I read a headline that Arsenal are favourites to sign “Man Utd Legend” Michael Carrick.

:grinning:

Massive signing for Arsenal today.

Hopefully Cazorla’s boy will follow suit.

4

They have a deal for Granit Xhaka all but done. Should be a decent signing for them

5

Granit Xhaka looks to have signed for a fee of ÂŁ25m rising to ÂŁ35m. Basic salary of ÂŁ110,000.

I know nothing about him. Knowledgable football posters @Big_Dan_Campbell @Rocko @Bandage - is he any use?

6

Lapsed poster @Rudi said that he had the potential to be the greatest swiss footballer ever a few years back when they made the Euro under 2 finals.

He was a shrewd judge

7

Arsenal the better side in the first half but it was mostly due to Moreno being utterly shit. Thought Cech should have done better for the goal and gotten closer to it. It was a good distance out and it wasn’t exactly a belter.

Chambers and Holding is going to be a fucking car crash in the second half.

8

It’s going to be a long season.

9

This could finish 2-8.

10

Much left Brian?

11

Too much. 69 gone. Trailing 2-4 and looking extremely shaky at the back.

If Wenger says there’s no one available who would improve this side he should be checked for dementia.

There’s going to be a very ugly atmosphere at FT.

3-4

Callum ‘Car Crash’ Chambers with a glancing header. Mental game.

For ten minutes Livepool looked like they were going to score with every attack. Oxlaide Chamberlain gets a consolation goal and they’ve been on the back foot ever since.

:open_mouth::open_mouth:

15

7 mins left. Game petering out a bit now.

Arsenal happy just to have made a bit of an effort to take the bad look off the result.

16

If you’re willing to look past the four goals conceded it’s been a good day at the office for Arsenal. Struggled to score too often last season and they’ve gotten three today.

17

Not much to boast about against a team with moreno and mingolet

18

Should be a handy three points for Woolwich next week with the trip to Leicester. You scored five there last season.

19

Ah lovely. Shove that up your holes… Especially you @briantinnion.

Just got away with one here at Leicester, blessed not to concede a penalty.

Keeping loads of possession but as usual don’t seem to have a focal point in attack with Giroud sat on the bench. Surprised to see Ozil sat there too.
