Arsenal - v - Leeds United ***Matchday Thread***

Apologies Belfast, didn't mean to offend. Was just confused, but did figure it out - too late.

Quite liked Arsenal in the 1990s when they moaned less and had a quality side that just got on with it and didn’t dive and wings (Pires aside) but they moan, whinge and try to con the ref all over the pitch at the moment and seem to have a sense of entitlement not backed up by results.

Agreed. Under Wenger, arsenal were a very clean team with a certain character when they played. This Arsenal team is unrecognizable from that. There of course has been heavy turnover of players and new manager which is the obvious explanation. Apparently, the club have Champions League aspirations this season. I hope today, Leeds will disengage them from this fantasy.

Baggies leading Manure. Let's see how well Big Sam's boys can park the 16 wheeler.

That is the sort of game where you wish it was possible for both teams to lose - MU for obvious reasons but WBA as don’t want them to put a run together and make it more stressful for our survival.

I think that would worry Newcastle fans more - Man U equalised now and I think there will be more, surprised if WBA finish with 11 men one or two silly tackles, Gallagher on a yellow and to his credit he's still going for it, but needs to be careful

Quite like WBA but think they were very silly to sack Bilic and not a fan of SA - would happily have Barcodes swap places with the blades

Final comment not in keeping with your name HO!

No way are we going to get dragged into the bottom 3 with the shower already there... Newcastle and Saints more likely to get pulled in by Fulham whom are the only one of the three who I feel could possibly escape the driop,

Keep the faith!

Agree we won’t be dragged in but still makes it more comfortable if bottom 3 don’t win

Agreed, we might not finish top ten (think that's just unrealistic), but no way are we so fragile that those below will put anything together to stop us staying in the PL.

Nevertheless, would be great to get another 3 points today!
