Man, Garnacho seems like a worse finisher than Jesus lol

Fucking hell, it's an all United panel(and Merson) on Sky sports.
Guess who's on it too🤣🤣🤣🤣
- Spoiler, it's Wazza.
  
  Looking like some former brick layer. It's insane how much he doesn't look like a former footballer.
- All these ex-Man United players turned pundits are like cockroaches. They just keep appearing on mass and spew out shit. And when one goes away another two appear.

Kaissist again 😋
- I like the term xD

literally his own fault lol
- He steps on our guy and Old Trafford calls for a penalty. Least it's not under SAF cuz you KNOW that would've been given.
  
  Facts

Trossard!!!!!!

So when are we getting Jorginho to come on

Tomiyasu piledriver
we'll be there 😭

Maybe I've been looking at the radioactive zebra kit wrong... maybe it's meant to be camouflage this whole time...
- camoflage in a radioactive fallout?
  
  It feels like that with the sun blaring down on it, haha

booking for taking too long on a goal kick in injury time, my fucking keeper

I like how a literal kid plays ahead of the spinning top

I'm just saying, when Liverpool beat them 7-0 they also only had 1 goal in the first half
- but time is running out and we don't have the best counter attacking group out there
  
  I think this is main point for me. We're not as good on the break.

Howdy all! COYG! :)
- Lez do dis.

I don't disagree that Raya has done a fantastic job. But how can you say definitively that Ramsdale wouldn't have grown as a player playing more consistently and done as good a job. To say Raya has "won" feels ridiculous to mention.
- I get it. We all love Ramsdale, but there's not much room for experimentation when you're trying to beat Man City to the PL.
  
  Should've played him in the Champions League.
  
  Not this City team... sigh
- The save just before you posted this was so dodgy. Even if he didn't catch the ball, pushing it into the middle of the six yard box is insane.
  
  He's not been perfect for sure. I think he's benefited from having Saliba and Gabriel in front of him, which is what you want as a keeper anyway.
- Raya won based on the new Arteta requirements for the position
  
  I can agree with that. But I don't feel like that's what the commentator was basing his comment off of

TROSSSARDDDDD
- I want to smash them so badly

The Saliba stat of potentially being the only player who has played every game for Arsenal is astounding

They don't even have a style, it's just "pass it forward and pray someone's there to receive it"
- Same as it ever was

Gary Neville probably asking for a red rn

Only away fans audible rn
- I was thinking that earlier too. But I wasn't sure if that was just how the ground was micced up and it was the home fans that sounded like away fans

Rice man shoot it yourself sometimes
- @Astrealix I blame David Moyes for drilling him into playing too cautiously for the last few years.
  
  Tbf, can't blame him. Have you seen West Ham lately? XD

We had Partey and Chenko as starters last szn
- How could the defence not crumble

Is it Nelli time yet
- I would love an in form blitkreig Nelli
- Now it is!

Tell me he's not injured

That slope there can't be safe. How is that legal?
- it's been injuring opposition players for decades now
- @Astrealix I was thinking that earlier when Tomi had to mind his footwork on the sideline. seems really dangerous
- Lucky it wasn't raining when Saka slid down Everest
- I was thinking the same...

Raya catching and falling in the first half when we're up 1-0? Hmmm

We look so dodgy with Partey in the team
- He definitely looks a little off pace
- No way he stays past the summer
  
  Yeah, he's an interesting one... I could see the club being open to offers for sure.
- Jorgi at HT? And we score 4 more
  
  I think we're more defensively solid with either Rice or Jorginho playing at 6. Even with Havertz at 8, we look a lot less fragile than with Partey in.

Nice baiting the press

Partey wake up ffs lol
- he's good for a few of them unfortunately

Declan's getting one today.

Has Garnacho had a shot on target yet? Good defending from White, of course, but lol.

That challenge looked nasty
- it sure did

Don't piss me off. You're gonna hold your knee because you stood on someone's foot?
- Was thinking that too... trying to sell it too much.
  There was one in the Burnley game with like 4 mins to go. Another Burnely player came along and pretty much dragged him to his feet. Looked ridiculous, lol

Yanited playing so well, I hope 10Hag gets ten more years

You can just seen the contrast between our defenders and theirs between that from Saliba and that on Havertz lol

Look better this half.
- So far, anyway XD

Here comes the rain, do do do do

running a half-fit Saka into the ground for a second season running
- Just two games left, we need him on, he's our best player.
  
  Sadly, only way Saka gets subbed under Arteta is if he's injured
  
  we have Jesus

blud away fans have gone ballistic with the chanting

Terrible by Saka there

Should've scored

We've not exactly started well
- Well, we technically the very beginning started well. Not so much since the 3rd minute xD

This match feels like constipation
- What if you reeeeally like constipation

hooooo that's the old Martinelli back, just need to bury that.

Get Partey off please ffs

this game is very worrying ngl, playing into their style a bit

Martinelli bought a save

Massive by Saliba

It's like we don't have a means to change the game state when the game isn't going our way.
- like stuff rolling down a slope

United heavily water that side of the pitch? xD

Ohh, get up you wet flannel

Their left side has played fairly well

Nelli!! I felt maybe he should have hit sooner

Oooo... ambitious from Tomiyasu!

Here's the man himself! :)

I'm getting over these Kane-like challenges for aerials...

Tomi not having a good day
