Arsenal fan in the Great White North

[Canadian Gøøner @CanGooner]

I don’t spend a lot of time on this app anymore, and today’s a great example of why. Some “fans” on here are posting as if we’d lost. If you can’t enjoy beating Chelsea, why do you even bother?

[Canadian Gøøner @CanGooner]

Chelsea haven’t beaten Arsenal since Tuchel was their manager? That’s hilarious.

[Canadian Gøøner @CanGooner]

This Liverpool side are going to be the worst team to with the Premier League in quite some time. Incredible what a few key injuries and awful red card decisions did to our title challenge.

[Canadian Gøøner @CanGooner]

Kieran Tierney starts!

[Canadian Gøøner @CanGooner]

Honestly, I don’t understand how people can blame anything other than the injuries. Name me a single squad in the world that wouldn’t struggle with 4/6 of their best attackers out?

[Canadian Gøøner @CanGooner]

Missed that the first leg of CL is March 4. So likely out for that as well.

[Canadian Gøøner @CanGooner]

So it’s possible that Martinelli only misses three games: Leicester (A), West Ham (H), Forest (A). Possible return date of March 9 v. United, a day some have pencilled in as a potential Saka return as well.

[Canadian Gøøner @CanGooner]

I guess this is an interesting hypothetical: are Arsenal right not to (over)spend this January if it means we bring in a trio of Isak, Zubimendi, and Williams in the summer? Mokbel’s article suggests that’s what’s at stake here.

@Rory_Talks_Ball I love that man.

[Canadian Gøøner @CanGooner]

I don’t know anything about Mathys Tel, but he has the chance to do the funniest thing before the end of the window 🔴

[Canadian Gøøner @CanGooner]

@cagiago_ Would work for Harry Kane tbf

[Canadian Gøøner @CanGooner]

@georgez22161737 Yup.

[Canadian Gøøner @CanGooner]

They waited until the red card was overturned before issuing this.

Regulation and Discipline update on @Arsenal:

[Canadian Gøøner @CanGooner]

I think I’ve said this before, but the problem with VAR is that they’re getting a second opinion on a judgment call rather than letting the on-field official see the call himself. Semi-automatic offsides and challenge system fixes most of the issues, I think.

[Canadian Gøøner @CanGooner]

Leicester v Spurs, big game in the relegation battle.

[Canadian Gøøner @CanGooner]

It’s always him.

[Canadian Gøøner @CanGooner]

Never in my life.

[Canadian Gøøner @CanGooner]

@Rory_Talks_Ball We signing the whole Norwegian national team then?

[Canadian Gøøner @CanGooner]

I don’t want to understate how big it is having Nwaneri return to the lineup. As long as he didn’t have any flare-ups as a result of his minutes yesterday, he starts on the weekend (probably playing ~60 mins.).

[Canadian Gøøner @CanGooner]

@fkhanage @AMonFootball I thought that would be the option we would go with too, but the disruption is not minimal. You move Gabriel to the right, now he has a new side, new partnerships on both sides, and MLS is playing beside our weakest CB option. Kiwior has not played much at CB since joining us.
