Watford are all over Arsenal right now.

Midfield is nonexistent for Arsenal defensively

by Hapless_Hans Sun Sep 15, 2019 4:49 pm

Quique Flores is such a good looking man

by CBarca Sun Sep 15, 2019 4:54 pm

Arsenal being up 1-0 now is a testament to how bad Watford is rn lol

With how both teams have played, a team with a little better quality hasn't conceded that goal and has scored on one of their attacks

Aubaaaaaaaaaaa

by Nishankly Sun Sep 15, 2019 4:55 pm

Arsenal score. School boy stuff from Watford. Play to the whistle and stop ball watching.

by CBarca Sun Sep 15, 2019 5:02 pm

Ceballos does some really, really stupid stuff near the edge of his own box. He needs to cut that out

Liverpool almost made him pay for it, Watford hasn't done here

by RealGunner Sun Sep 15, 2019 5:03 pm

AUBAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

2-0

by CBarca Sun Sep 15, 2019 5:04 pm

Pepe

A lot of stuff going on in that one minute of Lexus Stoppage Time

I've watched almost all of Arsenal's games so far and Pepe looks like he has the ability...and it's only been 5 games, but I haven't been impressed with him at all so far.

Good ability on the ball, pacey, I've said before and I'll maintain it that I think he will come good eventually, but he's struggling atm. I haven't seen him be very effective at all in any of these games.

Anyway, one of the worst halves of football I've seen this year tbh, rivaled perhaps only by Man U vs Chelsea 1st half. Watford are dreadful, Arsenal are barely better but have enough quality for one or two decent moments and that's all they needed.

Unless Watford get one back, it's gonna be a poor second half too

by Hapless_Hans Sun Sep 15, 2019 5:23 pm

The good news for Arsenal is that Pepe's output can only get massively better

and probably will, as he looks like a great, idiosyncratically spectacular dribbler

by Nishankly Sun Sep 15, 2019 5:26 pm

Called Pepe out before the season started, I have seen him live in France. He is weird AF. Dribbling is probably the best in the league but everything else is so bad that its massively frustrating. Not to mention 50% of his goals come from Penalties which is again weird coz he seems shit at passing or shooting since he has bad composure.

by RealGunner Sun Sep 15, 2019 5:26 pm

20 - There were 20 passes in the build-up to Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang's second goal for Arsenal against Watford - the longest passing sequence leading to a goal in the 2019-20 Premier League campaign so far. Rhythmic. pic.twitter.com/5yPy0uPmEy

Just hoping main men Auba and Laca aren't sacrificed for this rich man's Adama Traore

I only watched a couple of matches from him last season, but he has a ton of potential, from what I can tell. Yes, his composure is definitely poor, but if he can improve on that, I think he can become a top, top player. As for ligue 1 dribblers, I believe Newcastle's Allan Saint Maximin was quite dominant in that regard last season.

Pepe's gonna be a 90m flop Proud

his type are a dime a dozen

telling that Daniel James looks 5x the player tbh

by Nishankly Sun Sep 15, 2019 5:37 pm

Define flop at this cost?

Would 10 goals 10 assists be enough? I think he should reach this target.

You've been whining about the transfer of Daniel James since before you even saw him perform, though hmm

by Mr Nick09 Sun Sep 15, 2019 5:40 pm

Pepe is transitioning from a team which was playing very differently from Arsenal and was doing everything to set him up in attack to a team where he has to fit in. You will eat crows when after a couple of months he has adapted and looks great. Bernardo Silva took a full season to get used to PL football lol, no one cares about that now

by Firenze Sun Sep 15, 2019 5:41 pm

for an 80m winger? you tell me

by CBarca Sun Sep 15, 2019 5:42 pm

Wow.

How many times from Arsenal and this time it's in.

by CBarca Sun Sep 15, 2019 5:43 pm

Bernardo Silva didn't take a season lol
