What the actual fuck is that red card

That is some fucking BULLSHIT. HOWWWWW!????!?!?

That is not a foul. Holy fuck was that a bad call.

So, that's 3 left back options that are unavailable for the next PL match (interestingly, none of them are really left backs).

• Zinchenko: short-term injury
• Timber: long-term injury
• Tomiyasu: suspension

I wonder who option #4 is? Probably Kiwior, even though he also isn't a left back?

I would like to see Zinchenko and Trossard come on... This experiment isn't quite working

I don't want to overreact, but Zinchenko came on and we basically started controlling the game, even with 10 men

That wasn’t even a foul + Ayew actually has made two yellow card fouls and is still on the pitch.

What a bullshit second yellow card. Ref has lost his fucking mind.

Oh wow, look at that! What a promising counter, if not for Eddie being fouled. I wonder if there's something that we could do to discourage players from doing that?

I just want a comfortable win. Hopefully the upcoming weekend but I'll settle for it being the United game.

Another perfect last grasp tackle from Saliba.

Roy Hodgson seems like a good sport.

I don't get why we are playing with partey in defense and tomiyasu on his weaker side.

I get zinchenko is just coming back from injury but Tierney can't even make the bench? Put partey in with rice and have havertz come in off the bench if needed.

We don't look very fluid right now and having partey cleaning up in the midfield behind rice and odegaard would be really useful

ONE NIL TO THE ARSENAL

Partey man, I'm telling you. He's itching to give the ball away.

Arteta looks fucking pissed

So, Arsenal effectively finished the game with 3 CBs, 4 CMs a winger, and a ?Forward? (Havertz)

• CB: Gabriel, Saliba, Kiwior
• CM: Partey, Rice, Jorginho, Zinchenko
• Saka, Havertz

Interesting for a team that wasn't playing a 3-at-the-back formation at any point.

There was no fucking contact wth

So they're still not punishing goalkeepers for taking five years to take a goal kick?

Yo Mikel's hair has gotten more gray

Oh thank god we held on.

Mikel, pleaaaase do not try anything new Saturday. We were very lucky CP don't have any finishers.

I'm very ticked off about Tomiyasu's two yellows.

Partey did well after the red card

I'm very curious to hear what Arteta has to say about the anti-time-wasting stuff they've implemented.

There you go, proper Arsenal matchday.

Oh fuck....

Party looks uncomfortable in that right corner.

Love seeing Declan and Tomi shouting instructions on the pitch...

And there goes the Saliba chant

HOLD THE BALL

HOLY FUCK IT'S HAPPENING

Sorry work, its going to be a slow afternoon for me. Not surprised to see the same line up, and hopefully we continue to build on out season with another win.

Crystal Palace are not a bad team.

Rice lose a contact lense? I never consider footballers have them.

I don't know why Arteta doesn't make some changes at the hour mark. Trossard for Nketiah, even Gabriel for Tommy.

You get some fresh legs up top, and a solid defense.

Tangent: Holy shit we're lucky.

It's kind of funny to watch defenders dance along while marking Martin, and then stumble because they can't keep up
