I think you'll be ok by then, it looks like all the snow that comes today will be rained away tomorrow, unless of course that rain decides to be more snow.

Very cold morning, and a snowstorm arriving later. I'm actually supposed to be flying to the wet UK later, I just hope the snowstorm here doesn't put stop to that.

Oh, well.. Bring on 115 cunts in the final then..
I hate Newcastle but I hope they beat C115eh tonight with a very controversial last minute goal so we can see Baldiolas head explode..... twat
If Baldiola's head explodes, everyone in the dugout will be covered in phlegm and blood.. but mostly phlegm
King Colin Kanu was a master at it. I'll never forget that one (No2 here) against..uh...la Coruna or Celta i think it was where he gave the keeper twisted blood in front of us in the North Bank..

This is brilliant! Cheers, Sal
In other News Guardiola wants to see a rule change now so that Guehi can face us in the League cup final.
They are already operating in another ruleset so why not?
Fuck those cunts!

😂. I had opinions about this statement .
But I like DB so I said nothing. Fully expect Neville Carragher and co to start spouting this though.
I think who ever wins this final, goes on to win the prem.

Bars, pubs, sports bars ?

Well depends on the points difference between the teams. Hopefully we're so far ahead that the result hasn't much of an effect
I think who ever wins this final, goes on to win the prem.
And Trump's troops can't keep up.
Wonderful. It is stuff like this that gives me hope.
That's fucking excellent 🤣🤣🤣
Newcastle have their soft as shite XI out tonight sadly
Ooh, weirdly baldiola brings on Haaland, Cherki and Rodri while 5-1 up. Get kicking, barcodes!
Maim them!
Looks like Calafiori was on the pitch before the ball hits the net
Surprised the celebration police weren't called in.
Hope Cuntiola plays this back 4 consistently
Apart from Gooey they don't have much else at the moment.

Just seen a video of Rosenior yelling at Arsenal players to "stay in your own fucking half" during pregame warmups.
LOLZ
Really? More evidence that he and Neville attended the same courses, the creepy fucks.
Even though they've been awful, the Barcodes could have scored 2 or 3 themselves.
I wonder if Howe makes 5 subs at HT?
Let's not jump the gun here mate.
Hehehe
Fuck off, spectacled cunt!
It's our pitch, you stupid dumb fuck!
Fuck I hate that cunt. What an arrogant piece of shit he is
Been pissing down like a right cunt in London though
True, but it's like that though in most of our games, even after soaking it with the sprinklers I very rarely see our boys zip it about. It's rolled in like we're playing lawn bowls.
I guess we'll be playing 115 in the final then :/

They not only pass accurately but there is a real zip on the ball too. Yesterday, aside from the breakaway for the goal ,it was like the ball was being passed through thick maple syrup.
Their passing was nonexistent in the second half on Sunday. As it has been for significant periods this season.
Because they are massive cunts
Won't have a bad word said against massive cunts; only way I can be, ahem, accomodated!

We bore the brunt of that one trick.
Why the fuck do they always seem to pop canisters of Viagra before playing us but roll over meekly for the likes of City?

As has been said, both.
Newcastle's aged defence exposed but City's passing accuracy going forward has been outstanding.

how do they keep scoring those early goals? It seems like they've been scoring in the first 10-15 minutes a lot of late.
Pep's special sauce...

So both managers who were behind from the first legs have gone with five at the back? 🤯
That's because they are super-duper tactics whizzkids and not at all wearers of the Emperor's New Clothes.
So both managers who were behind from the first legs have gone with five at the back? 🤯
Makes sense, according to G. Neville.
That's because you don't stalk him like I do, Swiss.
Heh. true, BA
So both managers who were behind from the first legs have gone with five at the back? 🤯
Pity he didn't acknowledge the ball going out when they scored that controversial goal against us. Could have helped us win the title that season. So much for being a Hale End boy!
Probably not, but then a lot of our players pre the last four years or so have been mediocre at best.
Even ESR is on the bench most of the time at Fulham, same with Eddie at Palace.
I've not seen anything noteworthy.
That's because you don't stalk him like I do, Swiss.
Have any of our former parishioners actually done anything since leaving Arsenal, aside from Gnabry?

Agreed
Then it’s Madueke who at least will get a run in the team, but I expect the other three to be as stated.
I wouldn't mind if we used Havertz sparingly but in a deadly super-sub/ Not-so-secret weapon kinda way. 😅
Aye, you’re probably right. The optics of them cheering C115h goals and booing their own would be horrendous. Spuds, on the other hand …

They'll be a itching to beat man city I think.

