All this success is weighing heavily on Arsenal and their supporters. They need not worry i dont think it will last. They could have done with going out to Atleti the pressure is too much with two competitions to fret over. The nervousness is unbelievable and the quality of their football is dull to put it mildly.

I wish them luck but not success.😎

He is a sublime footballer - a joy to watch.

Thing is, although I know they are different types of player, but Cole Palmer was on a similar level a while back. The way he would be out wide, go to go one way and then fool the defender by spinning and leaving him for dead - Palmer used to do that a lot before he lost his mojo.

Badly coached and possibly let ego get to him a bit. Only one coach we have had hasn't tried to shackle him down and that was Pochettino. Some players you just need to let them play with freedom, not try and tie them down to some sort of rigid system. It would be like trying to tell Hazard to play Sarri's brand of football, it just isn't going to happen, it would suffocate a player like that.

So the Arsenal double is still on, the final of course will be a one-off.

On looking at the league matches where they might drop points all I can come up with is West Ham who in the past have beaten Fergie's Man Utd when no-one else could though this time will also be trying to stay up.

It is looking like Arteta's year.

Given our defence with trev and gusto as the right side blanked PSG at the cwc I think Arsenal can do the same in the final.

Their last 3 league matches are a cake walk. The title is basically certain for them.

If Arsenal beat West Ham it's basically over.

Would not be surprised to see them win 0-5.

6 days a week mate, every week.

Strasbourg need to claw back a 1 goal defecit tonight to make the final of the Conference. Not looking too promising in the league so this matters for Blue Co. for both prize money and next years European involvement.

If things go badly for Blue Co both the Chels and Strasbourg wont be adding to the coffers via Europe ....oh dear what a shame nevermind.

Eghbali is at the Strasbourg game.

Trouble in the RM camp.

Villa 1-0. Finally capitalise.

It’s been all Villa in 1st half, Forest had no answers. Hopefully They’ll liven up abit in 2nd half, kinda boring watching such a one sided game.

We can take one of them off their hands, it’s the least we can do for them really.

Villa are proof that you’re never far away from being a good team with the right manager and players.

Nah mate. No statistical relationship.

That’s why they’ve kept Maresca and Rosenior…..Wait….

2-1 Villa. Forest have been massively disappointing. I think they peaked when they beat us 😂

They caught sh*thouseitis from us.

Damn. Villa do not deseve to be rewarded for throwing the Spurs match.

Barco looks like an even slower Enzo, if that's possible at all.

Forest were absolutely pathetic tonight. I hoped for a really tight, close game. They pretty much bent over and said, all yours baby.

Makes our plight even worse as even 6th is very difficult now with our Forest loss. They couldn’t even be bothered to finish 6th.

Hope the Strasbourg fans gave him an earful.

If nothing else us fans can at least expose him as the idiot he is everytime he is sitting with someone at a game. Bruise his ego.
