20/09/17 | Arsenal 1-0 Doncaster Rovers | Carabao Cup

[Cripps]

I was at work tbh

Slightly more important

[starmandb]

I am waiting for Doncaster to score lol

Plymouth v Doncaster
Tickets available for 21 pound
A pound more expensive than the most expensive ticket for last nights arsenal v Doncaster game
Still
That doesn't fit the narrative of arsenal most expensive ticket in football does it?
But go pay your 21 pound and your wait may be over

[starmandb]

If Niles and Nelson are the future of this team then thank God Wenger is off in 2 years so the next manager can sell them off when he see's how duff they are.

I was at white hart lane in 1973 when a similar aged Liam Brady made his first start for the 1st team
The young chap looked like he had never been aquatinted with a football in the 2-0 defeat
Funny enough the crowd was about 3'000 less for that North London derby than it was for an early round of the league cup v a third tier club last night but you will still get the bollocks from the media about the amount of empty seats

[Trequartista]

Chambers was very solid and composed - was a mistake bringing him off at HT. It invited pressure and they targeted Da Silva time and time again and got a lot of joy raiding down our left-side. Lucky to hold out for the win in the end.

So what does that tell you when our 5 year former no1 choice striker can't even get a goal against fkin Doncaster all game?

This is why Giroud needed to be replaced.

Giroud won us 3 points against leicester what has lacazette done so far? Missing a Tap in against Chelsea and costing us 3 points your Memory is bad

It was not a tap in.
Its clear that you have never played football.

It is a tap in when you have an agenda.

your love Ozil has 0 goals 0 assists in 4 games.

at least Giroud did better than Ozil.

Oh right so Ozil is our striker as well as our defence? ah yes how silly of me, the way you talk is the whole team is a clone of Ozil's responsible for every aspect of an 11 man side.

Anyway I'm off because the trolls have come out to play from their caves.

indeed, shame the guy who called Lyon underdogs that won the league 7 times in a row came here.

BS221B - Who the cap fits - let them wear it

You wouldn't be getting touchy if it wasn't close to the truth

Haven't you got some more "facts" to be making up ??? Fake news purveyor.

[theHotHead]

I dont know if it's Ozil's absence or the 343 shape but we lack creativity in the final third.

One thing you can never accuse Ozil of is not being creative - its all he knows. The Ozil haters are stunned, their weak and pathetic arguments against Ozil show themselves up when Arsenal play Doncaster at home without Ozil and are accused of lacking creativity.

So what does that tell you when our 5 year former no1 choice striker can't even get a goal against fkin Doncaster all game?

This is why Giroud needed to be replaced.

Giroud won us 3 points against leicester what has lacazette done so far? Missing a Tap in against Chelsea and costing us 3 points your Memory is bad

Lacazette scored against Leicester and Bournemouth.

Wtf has Giroud done this season bar that goal? ....... fk all that's what.

No goals against Koln, Chelsea, Doncaster sweet fk all!!

All nice and good but at the end the points count and fact is Giroud won us those three points and lacazette has not convinced anyone yet Bar you. Giroud has also less playing time...i would not be too convinced in your case

true, but all the more reason he should have more energy and should be scoring against pubbers. giroud is a supersub, that's it.....he's not a starter.

and not scoring against this side today is awful. and yet you still defend him. unbelievable

If lacazette hadn't got the 1st goal v Leicester our 4 th goal wouldn't have been a winner

Sadly he got injured in the game hence why he came off at half time.

Some UserIDs have a weird fetish with hating on Giroud.

I'm convinced that Laca is better than Giroud. I like Giroud and he does great things for us and scores some amazing goals, but you don't need stats to see that Laca clearly gives us more versatility up front.

[GoonerAlexandre]

What bullshit including Chelsea in it? How long was Giroud on?

Lacazette is better, but ffs.

Bring back MesutOzil11

Yet you count Theos couple of minutes v Stoke and Leicester. Hypocrisy is strong
