***Treble Winners v Arsenal Official Match Thread***

[Redna]

That said Taylor is a knobhead of the highest order.

[blues2win]

Raya taking his sweet time.

[Nigels Tackle]

josko man of the half for us says it all
jose arteta parking the fucking bus has made for a seriously dull affair

[ayrshireblue]

Raya taking his sweet time.

Yet only two minutes of injury time, with a player down for an injury and the substitution. Strange but not strange.

[Redna]

Every 50/50 goes to The Arse, courtesy of Taylor.

We look a bit like average Joe.

They are smothering us. The master needs to out-think the apprentice

[CTID Hants]

That cunt Ben White looks like he's been tango'd, obviously doesn't look in the mirror in the morning. Since when was a pantomime villain an actual look?

Pathetic excuse for a human being!

They have all back around the box, blocking us. Hardly smothering us , we don't seem to be too concerned at the moment.

Gvardiol is too negative so far.

Referee being a knobhead today. Arsenal kicking lumps out of us and fouling at will. We get pinged for slightest foul. Half time and we have had the best of it but Haaland needs to step up now. We need him more than ever. Sorry to see Ake leave the pitch. Akanji has fuck up written all over him.
VAR card to play a part.
Thought Jesus should have been booked in first 5 mins , when he wasn't Arsenal knew the ref was on their side. Gabriel targetting KDB, Jesus continuing to kick lumps out of Bernardo

Once we go ahead it will be nine minutes extra time.

Three Arse players should be on yellows.

[Indianablue]

Arteta tactic is obvious, do not lose. At best hit them on the break

[blues2win]

Defences on top, mainly Arsenal’s. Anthony Taylor an absolute disgrace. Difficult to create much against a deep well marshalled defence able to foul at will as necessary. Time for a Rodri rocket?

[Sparklehorse]

I will guarantee you that we get the first yellow card. Our best hope is that arse open up a bit, we’ll never get through with them sitting back…..mind you we usually find a way.

[stevefromdonny]

we do need to be a fucking lot quicker, just passing about between pen area and halfway line, arsenal attack and they go with 3-4 players, no passing back but busting a gut to get in to area, need more balls into area, and haaland needs to get into the game

[PeterParker]

Saying this is shit would be a compliment.

I blame Gundogan's and his missus.

[john@staustell]

0 0 good result at this rate

[Nigels Tackle]

time for pep to earn his money with the half time team talk

[sheblue]

I worry that idiot Taylor will do us.

[blues2win]

COME ON CITY!!!!!!!!

[nottsblue]

If Grealish is fit he needs to be introduced soon. And Alvarez for Haaland as well
