Any Totts fans living near you?

The conspiracy just goes & grows. You don’t think Prince Andrew might have got wind of his name being mentioned on this site. Bloody Royals - nothing can stop them.

Not sure who listens to the Arseblog podcasts but the discussion on the latest podcast about how Brexit will restrict young foreigners coming to EPL clubs. Martenelli may be the last of that class we may see.

The bottom line is we probably could not sign a Fabergas or Bellerin after the exit.

As it would presumably affect every big club in exactly the same way, I imagine some sort of rule will be brought in or loophole used to enable it to continue.

Additionally Martinelli is Brazilian. Brazil were obviously never in the EU and he was signed anyway. So why will membership (or not) of the EU make any difference?

Let me clarify I’m not stating any support or opposition to Brexit with this post. I’m just mentioning why I’m as yet uncertain how valid the points you raise from the Arseblog podcast (which I’ve never listened to) are. Perhaps I’m mistaken.

Logie - a former bricklayer - one of the greats. Thanks for the photo.

Yeah that's a fair cop.

My missus also accuses me of being too condescending.

*That means I talk down to people.

I'll be the biggest sperz fan today.

3 big ifs, but if we can get the Barca and Juve defenders, or either along with Saliba and with Bellerin and Teirney, the back line will look pretty darn decent. I'm as excited about our link to that center mid as well. We are pretty good going forward.

The defense was expected to be an issue and it came to fruition. We need to start rebuilding from the back.

This is three things!

These 'are' three things.

Math (we don't add the 's' here) has never been my strength.

Did anyone else have that game Striker as a kid. The one where you pushed down their heads to kick the ball? In totally unrelated news we signed Brian Talbot today in 1979.

Tried to reply to Bernard but got an SQL error.

Bernard , Martenelli has an Italian parent so he came thru the EU. Otherwise back to the old days of proving how big a talent is you want to sign. Number of caps and depends on the country as well. Remember Joel Campbell could never really get accepted.

Line up unchanged from the Man U game

Nope. Subbuteo was the one for me. The older version with flat players - card or the dearer celluloid.

Nice one Aubameyang. Great start to the game.

Dominant start capped off with a goal

The team is playing with a wonderful cohesiveness and a strong belief. Arteta has done wonders with the players.

A wonderful goal, well done Aubameyang!

Great pass Luiz, nice touch Özil, great assist Lacazette.

Ayew's 5 th foul. Still no booking.......

Torreira gets fouled a heck of a lot.

By our own players too........

This is the most lenient referee in the league

I am using Steve original Shockwave Flash "Arsenal Now Playing" animation at the top of the forum.

I gather most people are now being asked by their web browser to Activate the Flash Plug In or simply see a grey box of some sort, yes ?

I like Özil's energy nowadays. He is first to some second balls too. Something he didn't care to do previously.

Neither on Safari (and no animation)

Flash player blocked on chrome ..........

AMN is playing a very composed game. He is keeping Zaha at bay

A shout out to Xhaka too. Doing well.

Don't worry - I'm sure Xhaka will be first on the books.

Pépé steps up for our second goal?

Is the team conserving their energy?

Turns out that it’s the rank outsider Pépé

Ridiculous booking

Quite bizarre

It’s no wonder we get a yellow every 3-4 fouls and team like Leicester get one every 9-10 fouls.

Guendouzi on for Torreira - let's hope the Uruguayan isn't out for long, he's been excellent since Arteta started playing him in his best position.

Lost count now.............

Ayew/Ref a joke

Maitland-Niles doing a very good job on Zaha so far - touch wood.

Edit: and that was a harsh yellow card.

Good God..............

Jammy buggers - and no VAR get out of jail free card for us
