About as comprehensive a half of football that we’ve produced this season. Outstanding.

Questionable front post marking from that corner. Excellent finish though.
Clear penalty from me, created by the press. Really needed that 4th. Clinical from Saka, that was unsavable.
Trossard off the deflection by Merino. 5-1. Absolutely deserved.
That was magnificent from Arsenal, an excellent away European night. Particularly for the travelling fans.
5-1 and I felt it could’ve been more, this was joyous football at times. Odegaard imperious. Saka and Martinelli a constant threat. Partey probably have his best and most consistent run in his Arsenal career.
Raya with some key moments too. He has a very strong hand when he makes those saves, he keeps them out by not deflecting it back into the danger area. He tips them wide or over the bar. It’s those 1% differences that make all the difference. He’s essential to everything Arsenal are planning to do.
8 goals scored since the restart, and plenty of players back now fighting for places and getting involved with minutes. Some real signs of momentum here for Arsenal. Yes ****ing please.

Can't be bothered trawling through old posts in regards to Martin Odegaard and when we got him back from R.Madrid.....anyway, best mid in Europe, Real would be spewing watching him.

Outstanding win.
Shame that city seem to be off the rails now. We may have given Liverpool too big a lead to catch. They were fortunate against Southampton so don’t think they have played well recently but they seem to be grinding things out. City doing us a favour is needed this weekend though.

Difficult to completely appreciate with the 3am start but ....

Ødegaard just makes it all work. He is a superb world class player, and it's such a pleasure to watch him.
It was a good effort keeping Goyokores goalless in the game.

Home to Monaco, home to Zagreb, then away to Girona are the 3 remaining CL fixtures. Without taking anything for granted, Arsenal should very much be aiming for maximum points in those matches to finish in the top 8 of the table.
Hoping it’s just a knock for Gabriel. Bloke is a monster at both ends of the pitch, a real handful for anyone to contend with. The mimic of Gyokeres’ celebration was a nice unexpected piece of shithousery haha.

Well that was quite a wild first half.
Gabriel perhaps injured in that collision? Big half for Kiwior coming up.
Hasn’t always been pretty this half but it didn’t need to be. Completely snuffed them out here.
Would’ve liked another one just to say we’ve hit them for 6 twice in 2024. However that’s not relevant really, the 3 points are. A weirdly fractious match where west ham lost their shit a few times.
Another brilliant performance and boost to GD. Very reminiscent of that turn of the year form where Arsenal went on a run of battering teams and emptying stadiums.
A host of goal scorers once again Saka and Odegaard imperious. Saka is finding more levels to his game which is lovely to see unfold.
More players from the squad being integrated with key minutes, such as all of a sudden Jorginho is back running the midfield.
13 goals scored in a week. United at home next Thursday. More of this please Arsenal, outstanding stuff.

Yes it’s a bit a of a quirk in the fixtures now that travel is going to be limited for the next few weeks. After a lot of tough away fixtures earlier in the season. The key is to lean into the squad which Arteta is doing, as we need to be careful managing the minutes of Timber and Calafiori in particular. There’s a lot of minutes available here.
According to Arteta, both Gabriel and Calafiori were managed, which is comforting to know. Timber has to stay fit while White and Tomiyasu recover. That's a bit of a worry heading into December. Especially if Partey has a niggle too.
Really hope Jesus scores soon. He's such a 'nearly man' at the moment.

Saka’s goal and assist contribution is quite normalised to Arsenal fans isn’t it, with his level of consistency. Absolutely essential to manage him accordingly as he’s the difference maker.
Really liking the new strip