Saka isn't currently fit. Talk is he won't be back until Tottenham.

Really hoping that with the positive vibes whoever plays on sat plays with freedom and energy and get us 3 pts. A buzz around the emirates should help as well
Any win will suffice, but obviously a big score with early goals would do wonders for our stress levels.
It keeps us comfortably clear of Villa, while putting extreme pressure on Citeh, pep and Rodri who are coping so well with that 🤣🫨

I think there was a question on the Arsecast the other week about whether the preference is to play before or after C115h. I definitely prefer playing before them rather than after. I hate that.
I would love to see a front three of Eze Gyökeres and Saka, with Havertz behind. But I suspect he’ll go Trossard Gyökeres Saka with Ødegaard behind.

Arteta has so many options that it’s difficult to stick with one combination. Maybe start Saturday with Odegaard, Madueke, Havertz and Trossard and see how it goes.

Indeed, you would hope there is a level of self-awareness from these guys that has previously been absent. I’m not sure some of them are capable of it.
and to be fair, the technical area line is a dashed line which means passing is allowed when safe to do so. 😏

Definitely some similarities but with Martinelli it's really cut and dry. Yes he's nicked the ball forward but Martinelli's got a clear run to latch onto it and he's scissored him to bring him down.
It was exactly the same as what Katie did on Sunday!
She got the ball first, but clattered into player. Ref said no, but VAR overruled her!
I mentioned this yesterday, it was very similar but I think it was actually worse than Katie's because she got the ball totally clear so the opponent couldn't possibly get it whereas Martinelli could (and would) very easily have gotten to the loose ball.

🏆🙏🏆
There was some kind of bullshit that he got the ball but the full human motion took Martinelli out. The total shit they come out with just to not give Arsenal a penalty is totally bewildering.
yep. He did get the ball but that argument might hold water if he got the ball cleared out of there but he didn't. the ball was still right there to be won and Martinelli would've won it had he not been taken out by the follow-through
A couple of thoughts in that final passage of play leading to Kai's goal.
-Kepa's long kick was atrocious. Moon balled it and it didn't even make it to the center line. For me you've got to start our best XI in the final.
-Dec's first time left footed cross was absolutely sensational right in stride.
Gosh if we can build on some of that league form from Leeds into the Sunderland match things will really be looking up.
And if Anfield gobbles up Pep well get the Vince McMahon meme ready.
I mean it also makes more space for attackers - so I'm sure we will adapt
defenders already can't contain Big Gabby. Giving him extra space to move seems like a fools errand.
Running the whole game time
there was a moment late on after he moved to the right where he went full speed rushing the keeper and I had to do a double take to be sure it was him, "holy shit, is that Martinelli STILL giving 'er?"
I quite enjoyed the commentary I had for the women's final. Not boisterous perhaps but professional. just one lady, alone, no nonsense, no real bias. Even talking about the penalty was pretty neutr...
I didn't have a real issue with the penalty. Very risky challenge- playing with fire when really there was little danger in that position.
The couldn't be more satisfying!
It actually could... just a tiny bit. he looked away at just the wrong moment and missed Havertz pointing at the badge.
Will the Micky Mousers be cheering on their own team or C115h, given how much they don't want us to win the title?
Football coverage is and has been in the pits for a decade or so. The lack of professionalism - a basic requirement for any job - is embarrassing.

If Havertz scores the winner in the final, I'm going to refer to the trophy as Kairabao Cup 😁
An Arteta masterclass. 😏😂 That game played out exactly the way I expected. Lock it down, if they can't score, we win. Not super entertaining, perhaps, but apparently effective.
It felt so surreal the comms gushing over Rosenior's own supposed masterclass. You NEED a goal so go with a defensive shell formation... brilliant! well played! 🙄

Seems like a decent smart guy. Time will tell whether he can deal with the pressure at a big club. I mean Mikel's got his lightbulb speech which wasn't exactly Winston Churchill lol.
Good Christ it's real, I mean this is like watching the Office again
I just find Rosenior hilarious...the glasses, the coat, that stupid fucking quizzical pout he wears and the cringe worthy shite he talks
I don't have an issue with him. Used to enjoy reading his column in the Guardian where he came across as thoughtful and worldly. As one of the few black managers in top flight football, I hope he does okay (as long as it's not against us, of course!) so that a few more are given opportunities to have a go.
I do not often find myself agreeing with Paul Merson but he was spot on when he said at HT if Chelsea don't score in the first 35 minutes they've lost the tie. Rosenior for England coach at the 2034 WC, you read it here first

It was because Given said about it on MOTD
He was clearly instructed by Baldiola. The big Donegal wanker

Fucking morons. That's the level of discussion in football we get in England nowadays.
I expect more from the Beeb, but then they have Rooney spouting his Fergie era bullshit as well.
Our attacking set-pieces is ine thing, but why cant we leave someone up on the halfway line when we're defending. So many games end up with us defending our own box for the last ten minutes and being unable to get out, last night was another ase in point. It was crying out for Martinelli to be stationed on half way and play to his pace.

