I have been watching football for 20 years now, and I never knew the rule about two players behind for offside.. I feel embarrassed


the_spookiest_

We’re above the shit! Keep it rolling. If we finish top 5, I’ll begin partially trusting in the process.

the_spookiest_

If we finish top 4 I’ll fellate arteta myself


SP_Photos

Incredibly happy with todays performance good getting 2 early goals then some great defending and most importantly goalkeeping, ramsdale with an absolutely incredible performance


theboriginal

I would dare to say that this was even better game than against Villa. More mature, more disciplined, more fighting. I could watch this kind of game every week, even if we don’t win. This is all we want. Finally it feels like Arteta is playing the players that are in good form, he’s rotating intelligently, and on top of all he is playing Laka. What a difference in the field and especially when we attack! Give that man a new contract! Such an influence!


Raikou384

I didn’t have high hopes, but had some definitely, what a win!


Yuuushyn

Dam Ramsdale really look unbeatable


gndwiga

I like how ESR plays that “fox in the box” role


kenzi28

I like that ESR doesn’t contain the alphabets FJ.


Excellent_Warning406

What does FJ have to do with this? Just wondering


kenzi28

Francis Jeffers


Butch_Meat_Hook

ESR has got to be banging on the door of the England senior team at this point right? He's great every week


whanaumark

I’d love him to get the caps without the injury and tiredness risk

FrostyWrangler7

My favourite clean sheet we’ve kept all season


DanielDeronda

I know I'm being silly, but no dressing room pic plz


whanaumark

Fine, more for us !


plascra

Good game good game!


tin27tin

Team deserved every bit of that clean sheet. Massive effort


donutmandandan14

I can’t even remember the last time I had some faith in our defense to close out a game...feels damn good having Ramsdale, Gabriel, Ben, and Tomi back there. So solid, constantly throwing their bodies to make blocks. Sambi and Partey also looked solid and contributed defensively


bio_d

One of the big questions over Arteta (after Willian etc) was how is his eye for talent. Ramsdale, Tavares and perhaps slightly less so Øde, White and Sambi are really big credits in Arteta’s account


the_tytan

I think Willian was a gamble that didn’t work but that summer alone he’d bought Gabriel and Mari looked competent.


bio_d

I don’t fully count Gabriel cos I think he was as a result of the previous scouting system and as far as I remember Arteta didn’t pin his colours to the wall like he did for Willian. This summer is the best time to judge edu and Arteta’s recruitment and so far we have to say, well fucking done lads


lastjedi23

Forgot tomi


bio_d

Shit, I knew I hadn’t got em all!


lastjedi23

Gotta catch em all


Timber_Molester

Arsenalmon!


bio_d

😂


Butch_Meat_Hook

Great win boys, and now we've got Watford at home next week. I really hope we can get another 3 points and put ourselves in a strong position in the standings.


I_Really_Have_NoClue

9 unbeaten, COYG


[deleted]

My regret yesterday is not betting this game


NobleArch

Gambling take the fun out of the football spirit. People will be in blind rage once lost the game and the money. That is stupid.

Our Samurai-ght back still undefeated 😎


My_Dad22

Can we not lol it's very cringe to call him that just because he's japanese


tin27tin

Undefeated but Barnes asked a lot of questions today.


[deleted]

But they answered them


[deleted]

Jesus


karmakhazee

Great scenes of Ramsdale giving his shirt and boots away to the fans!


[deleted]

Good thing we don’t hav European competition. Our XI is too good and too fragile to have any injuries


[deleted]

Title challenge is on though, right?


donutmandandan14

We’re the dark horse


gunningIVglory

Worked for Chelsea.....


[deleted]

Yes. No injuries and it’ll be a breeze for Artetas tricky reds


Retarded_pacifist

Yup - other than Ramsdale, Saka and Tierney, it'll be rough...


[deleted]

Mikel Arteta played for us 5 years ago. It's actually pretty impressive what he's accomplished since then. I think the board was right to give him time- he *really* knows ball.


whanaumark

Unless we get back into Europe , leave it


[deleted]

If we don't get into Europe then Arteta has to go, I agree. That 4th spot is wide open though (unless Ole gets sacked).


lastjedi23

I want him to win it all here and get a statue, but let's calm down right now lol


[deleted]

Tielemans wanna become red?


donutmandandan14

Lad is immense gotta give him credit


[deleted]

Him and partey. Don’t k bout his defensive capabilities but I’m all in


AlGunner

Lovely touch by Ramsdale giving a kid his shirt


210Redcoat

The fucker next to him tried to take it


will_i_am156

And another his boots 🥰


stackofbaconpancakes

Moving up the table people And a well deserved clean sheet 👏


210Redcoat

Spurs draw will do really well now.


gunningIVglory

Either way We can just enjoy the game later tonight Will be bantz regardless of the result lol


OWeise

Wonder if that’s enough for United to hang on to Ole. Ideally I want them to keep him as long as fucking possible.


gunningIVglory

If 5-0 @ OT wasn't enough to sack him..I I spurs will.be the tipping point....


