Good squad. Ramsey and Sanchez out. May relate to missing out on the world cup.

Arsenal has a season thread already. Why are we getting harassed with a pre game thread? Can I open a SE pre game thread on a Arsenal fan site?

I’m worried about the lack of pace down the middle with Xhaka and Mertesacker in the lineup

Because he's been far from his name...too busy doing the one corner with prossies. Thats the only success Ghana has had this year.

Adetayo Oluwayomi Dennis, Stoke Newington, is currently facing accusations of sexual assault after videos surfaced on social media, in which he is seen gyrating atop an inebriated girl at house party. Tayo claims to have been performing the one corner dance, with the song playing in the background. His trousers were down and her legs made akimbo.

Damn that should have been 2-0. Great one time shot by Chaka but a big miss by HB

Xhaka with another shot. So happy he is shooting at goal along with El Neny

Very good half so far. Xhaka has been our stand out player. Distributed very well. Lost the bail under pressure again and was lucky for a foolish intentional foul, otherwise a very good game.
