It's Back! - First games of the season (8/8/15)

[peekay]

Wijnaldum puts Newcastle 2-1 Southampton.

Nice counterattacking goal.

 

[Markeh]

He did buy Gabriel Paulista from Villarreal last season though; though I think he was using him at RB for a while to cover for the injured Debuchy. I think.

That would be the guy that broke Wilshere in training? 😀

 

[Oncy]

The medic just wanked onto Tomkins forehead.

 

[FoxForceFive]

They keep saying that goal came out of nowhere.

He had no one pressing him, no one getting in between him & the goal, he took two touches & turned before he hit it.

That's not out of nowhere by any means.

The free kick dummy could break Wilshere in training.

 

[cloggypop]

Giroud with a few hairs out of place there. Not sure he can continue.

 

[Rosco]

And Arsenal did go two years unbeaten with Mertesacker and Koscielny together

I rate Koscielny quite highly but now and again he has a touch of the Lovrens about him

 

[FoxForceFive]

Arsenal fans showing their class there. A 16 year old lad embarrasses them in their own ground playing astonishingly well on his debut, & you couldn't see one of them clapping him.

He'd have got clapped off at Anfield.

 

[FoxForceFive]

I rate Koscielny quite highly but now and again he has a touch of the Lovrens about him

Hahaha. A touch of the Lovrens. I'm gonna use that one.

 

[FoxForceFive]

Come on Southampton, last minute winner please.

 

[Leo]

He looks a phenomenal talent.
Roy Hodgson will ruin him eventually though.

 

[hamstrung_pigeon]

Anyone else think Cech should've come for that earlier? If Sakho hadn't finished like weak piss, it'd have been 3-0.

 

[Judge Jules]

Giroud looks wrecked

Ogbonna's owned him this afternoon.

 

[Markeh]

Hahaha. A touch of the Lovrens. I'm gonna use that one.

feel free, hopefully it turns into a compliment some day

 

[FoxForceFive]

Anyone else think Cech should've come for that earlier? If Sakho hadn't finished like weak piss, it'd have been 3-0.

Yep, I think cech has slowed just enough that he's lost a slight edge, & playing in front of such an incompetent defence his decision making is nowhere near what it was at Chelsea (understandably perhaps).

 

[Markeh]

Ogbonna's owned him this afternoon.

they've looked pretty solid, to be honest I was semi expecting West Ham to be shite

 

[FoxForceFive]

Wow the hell was he allowed to get a corner there? Fuck me.

 

[Fabio]

they've looked pretty solid, to be honest I was semi expecting West Ham to be shite

They've been playing competitive games for 5 weeks, and it's showed

 

[FoxForceFive]

Fucking hell, he's just walked through their midfield & got a shot off without getting challenged too.

Their defence looks marginally worse than ours last season.

 

[Markeh]

They've been playing competitive games for 5 weeks, and it's showed

good point but given the results and the red cards I had sort of assumed it wasn't going that well

 

[Markeh]

Sanchez will be scoring those in a few weeks

 

[the count]

I wonder who Payet will be playing for next season?
Spurs probably.

 

[Oncy]

Arsenal have been really bad. Like terrible really

 

[Markeh]

I wonder who Payet will be playing for next season?
Spurs probably.

the highest bidder

 

[Leo]

Hahahahahahaha.
The boos start already.
Fantastic stuff.

 

[Frogfish]

Arsenal are officially alone at the bottom of the league.

 

[Markeh]

they really miss Sanchez

 

[Shadey]

If thats what getting knocked out of the Europa league does for you then bring it on.

Do we even have to play in it?!
