starting to think that playing around Ibra limits the Utd attack

He can't "make it happen" every game now he is too old. Even if you in amazing shape your body still won't be able to recover as quick and stuff. Ivanovic prime example, that guy is a beast, still didn't mean that the start of 2015 season he just lost about a yard of pace and was not the same player as before.

Another round of Griezmann to United rumours going around. They really want to win the europe league.

It feels like United needs him to make happen every game. Their 2nd best goalscorer has 4 goals and the list thins out pretty quick after that too. Practically all the teams above Utd in the league table have a much more even distribution on goals.

I'm not sure how much you can blame Ibra on that. On one hand he's leading the team in assists too, but on the other hand some more mobile player could create way more space for the teammates. The lack of mobility gets even more of an issue when Rooney is on the pitch too.

Do you think Griezmann can replace Zlatan in the system or will the whole thing change radically if the transfer happens? They seem very different players in terms of physical profile at least.

A bit more hype for Chelsa Arsenal guys!
I doubt Chelsea will drop points but this game has the potential to be a turning point this season, the PL would be more interesting with an Arsenal win.

Really hoping for an Arsenal win today, would make things a bit more interesting. I still think Chelsea wins the title even if they lose today, but if they win today, it's a done deal.

Alonso's challenge would be a foul anywhere else on the pitch, but when it's a goal then it's a great challenge? Inconsistent.
Ross, obviously an Arsenal fan.


I think that's one of the biggest problems in football. Fouls are not fouls when they happen on a different place on a pitch and the other way round.

I think that's one of the biggest problems in football. Fouls are not fouls when they happen on a different place on a pitch and the other way round.

Elbows when both jump for the ball are simply hard to call. Because people will automatically flare their elbows when jumping high. And the elbow was covered by the body to the ref's view.

I agree that it was a foul of course.

Holy shit, what a goal

But cant believe how soft are Arsenal defenders, really ? Just put a strong foot for once... Too easy for Hazard. That same play will never happen with Chelsea defenders, they would do the foul before letting him do whatever he wants

Coquelin is Arsenal personified, lacks any kind of ambition and rather risks the goal than get a yellow

Yea agree. That's why the team will never win the league. They're all not winners.

Fun game, Arsenal showed up and let us counter them. Should have been more but we made some dreadful passes in the final 3rd.

Exactly !!! ANY TEAM with self respect would have give Hazard a kick, swallow the yellow and call it a day

But arsenal ? no, they just rather take the gamble (that WILL never pay off), and against Hazard of all players lmao. You really think Matic or Kante would let Alexis do the same ? HELL NO.

Lol liverpool. Fair enough that they haven't lost against any top 10 team so far - that doesn't really mean much when they get 1 out of 9 points in 3 matches vs teams from the bottom 4.

And Mignolet is clumsy, again. Really can't believe he's still their gk - I don't think any of the top 6 teams has any single player who is as consistently of a liability as him.

I mean don't get me wrong I can easily see them turn this game around, they've made a habit out of that.. But they also just keep failing in the same way.

This season is Chelsea's to lose. Can't see them dropping many points in the remaining fixtures while Spurs, Arsenal & Liverpool are sure to drop points.
