon scoring the winning penalty in a shootout 

[STM]

 

 

Had no idea that he'd pulled Gordon back first, before doing the same to Isak. That's two yellow cards in one move.

 

Arsenal and Arteta really want STFU in future. Biggest cunts going right now.

[Yorkie]

Kinda no beef really. It's top shithousery. Arsenal fans should own it.
