Wouldn’t we all. He is a threat and a pest. Stops the opposition relaxing.

Hadn't realised the game had started. I'm an hour out.
Then, judging from the comments, would never have guessed we are actually winning.

Zoolander has been good today and should start midweek despite obviously moving on

And after Martinelli gets his goal, can we allow Ceballos to get one?

Oh go on then. If you insist.

Many thanks

He's doing better than me. I was still browsing the back cover.

Btw Aubameyang has had some very good touches in this half not just the goal.

Pass on the run with his instep.

Old Trafford cleared out now.

What? They’ve sold all of their players?

Delayed kick off time for the United game.

Even if they did, none of the good ones would be coming our way.

It's Partey time !

Smart of Xhaka to pull out of that challenge. Any slight touch and that Newcastle player will be screaming and rolling on the ground.

Arteta instructed him to shoot for goal. Shooting practice that he needs.

I have to say that Matt Ryan has looked rock solid and been inspiring confidence in those around him.

Matt Ryan looks solid as for a 2nd keeper. No Rhys wilmot

That’s plain weird

Ryan is a very confident gk

How’s his playing out from the back been?

That’s appalling. *%^@ off animal.

I was just thinking the same. He's been very good although he's been in pipe and slippers mode for long periods.

Unexciting and well controlled.

Well deserved red.

If he’s injured Martinelli honestly *%^@ that guy. What a prick

That red was harsh.

Hope not serious injury to Martinelli

I’m not sure that’s allowed. Could you get him to ramp up the jeopardy please? Thank you.

Not harsh at all. Borderline at best. Reckless at worst.

Not often a ref has the bottle to properly punish a really awful tackle

Every time we win a penalty or an opposing player gets a red you say it wasn’t

It reminded me of the foul on Diaby by that Sunderland triallist. Equally grim and unnecessary.

I think he was simply too eager there. No malice intended.

Haha

When you know you can’t get the ball, I.e. when you have to go through the back of them, there has to be a little bit of malice involved.

We are top half of the league say we are top half of the league

Hope it will be this easy on Thursday and with the same scoreline.

Just like winning a trophy
