A literal meaning would say – Enjoy yourself while you have the chance, but it applies to the current state of Arsenal. If you are one of the miserable souls who has seen too much of mediocrity at Arsenal Football Club that sitting 5 points ahead of Manchester City led by one of the best managers ever, is not enough to hope for a title push then my friend you need to have better expectations.
More than one-third of season is over, we were playing some sublime football before the world cup and sitting on top of the table. If you say we will drop points, so will City. If you say we will be plagued by injuries, so will City.
And if you decide to bring Haaland into the conversation, I would say we have a January window coming and with Jesus out for couple of months (hopefully he will return before that), let us bring in someone who can give us what Jesus gave… and some more.
Our next 3 games are winnable, West Ham (H), Brighton (A), New Castle (H). Hopefully our players won’t be hungover from World Cup and continue with the performance. Win these 3 and we go in confidence at Sh*te Hart Lane and that’s winnable too. Say what you want, but the players have been brilliant and we have a manager in his 4th season having replaced everyone except Xhaka.
Lets do it, stars have aligned so far. Jesus injury is a concern but we can get a competition if Eddie can’t do the job. 3 strikers are not too much, we are going to qualify for Champions League anyway and I don’t see Jesus playing mid-week against better opponents alongside Premier League. 2 games a week among 3 players is okay, Balogun can wait.
Ornstein has reported that we are pretty much in conversation for 21-year old winger – Mykhaylo Mudryk. We have been looking for these kind of profiles from last couple of seasons and are in a better situation that we were in Ozil-era. I don’t mind it but hey, we need a striker first. We have enough cover on wings, ESR is coming back who can play if needed. If you have money, get a Partey competition and a CF. If you want to add Mbappe I have absolutely no problem but lets not make a Ben White of situation at Wings.
My consolation to English fans, it must have been hard but that’s football. Portugal is out, so the Cristiano v Messi final dream dies. I will love to see Messi lifting it, just because the legend deserves it. Hopefully you enjoy the semi-finals and finals and I will have enough time to keep LiR running.
Have a nice day! Lets keep our expectations high and hope higher. This late-Wenger defeatist mentality needs to go away, there is always the next season but you can only win this year for now.
Hoopah,
I’m assuming you are sitting on the beach side with a corona watching on a big screen 😅
I’m in the wrong state here 😐
You are close. Sitting about 400 m from the sea with KFC and Budweiser Magnum. That’s my favourite. Big screen to catch the culprits and hanky panky
450 year old house.
We are farmers 😷
Damn, that’s making me jealous
Hoop and Ambarish
Hi Lads. Glad you’re enjoying the game. It would be brilliant if this led to a raising of football’s profile in India. I’m still smarting from that farrago of a game in Cardiff yesterday. I hope it’ll abate by the time we play the Irons. I didn’t see the Juve game but I gather it wasn’t one of Eddie Unket’s best in an Arsenal Jersey. Enjoy your evening.

Saw an 8 min long highlight of Juventus game. Arsenal dominated both halves, particularly the first. Shooting was mostly at goal posts though. We did shoot 2 OG though, Xhaka starring in the first 😂
This game is France’s to lose. They should make drastic changes. Only Griezmann is playing well. Looks like they’ll lose, so no harm in trying to put Argentina out of joint.
Substitutions lined up ready to come in. Suddenly France players got adrenaline flowing. Game become intense
I go for a pee and France are level. Messi irritates me. Should I go for a dump?
If the first Argentina goal was fair, then kick on Thuran shins definitely was a penalty.
Ref is fushy
Referring hasn’t been any good this cup. Mbappe you beauty, anyone’s game but France favorite now.
Can’t see happening twice for Argentine. Netherlands and now France.

That Juventus game was meh. I watched a bit and moved on in my life 😃
Should have been the third for France!
Fat ref has given a card to Giroud on the bench. Meanwhile France players being felled like trees in the Amazon under Bolsonaro
Brilliant save of a bullet shot by Loris
Upamecano interceptions we’re next level. Salliba Or anyone else would not get those balls
Goal was in, but Messi appeared offside. Wonder if the referee only decides?
Taylor was supposed to officiate this match. Can’t figure how this clown got parachuted in. What we’re the…
3-3
He’s a proper bastard Martinez isn’t he. I’m kind of glad he’s no longer at Arsenal. No class whatsoever.
