Absolutely - these frustrations amount over time, and I didn't intend to imply any ill-will. You won't find any argument from me, given my fondness of statistics and applicable mathematics, that each incident should be reviewed independent of previous occurrences. My point was restricted to "it...

Is it? Bournemouth penalty: https://streamable.com/84sv I see this argument often, big clubs get the decisions. I think it's applied more often than it is accurate. Bournemouth were given a soft penalty from a Wilson embellishment. Alexis was clearly tripped on the 18 yard box when played...

Pretty entertaining game from a neutral perspective. Manchester United began like much of the Arsenal game - "apparent" dominance without much created. After the goal, they've attacked more effectively and some good defensive plays by Ogbonna and Collins have kept it level. West Ham still look a...

Pogba booked for simulation. Mourinho loses composure and sent to the stands. The schadenfreude potential here is massive. Edit - Pogba probably shouldn't have been booked. He's been booked for being athletic enough to avoid having his legs clattered.

Monreal's arm shouldn't have been up, but that is ball to hand. Still, more of a penalty than the one given. Good, deserved three points after a tough fight from Bournemouth. Not a bad November by our standards.

Xhaka's passing is brilliant. If he sorts the discipline out, he'll be a massive player for us. Poor tackle by Alexis.

After replays, Wilson does very well to bounce off Monreal. Bournemoth have looked great since apart from a few lapses in concentration with the final product.

Soft penalty. Need to refocus, well in control before that and now all over the place.

I spoke in general, rather than just for Arsenal fans. The Wenger feud is an an example of his inability to let things go. It's transcended mind games, we're in obsession territory. Arsene isn't without fault, but look at the past 2-3 years. One has certainly been more proactive in voicing...

At least it'd be a new opponent to send us into our spiral.

When is Jack Butland supposed to start again? I know Grant has played fairly well and Butland has missed a lot of time, but surely he's too class to leave out for long.

Confirmed: Arsenal to beat PSG and then draw Bayern.

Funny, his inability to let things go is likely what invites half the abuse hurled his way.

Interim manager. He's there to steady the ship and ensure 2018 qualification. Biesla has been rumoured with Donovan as an assistant. Not sure it's the right fit, but they'd be more entertaining. Pulisic and Wood are both excellent players, particularly the former. Brooks and Yedlin and Green a...

Great night for everyone, mate. Spursdays return in the spring. :gmc:

Marco Reus hattrick in his first game back. If I could erase injuries from one player's history, I'd choose Reus. Imagine Germany the past two tournaments with him and Gundogan fit.

"Another two transfer windows to fix" Mate, you've just spent £35m and 200k/week on a player you refuse to play while also breaking the world transfer record. Edit: Forgot to mention the highest paid-player in the league, too.

Cheers! The charm offensive doesn't surprise me. He's, for better and worse, a loyalist to his cause. His clear passion for Arsenal has likely given him a longer leash with fans than would otherwise be granted. Re: goals, well he's scored a couple goal of the year contenders and winners, but I...

Drinking is detrimental to physical performance in the short and long term, but he shouldn't be vilified, particularly for an isolated night. Given his stature, the miles on his legss, and his lifestyle, I don't think many expected him to age gracefully as a player. This performance decline was...

Chelsea and Liverpool not having European commitments will certainly help. Having 7/8 starters play 90% of your league matches is a recipe for success, see Leicester City. Chelsea losing Costa for a sustained stretch could wreck them, given their dependence on his scoring in close games. The...
