To be honest ridiculous that by next week United will be playing catch up. The league should have started next week. We shouldn’t be penalised for going far in Europe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Arsenal looked impressive [after moving to three in defence].<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It looks like Mikel Arteta has a formula that works for his players and they look comfortable doing it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
They look soild and tough to beat, which are words we haven’t often used about Arsenal for a while now – and that’s why he’s sticking with it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
As an arsenal fan I’m glad mitrovic is on bench. sort of. He’s good in the air and physical and it’s well known our defence usually struggle. I’d be a lot more worried if he had started. That said, I needed him playing for my bet<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Neil Moriarty:<\/strong>\u00a0Here we go, me and every other Gooner thinking we know a better line up than Arteta, as we did Wenger and Emery before him<\/p>\n\n\n\n “We have a special situation in goal. The transfer market is open. We know rumours [about Emiliano Martinez leaving]. We made the decision to play Bernd today.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n On starting Gabriel: “Everyone says we have a lot of centre-backs. But we have a lot of issues in recent weeks. He needs to start today. He’s been preparing really well. Hopefully he will be fine.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n On Willian: “We play slightly differently to Chelsea. He\u2019s a tremendous player, high quality, knows the league really well, so hopefully he can start performing today.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n You can imagine what it would have been like for the fans of these [promoted] clubs. Playing at Elland Road, Fulham and West Brom – they’ll miss the fans there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n As a player, you feed off what the fans are giving you from the touchline and the terraces and they’re not going to have that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n There’s no doubt about it that the smaller clubs will be at a bit of disadvantage at home.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" To be honest ridiculous that by next week United will be playing catch up.