I got achilles tendinopathy in August (painful) did the usual-chiropractor,exercises etc(couldn't run for 3 months)

Cheers Jack.
Not done that.
But broadly speaking, the Achilles is ok-ish now (well, still painful just after a run), evolving in the right direction (over 11 months since the injury/op now :-O), but it really is the knee-shit now that is stalling me and means that over the last two months, instead of having been able to step up the end of rehab, I feel more or less stuck (apart from the amount of running that we are increasing again, just over 8km at once today was not an issue at all).
I remember a brief period last season when teams did that, but it didn't last at all
Oh yes, that's true. Can't remember exactly when/who but it did happen indeed and was highlighted.
I really am amused though at the BBC saying LinkedInior copied their idea or something.
It's very frustrating. First 40 min straight run today, I can run OK, at a relatively decent pace of 5'14/km, and without much pain if I adopt a steady rhythm on a flat-ish course. And yet I'm still d...

I've been lake swimming all winter, 3.5 degrees at the coldest temperature, before the swim-the achilles painful-after swim not a problem.

No doubt that the chaos caused by so many players in the box is a factor on our effectiveness but at the end of the day the biggest factors are the quality of the delivery and the quality we have on the receiving end.
Let's see how it plays out but I doubt there is much there in this tactic.

Seems insane to me that the strategy we use of our big players overcrowding the box can be countered by fewer opposition defenders in that box. I get that our two centre-backs are heavily involved so their hope is to spring a counter, but it seems a bit crazy to be playing with us like that. But never mind, Sam Matterface called it genius!
I remember a brief period last season when teams did that, but it didn't last at all
No it didn't last at all. Ultimately the practical thing to do is send players back and leave your big boys in the box which theoretically still gives you the advantage as the superior set piece team. I'd love to see us call their bluff though lol.

Will be interesting to see how Mikel and Jover deal with that strategy going forward because they absolutely will. Personally I'd probably play it short and approach the box with a three man advantage and watch those players scramble back.
There is no excessive amount of times of stating this.
Truth has no expiry date.
John Terry is a cunt, also.

And sheep burning.
Bloody hell. TalkShite reckoning that we should be more than capable of winning a treble this season, and they don’t sound as if they are saying it through gritted teeth
They’re just hoping to set us up for a fall.
Way too early to be lauding up multiple pots at this stage. Any one match can go tits up - just see the late goals we’ve conceded à la Sunderland, Liverpool, Utd. Sure, we’re capable, but it’s hugely dependent on a bit of luck; 100% concentration; referee moments and worldies from the opposition.
Concentrate on the league for now. Be boring cliche, one game at a time, blah blah blah and ignore the outside noise
They've even removed the 'crowd noise only' option on Canal+.

I don't think Chelsea's formation was altogether counter-intuitive. They set up to press the life out of us... but they were staid and toothless offensively.

“ Which, I think, would have been fair enough really. If you’ve got to score, and your gameplan is, for the most part, about containment of the opposition than actually trying to score, then I think you’re open to some criticism. On the one hand, I get that you might decide not to come to Arsenal and open up, but the risk you take when you go that route is that you make the decisive part of the game too short. Why try and score for 90 minutes when you can do it for 30 minutes instead?”
This is, to be fair, exactly what we did at Anfield in ‘89. Nobody remembers or cares about the nothingy first half in a game where we needed two goals because we did the business in the second.
Chelsea didn’t. It’s a somewhat risky strategy for the away team, but not an entirely unreasonable one, especially when you consider that our defence has been a bit uncharacteristically shaky of late, and Chelsea have about 30 notionally zippy and/or proactive attackers available to them. But yeah they couldn’t pull it off, we were just too good (apparently. didn’t watch, going to have to find a dodgy stream for the final - been a while since I’ve had to do that).
Right boys, we play three at the back and five in midfield, and we hold out for penalties
Durrr, Boss, we’re losing 3-2
Shut it, I’m the tactical genius round here
heh, mind you, I'd love the other one to appear in the Epstein files :-D
Last Arse!
- Edu back in the day: "Uuuuh, a curly-haired Chelsea player with dubious defence qualities? I think I will..."
- The Art: "The fuck you are!!"
Never been very keen on the other one either.
Obviously respect him as a football manager but always felt he was a graceless man.
The Invincibles were "scrappers", Thierry "a flat track bully"
Steven Gerard on his retirement " never a top player".
Seldom does one see such bitterness in one so successful.
My favorite bit yesterday was when Gabi could have scored, but in stead tried to smash that woolly haired cunt's face off.
10/10 would see again!
Apologies for the X link, but this is too funny, John Terry in his Chelsea tracksuit, filming himself in front of his TV in the final minute thinking Chelsea would do it, only to be crushed at the end by Havertz.

