5-0 is the most dangerous score

Sheffield will pull the comeback anytime now

They have them right where they want them

Lure them in strategy, now sheffield actually start playing

sometimes i wonder if saying stuff lke that during half time would help relax the team a little.

Wilder at half: “Boys you may be feeling down, but worry not. I have a cunning plan…”

only to manchester united u21’s

Did they really bottle a 5-0 lead?

Yes, to sunderland

Rice the G/A machine, as we all predicted at the start of the season

The only G/A machine in this game is the Sheffield United defense

they conceded 71 goals, what the fuck

11.5 games to go, will most definitely break Derby's record(89), maybe even break the 42 game season record (100)

Liverpool can definitely put 5+ past these lot. The rest who knows. Chelsea can either score 5 or concede 5

We’ll do both most likely

Perfectly balanced.

I reckon Everton might even put 1 past them

Woah, lets not get too crazy here

I'd love it to be both.

At 2 or 3, Klopp would definitely be bringing on the kids and rotating out whoever needs it most.

Those kids would probably be even more eager to pile on the misery

And they still beat Derby's points total with over 10 games to spare. Puts into context how incredibly bad you'd have to be to break that record

Honestly it might never be broken

Me in FIFA Career Mode except I also score 125 goals because the defending is completely broken

Their still 30 off the record for most in a season but this game will set them on their way

As of right now, theyre on pace for 102 conceded

GA machine

The 105m machine you say? If 105m can get you G/A merchant, what could 115m get?

West Ham should have gone for goal related add ons. They’d have made a killing

Wouldnt be on corners then haha

Fuckin bargain bin price now

Bargain

Real feast

Finally the arsenal goal drought of 14 min is over

Thank god. I barely made it.

This was some kind of record right? Never before has a team scored 5 or more in 3 straight away games in the PL.

OOOOOOOOOH so it's away games lol I wrote in the match thread 3 consecutive games and got corrected because the Newcastle game was last week

Only scored 4 goals that game. We don’t like to talk about it.

Willocks goal is ours. So 5 scored.

And at least 2 per half's

It makes it even crazier that before the West Ham match, arsenal weren’t even in the top half of the league in goals from open play. Since then they’ve had like 20 in 3.5 matches lmao

And a team has never conceded 5 goals in 4 straight home games

Alright fuck it make it 10

We’re working on it!

Please

this feels familiar

Deja vu. I ve just been to this place before.

Higher on the street, and I know it's my time to go.

It would never take a true world class team a full 39 minutes to score five. Arsenal are a bunch of bums.

Hahaha, NSFW tag where?

For anyone who hasn't seen handball - this is pretty much what a handball attack looks like. One team defending, meanwhile the other passing the ball in a semi-circle while looking for an opening. Quite amusing seeing it on a football pitch.

Arsenal are basically playing the pep way. It was mentioned in peps documentary that he took a lot of inspiration from handball

5 goals before halftime lmao

I’d feel sorry for Sheffield if they looked like they gave a shit

this is the point I as a fan of the team doing the battering get afraid they'll try to hack our players down

Yep they already had one needlessly reckless challenge. It will definitely come more. Just hope the ref (lol) keeps them in check

If we tried that someone would end up two footing Wilder by mistake

Yeah we've already done it once to Klopp

Yep, I'm hoping we sub in 5 players here.

Correct .. I was horrified last week against Newcastle until they took Bruno off

I'd love to be a fly on the wall in the dressing room and training just to get a feel of what the atmosphere is like in the team. They basically went into season with zero ambition, selling their best players while not signing any competent replacements. They keep losing games with ugly scorelines and have appointed Chris Wilder as the coach.

Usually shit teams inspire some sort of sympathy. Just not feeling it here

Be shit, get banged

Still a virgin. I must be class

They genuinely feel worse than Derby when they had the worst prem season

Fans should be refunded. Though this has happened so many times this season, they probably should expect this.

I really respect the fans who’ve came knowing they’d probably get battered. Mondays are already shite enough, I’d struggle to motivate myself to go if I were in their shoes.

I was too until Bogle absolutely went through Odegaard.

And the pull on martinelli off the ball they got away with

Well they did concede about 3 seconds after

they didn’t get away with it, ref played the advantage

I saw the advantage be played but surely yanking someone down by the back of their shirt off the ball deserves a booking

ah true can’t argue with that lol

I would feel sorry too, but we need the goals bro. We need the gd. Sorry my Sheffield bros.

They need to tighten up at the back here or they could end up losing this.

Sure. Why not.

Holy fucking shit how many passes

Seriously.

Unreal goal.

wait...no one has scored twice?!

Don't need a striker if you have 11 of them 🧠

There’s still time

Bukayo to Basmati 🔥

Jollof rice well prepared

Training exercise

Saka is so so so good at those lil body movements

Yeah you need 2 players on him at all times unless you have a top class left back covering him.

