Match Day Arsenal v Man City, Thursday 1st March 19:45

Match chat.

City were able to despatch Arsenal ridiculously easily in the League Cup Final on Sunday. I can't imagine Arsenal rolling over so tamely again. Surely they will come out fighting on Thursday.

 

[SALTIRE]

Arsenal should have more about them this time around, but it still won't be enough to cope with City's pressing, movement and passing and I can see them winning by a few goals once again.

 

[Cornish Piskie]

I think you're probably right, Salty. City are a pleasure to watch. But to see Arsenal capitulate as they did on Sunday was sad. I just hope they make City work a bit harder this time.....

 

[Benji]

Arsenal's bench is woeful. If they don't start well I'll be surprised if they trouble City at all.

On the other hand, it'd be very Arsenal to play brilliantly and win 2-0.

 

[Pickleman1967]

My forecast was 1-3 for this, I think I'll stick with that. Arsenal bound to show more than they did in the cup final if there is ANYTHING about them. Some of the comments made by fans and pundits after that result must have stung. If it didn't Arsenal have deeper problems than anyone imagined, I don't believe that is the case, but I still think Man City's class will prevail.

 

[villa loyal]

Very empty tonight.

 

[Benji]

Slightly tone-deaf interpretation of the League Cup final from Arsene.

 

[silkyman]

Is this some sort of protest from Arsenal fans or are they just REALLY crap at dealing with a bit of snow?

Arsenal already playing much better and looking more of a threat.

 

[silkyman]

Crikey. Pick that fucker out.

 

[Pickleman1967]

Great build up, fantastic understanding between the players, I'm no fan of Citeh but that was an impressive first goal...

 

[silkyman]

Tyler and Neville sound like they are at a funeral.

 

[Benji]

Good team goal for the second. I'm just wondering if City will be cautious or go for a big scoreline becuase it seems to be up to them.

 

[silkyman]

Another absolute beauty.

It would be nice to see Jesus and Foden getting more minutes under their belts.

 

[Pickleman1967]

Hmm, that second goal was annoyingly good even if it does break the hearts of thousands of Gooners. Citeh are making it look ridiculously easy.

 

[Benji]

Far too easy third goal.

Actually maybe harsh, only error is Bellerin not being able to stop quick enough.

 

[silkyman]

Haha! So much for the big Arsenal fightback! (This post may cause a big arsenal fightback)

 

[Pickleman1967]

Oh, for f*ck's sake, three up and the Arse look like helpless kittens...

 

[Super_horns]

Well Arsenal probably didn't think it could get any worse!

 

[Pickleman1967]

Okay, let me confess I was still secretly hoping Citeh would implode somehow, and Tottenham would steal the league on the last day. Fat chance, I'm just going to have to revert to laughing at the Goonerverse imploding...

 

[Benji]

Ramsey is at least managing to look good in this disaster zone of a team.

 

[SALTIRE]

Dunno whose more quiet the Arsenal fans that bothered to show up, or the supposed City away support.

 

[Leewilson]

A midfield of De Bruyne, Gundogan and Silva is a passing dream.

Glad Gundogan is getting game time. Blinding passer too and works his bollocks off.

 

[Bilo]

I genuinely feel sorry for the arsenal fans.

 

[SALTIRE]

I don't.

 

[Bartonyellow]

Let me guess. First goal offside. Second goal a foul and the third goal was handball?

 

[Blitzballer]

Time to fuck off Wenger. any other manager in that position at any other club would have had the bullet long ago. It's like he's fucking invincible

The clubs rotten to the core and those in power dont care.
