But Arsenal usually finish the job when they score first.
What an idiot Lamptey is, should have kicked him in the chest to get away with it.

We are the only title contender who canāt win at Brighton. The last time we did it, we won the league!
Brighton donāt seem to be bothered unlike last week.
Also Man City havenāt played Brighton yet.

To be fair Iām sure most neutrals watched our game against Brighton and just thought Brighton werenāt interested.
If someone played against our rivals for nearly an hour without registering a shot (after they scored the opener) weād be accusing them of not caring.

It would make much more sense though especially away.
Probably shouldnāt have less of an expected goal average than last week away at Anfield.

Arsenal will be around til the end of the season. They simply donāt give up a lot of chances which is going to keep you in games. Defensively they are very very solid

Lee Dixon very outspoken over here to say it wasnāt a penalty.
Anyway, the ref gave it, itās only 1-0, game on. Plenty to fight for second half.
When was the last time some team turned the game around against Arsenal? Specifically, when did Brighton do it against any top sideā¦
Not good enough by Brighton here. Playing like a team fighting against relegation.
Yep, credit where itās due, Arteta has them playing very well, and as a very organized and cohesive unit. They are difficult to play against, and they create plenty of chances for themselves.
Arsenal did things the correct way after realizing that loading up on expensive, big-name marquee signings was not going to get them anywhere. They allowed Arteta to come in, clear out the overpriced shite (Ozil, Auba, Laca, Willian, etc.), focus on young promising, hungry players, and instill a style of play that has seen them go from mid-table mediocrity to genuine title contenders competing with Klopp and Pep, as well as going fairly deep into the CL this season.
Essentially, Arteta and Arsenal have done what Man United should have been looking to do 4 or 5 years ago. Instead, United have continued to follow the same idiotic pattern and are paying the price for it, both financially and on the pitch.

Let them cook. If they can hang around and keep it at 1-0, they might be able to shithouse a late goal from a set piece or penno. 1-1 would be a huge result for them.
2-0
Haha @PeachesEnRegalia
Stupid ugly cunt.

Weāre not going to get any help at all from the rest of the league. Will take us winning out the rest of the way.
Very tall order.
Thatās that then
Time to switch over to Dortmund vs Stuttgart.
I was going to go out in half an hour. As it happens Iām free right now! 2-0 Iāve seen enough.
Annoyingly a very good performance from Arsenal. They always look so compact, Brighton have looked pretty clueless in terms of how to get through them in this second half.
