Saints 1-0 Arsenal - Match Thread

[SW5 SAINT]

How’s Lyanco doing…….?

[OttawaSaint]

Feels like the City game after the first 9-0. 

We're content to just hoof it clear so when we lose by 2 RH can say that it's better than getting thrashed.

Unremarkable

Nothing brilliant but no worse than salisu last week so far

Just got a yellow. 

[Lighthouse]

Oh Cedric, please never change.

[Saint_clark]

How has he decided that was a foul on them when they both ended up on their arse after shoulder to shoulder?

Don’t think he did get a yellow? 

[igsey]

Feels strange to me playing a back three without Jack Stephens.

Quite harshly IMO. It was no more than a 50/50.

[Dman]

What a shite game of football this is. 

[Lighthouse]

I didn't see a yellow and I don't think it should have been.

[BotleySaint]

Lovely free kick from Cedric haha.

[igsey]

Excellent dive by Lokonga.

It's fucking dire isn't it?

[nta786]

Valery has been our worst player on the pitch if I had to choose, what a rash challenge that was on edge of box, and also gave away that stupid pass to Nketiah earlier.

Fraser Forster easily our best player on pitch

I'll quite happily take a shite, boring 0-0 after last week's horror show.

[Saint NL]

Valery has shown that he's not good enough, I think it's time to move him on and try someone new

[bpsaint]

That yellow was probably a result of the number of fouls tbf, he was lucky to escape one just before for taking out their guy in the corner

[OttawaSaint]

Cedric is still comically bad. 😆

I am starting to sense a 0-0 result in my waters as it happens...

Nice haircut Bednarek.

Harsh on Valery, he's also had a couple of good interceptions and runs. 

Comparatively, JWP, KWP and Moi have done absolutely nothing good or bad. Just not involved.

 

[Lee On Solent Saint]

Nothing in the final third once again.

According to the Sky Sports stats no one, not even Lyanco has been booked…..!

Good defending from Perraud there. 

[Mr X]

Arsenal haven't been amazing today and we still can't trouble their keeper!

Nobody has been.

[Lighthouse]

Completely forgot Moi was on the pitch, until I saw him sat there.

[nta786]

[Lee On Solent Saint]

[OttawaSaint]

1-0!

[OttawaSaint]

Smoke my kippers that's a tidy finish by Bednarek!

[trousers]

FFS... We all know what happens when Bednarek scores first...

[Holmes_and_Watson]

Yuss!

Haven't we already broken that record earlier this season?

Glad i said it though... Maybe they heard me! 

[BotleySaint]

I think we've found our new number 9.

He might be better up front.

[Saint_clark]

Another assist for Elyounoussi. Fuck everyone who says he isn't good enough.

Those not watching probably read this and thought we'd conceded!

One of the bright points of the season. Always works hard, can score goals, totally different to the player we saw 2 years before.
Not always the best but damn he works hard.

He isn't good enough.

 

Where shall we hook up?

[Holmes_and_Watson]

nice running down their keeper there. Nice to see us with a bit of a boost.