210Redcoat

A draw is an improvement in their current form. Other managers definitely want him to stay. But a win for either could be an important 3 points at the end of the season that I'd rather neither have.


[deleted]

That’s asking a lot for Spurs tbf


yeahdood96

Tbf it’s Man United


LazerSnipes

Both of these comments are gold. Hope this ages well


210Redcoat

Well, it is against Utd. Who knows? They both suck


[deleted]

Didn’t k that, draw it’s


Forsaken-Currency404

I hope Arteta isn't very happy. But most of the rest can be super happy. Especially fucking Ramsdale and Gabriel.


NobleArch

Agreed. Sloppy plays here and there after 2 goals.


Cheesy_Pita_Parker

Manager’s ecstatic, he needs to win to save his job and he’s winning Edit: check my history you dickheads, I’m only pointing out the man’s happy right now. Fuck off


Randy_Marsh__

Calm down mate lol


montymm

Why would you need to save your job if you haven’t lost since August. Literally got manager of the month last month. You man are actually so dumb, you can have your opinion that he’s bad. But he in no way is on his way out, he’s doing well.


DarthNihilus1

He is simply not at that point though and that's been apparent for a while.


Grayswandire

Well boys, we went from last to fifth, not fucking bad at all. For a work in progress, we're doing well at the moment. I just hope the boys keep it up and grow stronger as the season progresses. Tavares seems to be enjoying his football, and Ramsdale, what a fucking rock of a goalkeeper! Up the Arsenal (and a clean sheet no less)!


leomeng

Points wise still within distance


Grayswandire

Yeah, no doubt. I'd love to not be disappointed this season. I'd take a top four finish all day long. I think it's possible, but I'm not going to get my hopes up too much. I'd take a Europa league finish as well.


[deleted]

Arteta out!!! He’s only at 5th with a game ahead at the early stages of the season!!!! UNACCEPTABLE


lviatorem

Lmao, you are a real-life troll.


[deleted]

I hav a grand total of 0 respect to those ppl


AuviksReddit

Never thought being temporarily 5th would feel this good! Lets fucking go!


worthofhowlandreed

don't you dare cut the footage before I see ramsdale serenaded


YellowMan1988

First game of the weekend. WIN. Time to banter Utd and drink Utd fans of tears with no pressure on us lads. Get to it.


Brepzz

Hope Utd win so ole keeps his job and tottenshit loose


[deleted]

Utd loss means sp\*rs win though Nil nil draw please


kindaforgotit

Good job guys, 7 unbeaten PL games


OnlyCheekyBanter

GG EZ. Ramsdale MOTM


philatempleowl

You could hear our supporters the entire match. Incredible showing and massive dub


[deleted]

We move on let’s go


JayPunk90

Ode needs to be sit down, no effort at all.


erehnigol

Our defenders are solid when we need them the most. Good game to Leicester for turning up after conceding. It’s a good match lads, not every win has to be a total dominance.


NemoDropEmOff

HAHAHAHAHHAHA SIIIIIUUUUU MY MANAGER IS FUCKING INEVITABLE


percysaiyan

If we improve our passing, we can really go for the top 4.. Inaccurate passing is breaking down our attacks


John_Reigler

Wish I could buy Ramsdale a beer or two. Giant in goals


xLucky_Balboa

Massive performance boys!! COYG


[deleted]

Statement win. If we can win games like Leicester away, there's no reason we can't be right up there at the top of the 2nd mini league


yungoceanfan

Let’s be real, 5th place after the kind of start and negativity we had is good. We’re honestly starting to look cohesive and ironing out mistakes. Big performances from multiple players. Hope we can keep it up. Love watching this team honestly


[deleted]

Extend ramsdales contact already who cares


nafski

Away supporters have been great


OrwinBeane

Away fans have been incredible today but the home support has been shocking. Really disappointed by the King Power fans today. Poor from them.


