Love seeing Declan and Tomi shouting instructions on the pitch...
And there goes the Saliba chant

Rice lose a contact lense? I never consider footballers have them.
I wonder whether we'll ever see footballers get Lasik or similar subsidized by the clubs.
Glad he found it. He'd have to awkwardly run to the locker room for a new one. Lol
That raises a good point - I wonder if the medical team have spares for players that wear them?
Absolutely surprised he wears them
Oh is that what it was, thought he had something in his eye 😂
All 11 of our players in defense.
Damn it Eddie look up for a change
Really prefer White in that RB position. Hope Gabi gets back into the team soon.
Bloody Christ Eddie......
Odegaard with our first shot on target. Our captain doing it himself if he has too
What a shot that was too
We're going to pass them to death. Lol
Just tiring them out...
Eddie took on 2 defenders well. Did it all right except the finish.
I'm glad to see this cynicism with fast starts from free kicks, but... perhaps.... maybe.... we could do something with it?

Saka is so good.
EYO
Lol really? Is that how they're going to play it?
At least we're getting that call for us. Eze with we great skills.
If an opposing player held back a counter attack like that, we'd be demanding a yellow card. It's unfortunate, but he was in trouble when he got the first card for time wasting, he couldn't take that chance.
I wonder if this means that Gabriel will actually start the next match. I haven't been happy with this weird makeshift back 4 anyhow.
Holding the ball for 8 seconds, not fouling a guy, red card.
Cumulative time wasting, Havertz held it for 15 seconds and Tomi for 8 seconds afterwards. The player who has the ball gets carded.

Exactly, it was a counter and he was baited by the turn. It isn't enough for a yellow imo but it is still a foul. Whether or not it is a yellow is up to the refs discretion. Still you shouldn't be baited with a swivel like that at this level.
You have to be aware you're on a yellow card too. Even if you get baited, you have to rely on your other defenders. He was in Palace's half at the time, so there was time to get back.
Correct, he didn't have any situational awareness and Ayew took the contact and made it appear worse than it is
I was always surprised that Wenger never seemed to try to bring in one of the Ayew brothers. They seem very much like Wenger players. Smart and technical while not the traditional blueprint of a striker / winger.
Jorgi coming on...
Pretty sure all of Palace's in-box touches came from Eze dancing around Rice
HOLD THE BALL
Partey hit the goddamn ISS with that clearance
Saka doing just enough to keep him off balance but not fouling.
I absolutely hope that NBC does not put Andros Townsend on more of the games, irritating af

My twerk kings coming on
3 points won but we need to return to a back four with Zinchenko, Gabriel, Saliba and White.
