Bah. We're just not good enough for this league. And the league is shit.
EDIT: Although we had chances. The second goal tells us where our biggest problem lies. We can't stay switched on. Alexander-Arnold's cracker, though. Oof. That could kill a pigeon or a small child.

Or a dog. You'd love that.
Was the NL always run off as quick? That June slate is mental.
No but there's the (winter) World Cup next year so they are struggling for time.
Nations league is a great format. Would’ve liked us to draw one of the Nordic countries, but our group should be pretty even and interesting.
Arteta on if Wilshere is good enough to play again in the Premier League:
“100% and if he has doubts I can tell him that.”
Will Wilshere play again for Arsenal?
“That’s a different story.”
lol brutal
Just the err ... one match today then.
Gateshead up to third with two games in hand, though.
Why do they have 20+ registered first team players and a reserve squad and the under 18s again. Ive played enough FM to know, these clubs have a bag-of-man to pick from.
It's a stupid question to be fair. He's obviously good enough, he's just made of tracing paper.Originally Posted by phonics
Why would Arsenal go back there when they are now focused on youth recruitment and presumably have the next option in that position identified? He could do a job for Brighton.
This has Arsenal 1 - 2 Leeds written all over it.
Gateshead beat Conference North leaders Brackley Town 2-0. Excellent.
Im confident, it isnt part of the sock design but why do so many players have holes in the back of their socks?
Their calf’s are massive so it releases the pressure.
Came so close to sticking Martinelli in the fantasy team this week, so you're welcome Arsenal fans.
Jonathan Wilson will never recover from Bielsa being lolled out of the Premier League.
No one has a clue when it comes to Bielsa discourse. You shouldn't judge him in the way you'd judge other managers. He's like Miles Davis. You can sign Cliff Richard to your record label and he'll sell 10x more records (rekkuhds), but it doesn't change the greatness of Miles Davis.
I'm sure Leeds have money to spend but he seems pretty tight-fisted. He likes what he likes but won't tell anyone what that is.
Odegaards been fantastic today.
I love Ange.
Just sitting back watching this Arsenal Leeds game. Soccer (probably all sport) really is so stupid if you stop and think about it too much. Probably best not to.
Yeah, especially when you factor in the amount of money involved for kicking a ball into a rectangle.
I'm a twit
Some millionaire rolling about after someone brushing against them, 4 others with outstretched arms berating the poorly paid man like it’s the worlds biggest injustice, all topped off with a load of old men in colourful tops and hats screaming at said 20-something year old like they despise him just because his colourful top is different.
Yet it all just works, so best to just glaze over and take it for what it is.
Because the tradition of hating the colourful tops was passed down from generation to generation. Back when they'd finish work, put on their colourful tops and gigantic shorts and launch into a two-footed challenge to defend their rail company's honour.
Supposedly the Leeds fans were racially abusing the Arsenal bench, I did wonder what the stuff with the goal celebrations and the ref intervening were about.
This post kinda reminded me this:
Malaysia v Indonesia in the final group game of the Suzuki Cup... winner goes through, loser goes home. Could get tasty.

Supposedly at least 1 more Chelsea player now has COVID, so they asked to postpone todays game at Wolves. The Premier League have told them to piss off and get on with it though.
Makes you wonder exactly how many have to be missing for games to be off or not.
Mourinho was right.
4 outfield players on the bench and no forward in the team.

I reckon Kepa could do a job on the left.
The state of VAR not even looking at that Ederson challenge.
No Thiago or Henderson today. If we're still missing Jones and Fabinho, this could be a very crap game.
Chelsea employing interesting tactics.
Milner and Morton imstead of Ox and Bobby? Vax has got to the nazi.
That Liverpool midfield
Jesus christ, that Kane foul
Get these 2 fucking clowns off the pitch when you're done penning your latest political column.
That's an England Captain bye if ever I've seen one. Horrendous challenge.
I was about to come here and say this is more of a Firmino game than a Jota game. That's come from nowhere really.
Standard of refereeing is piss poor here.
Hold on, that's a pen on Jota...
Can't argue with the entertainment value there. The save by Allison is so good on the reverse angle.
Should be about 6-1 down. Really stretching the risk v reward.
Milner and Morton struggling big time. I'd suggest the latter may be hooked at HT.
Battle of the Car Crash midfields, this.
Harry Kane is having a great game
They're inventing new ways not to score here.
And new ways to score.
Mental game.
Surely not.
It’s a clearer red than Kane’s