Unrelated but - the Andrew formely known as Prince forlornly riding his steed through the dawn mizzle in Windsor yesterday. My princedom for a horse. WTF. More sinned against than sinning? Was the riding hat with a stripe that made him look like a big penis supposed to be ironic ?
Edward's comments-bizarre-was he implying his brother was also a victim? Is Fergie the most craven person alive?
Don't get me started on Trump - or Melanoma or the fucking Beckhams or Boris and Carrie Johnson or Mandleson or the Murdochs. Thank goodness for Gabi and Leo and the sunshine coming in the window..
Bloody hell. TalkShite reckoning that we should be more than capable of winning a treble this season, and they don’t sound as if they are saying it through gritted teeth
I have a huge soft spot for both Trossard and Martinelli.
Which makes me permanently conflicted about the line-ups.
They can take turns running the opposing right-back ragged, knowing that they don't have to conserve their stamina for 90 minutes because the other one is waiting to take over. I remember towards the end of yesterday's game, I don't know whether Timber had got caught upfield or, more likely, that he'd gone to help the central defenders, but Martinelli found himself one on one defending our right flank in an orthodox right-back position. He did pretty well, too. Even when he has a stinker up front, which is becoming rarer, he contributes with his defensive work, and never seems to run out of juice.
Sam Matterface's best line last night "Arsenal are keeping Chelsea at an arm’s bay here”

Yep.
I mean he can certainly improve many aspects of his game but when you're there, the amount of work you see him put in is monstrous
He's been exceptional attacking and defending. There was a run he did in the last minute across the pitch to defend a ball that showed so much commitment. I can only imagine watching him week in week out. Deserves my apology!
His pace was exceptional. He's having his best season. To think I screamed that I didn't want him at my club after the opening game against Liverpool. Some sublime goals and now he's looking dangerous...

On the tactics. Didn't we basically do the same thing against Liverpool in 1989 when we needed to score *two* goals? 5 at the back, keep it tight, 0-0 at half-time... Granted, we cut it quite fine. :)

His pace was exceptional. He's having his best season. To think I screamed that I didn't want him at my club after the opening game against Liverpool. Some sublime goals and now he's looking dangerous whenever he receives. Final ball still needs a bit of work, but he's a dangerous winger right now.
Yup, we need to talk about Eberechi.
Eze is good but he needs to impose himself. (Blimey I'm almost veering into Ebeneezer Goode by the Shamen there!-

I definitely think there's a fear of losing the ball. He was very secure last night and didn't try to take on the defenders tight on him when you feel he wants to. There's always the risk it doesn't work out. But there are moments where he's freer, but usually has two or three defenders around him, because it's that well defended space which Gyökeres suffers with too.
I think the Eze-Havertz-Gyökeres combo for that cup goal was instructive. It was three direct passes, Eze's was from deep, to Havertz in that key zone who passed straight into Gyökeres making the run he loves to make. We need more of that.

E's refined e's sublime E makes you feel fine...though much maligned and misunderstood..Eze good, Eze good) Anyway that aside we need to get more out of him. It was almost like the only time he was able to mark a mark was against Sp*rs and his ex Club Palace.
We have had other players over the years who often disappointed but fulfilled their promise in that derby atmosphere- Charlie Nicholas and Tony Woodcock spring to mind. It's an obvious point but I wonder if he is struggling to feel free and express himself while adhering to Mikel's disciplined approach. His costly defensive lapse agianst Villa has only compounded this.

