Predicted LineUp:

Away at Arsenal...we've won the last two encounters...so are due a shellacking.  They've strengthened notably this season, as well as being on form.  That said, we'll clearly play on the counter and expect out line up to largely be the same as for Everton.

Areola

KWP   Mavropanos   Kilman   Diouf

Fernandes    Magassa   Paqueta

Bowen   Fullkrug   Summerville

 

Subs: Hermansen, Igor, Scrales, Irving, Potts, Rodriguez, Marshall, Guilherme, Wilson

Predicted Score:
Arsenal: 2
West Ham: 0

Have we had a single shot on goal!

No

[kylay]

Fernandes has not covered himself in glory today

[Nutsin]

Wis that our first corner on the 88th minute?

Have we had a single shot on goal!

[goose]

Just end this game now please, we’re not going to score & they don’t want anymore injuries.

referee has been pathetic today.

[twoleftfeet]

blatantly outside the box

 

yep but they can argue it continued into the box

This. Doesn’t matter where it starts if they enter the box it’s a penalty. Shit foul from a shit defender.

The amount of dumb arse posters in here is phenomenal 

[stubbo-admin]

We have to be realistic. Not one of our players would get in their squadet alone team. Bowen looks like he's lost half a yard of sharpness. 

They're just dramatically better than we are and it shows. Difference between a club run properly, and a club run like a hobby.

[southbankbornnbred]

There is SO much work to do with this team.

Arsenal are very strong - the consequence of having hundreds of millions to spend every window - but we are poor.

We’ve signed badly over the past few years, and there’s not a huge amount of proven quality in this squad (some promise, of course).

I reckon Nuno stands a better chance than most managers. But this season will continue to be a struggle. He’s got his work cut out.

[kylay]

see this is where VAR can be subjective in grey areas. It can be outside the box on one day or a foul that continues into the box on another, entirely at the whim of the VAR referee.

 

 

Maybe I've misunderstood the law, but I have always known it to be that the foul is where contact begins. Not where it ends or continues and also not open to interpretation. Otherwise, you encourage players to flail into the box, not that Arsenal need any encouragement. 

[Maverick180180]

Kilman’s an embarrassment 

[kylay]

Areola is unbelievably bad at distribution. What's particularly galling is that it's not as though you cannot develop that part of your game. Probably one of the easier things to fix.

[Sir Alf]

Paqueta’  end product versus the times he gives it back to the opposition?  Im not seeing a positive case for him recently

[Takashi Miike]

it's possibly the bleakest time in our history. I said before potter was sacked that little can change as long as that midget cսnt continues to stink out the boardroom, it's desperate times

[claypole]

Arsenal have got away with murder. Weak referee.

[Massive Attack]

Now Paqueta can't take a simple throw-in.

Embarrassing.

[Sir Alf]

Marshall causes them to pass it out.  We still need more pace in this team

 

[cholo]

Honestly thought any moment that var was going to intervene. Stevie Wonder would've overturned that one. 

[Iron Duke]

Clearly outside the box, but the media have already whitewashed over it.

[wils]

As I said earlier defensively Diouf is bad. Gets in to awful positions time and again.

 

 

 

 

Diouf has been dreadful. Looks distracted and lethargic. Can’t understand why he wasn't hooked at half time. Let alone still on the pitch with 20 mins left. 

[nychammer]

cant disagree its outside.... but seems nobody else even questioned it

[Electric Retro-pants]

Foul outside the box is a penalty...just how the merry fuck?

[goose]

Can we bin off Paqueta please.

[joe royal]

Now watch Marshall haring after the ball. Wouldn't surprise me to see him score for us.

 

That worked well.

[cholo]

Blatantly outside the box. I guess it's Arsenal's turn to win the league this season.
