Arsenal vs West Ham (PL) 2-0

@Mondo

Arsenal will win this 2-0. Rice in the 1st half. Saka pen towards the end to put the icing in the cake.

Thought as much.

Surely this is the best prediction made on OA.

I was only eight gols out from my prediction.

I don’t see the really poor you’re seeing. Thought we had a solid first half against a well drilled defensive outfit not even attempting to play football

We were better in the second half, but first half was very poor. Nothing was clicking. West Ham were there for the taking in the first half. Match could and should have been over had we been on it today. Against a better team, we may have struggled today.

Only from a finishing perspective. Other than that, it’s not that bad. D’you remember the last 18 months? Stylistically, we’re way better than before. Much faster.

I wouldn’t say our passing was faster today, particularly in the first half. It was slow and turgid. I also think the starting line up reflected the opposition we were playing and expect we will see the same in similar games with Eze and Odegaard playing alongside each other with one DM, either Rice or Zubi, behind them.

@GC-Maniac

Saka has been really good. Couple times he created stuff out of nothing and put some really dangerous balls in the box that got wasted.

Should’ve had two assists to his name really.

Personally I think he was off the pace. Really expected him to get a couple today. It was a well taken penalty though.

@Bavin

Huge exaggeration lol come on

It was poor. I’m pretty level headed when I’m at the Emirates, even when those around me are getting frustrated. I was the frustrated one today and I was vocal about it too!

@SuperArsenal1886

Also your boy, Zubimendi is playing today after Ode went off injured. Plenty to be positive about.

My boy Zubi was class again

Just watching the post match press conferences.

Nuno is a scary bastard man

So calm, softly spoken and articulate but fuck me bet he turns into a physcopath when he’s fucked off. The sort of guy you don’t see angry often but when he is…..oh shit son.

I thought the whole team played well yesterday. No real poor performances at all. I thought Eze played fairly well despite some critics, his first touch was on point every time he received the ball, also found lovely pockets of space.

If I had to be harsh I’d say Gyok could have done better. Some heavy touches here and there but you cannot fault his workrate which always gave their backline something to think about.

Sitting next to the away fans as they sung ‘you should have signed for a big club’ to Declan, moments before he scored, was pure bliss.

Just realised this week has given us 6 valuable points where we had 0 last season. Newcastle away and West Ham at home.

On top of that Liverpool start a losing run.

Positive week.

Summerville seems a tidy player with a high ceiling. Won’t be surprised if he moves for big money in a couple of seasons. Wouldn’t mind him here marauding down our weak left wing.
