Do we need City to merely avoid defeat tonight to stop the mutants winning it at Goodison or what?

Does it actually matter? Money before Lives mate

 

[Connor]

nice to see Sky show how anti-racist it is by asking the black guests what they think about players taking a knee

Bit weird how it went from "powerful scenes" before the Villa to everyone doing it. Nice gesture, ofc, but co-ordinated PR or what

 

[PITA]

Was that over the line?

Depends whether or not the ref's watch vibrated. Certainly doesn't matter what your eyes can clearly see.

Luiz messed up again? Out of contract soon, might be his last game ha he's turned out to be an utterly predictable dreadful signing for arsenal.

Hope he's not our backup option for silva. How he's played for so many big clubs is beyond me.

Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta wants ‘key role model’ David Luiz to sign new contract
Luiz joined Arsenal from Chelsea last summer

Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta says David Luiz is a “key role model” and hopes the Brazilian defender will extend his contract at the Premier League club beyond this season.
Luiz joined Arsenal from London rivals Chelsea in August with early suggestions of it being a two-year deal but his agent told Sky Sports last week the 33-year-old had only signed for one year.

“I’m really happy with David, I want to keep him here with us. He’s been a key role model since I joined,” Arteta said at a news conference ahead of Wednesday’s game against Manchester City as the league resumes following the Covid-19 disruption
lollol

So what does this mean now?

It means much like var they can use technology to screw teams over

Nonsense that it was impeded. There's no frigger in the ground. They haven't admitted the system failed or that they made a mistake , so like var it opens up for more abuse in worst case scenarios.

Just as City v Arsenal kicked off Martin Tyler made a comment bemoaning Arsenal not wearing red and the rampant commercialism behind it. Remind us again Martin why you're sat in a stadium in Manchester commentating on a game in which observing social distancing is impossible?

Yeah kinda boring isn’t it. Like if we win the derby it wouldn’t have much replay ability would it.

Do we need City to merely avoid defeat tonight to stop the mutants winning it at Goodison or what?

Yes mate.

 

[Toast]

I think Sky have misjudged this massively.

Should have come up with a plan to jib it all off and focus on a huge build up to next season.

 

[Lelouch]

oh my god you couldn't write a worst return

 

[tsubaki]

haha Luiz again

pen city

and sent off

 

[Voodoo Billy]

How false can this sport get? Canned crowd noise, a goal that can't be awarded because the ref's watch is knackered and John Terry on his knee in a protest against racism. At least City are up!

 

[PITA]

Luiz had a mare.

Nail on head

someone in the Arsenal boardroom thought spending real money on David Luiz was a good idea.
