Arsenal

[The Fox]

Yeah it's legit, it's the same shirt Henry was pictured in a few months ago.

[carlito]

Brilliant! I have savage pecs.

[Mars]

It's real, saw it at a trade show earlier this month.

[toythatkills]

Nice, but those flayed out arm bits look a bit camp

You kept that quiet.

Yeah hope he does well there. He's a good player, just needs some regular games. His last loan was a bit of a disaster.

Puma kit announcement on atm.

edit: better cut down on the Piebury Corners, lads

I don't get why it's seductively peeling a trackie top off the shoulder, like it's some sort of horny mannequin performing a really sleazy and unsexy "come hither" style undressing.

It's called memory cloth. Regularly flexible, but put a current through it, the molecules realign and become rigid.

You don't need a current, all you need is Giroud.

Alleged Cup kit and away kit:

[The Fox]

France Football reporting Sagna is about to sign a new 3-year deal.

[Stagger Lee]

That's great news if it happens!

[hercules]

I hope so, Sagna has been in great form this season and is a rock for us.

[Stagger Lee]

It should give Jenkinson enough time to get up to standard too.

[The Fox]

I really thought he was going tbh, so it'll be great if it happens. He's been so solid this year after a couple of injury-hit, slightly iffy years.

[Silent Runner]

Great news. Just need Wenger, Rosicky and Vermalen to sign as well.

[g wings]

Wenger sounds like a done deal according to Comments from IG yesterday

[The Fox]

No way is Vermaelen signing a new contract. Wenger is just being nice publicly, he knows he's off in the summer. Fair play to Vermaelen though; he's acted very professionally in a situation that can't have been easy for him.

[The Fox]

Flamini Arteta axis of midfield shite returns, fml.

[Stagger Lee]

Fucking hell. We haven't turned up yet.

[Silent Runner]

Never a foul that led to the goal. Some fucking bullshit refereeing right there.

[toythatkills]

Can't say we don't deserve it though. The fuck is happening?

[carlito]

37% possession for the Arse did I just see?

THIS IS NOT THE SCRIPT.

[The Fox]

This is appalling. No idea what the plan is here.

[hercules]

We have been awful so far. No ball retention. Haven't turned up

[carlito]

Koscielny Pirouette in his own box.

#baller.

[SaintM]

It's not you. We've made many a team look ordinary in the first 45 mins of a match and every time it's always because they are playing terribly, rather than Southampton being good.

Still, it's usually a different story in the second half.

[Stagger Lee]

It's definitely us. We look like shit.

Edit: sorry that was really dismissive your lot are playing well.

[The Fox]

Nah don't mean to take away from Southampton but it is a bit of both. Lots of errors.

Midfield pairing has been woeful away against West Brom, Napoli, Man Utd. No surprise it's the same here, but we don't really have any options. Maybe move Cazorla to CM I guess.

edit: Giroud's hold up play is vastly overrated, gives it away so cheaply so often

[carlito]

Just a disconnection between defensive half of the team and the attacking half at the mo isn't it?

Southhampton marking well, so we need either Arteta or Flamini to beat a player and carry the ball to drag markers off their man and open up some passes.

Saints have to tire in the second half too.

AOC on for Flammers I reckon.

[The Fox]

We're playing far too narrow, absolutely suicidal against their pressing.

Koscielny bailing us out over and over.

[carlito]

What?