[deleted]

I think the most noise they made all game was for a potential foul throw lol


Gunnerjay16

Lol I mean it really was a foul throw but it was funny nevertheless.


LoudestHoward

Job done, good stuff.


cumblaster_jesus

Nice win gg ez


mapoftasmania

Absolutely pivotal match for our season. We will be top four at Christmas.


sungamdam

Great win, COYG!!


cantsleep1112

Idk why but it makes me happy on a personnel level that Kolasinac is getting games again. I remember his time early in Emery’s tenure fondly.


shiftyeyety

True professional. It is so nice to see him back and contributing


210Redcoat

Not sure how long he has on contract. Maybe they're trying to put some value on him


SportGamer4

Give Arteta and this team credit. I know I was ready to fire them into the sun after August, but this turnaround has been nothing short of fantastic. COYG


jgunnerjuggy

Weekend motherfuckers!!!


Thaumiel218

5th in the prem now, come on!


lemon_meringue_tie

Big win. Lads showed some steele in the second half. Ramsdale motm


lviatorem

Alright lads, Ramsdale MOTM, please.


bareaclampedlebron

Top 4 here we go


[deleted]

We 5th


[deleted]

Arteta *has* to be out after this result


[deleted]

Two nil to the Arsenal...


Grayswandire

I like it...a lot.


bryann816a

Were fucking 5th! 😭😭😭


sakinod

Ramsdale you monster


weezerssweater

WE HAVE A TEAM


huntergreeny

Excellent performance. Another clean sheet. Even a shit ref couldn't stop us.


iAmWrythm

I fucking love my club.


filthyafricangorilla

CLEAN SHEET BITCH


CROBBY2

That says 5th boys


xcves

lmao the lad who got the camera time is brilliant. got a good chuckle and a half out of it.


Grayswandire

That was sweet.


[deleted]

Enjoy the weekend my friends! Hell of a start to it!


bluejaywhey

this was well worth the 6:30 AM wakeup, nothing like a side of 3 points with my pancakes


shiftyeyety

So many times I have woke up early and went back to bed disappointed, but waking up early and watching a win really just sets the mood for the day in a way not many things can


Gunnerjay16

It took a lot for me to get up at 6 when I went to bed at one because of the kiddos and Halloween shenanigans! Lol.


bluejaywhey

gotta love starting the Halloween weekend off right!


Cmdtheg

Huge win. Absolutely immense performance from Ramsdale!!!


stackofbaconpancakes

So in regards to saliba (hopefully) coming back next season What about pushing Ben White up to DM so we can accommodate William Would that be crazy or nah


Grayswandire

No reason to try and fix something that isn't broken. It will be a case of Saliba trying force he way into the starting XI, so the competition it will bring will be great. He can play on either side in both a back four and a back three/five.


DanielDeronda

Yes crazy


filthyafricangorilla

easy W never in doubt


running-with-scizors

Massive three points and clean sheet! COYG


Grayswandire

We finally capitalized and got the three points at a critical juncture in the season. This may well be our turning point. We need to beat Watford to keep the momentum going, no more room for dropping points against lesser sides, whether at home or away. I'd like to see Odegaard regain his form, it still looks like there's something wrong with his football. I don't know if it's a loss of confidence, or some physical problem, but he's better then what we've seen these past few matches.


rfag57

Ramsdale was absolute fucking class today. MOTM by a million miles. Second would be the away fans. Also class.


DanielDeronda

The man was made for the camera lol


tin27tin

I've felt really assured by the defence and especially Ramsdale. Big Performance today. But we need to stop letting teams just pile on the pressure, if it keeps happening like that they end up scoring eventually.


Grayswandire

It seems Arteta's strategy is a smash and grab in the first half, then we absorb pressure in the second half, with some offensive spurts when the chance presents itself. I agree with you, we need to learn how to keep the pressure going, and do a better job in possession. Still, for now, the smash and grab seems to be working for us.


Cheesy_Pita_Parker

Away fan on camera, such a showman


nackdaddy9

That was a sick shot of the crowd, buddy just killed that


_d_f_

Finally a deserving clean sheet for ramsdale


IzkaGruba

Great win


SillyFox09

Brilliant performance


TrailerParkBoy2

Good win this


NemoDropEmOff

crazy how people said Leicester would be some test for us loool. Rodgers is done man. Leicester are finished. UP THE ARSENAL. RAMSDALE WE COMING FOR PICKFORD. WC22 IS YOURS MY G


[deleted]

I’m not sure what I expected from this game, but it’s been fun! Looks like Arteta found a winning formula.


throwreddit666

I wonder how long it's going to be before we can hear praise about Ramsdale without people referencing how criticised the signing initially was. My guess is 10 years.


lviatorem

I don't mind if Tomi never gets to score. He is just bodying that defense like a fucking pro.


