Great win last night on to the next game.

21 Oct 2026 22:27:51
9 times out of 10 this team finds a way to get a good result. People can and do knock them, and pick faults with and within them but the players and manager just keep going forward together despite the noise people make about them.

Another fantastic result tonight away from home against of Europe's very top teams 👏👏👏👏.

21 Oct 2026 23:07:04
Hope you n the fam are well 62.
I thought we played brilliantly tonight, like you said against one of your dominant fives in Europe in there own back yard pretty sure I heard they hadn't been beaten there since 2019 so coming away with not losing.

I'll take that. We could have won also it' was end to end. Great game to watch.
Let's keep pushing!
Champions champions champions ❤️🤍.

Super result away from home against a weakened Bayern - thought it was a tough penalty. Good around performance - may be a little more from Kai, Noni & Bruno would have been good. Nice goal from Captain Rice and lay off from Vik. Bruno needs to get up to speed quick. Well done Eze.

Hi Jeg mate, all good my end thanks mate and hope its the same with you and yours 👍

It was a cracking game between two of Europe's best teams and the players and manager once again got the job done. There were as there will always be imperfections from both teams but once again this Arsenal came away with a very good result 👍.

Up The Arsenal 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏.

Agree with most of above! Musiala Olise and Kimmich out but we had Saliba Tszolis and Saka for most of the game. Bayern weakened but arguably so were we. Hardly Bayern's second string! Almost as if if we won the excuse was there! BBC and TNT worst for this COYG.

22 Oct 2026 12:16:17
Hi Cheshire, because of our incredible squad strength we were able to cope really without 3 important players and achieve a result in Munich that Bayern were simply unable to achieve at the Emirates 12 months

Its been a very long time since we've had it this good, and the actual facts rather than opinions seem to support this claim.

20 Oct 2026 20:45:22
It still hurts losing the CL final on penalties but watching PSG play, I think they have been worthy winners over the last two years!
Hopefully we can achieve something similar in the next few years.

20 Oct 2026 22:25:48
Hopefully this season Highbury mate.

I genuinely believe our team/squad/manager are far better than they are given credit for, they must be or they simply wouldn't be Premier League champions and Champions league runners up.

20 Oct 2026 22:43:56
Let's hope so G62, we are the champions and in the best position we have been for years, we aren't far off so, fingers crossed!

21 Oct 2026 12:14:10
I wish our PL teams were able to reschedule their domestic games to give teams in the CL a bit more rest, as apparently they do in the French league. that must be an advantage surely? Unless I was told a porky lol.

21 Oct 2026 14:31:57
I hear you Sally, but it is beyond that with the PSG team, their work rate in tracking back and winning the ball back, their one touch swift movements, everybody knows exactly where others are and flowing transitions are a joy to watch. We had a glimpse of all this few seasons a go but then we regressed back.

20 Oct 2026 06:05:44
I want to ask a genuine question to all, why can people say players aren't playing well and everyone agrees but when it comes to Saka it's a big no what the difference, Gyok gets a lot of stick he was out top scorer Kia gets stick as well Noni, martinill, Trossard, Jesus the list goes on, but heaven forbid you have a go a super Saka, so come on people now is your time to answer the question, I don't want any silly quotes or riddles or sarcastic posts because that will just show you can't answer it,

20 Oct 2026 09:31:43
Hi Dublin, fair question and yes, I am of the opinion that he isn't playing well and is being treated differently to others.
He is certainly not fulfilling the potential and expectations that we thought he could achieve. There will be arguments that he is being doubled up on and fouled but great players find a way around it.

The soft corner we have for him is because he has risen through the academy and has been one of our best players. However, if the numbers doesn't improve we have to ask serious questions about his place in the team.

20 Oct 2026 10:12:16
Most people would agree that Saka isn't playing well! And if that continues then the noise will increase! Once Tzolis is back Noni if it's seen as the right thing to do will replace Saka. MA is quite ruthless but I prefer to accept his decision to play Saka or not rather than yours DG! No one is saying Saka is playing well as far as I can see and wouldn't be shocked to see him dropped! No one is saying he is undroppable! Yet you think some are blindly saying play him even if he's playing badly- not true in my case and the impression I get from here! What is fecking ridiculous is your call to sell him, he's crap blah blah! He's crap he's playing brilliantly neither are true! I suspect though as I don't agree with your confirmation bias you will assume I haven't answered the question.

At least it's a change I guess from the daily Kai kicking! 😜 I also like to go by just because someone doesn't agree with me doesn't mean I'm right 🤷‍♂️ COYG.

20 Oct 2026 15:19:37
If Arteta drops Saka then that's absolutely fine by me, no player should ever be undoppable.

I just think the claims he's been useless for 3 years are totally exaggerated unrealistic, I couldn't careless if he's homegrown, cost 100 million or came on a free transfer Saka is a top class player and Arteta is managing him how he sees best and that's fine with me.

