Arsenal look like a top 4 candidate
Premier League Gameweek 3
- Thread starter drab.
- Start date
Saliba has been top draw tbf.
Still questions about that midfield though and if Partey gets injured. Don't think Xhaka can be trusted holding that midfield together.

Saliba has started this season very strongly.
Woof Saliba
Cracking goal that
You could bin them off or you could hand them contract extensions and have them sit in the reserves because they become unsellable... This is the United way.
They show that recruitment doesn't have to be rocket science.
Don't go chasing WC players like FdJ, don't overpay for guys like Martinez, have a vision for the club and execute it with data.
But still far better than De Gea.Ramsdale is a pretty shit keeper
Because of course, Arsenal haven't paid £50m for any 24 year old centre backs lately.
Exactly, but somehow our lot manage to make it look like the hardest thing in the world. Couldnt get it more wrong if we tried.
Ramsdale plays like he has a no clean sheet bet on.
Missed 3rd goal as thundery rain here and Sky went off, as it is just about to again.
He's about 24 inches taller though tbf, that's the tall Englishman tax.
Does Sky still do that due to weather? I remember it doing that mid 2000’s when I lived in the UK but thought they would’ve resolved that by now.
Everyone repeated this shite near the end of last season and Arsenal still didn’t get top 4.
Arsenal fans singing "your going down with United"
Not usually, but I don't know if there is thunder in the area, so that could be causing the problem more than the rain.
They might finish 5th because Spurs and Chelsea are really good as well but it's a significant improvement from where they were a few seasons ago.
I was fully expecting them to become mid table fodder.
Loving Arsenals future. It’s taken some time but they are on the way up once more.
Are they singing about us now
Have to give credit to them, that Saliba chant is great.
They've spent huge money (more than anybody in Europe last summer) and have changed damn near the whole squad for a manager who's already had years in charge. The most remarkable thing would be them spinning 5th as a success story under those circumstances (if they even manage that again).
It's fecking toiletHave to give credit to them, that Saliba chant is great.
Are all the microphones near the Arsenal fans or have the Bournemouth fans just decided not to sing today
Well I'd rather have a toilet than not have one.
Jesus walking on water.
Yeah agreed.
The biggest reason behind their collapse (imo) was their lack of squad depth in the midfield/ fullback areas and they seem to have addressed that (along with a massive upgrade at CF) and have avoided a poor start to the season (They lost their first 3 games of last season).
If we don't win on Monday we will be 8 or 9 behind Arsenal already. That is truly an embarrassment.
Sunk.
Looks off
If Liverpool don't win on Monday they'll be 7 behind them
English, called up to the NT, young etc.
I don't think they've spent ridiculous amounts. They spent like 280M over three years since Arteta joined. Considering where they were when he joined, I think it's an achievement to be pushing for top four.
Chelsea are hitting close to 200M just this year and we're going to hit 150M+ (likely) just this summer. Over 3 years we've spent ~318M and aren't really close to them right now.
90-100M / yr is acceptable in terms of fees.
No, he is not.
Of course, we cant be not having all the shittest players.
Bournemouth down 0-3 but are still trying and pushing to get a goal at least, unlike another certain team.
Is it a coincidence that two of the most impressive managers this and last season have come from City? - Arteta and Vieira
If we lose on Monday we'll be the only team with zero points in 3 games.
let’s not get ahead of ourselves… Arteta? This always happens with Arsenal… he was getting the plaudits last season and then they went on to throw their CL place away. They’ll do the same this season.
