Unusually poor at the back from us.
Leo!! Perfect finish. Martinelli having a great game so far!
Finally, Nelli gets a goal.
Nelli!!!
Martinelli! Great spot with Timber’s cross, great finish.
No way Vardy should have gotten a freekick for that. He tries to milk that and win the freekick
Martinelli needed that
Thought that was going in from Kai, ngl.
Loving Trossard’s energy
The lack of consistency in the yellows for delaying a restart is so frustrating. More bullshit from the refs “we have to call it” and then ignoring the next one.
They only seem to want to call it when it’s a) an Arsenal player and b) that player is already on a yellow. I swear they’re getting bonuses for sending players off this season.
Trossard, doesn’t always start but is absolutely crucial for us. What a player, what a signing.
No Benny Blanco? Dark Arts FC feeling empty today.
Raya
Saliba
Magalhaes
Timber
Calafiori
Rice
Partey
Trossard
Saka
Nelli
Havertz
Nelli gets an assist
Can we please transport this Saliba back to 2015 so he can take on Vardy then?
can we transport Havertz back so that he can score a fucking goal in lieu of Giroud
Ooh. That’s a good one! We really needed a goal scorer that season.
