Apparently only Man City have allowed fewer shots on target than Arsenal this season. That’s a huge change from that awful 2-2 draw away to Watford where we seemed utterly powerless to stop the number of chances and shots they had in the second half

Indeed. It looks like a strong team, although Cédric on the left is a slight concern. Pépé really needs to deliver.

If we win today (touch wood), we scythe our way up to a stellar eighth, only a few point below spurs and only four below 'pool. West Ham are a credible fourth .. hilarious season.

Duh. Should be 1-0.

That's a bad miss. Just lift it over the keeper.

Lacazette should've buried that

Oh bloody hell here we go.

Bollox. One down instead of one up. Sigh.

Just what we need - *%^@*** miracle goal

Pépé caught sleeping there, but that's a pretty good goal to be honest

Wasn’t even paying attention

It was ludicrous

Lacazette needed to bury that.

Woohoo Pépé

Yay. Super goal! Pépé.

Super pass by Xhaka.

That's more like it!

Great ball Xhaka

Xhaka again

Holy *%^@ a Granit Xhaka assist !!!

Well done son

Two excellent through balls from Xhaka in the space of eight minutes

Front foot. We're up for this.

Pépé!!!!!!

Good assist Xhaka!

Well it’s certainly not boring.

Hilarious.

But I'm sure you don't mind Pépé and Xhaka making a fool out of you tonight.

Ooooh. Nice effort by Cédric.

Enjoying this.

Anyone else noticed that Arteta's stubble never seems to get either longer or shorter.

Oooh Cédric.. good effort

Good effort from Cédric

That graph is going to look rather interesting if he carries on like this.

Hey I’ve never had a problem with Pépé.

That’s Xhakas good work done for another 6 games

Pépé looks electric.

Never thought I’d say that.

That's the Theo we are all familiar with. Scuffed wide.

Bellerin doing a Xhaka there. Yellow.

Harsh

Edit - plenty of cover behind Bellerin and he didn’t actually touch him - impeded only.

Diving in two footed and nowhere near the ball. I wasn’t surprised when the yellow came out.

Wasn’t two-footed. Watch it again.

It’s great to see us looking continually threatening. Real energy and penetration.

Thank you Leno. Once again.

Worrying, all their crosses have found a Southampton player.

I will do. At half time.

At first viewing it looked like he was miles late and just brought the player down to stop him getting away. Was it not like that?

Not entirely convinced by Saka’s decisions to cross to the far post. We ain’t stacked with venom in the heading department.

Our opponents looking threatening too.

Let's hope you are wrong again