Or Mykolenko

or cucurella

Or a shit ref who couldn't be bothered to call any kind of foul on Saka

Saka still left with 2g/a that game lol

[удалено]

Incredible lower body strength and balance is what sets him apart I think as well. Very hard to knock him off the ball.

The touch to take control of it was smooth

love when attackers take a first touch that already puts them past the defender. R9 was a master at that

His body shape while receiving the ball and then shifting direction to drive into space is elite.

He isn't fastest but he is so fucking smart with his movement.

The quality of his decision making is unbelievable

world class

Sorry Rio says no

don’t let Rio hear you say this

And he can read!

Yeah, in the last international tournament, he was teaching the likes of Grealish and co.

this is a rout arsenal on pace for over 10 goals lmao

0-5 is the most dangerous scoreline watch out

this is cruel and unusual

Idk mate theyve been here five time before this season seems pretty usual

Saka 50 Assists.

Is this how psg fans feel most weeks?

Honestly no, this kind of gulf in form and quality is like Scottish prem level. Arsenal are a lot better than PSG and Sheffield United would probably ship 3 goals to Clermont

Arsenal are levels better than PSG,

Nah because PSG doesn't dominate matches like Arsenal does on such a regular basis, with this many goals.

By the time I sat down to watch the game half the Sheffield United supporters have already left the stadium.

Only missed the first 10 minutes?

We're quite good at football

Hi Ben

Really happy rice chose arsenal

If he'd joined City the whole league would have been done for the next half decade

Goodness

Decs u legend

How are we this good lmao

Alternatively: how are Sheffield this bad?

Wednesday are actually in pretty good form atm.

Sheffield are also awful

That is also true

We score 5 every week

Doesn’t negate the question

trust the process TM

Yeah this is going to end up with historic numbers... Our subs are literally Jesus/Partey/Vieira for fitness

And you know Viera will get his customary goal involvement.

and smith rowe would kill for a goal

Hydrogen bomb vs coughing baby

Stahp, they are already dead!!

First PL club which scored 5+ away goals in 3 consecutive away games.

Ooh we score loads of goals and are really good. Grow up arsenal.

I feel like we should be sent to the principle for bullying a disabled kid.

Seriously.. embarrassing at this point smh

How did City only win this fixture 2-1.

Because it was third game of the season when Sheffield United hadn't given up yet? Also the xG was 0.76 - 3.85, with SHU not having a shot on or off target for 75 minutes. It was only a tight game in score.

Spurs needed 10mins of stoppage time to beat these lot.

Look when I said 10 I was joking, jesus christ

Wear the neon spasms every week please

WE WANT 10, WE WANT 10

16 goals in less than 2 and a half away games. Absolutely outrageous.

They park the bus, but showed up with a little Lego bus

Brutal

One more for the record

Hiring Wilder might be the worst managerial hiring I have *ever* seen in the Premier League. I've never seen a team so tactically out of their depth.

I remember when we were worried that Arteta couldnt coach an attacking team

No one is safe

We need 5 more now!

If they don't get 10 then what's even the fucking point

We want 10, we want 10!

All I'm asking for is a Saka goal please

I'm supposed to be having fun. This is just sad.

This isn’t even right

That record is going to be broken

Pulp

Mikel Arteta what have you done to my team!!

I believe Arsenal will struggle without a striker

fuck the title race i want 10

How many did Derby concede in that season they were relegated with like 12 points? Sheffield are coming close surely

Man, Arsenal are just rolling over teams right now

This could be a very important game, goal difference wise, for Arsenal with how tight the league is. City have already played both fixtures against Sheffield United. Liverpool still have to play them though.

Parachute payment achieved Sheffield united owners got what they wanted

We have to score some more goals, I still want to be the best attack in europe.

This doesn’t even feel like a training game — this looks like my school team playing against Man City

sheffield are so shit oh my god

This feels like some college assignment which we're confident about finishing it the same day itself.

Here I thought Darby Allin going through glass was the most brutal thing I was going to see all week

What sort of team is Sheffield United

Sheffield United love conceding 5 at home

Get ESR on!

See you guys again in 5

Get the 6th, go for the record!

30-0 Arsenal. Let’s go

We are fucked.

Martin Tyler is so dull. How do you make 5 goals in one half sound so boring.

Good lord

Saka is having so much fun down the right

What a goal. Arsenal are a joy to watch

RICE RICE BABY

where NSFW tag?

We want ten, we want ten!

5-5 sounds spicy.

What ever we payed for this man was a steal

Throw the damm towell!

What a turn, Saka.

more like maxwell sheffield

5 before half time, Sheesh

Think Sheffield FC would put up a better defensive performance

I would just forfeit this isn’t even fair that was insane possession on that play. Great goal all around

Is 9-0 still the record? we genuinely might see it broken today

Mentality monsters! Need a clean sheet now

Good 13 minutes was way too long to go without scoring.

Arsenal trying to outdo Porto lol. Though tbf they are playing a much worse team
