Again, I don’t know what a foul is at a corner anymore!

Leap on the shoulders…fine

Wrap your arms around an attacker…fine

Flick your elbow up and top edge the ball… fine

Punch the attacker in the head and miss the ball… fine

🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️

Some proper mental gymnastics going on trying to excuse that Rice handball… “he’s involved in physical contact”

Well when he’s the physical contact, yeah!!

The Brits were really bad. Music is in a bad place. Over sanitised, over produced, full of posh kids being lauded by posh adults. The edgiest part of the whole night was s nearly sixty year old man saying "up the fucking blues".

In order to understand UK politics in 2026 you must realise that a plumber & plasterer doesn't represent the interests of the working class because she is left-wing but a wealthy broadcaster & former academic does represent the interests of the working class because he is right-wing. Hope this helps

Extraordinary that in these fractious & divided times, so many of us can unite around the single, simple fact that Matthew Goodwin is an irredeemable twat.

Absolutely nothing wrong with that. Needed for the new guys to understand that it takes games like this to win titles.

I had a bloke behind me constantly moaning about not going to get the 3rd from 75 mins on… I think he got sick of me shouting “EASY PASS” and “KEEP THE FUCKING BALL”🤣🤣

It’s like the chicken and the egg with this lot. Do the fans react the way they do because of the players or do the players react this way because of the fans. Fan channel club.

It must be utterly draining being Arsenal.

They don’t have rollercoaster seasons or games or spells in games… every attack is life or death!

Anyway, squeaky bum time seems to have hit them already😁😁😁

Ludicrous end to the game. Not often I agree with Neville, but they’re sucking the joy out of the game.

Anyway, bollocks to it, great win.

Guehi is a colossus of a defender.

The scousers are there for the taking. No final ball which isn’t a surprise looking the 11.

Not paying badly, but Cherki can win this on his own

I would go further… he’s a poor man’s Mangala

So you can have half of your defence dragging a striker to the ground at a corner… just make sure you start it before the corner is taken.

Utter bollocks

Plus they’ve played two teams who they can press, soak up pressure and hit on the break. We’ll see how they go when they’ve got to make the running

And we were 1 up in two of them!! Anyway, still in striking distance when Arsenal should be over the horizon

4 points. Keep the pressure on these gimps and their arse drop out of sight

He claims he has at York away and Huddersfield 10-1 from what I’ve heard

We and probably most of the league know by now the way Utd played is our Kryptonite and has been throughout Pep’s time.

The defence was unrecognisable yesterday and understandably rattled with their lack of experience especially in that environment.

Shit happens. Next game please 🤣

Completely. Easy to forget that these players have put in some pretty big performances so far this season. Let them freshen their legs up and they will again.

Maybe a realisation too that a small squad can’t cope with the physical demands of competing at the top of the league in 2026.

Nice to see Big Wazza donning his lab coat, getting the centrifuge out and running a few electrophoresis gels in his post match analysis yesterday.

Genetics was never my strong point in my biology degree, so I’ll bow down to the big man’s expertise 🙌 #DNA #analysis

Shite day at the office, Emm. They played on our weaknesses, we couldn’t cope with their intensity and we paid the price.

People seem to forget this is nothing new. Klopp’s teams did this to use every visit to Anfield… even Solskjaer’s Utd teams did this to us… SOLSKJAER’S UTD!!!!!!!

I’ve woke up this morning with the feeling of “take it, move on”.

Shite day at the office, more of an anomaly than the norm this season. Arsenal didn’t capitalise, 7 points… move on.

AFCON players back, Guehi coming in, Nico G not too far away… get some rest for players on empty. Don’t panic 😁🤣
