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


Recommended Posts

Their prick of a manager should be embarrassed that he's reduced a very talented, expensively-assembled squad to effectively play like a rugby team.

 

Also, I've never judged Declan Rice to be anything more than a good player. It's absolutely farcical squad management that he cost more than Tonali + Guimaraes combined (and then some) imo.

Thought Arsenal were worse tonight than Spurs were on Saturday. Particularly in the second half. 

 

We were brilliant but it's one of those that could have went either way. Havertz and Martinelli both should have scored and they missed chances from headers. Hey-ho, that's the way it goes. I'd have been alright with a 1-0 loss tonight. 2-0 is dreamland.

Says we're the best team that's come to the Emirates this season. 

Prefer my gig at talkSPORT over this nonsense. A Harry Potter character being interviewed by a man who by the looks of him just ate an entire McDonald’s. Not for me this.

Would have been very happy with 2-0 from a home leg, would have taken 0-0. That's just fantastic though. 

Might even have been confident about the tie as a whole if we'd pulled off one of them near one on one situations at the end.

Ipswich fans.  They are lovely proper fans.

I think Arsenal are now the club I hate the most in the league. 

 

They way they go on, every player the manager, the set piece nonce that thinks it's OK to walk 30 outside of the technical area to give free kick instructions. Such a shitbag of club

Yep never thought I’d hate a club more than Liverpool, but Arsenal have done it.

I don't have a problem in saying Newcastle are a nasty team in the same way Arsenal are - and the way that any team in 2024 has to be, in order not to be soft, or to get pushed around.

 

The primary difference is the very sincere pearl-clutching reaction they have to being on the receiving end of what is usually a milder dosage of their own medicine.

 

I actually still like Saka and a few other Arsenal players, but Arteta is utterly rotten.

Long shots and half-chances from scrambles from your brutalist set plays is the antethesis of being creative.

Joe Kinner was doing that on a budget 30years ago.

 

Sounds from the Spurs and Arsenal fans like Flange and Arteta are under increasing pressure and not impressing people that watch them regularly - can only presume this is why they've been prize arseholes this week.

The PL ball would've gone straight in the net off Havertz's shoulder.

best chance this brilliant team performance created all match - a deflection up in the air followed by their man heading his own shoulder after the ball had gone.
