Being said we are trying to sign a keeper from the MLS as Leno is going to be sold too Newcastle on a loan with obligation |

Ask them for £30m. I cant imagine Leno wants to go there though |

Varane, Fernandes, Ronaldo (or Rashford). McTominay over Xhaka for me. Shaw v Tierney is close. Tierney is more consistent but Shaw is more talented. They finished 2nd in the league last season with Solskjaer as manager. |

Back to a full strength 11 tonight minus Xhaka and Partey but Partey makes the bench! Looks like Ødegaard alongside Lokonga in midfield. Plenty of youngsters on the bench Looking forward to it. |

No Leno on the bench - could be something in the gk rumours |

Signing Leno would be a very smart piece of business by Newcastle. He's not at the level of some of the elite keepers like Allison and Ederson but he's in the pack just below. His razor sharp reactions and stunning reflexes could be the difference maker in a relegation dogfight and if they stay up would be one of the important building blocks in developing a team to start competing at the top end of the table. |

Lokonga on his own in midfield, don’t like the look of that but there’s a decent amount of strength in that side If partey comes off the bench that’s pretty mental. |

Kieran Tierney being interviewed on sky. There’s your captain Smart, considered and intelligent. Hopefully they do the right thing in the summer |

With the injuries we have, I like the look of that team. This will not be easy, but let's give it a real go. |

Tomiyasu doesn’t cover himself in glory but that was the very definition of a scruffy goal. |

Just like that against the run of play. No one should ever say we are lucky. |

Long way to go Arsenal- no need to panic just keep trying to get forward. |

Poor defending but also a bit of luck about the goal. Tomiyasu slips as he tries to recover then the shot is scuffed and trickles in the only place it could and not where Jota meant to put it |

Jota is the epitome of a player who makes his own luck. Just a nuisance. Wish we had a goal threat like that |

No injuries and no Covid. |

See Lacazette miles behind the play doing the false 9 stuff on the halfway line. Just desperate for a new striker |

Feel like loads of players get away without that being a yellow. Did feel like the ref couldn’t wait to get his card out there |

Don’t think mf is working. Structure looks wrong. Emile Smith Rowe seems peripheral and I think he’s better than that. |

Highlights for me this half have been Martinelli and Ødegaard. Top,quality. |

Normally it’s partey on his own. Only problem is how mad are you going to be to bring on partey and when do you change it |
