Arsenal v Aston Villa Post-Match Thread

However coming through that ridiculous December period beaten only once is quite frankly extraordinary.

This is the bigger picture we need to remember at times like this.

Seconded, and we continue to give up really soft goals, it was bound to end at some point.
I’m almost ok with it being this lot, the thought of winning 14 in a row and losing to Palace, for me would be a lot worse.

We’ll batter Forest and the new run starts.

UTV!

Re squad depth - we have two senior players for every position (García for Cash being questionable) which is the general benchmark, and today 5 of ours were injured or suspended - Mings, Torres, Cash, Kamara and Barkley plus Onana from half time on. Arsenal's only injury was Rice. So, we don't actually have a small or weak squad. We just are missing some due to the usual reasons.

This is a good point.

Garcia is a conundrum, he quickly needs some games to test his ability. Lose cash and the whole team needs a re-jig. That’s always going to be a problem.

Special mention for Unai to disappear down the tunnel and not shake that wankers hand, was brilliant.
Celebrating like he’d won the league every goal and at FT, fuck him. As much as I hate 115, I’d prefer them to win it than that cnut and shit fans.

A game too far and excactly why PSR is a problem.  Fcuk everyone.

Problem solved then. It finishes next season doesn’t it?

Seriously, we’re about the twelfth richest club in the world, with one of the very best managers, in competition with clubs who are allowed the same number of players in the first team squad.

The PSR blaming is wearing thin with me. Player sales, the academy, scouting and recruitment can overcome it, otherwise we’d be below Chelsea, Spurs, Liverpool and Manure.