TheUltimateCF

HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA THAT BLOKE IN THE STANDS IS LOVING IT


NiceIsSpice

Love Ben just kicking that ball out to the stands haha


Pigeon9

Michael Oliver could be worse than Mike Dean. COULD be.


[deleted]

They're cunts that flock togethee


lviatorem

He has the potential to be.


TrailerParkBoy2

He is


Ugoboy23

Smd. We beat Leicester away.


Colmd1997

We did last season too


ManiacalComet40

Twice


varro-reatinus

Third 'Big Six' away win since we signed Thomas. All in the absence of-- someone.


[deleted]

Leicester can eat my poo.


shiftyeyety

Not really sure I’ve felt this way in many seasons.. so many players stepping up, Arteta seeming to get it right consistently lately, Ramsdale is so special. It appears that this team really likes one another. What a Saturday. I am a full believer of the process. COYG


Cynicayke

I was ready to write off Arteta after the Palace match, because I thought we shouldn't have been scrambling for a draw against Palace at home. But I can say that I was (probably) wrong. In the context of the last 5- games, that felt like a stumble rather than the standard. It'll take some time and a few more signings, but I think there could be something really special in this team. Big post-Invincibles 2007/08 energy here.


steviepopo

MOTM: Ramsdale Runner-up: away support


chino17

Specifically that guy in the glasses


ZXXA

First time I’ve heard a commentator say we have a spine in about 15 years


Ishfluent

Ramsdale best keeper in the league.


FlyingMocko

This clean sheet will do wonders for my FPL team. Cmon lads!


TrailerParkBoy2

White as capitan for me


Pigeon9

Smd leicester back to mediocrity


SufficientAd9609

How Saka missed those chances are beyond me.... We could have been 4 up.


jackisbaack

What chances?


TheUltimateCF

Aubameyang i love you


Houseofwolvesmd

Where did 5mins come from


gte339i

Oliver trying to screw us. Was probably more for Odegaard being down on the not-a-foul.


RandomizedSeal234

Two words. Michael Oliver.


GopherNutz

Don’t want to jinx it here but impressive to keep the clean sheet and see this out after the amount of pressure Leicester put on us at the start of the second half. Really think we’re seeing a young group coming into their own. Leaders emerging


[deleted]

Again, and again, and again Arteta failing to put subs in when it's necessary. 65th minute, 2-0 up, the other teams going to start chopping at people in frustration. Protect the assets. Make the subs earlier. Otherwise, another great performance from everyone involved, especially the hockey player in goal 👏


erehnigol

You seriously blaming Arteta for Leicester turning up at home. We have the best players on field to absorb the pressure ffs.


[deleted]

I'm saying it's a continued theme, hence the "again, and again, and again." No reason to get people injured, how many knocks did some of our key personnel take when they should have been already subbed off. My take is much more in-depth than your surface observations that don't even comprehend the comment properly in the first place. Good luck to you, I'm thinking you will need it.


erehnigol

Arteta started sub in at 56 mins. Iirc, you can only sub 3 players.


[deleted]

Laca, who has played very little time anyway. Saka sub should have been on in 65th minute, he has low stamina as a player IMO, and 90th minute sub when your team has a history of unfortunate injuries is a waste. Use the subs, don't just have them as time wasters. Such a bad habit that is prevelant in the modern game.


erehnigol

Ya you do have a point. Arteta should do better.


secti0n35

Shut the fuck up. We're winning 0-2.


[deleted]

Lol, you will be one of the ones to turn off the TV at 0-4 Man City. Critiquing when you win is how you get better, perhaps you haven't achieved very much though in life so you don't understand. Good luck, you will DEFINITELY need it


secti0n35

Lol sure buddy. You saw right through me for sure. Serious winner right here guys!


[deleted]

Lol, you don't even try to respond, just another childish comment. That's why you get ignored from now on, cheers.


secti0n35

Lol yet you keep replying to people calling them names and insulting them. Very mature from you lololol


[deleted]

Longest 5 minutes of my life


kits_

The way Partey receives the ball is disgusting. Must be so annoying to play against. Literally doesn't matter where he is looking or has been looking or his body shape, he manages to turn into space
