    The Haaland perma-cappers have got lucky!

    Ollie Watkins is laughing at me from the forward line, too!

    I'm mostly annoyed that Trippier doesn't get clean sheet points and thus I've got a 6 point defender on my bench for his 1 point.

    Are this Sheff Utd team worse than the 11 point Derby side?

    My sister, an Arsenal fan, is on the couch seething for this reason.

    It's all hell.

    This is a bit like on fm when you blow a team away in the first half and get one highlight in the second.

    It's all hell.

    This is a bit weird considering we've beaten Liverpool, West Ham and Newcastle in the last five games with three or more goals?

    Sheffield United are probably the worst pl team since that awful Derby team, but we are killing it.

    No doubt, great run of form since Dubai. But I am not sure thrashing Sheffield United proves anything. Be interesting to see if y'all can do it against Porto.

    Still think y'all need a striker that can actually score consistently to win a league.

    Arsenal have scored more than anyone else this season...

    Who tf leaves after 15 minutes? Like seriously, whats the point? I generally despise everyone that doesn't stay until the final whistle, unless they have a really good reason for leaving early (and being home 30 minutes earlier is not a good reason).

    Why are you kicking cats??? No, but seriously, I never heard that saying (I hope it's just a saying)?

    nah. more goals scored with 11 to go in a far better league and more attacking league (above the drop zone) than derby was in. this is more second season Huddersfield with a worse defence than Derby.

    Depends. Leaving most stadiums in London, but particularly The Emirates or Stamford Bridge, at 89 minutes with the game safe can genuinely save you an hour or more. For European games, I’ve left the stadium at 9:50 and got home at 2am before because of tube closures and the queues. I still don’t leave early, but I get it. I do find it weird to leave a game 15 minutes in though.

    That said, it’s very easy for us, an Arsenal fan and a Bayern Munich fan, to talk badly about these fans, but we’ve never had to put up with our team getting absolutely hammered every week with no hope or respite until relegation. Even at our worst, we were an upper midtable side, and that was depressing as hell lol.

    @orangehorizon

    Is min-Jae unfit or something? Surely his form hasn't fallen off the cliff enough to be displaced by Dier?

    Muller stealing a great goal away from De Ligt, there.

    Kim is fit as far as I know. But Dier has been surprisingly good so far since his transfer.

    Dier wasn’t supposed to be good enough to unseat de ligt either but this is tuchelball baby!

    and yes, he’s impressed more than expected which has been pleasant

    Ipswich winning again after going behind, not sure my heart can cope with this.
