Premier League 2025/26

Have to say I watched him in La Liga and wasn’t sold on him.

I thought las season that the Arsenal game model is not advancing. IMO its reached its limit and is not growing. Just more of the same thing…

It’s even more boring this season.

But interesting how the game is balanced tactically with roles reversed wrt possession and shape without possession…

The 2 nil against Villa and the 3-3 against Southampton in the season where the gave up the 8 point lead has scared Arteta.

How many per team are allowed to talk to the ref?

Send them both off and get on with the game ref, it’s not hard.

Referee is weak, allowing players to crowd him.

I assumed it was still the captain and potentially offending player….

He has been on fire every year except last season when he got that nasty injury. He didn’t ever recover from that and I remember I wrote here that they used him too early last season. Now he is like before his injury; an absolute monster. On the Norwegian national team, in the last games, he has been a titan. Of course, there are some fools who claims he doesn’t play well against the best teams, but that is nonsense and has always been nonsense.

Since they are all really offensive and repulsive players…I guess it’s logical they could all “talk” to the ref. :wink:

Apparently Haaland thinks the referee can’t blow for half time, until City have taken their corner.

Arsenal 0-1 Man City

You get the feeling that the game is faster than Gyokeres is. You compare him to Haaland, which is a bit unfair but those are the two centre forwards on the pitch, one can go past people while the other is being left behind.

Stoke vs WBA vibes here all around.

In short, Gyorkeres isn’t good enough.

Sunderland V Palace - Monday night - Pardew V Big Sam.

Literally the worst thing I’ve ever watched that labelled itself as football.

Even Barnet V Newport on a cold Saturday in December had decent half time food.

If results stands, it’s starting to be a considerable number of points down;)

I don’t think Spurs will be up there at the end of the season, but I may be wrong. Bournemouth almost certainly not.

Arsenal ain’t half dull. 4 CBs and 3 DMs makes for boring footy.

Think city will be very dangerous this season, Donnarumma a season changing signing for them and Haaland seems to be in great form.
