YELLOW or RED: Was Gabriel Martinelli fortunate to have only been booked vs Southampton for pushing the ref?

jamaicabediako2180d ago

Sell Arsenal and keep Martinelli

daniel.owen180d ago

He does have a track record of doing silly things like this. His own worst enemy at times

mutsafm181d ago

Red would have done Arsenal a favour. Martinelli is a liability that can't go past his full back

What did you make of Viktor Gyokeres' cameo during Southampton vs Arsenal?

jamie.brown82181d ago

Did all he could and got the goal. He should have started imo! Stop playing Gabriel Jesus!!!

16-year-old Max Dowman was Arsenal's best player vs Southampton. Is that good news or should the other players be embarrassed?

freddie183d ago

He is certainly a baller, the rest of the team need to have a look in the mirror tho… is the bottle actually happening 👀

callum_boyle183d ago

He’s shown his class in plenty of other games. Yes, big stars underperformed but that doesn’t take the shine off his performance. Let’s celebrate the kid rather than find things to play it down

Will Kepa Arrizabalaga play another game for Arsenal?

catherinepotter75968d ago

DEAR GOD I REALLY REALLY HOPE NOT ,INFACT IF YOU TELL ME WHEN AND WERE HE'S GOING I'LL TACK HIM MYSELF 🙏 ❤️ 💙 💖 ♥️

daniel.owen183d ago

I can see him staying over the summer, so expect to see him in the EFL Cup in September

freddie183d ago

Doubt it, Arteta loves him for some reason…

Who was the worst performer for Arsenal against Southampton?

patrickkwaria08182d ago

Poor performance that coursed the first score

antonakisdemetriou769182d ago

All top 3 were non participants it seemed

daniel.owen183d ago

He wasn't the worst, but this did feel like a real opportunity missed for MLS

Max Dowman starts!!! Thoughts on the starting XI, Arsenal fans?

charlesjones183d ago

Can't wait to watch Dowman

shamanth.jayaram183d ago

Great to see Max but huge game for MLS. With Hincapie out, it’s his time to shine

How many changes would you make to our Arsenal predicted XI vs Southampton?

segunabey10183d ago

The formation was bad. Who plays libero instead of Rice. Merino injured. Havert can't can't sweep either. You saw him contesting for goal rather than creating goal. ..Dowman was poor against southampton..take it or not . How many threatening crosses or passes at the right time did he made. ..The 4 backline are naturally overlapping guys with no leader.

dannielssaint84209d ago

OMG, it was an amazing presentation from the youngster, he was at his peak!

mark69oliver211d ago

He got awarded Arsenal player of the match at 16 Years 66 days. Youngest ever FA Cup starter... Nothing else to add!!! Keep going Max.

Rate Marli Salmon and Max Dowman's performances vs Mansfield Town!

lockomick2206d ago

Salmon is just needs time

garypayne362211d ago

Max Dowman is the one player we have who seems to have no fear and can unlock a defence

Describe Mikel Arteta's back three experiment in one sentence...

The Gunners used a new tactic against Mansfield.

shamanth.jayaram210d ago

Not great at all, but he did say they only trained that for 10 mins

emediredgerim1211d ago

Trial and Error Method 😁

What on earth do you make of the team Mikel Arteta has picked vs Mansfield?

alexandermccaffrey99210d ago

I think he was trying to give a breather to our main boys, particularly in defence, which would maybe explain why we started with 3 at the back? To put our performance down to the team Mikel selected is disrespectful to Mansfield who were brilliant.

Agree or disagree, Noni Madueke is showing that he could keep Bukayo Saka out of Arsenal's starting XI.

emediredgerim1211d ago

I believe So. He needs to be consistent, more prayerful and more tactical

justmuchmuso230d ago

I believe noni madueke his form is getting better and so is saka but I prefer saka play in central midfield for now

Riccardo Calafiori is injured in the warm up, how much of a blow is this?!

paulfalconerkhan231d ago

He's an integral part of the team so we need Riccardo back soon.
