Monreal !

Monreal got free from a corner, easy header from 6 yards.

1-9 to the arsenal. Really want a Lacazette goal today, he needs one

Monreal !!!!!!!!

Will typing the letters ' r u t ' get you : Rubbish team (as in stuck in a rut)

Iwobiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii

2-0 iwobi

It had been coming

Iwobi !!!!!!!!

Iwobi!! 2 - 0

What a difference Monreal makes...................

2 nil within 9 minutes.

Seems Theo and Sanchez were holding us back !

Kos !!!!!!!!

Wow - Who is that team in red ?

Kos 3-0!

Monreal with a goal and 2 assists!

Alexi who............

Kos !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Kos!!!! 3 - 0

AW will get you that.

I see that Walcott's new team are doing well.

Lacazette !!

Wow - Amazing ...

Lacazette deadly finish. You wouldn’t have thought he was down on his confidence.

Brilliant move with Wilshere and a back flick from Özil to find Lacazette

Lacazette !!!!!!!

Fantastic play!!!!

Ffs what a rubbish team.Get rid of all of them. What will we do without Alexi, we're doomed make 6th let alone a Europa final................

Palace are stunned. So nice to see some much more direct play. Wilshere drives things forward but now has Özil to bounce things off on his wave length.

This has been perfect from arsenal so far

Bugga I gotta go................

Say a prayer for the gunners...........

This has to be the death of the 5 at the back formation. Team just more confident in what they are doing

Reminds me of the time that we roared into a 4-0 lead against Newcastle

You shut your mouth!

Monreal coming off - finally.

Useless git.

Nacho Monreal has been added to the Injury Room.

He has suffered a ankle (non-specified) injury and so far there is no information on how long he will spend on the sidelines.
The average time lost for this particular injury is 21 days, based on a sample size of 52 injuries of the same type.

Well done the lads - that was a joy to watch.

What a load of old *%^@, all that possession and nothing to show for............oh, hold on.

Alexis is off, Özil stays. Looks like it then

Would be nice to get Aubameyang as well to round off the team but who lose their places?

See Leon Bailey scored another top goal for Leverkusen this weekend. He looks like he might tick a few boxes.

Just saw that Bayern have quietly, to me anyway, signed Goretzka to be completed in the summer. Don’t know if people had twigged that. They really are Man Utd circa 1990-96 aren’t they. A giant Barvarian Hoover roaming Germany talent sucking everyone else dry.

Well that was enjoyable. We made Crystal Palace look like a complete mess, and they're not in bad form - I think we're the only team to have beaten them in their last 12 league games, and that includes a near-win against City.

We should definitely continue with this formation for the forseeable future, and that includes playing Elneny (since we don't seem to be looking for reinforcement in central midfield). Xhaka and Wilshere looked liberated out there.

Too true Bernard ... I can never understand how someone can convert a beautiful living animal into a stuffed wall trophy .

Only seen the highlights but some suggesting this new freedom of play is down to Sanchez moving on ....?

I'd think it was maybe a bounce back from the Bournemouth defeat ...we scored the 4 goals in 22 minutes ... what did we do for the other 68 ...useless **%^*&

Palace did look wide open , did someone say they had their whole first choice back four missing.
