Learnt quite a few things today…

We were denied a stonewall penalty at the Bridge that even ex refs were baffled how it wasn’t given as it was a blatant handball that stopped us having a shot at goal or a chance by them extending there arm to stop us having a big chance. None of this unlucky handball rubbish you see.

Chelsea had a shot goalbound blocked by Arsenal outstretched arm and usually that is a penalty.

So Arsenal had luck with VAR and ex refs and everyone apart from the VAR team and ref thought it was a clear penalty to Man Utd. Tuchel played an extremely cautious game against us and never went for it hence why they only created like 1 decent chance all game and there expected goals per shot was like 0.05.

Hafi the stat man loves to divert when stats thrown at him don’t fit his narrative
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Hafi means well (or wum) but he hasnt grasped that in reality expected goals mean as much as expected seagulls flying over the stadium in the 57th minute.

Wolves expected goals was 1.56 and Arsenal was 0.72.
Arsenal expected goals was 0.75 vs Man Utd 1.51 at the Emirates.

Just checked Arsenal had higher expected goals than the opposition in only 7 home league games and most of them were by a small 0. Something.

Anybody that watches Wolves and expects them to score 1.56 goals in a match doesn’t understand what they are watching.

Auba isn’t the problem. Arteta tactics are extremely negative. I am surprised Auba has managed to do as well as he has done under Arteta. People don’t realise how crazy Arsenal winning the Fa Cup was last season. I think Arsenal were the first side to win the Fa Cup with so few shots. Nearly every shot on target Arsenal had went in that season.

You really struggle to see the basics man.

You can't analyse a game properly. So shut up.

Martinelli is definitely banging Arteta’s wife. 😎

You could be onto something there, come to think of it maybe she has an naughty appetite for the team youngsters in general. Paid a little bit too much attention to Guen and Ains so they had to go. She can't get near ESR because he's always with the physio or practicing tekkers, Saka is a really good boy and Arteta trusts him to behave, Pepe's happy with his new baby and Mrs Arteta can't understand a feckin word Tierney says, so won't go there anyway. So they get to play. Poor Gabi has to stay in the dugout and keep his track suit on, no showing Mrs A a bit o' leg

I only just learned that we even had a game tonight.

Count yaself lucky

Interestingly Auba had the 2nd best conversion rate in the league last season and Lacazette has by far the best this season so Arteta has had near like the most in-form strikers in the league for 2 seasons running.

Arsenal have a lot of good players at the club it seems but have an extremely weak midfield and defense. I think as the defence is weak Arteta has to play a bery defensively minded game to protect them.

Its funny Arsenal fans want players like Leno and Lacazette gone when they would be an upgrade for most teams fighting to win league titles and champions leagues.

They can't see it Posh. Can't fathom the equation that is...

"Manager's Sh !t Tactics + Manager's Disgusting to Extremely Sh !tty Attitude/Manner toward players = Lost Dressing Room & Team that won't play well,"

They're the fans responsible for Arteta not being sacked. ke's "read the room" and seen he can get away with releasing a hollow promise presser and leaving Arteta to mouth off in the press, reinforcing the deluded view many gooners seem to hold that Arteta would have done better if...

"he'd just had better players." and since "we're really gonna buy some this time cos ke's under pressure, then it's ok if we don't sack him yet really."

The fact that's a buncha crap because the sh !t tactics would have failed with any level of player and pressure or not, Arteta ain't really gonna get sh !t worth having off the transfer market either...irrelevant for now. All that matters to the owner is it saves him the cost of paying off Arteta and coughing for the manager good/experienced enough to get us out of this mess any time soon. The man must be a true legend in top flight ownership circles by now. Poised to publish a paper for next generation of owner...

Just look at that yankee boy go playin' that cheap fiddle once again.