Morning all!
Well in hazza.
Yesterday's strategic masterplan was cooked up by one Lionel Hutz, who after distinguished career in the legal profession in Springfield, is now giving it a go in managing a PL side.
I was having this chat about Eze with a woman who sits next to me last night. He needs to realise he's at a proper big club now and demand the ball, demand to run the game. No-one is going to hand it...
I agree with this as well. We know where he does the most damage and he needs the ball in those areas. I do think that Rice and Zubimendi could look for the direct ball into him a bit more, but they all seem to want to play it safe. Madueke and Martinelli too could look to get it into him first, because he's the one who, if he's facing goal in that area outside the box, can find the ball to the front three. It's not happening with Eze or Ødegaard enough either. Havertz is the only one who seems able to receive in those spaces.
I enjoyed Lee Dixon last night on commentary, he was using a lot of descriptive words for Cucurella because he knew he couldn't get away with calling him a cunt on live tv. "tenacious little player" = cunt. "Awkward little player" = cunt.
Absolutely. Wasn't a natural follow through. Martinelli had ridden the first legal challenge and the ball had broken for him. The defender raised the leg that was following through to trip him.
Exactly the ball broke towards the goal which Martinelli could have followed until he was tripped. Neville didnt mention that as it wasn't in the "master plan"
As for the front three not working, I think it's more about individual issues. Madueke was not able to get a run on Cucurella and seems to rely on pushing the ball ahead and using his pace and strengt...
I was having this chat about Eze with a woman who sits next to me last night. He needs to realise he's at a proper big club now and demand the ball, demand to run the game. No-one is going to hand it to him on a plate, show some personality to be the man. He's got huge talent, but tends to drift around and not make the most of it.
As for the front three not working, I think it's more about individual issues. Madueke was not able to get a run on Cucurella and seems to rely on pushing the ball ahead and using his pace and strength to beat the defender. Still not enough artfulness to his play. Martinelli did better, but the issue is more about that 10 role and how it affects Gyökeres. Eze kept receiving deep with his back to goal and defenders on him. The team as a whole are still not getting those through balls for Gyökeres to run on to, which is his meat and drink. Havertz so far is the only one who has managed to do it, which is why I was a bit surprised Arteta subbed Gyökeres for Havertz, but in the end it turned out to be the right choice. If we crack that channel, there's no team that can stop us. Please keep Havertz injury-free till the end of the season.
That argument is bollocks, the defender deliberately tripped Martinelli after the ball broke forward from the first challenge. But if we get a few go our way because of them evening out throughout the...

Good morning everyone. Well in hazza
The feeling you get is that the var team looked at intent. Did the defender try to bring martinelli down vs did he prevent us from attacking the goal with a high boot.
No way should that be considered not a clear and obvious error.
Also some of the grabbing during corners. Surprised not more pens are not awarded. Had my heart in mouth moments yesterday when saliba was defending.
I saw the rugby tackle on haaland the other day. Var is letting a lot go these days.
Gotta be careful not giving var a chance to influence our results
I thought so, so was Neville on Sky?

It was ITV
I don't know which channel I was watching, but I had Sam Matterface and Lee Dixon, who was unusually compliant with the narrative of "Chelsea masterplan". At one point, Matterface described the Chelsea tactic of countering our corner routine, where we crowd the area with our physical dominance and perfect delivery by sending three Chelsea players running towards our goal as some kind of genius play.
I ws nervous, our front three were still not getting the ball, because we still haven't found a way to get Eze receiving on the turn or in space in near the box, but another defensive masterclass and Hincapié, as raw an impulsive as he can be sometimes, deserves praise next to the other three generals and Rice who again was imperious.
And Havertz with the rapier finish at the end. Absolutely perfect! Wembley here we come!

Nice interview with Lee Dixon on radio 5 just now. Was asked about the game not being particularly pleasing to the eye. He spoke about his time in a team that was known as one nil to the Arsenal. He said they gave the ball to Wright who would score and then the defence shut up shop and they won the game. As a player they didn’t care a jot about how the game looked and he said they gave current team wouldn’t care either

There was some kind of bullshit that he got the ball but the full human motion took Martinelli out. The total shit they come out with just to not give Arsenal a penalty is totally bewildering.
It will possibly have an effect in future if other clubs start using it
I mean it also makes more space for attackers - so I'm sure we will adapt
Looks like Ethan got away with it yesterday due to no VAR at this stage of the French Cup, oops.

I think Chelsea's biggest mistake and the reason for their gameplan was that they were convinced they drew the first leg 2-3 so only needed to win 0-0 in the second leg.

Arse,
Well in, lads. Try to make it a bit more enjoyable next time though eh? 5-0 would have been appreciated.
It's good not living in the U.K, or probably an English-speaking country generally. Swedish commentators aren't at all infected by all the bias and agendas and bantz, and just commentate. Sometimes they get excited when they see a former Gooner in the stands, that's fine by me.