20 Oct 2026 17:04:22
Hi Dublin, its your opinion that Saka has been useless for 3 years and if you genuinely believe that statement is true then you are fully entitled to it, but just because people don't agree with it doesn't mean they are treating Saka differently to other players it simply means they see things very differently to yourself.

I personally was disappointed to see Martinelli and Trossard leave and have often defended them both alongside Noni when others have singled them out for unfair criticism, so why on Earth wouldn't i challenge your unfair 3 year claims about Saka? i'm not treating Saka differently mate, i generally think its you who is doing that for reasons best known to yourself.

21 Oct 2026 03:18:37
Sussex when did I say sell him lol I said serious questions have to be asked! And who ever starts or doesn't start I have no say over what so ever I'm nothing to do with Arsenal i just support them and voice my concerns.

21 Oct 2026 03:25:15
62 I'm saying it because he isn't performing at a top level in my opinion like I said I personally think 6 league goals is not good enough but if you do that's your opinion, the thing I find funny about some members they will pull you on a post and say it's ridiculous but when some members do the same to there post they say it's " my opinion " lol, and if you can't beat a single olayer in 90 mins and can't beat the first man taking a Corner then I thing dowman should be given a chance.

21 Oct 2026 03:27:24
And like I said I hope he proves me
Wrong as I'm an Arsenal fan! That's me done on the saka saga you're all to emotional lol just joking before you all kick off.

21 Oct 2026 10:21:24
You said and I paraphrase ' sell our attack and start again and that includes star boy' blah blah. Then said attack went and won the league 🤷‍♂️ When someone makes such a ridiculous statement it sticks. Going to have a lie down now as way too emotional. Maybe you were tired and emotional when you made this statement 🤷‍♂️ COYG.

21 Oct 2026 13:08:28
Did I mention saka because I can't remember mentioning him exactly if I did I did that's my opinion mate like you have yours lol don't get upset mate it's all good, if an offer came in of 80m I'd snap it up.

21 Oct 2026 13:09:12
Ah bless I'm sorry I've upset you lol.

21 Oct 2026 13:25:57

Sussex I don’t want to argue because I think your a sound bloke and I really enjoy reading your post always have from when I was a lurker and plucked the nerve to join lol , you have your opinion and I respect it the same as everyone else’s, I didn’t mean to come across like I was arguing with everyone just because they like saka I like saka I’ve said every time I hope he proves me wrong big time, have a good one mate sorry if I came across like a t*4*

21 Oct 2026 15:58:48
We do need a shake up in our attack - from MAs mindset & philosophy to playing faster passes in front of players plus upping the sheer quality in the attack - the attack didn't win us the league it was Corners & Defense. We need to improve our attack with better quality players, freeing up the players we have & adding quality on wings, middle and creative spots.

I think Saka can be part of the solution about the only one but he needs help from Arteta ( most attackers have regressed under him ) and his pals. I don't really like Noni but at least he showed some intent while other cowards hid in their positioning, runs & passes.

21 Oct 2026 18:16:43
Always so negative Dublin, what's up with you fella??

21 Oct 2026 18:51:39
I'm too long in the tooth to worry about opinions on here, it's healthy debate and just proves in life we are all different! You haven't come across as a **** just be aware you might be wrong and on this occasion you are well wrong! And I love that you compound with the he's worth £80 mill. Each to their own!

I think we need a monster left wing who will a) score goals and create chances b) give the opposition tons to think about so they can't just double up on Saka and nullify us! It's a win win! Hoping Tzolis is that player but suspect we will be in for Yildiz, Kroupi or Williams hopefully in January! Toodlepips COYG.

22 Oct 2026 20:10:53
You know my thoughts - Yildiz & Kroupi.

19 Oct 2026 07:01:34
The Arsenal we are the champions of England. would like to see us play with a we are champions mentality and go out there and really put it on the opposition and and take the game to them. we seem to be too slow in what we are doing. yet on occasions when we have speeded up our play we have looked fantastic but it just seems to be in bits and pieces. we all know that we're capable of it would be nice to see it more.

yesterday I actually nodded off for 15 minutes in the first half. never done that before watching my beloved Arsenal . I know the Premier League is a marathon not a sprint. But if we're not careful other teams could become far away over the horizon with their bigger goal difference and it will be to late for us COYG/VTH ONE❤️ The Arsenal. ✌🏻&🫶🏻 to you all.

20 Oct 2026 11:34:22
Saka is a great player but not playing well and too safe. I wish he'd receive the ball faster & in front of him so he's running into the ball rather than receiving back to goal. Is it Arteta with his defence first and safe attitude? I'd say quite a bit BUT Noni ran at Forest and shot - Saka was too safe.


The boss needs to manage our attackers better and put more pressure on being fast & creative rather than safe it's not a great day if we drop Saka for Noni. Arteta needs to help Eze, Saka, etc by being more adventurous.
