Great game, two sides just going at it end to end, throwing crosses into the box, not just endless passing across the back 4

What a dreadful display by Arsenal tonight.

Fcuking risk free football that will push people away from watching them.

And as for Martinelli, what a piece of shit. Guy does his ACL and you throw the ball at him and then try to push him off the pitch?

He should be banned for 6 games.

How nobody decked the Cnut I don’t know.

Agreed, but Arsenal only needed the draw, so they aimed for that, and got it.

Only needed a draw? We’ll see about that come the end of the season.

If that is a display of their ambition against a team that is no threat to their title ambitions then I can see that having an impact in the longer term (on future performances). It does look like the title is theirs to lose (hate that expression but I’ve gone there) but I’ve said before that I don’t think Arteta has what it takes to win the big titles because he is too cautious… tonight just reignited that thought.

They're an awfully boring side, and will be the most boring team to ever win the PL.

Their fans are pretty awful too. They're defence of Martinelli conveniently leaves out the part where Martinelli throws the ball at Bradley whilst he's laying on the floor. Unfortunately Slot gave them an out to excuse Martinelli thanks to his post match comments.

Nah. It was a big missed opportunity. Maybe a bit hyperbolic but a win could've basically won them the title last night.
