Arsenal 3-3 Saints - Match Thread

[bangkoksaint]

If he doesn’t change it at HT then that’ll be completely indicative of RS’s management to date. We’re carrying arguably two players 

[bobby_charles]

bets for no changes at half time? Arma needs hooking only knows which way up his luzacade bottle is 

[SonicBoom]

What does running the streets mean? For those of us not down with the kids.....

[SotonianWill]

holy fuck 

[Saint_clark]

WHAT THE FUCK IS THAT SUB SELLES YOU UTTER CUNT

[adrian lord]

He’s taken off the best player on the pitch Alcaraz

 

 

SUICIDAL

Big Paul on for AA for the long ball and get Walcott running on to balls from deeper. He hasn’t got the pace to lead the line on the counter like he has been having to do later in the half. 

not for me. We actually look dangerous on the break. If we make a change, it should be to bring more pace on in the form of Sulemana not Onuachu.

[bangkoksaint]

Tactical change? RS is pissed. FFS!,

Trouble is, even if we somehow hold on to get the win, we'll be absolute dogshit in the next game. 

[obelisk]

Alcaraz replaced? WTF?

[RedArmy]

Bizarre sub 

[saintant]

It's official - Selles is mad!!!!!!!

[Turkish]

He’s just taken off head and shoulders our best player for fucking Lyanco 🤣🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

[Archers Road Stand]

Lyanco on. Fuck off Selles. 

[bangkoksaint]

He’s just cost us the game potentially 

[LGTL]

Probably the best player on the pitch taken off for Lyanco 😂😂😂

[Dman]

Oh Ruben, Ruben, Ruben 🤦🏻‍♂️

[DT]

Lyanco for Alcaraz is the most moronic substitution I have ever seen. What an absolute bellend. We’ve now lost this 3 or 4-2. I cannot stand this utter twat of a manager. Alcaraz was brilliant. Better take him off then. Utter tool.

Nice to celebrate an excellent Saints goal and going into a 2-0 lead.

Top Six Sports doing their usual Top Six Team Vs WHOTHEFUCKCARES routine with their coverage of this one. When we went 2 up Gary Neville described it as "weird". 

 

[petermcpete]

Unbelievable.

Both the first half performance, and Selles' apparent attempt at half time to fuck it up

[Crab Lungs]

I know Alcaraz looked shagged but ffs

[Mr X]

Wtf selles has lost the plot 

[The Kraken]

What the actual fuck?

[AlexLaw76]

Well, that is a bit mental

[Jimmy_D]

Alcaraz off!?

Unless that’s actually an injury as well as changing the shape, just seems odd.

[SotonianWill]

this commentator is pissing me off with that rivals bournemouth comment 

[Killers Knee]

Selles is a demented Twat, make chatGPT the fucking manager

[Donatello]

OMG 🤣🥲

[Saint Fan CaM]

Lyanco on - Alcarez off?!?! Really??? We deserve to go down.

[Chris cooper]

Wtf has Selles just done … 

[BotleySaint]

Alcaraz must be injured surely.

If your Alcarez now you’re fuming

a goal,  assist, goal line clearance best player on the pitch and subbed at half time

What on earth is he doing. Totally and utterly mental decision. 😧

[coalman]

If you have to make a tactical change then might I politely suggest removing Armstrong and/or Elyounoussi, Ruben. 

[LaptopSaint]

Alcaraz replaced by Lyanco. If he’s not injured, Selles should be sacked on the spot

[stknowle]

Oh my fucking good God. Oh well, let’s see how the 2nd half pans out without the UNINJURED  best player on the pitch

[Saint_clark]

He's literally just given them the 3 points with that sub. Cunt.

Fullbacks getting bummed, Baz not inspiring confidence, arma and Moi being them, Carlos running the streets with Theo.

Standard selles, takes the best player off.

[aintforever]

Fucking mental

[OttawaSaint]

Are you fucking kidding me? Our best and most positive player?!?

Fuck off Selles!

[hypochondriac]

Have just come on here to say that the manager is mad. 

[Mr X]

Why wasn't AA taken off he's done fuck all 

[Saint NL]

The only logical explanation at this point, is that after relegating Saints, Selles takes off his mask and he's that Pompey twat with the bell.

[coalman]

At least Lyanco can compete with KWP, Perraud and DCC for who gets sent off first.

[BotleySaint]

I refuse to believe any manager would sub unless he's injured. That has to be the explanation. 

[Crab Lungs]

“We’ve got Selles…”

[adrian lord]

So we’re now going to just sit in and around the D, soaking up 48 minutes of Arsenal, pressure and leaking goals. 
 

 

Great tactics.

Exactly this. Take off Armstrong, keep the centre of midfield tight. We’ve basically conceded midfield now and we’re going to sit so deep.

Moi still on the pitch running around doing not a lot as well. Absolutely fucking mental.
