Arsenal v Aston Villa All-in-one Thread (Match #272) (Post-match #993)

[Tuscans]

According to the wireless we are zonal marking. Does it look like we are on a stream?

more clueless defending

For anyone who does not know, ours is the commentary match on 5 Live.

Waiting to see how many posters in the next hour ask where they can hear a commentary. (Why was that Millwall cup game played on a Friday evening again?!)

The reason for that Millwall match's timing was a protest against the closure of Lewisham Hospital departments and the protesters got their way recently. So, they did better that weekend than Villa.

Just not good enough is it really. El Ahmadi is not as good as Sylla at covering either.

How is that not a booking!

[Rigadon]

Second Rosicky late challenge.  No card.

[ajclayton]

Well that didn't take long. Went for 2-2 before the game, we'll see.

[Tuscans]

Get in the box boys

[Jimbo]

A fairly predictable opening ten minutes of the season.

[Dan England]

Vlaar at fault for diving in miles out of position with no chance of getting back. Poor, poor, poor. We simply cannot give good sides easy goals.

[PaulWinch again]

Better play there.

[PeterWithesShin]

4-1, we're gonna win 4-1.

[Fergal]

defensive frailties will cost us dear this season, again, unless we buy a quality experienced centre half.

[eastie]

Arsenal look vulnerable at the back , i think there will be goals in this for us , worried there will be more goals from them though.

[paulcomben]

No outing today for the Lochead bed pic. And probably not before Sep 14 for a league match.

[Tuscans]

No ones holding on to the ball up top

[Malandro]

somebody get the kin orange dot out
