Completely agree. The longer he remains there the longer they will never be a threat for the title.

Awful second half to watch.

Sane was incredible in the first half and whomever on here said Bernardo might have the best ball control in the league is probably corrext

Excellent away performance. Killed the game first half.
Then controlled the second half. We're really improving week by week.

As I was out last night I watched the game very late as if live not knowing anything. What airst half and I find myself wanting to watch the 3 goals again and again.

Sane at his very best involved with all 3. Boxed in it seemed for the first one but moments later he had wrigglde away across the box to find Silva. A nice run by Kevin took Kos out of the way so nobody was in position to stop Bernado doing what he did.

Sane again seemingly boxed in for the 2nd but with defenders thinking he might try the same again he goes down the wing to cross the ball to Kun. His touch was perfect for the onrunning Silva and 2 nil. Perfaction.

Was the last goal the best? It seemed to me again that Arsenal were trying really hard to press and win the ball back but we were pinging it about so well with great first/second touches and then suddenly Kun breaks away and its 3 nil. Where did Walker come from! and what great movement from Sane.

And how sad did Martin Tyler sound.

Great summary as usual DH, also oozing emotions as it gets.
I agree on the third being possibly, the best of three crown gems: on match thread I dared an odd analogy with a driving maul try, as much as it summed up sparkling collective team effort and dominance.

I think all three goals had extraordinary qualities about them... first goal Sane’s dribble and of course great finish.
Second goal Silva’s touch. Third goal Aguero’s turn !!!
Sublime :D

Sane's goal was sublime. It wasn't the goal itself, that looked fairly lucky, it was the build up that was fucking awesome. That's one of them where they should take the opposition away, like that Rag V Arse goal, and just show the passing movement.

Cheers buddy, can watch that over and over again. As I say, sublime, and that little touch from Aguero, just tears their defence apart.

That touch and burst of acceleration was vintage Aguero, brilliant to see, the most impressive thing about that passing sequence was that Arsenal were pressing hard, everything had to be done at pace and we made it look easy, exquisite.

I love it when teams press us high and fast up the pitch thinking that’s the answer :lol: Last season we may have panicked but this season when the likes of Spurs and Arsenal did that we were very calm and composed. I love seeing it.
