Could easily see both of us going winless this season.
Are Sheffield the worst prem team ever?
Sheff United chasing Derby’s 89 goal conceded in 38 game season record.
I know it’s Sheffield, but I’m so happy for Eddie and Tomi!
*Sheffield Utd
i hope now that arsenal has a great striker in nketiah, i hope they let go of jesus ,who is cleary not good enogh for arsenal aspirations !
jesus is trash let him downgrade back to brazil!
back to palmeirasConceding almost 3 goals a game on average now. Not great.
I know the “will it be worse than Derby’s point total” is overused, but… man
I know eddie will get all the plaudits, and rightly so, but Declan Rice, game after game, week after week. What a player, man.
Saliba looked like a pro player subbing for in a sunday league game today too. Sheffield United were awful, he barely even had to jog. You know you’re in the mud when the human victory hookah elneny gets a little 10 minute cameo.
Nketiah continues to dab on the haters. He’s even top goalscorer for Arsenal now! Think his ability to spin, turn and shoot is genuinely his greatest asset. Throw in his improved linkup play and you can see why Arteta still rates him.
Also just generally a good vibes match for Arsenal today. ESR starting and assisting a goal, Kiwior starting, Elneny coming on, Vieira and Tomiyasu scoring. That was fun!
r/Gunners has pre-made apology forms if you want to fill one out. Jk. Gunners hate on Nketiah more than r/soccer
Your defence is in trouble, Nketiah in the room on the official speaker 🤣🤣
Ah taking relegation fodder to the cleaners, I love that. Gotta get that GD looking good
TQVM Sheffield for the + 5 goals difference padding
They are definitely going down if they continue playing like this, was a stroll in the park really, so much so that the Emirates was emptying before full time
EDDIE!!!
