Soccer (Closing)

Maddison is a 1000 times more impactful and creative than odegaard do not understand how people call odegaard better

Holy shit that half flew by

Can’t believe it’s already 4:20AM LMAO

Idk what kinda fuckery Baldy drilled into Palmer, but he's probably one of our best players right now

Arteta should just return to last years tactic instead of this Pep slow build up style.

Arsenal deserve this result because of white his haircut, wtf is that monstrosity

Ben White what the fuck holy shit I've only just seen him jesus fucking christ what is that

Jackson fucken hell

Rain has been an important factor so far, affecting passes accuracy (especially for a team who's trailing the score and trying to move the ball in crowded areas) and players' vision.

Lads I can’t take another natural hand position debate

I'm streaming from Canada so idk these people, who's the guy on SkySports saying it wasn't a penalty?

Who's betting on the 5th red card of the day?

• Rain is slowing down's Arsenal's style and hardly affecting Chelsea's.
• Lot of fouls by both sides, some unpunished. Penalty was a bit harsh, but understandable.
• Martinelli needs to run at the defenders and put them in trouble.
• Sterling causing trouble out wide, but Chelsea has a gaping hole up front.

I’m hesitantly optimistic. We’ve played well but surely Arsenal improves in the 2nd half

We have been well overdue a bit of good fortune.

Arsenal have been squeezing out lucky wins all season, run dry and this is the result

Don’t know why but this Arsenal gives me the biggest “it’s Tottenham lads “

They have a lot of bark but feels like when they are taken seriously there just not enough bite

Arteta simply doesn't have it, I'm afraid.

I remember reading something somewhere on reddit about how when footballers come back from holiday / international breaks with blonde hair is because it strips substances from hair to conceal the fact they've been doing coke on holiday etc. Ben "Snow" White's been busy!

impressive for chelsea to be going toe to toe with the greatest arsenal team of all time

Dropping your established keeper for a keeper who looks nervous as fuck is a proper headache

Oh na na oh na na

Aaron Shamsdale remontada

How is he allowed to hip check Jesus in the head????? If anybody but the keeper does that its a pen

Robert Sanchez wants to be the backup for Volk/Islam.

Sanchez nearly as reckless as Prickford.

Someone please explain why that isn’t a foul and penalty!?

Any other player, that's a foul.

This is a flapping keeper clinic so far.

Feels like Jamie Redknapp's cosplaying when he has these strong opinions, doesn't even seem genuine

Zinchenko off….is there a bigger bottler when there’s a bit of pressure on?

Well at least Arteta made an obvious sub we needed, he's definitely made better decisions this year with subs

Mudryk being mudryk actually worked

Ben White is looking like Joffrey from GOT lolllll

Sky making a meal out of all that CoNtRoVeRsY over the hand ball is definitely something

This goalkeeping situation is becoming farcical, and it is entirely self-created by Arsenal.

I don't get it. Have never gotten it. Even when their fans (who know a lot more than I do) explain it, or Arteta talks Raya up, I don't get it.

Two players for each position I get. Two starting goalkeepers for one starting place I don't.

Arteta really went and started and Easteanders drama series because he wanted to bench Ramsdale for a guy with the reaction timing of a washing machine

Shambles

Arteta has to big brain this and sub Raya for Ramsdale because if Ramsdale then concedes it will be hilarious.

Would be cool if they lifted the ban on us making a substitution. Allowing 1 at half time was nice but we could use some more.

Ball was gone before Sanchez cleared them out.

How is that not a fucking pen ,unbeilveable

Hilarious ever since they brought in Raya to cover for Ramsdales mistakes, Raya has made 10x as many mistakes with his feet. Thats the kind of signing that irks me and must not go down well with the dressing room.

Chelsea gives me hope that we can magically turn it around and go for the title

I am bored of these daft pundits constantly talking about how refs get a hard time, then they debate every fucking decision the refs make for weeks on end.

We're sticking with the same midfield. Hmmmm

What was Raya doing hahahahahahaha

Classic Arsenal, where every rebound goes to the other team, every mishit cross turns into a goal.

Raya going full Seaman there, Arsenal heritage

I'm curious what happens to Arteta's hair in weather like this... does all the product like run into his eyes or is it essentially waterproof? Like he's got a couple of coats of epoxy on there or something?
