>Mesut Ozil and Sead Kolasinac are not in Arsenal's squad for Sunday's Premier League game at Newcastle because of "further security incidents".
>The pair were involved in a carjacking attempt by an armed gang in north-west London a fortnight ago. Arsenal say they are liaising with police and "providing the players and their families with ongoing support". "The welfare of our players and their families is always a top priority," the club added. "We have taken this decision following discussion with the players and their representatives. "We look forward to welcoming the players back to the squad as soon as possible."
>Ozil and Kolasinac were left out of a friendly against Lyon following the attempted carjacking, but both featured in the final pre-season game against Barcelona on Sunday. The latest incidents are being investigated by police. After the failed carjacking attempt, Kolasinac posted a picture of himself and Ozil on social media and added: "Think we're fine." In a statement, the Metropolitan Police said it was "in contact with Arsenal and will investigate any offences reported appropriately".

Jaxon Howard
Anyway, this is the team I assume Arselel will play tomorrow. Can anybody help me out? I have no idea who their FW's are. Just to mention; Pepe, Lacazette and Auba are all injured. Pepe and Auba are being assessed but not confirmed. Bellerin and Holding are injured for several more months. Tierney is injured until January (he was due back recently but got delayed by another 2 months, so I'm just assuming it'll happen again).
Other than that....
what? the dude literally posted an image of them playing a game in the kit, that is literally the definition of a real kit, nobody ever said that would be their homekit for th enew season, only that it was a real kit that they played in, which it is, they got punished for it and they played in it, you don't get punished for making a mock up image or a joke shirt, you only get punished if you put the kit on and play a game in it... which they did, making it a real kit.

I didn't talk about Spurs. Newcastle unironically have one of the best strikers in the league in Joelinton. But every single new signing Arsenal got is either injured or loaned out. They lost several depth players and are planning to sell two others. Who are Arsenal's strikers with Pepe, Laca and Auba injured?

>The new configuration will feature 32 teams in four eight-club leagues. How they will be chosen is still yet to be decided. It may be on European pedigree or domestic performance in 2023-24 or a combination of both. So far so reasonable.

Nope, they are. Ceballos got a foot injury. Luiz isn't fit. Auba isn't either.

It's either arsenal win or I get to enjoy some amazing troopz and DT rants. Either way I lose nothing as a semi-neutral
Robert Scott
AFTV is the gayest fucking shit. Its existence is an abomination. Most fan TV is. Either way, Arsenal won't be playing any of their new signings, Laca and Auba are not fit and are at risk of not playing/injured. Holding, Bellerin and Mavrapanos are injured. Kolasniac and Ozil won't play. The only FW's in Arsenals team are martinelli and nelson, both wingers/attacking mids, not strikers. It'll be hilariously bad.

Cameron Perez
everytime I watch EPL it reminds me of how stupid it is for tens of millions to be spent on a bunch of idiots kicking a ball around
So it'll be 5-3. I think only City scored more goals than Liverpool last year. It went City, Liverpool, Arse in goals scored. Therefore, based on this (and by order, Liverpool had like 20 more than Arse) Liverpool ahve the firepower to knock through any team. Only City and MAYBE Arse should they be even partially worried about at outscoring them. The former has a decent defence, the latter is so bad I wouldn't be surprised if Liverpool or City hit double digits against them.
In short, Liverpool aren't going to struggle because of it. The GD it'll create isn't a worry particularly either.

It's awkward. Your boss feels really bad for firing someone he has made friends with over the past few months, and just mumbles uncomfortably that they're terminating your employment and you have to leave. The first time it happened to me, it was such a crooked company that the boss let me stay till the end of the week and we had a weird handshake and then I just left. I think the company was raided by police a couple of weeks later, so I might have dodged a bullet there.
The second time it happened, the company had got a new CEO who wanted to make his mark on the business, so he went around promising loads of new shit. That time, we had about 20 IT guys and we only needed five or six, so I got called into a meeting room for a conference call where they told me I had to get out. I think the boss had been instructed to fire all his staff, because he was much too sound a guy to fire someone over the phone, and yet that's what he did, and his boss was also on the call, obviously watching how he did it. That was a really nice job, so I was less happy about that one.
>Spurs won Well, Arselel will lose tomorrow and they'll struggle to make Top 10.

Leicester v Wolves. Newcastle v Arsenal. Man Utd v Chelsea.
Remember how promising everything looked about 8-9 years ago?
Steve Bruce was manager, Jordan Henderson was their "young gun", Asamoah Gyan was their main man doing a good job up front, they beat the reigning champions Chelsea 0-3 at Stamford Bridge. Everything was looking so promising back then.
Was at the spyrs game lads right next to the AV stands. They were fucking us off and kept slagging one of our lads by saying he had a man city flag and trying to give him 20 quid (too far away to know the details though). Was amazing the comeback we had. COME ON SPUDS. threw awaymy ticket by accident but cd show u my dads ticket but dont wna coz have nothing to say to the lad. Pic is against inter but im one of the lucky ones with both the time and money to see every spurs game. also saw some americans. hate the faggots.
I drink at every game i go to. so what? Just came back from out.

there were pissed lads at the game.I saw a man vomit onto the floor on a fucking busstop. at 7pm. And you chastising mw for being pissed at 1am on saturday.You need to get out.
Just giving a memoir account abd thought you might wanna pic but lost my ticket so showed a previous pic. Just saying great game and was sat for first and maybe only time in my life directly next to the away fans literally last seat. I was face to face with the fucking cunts. They were so loud for like an hour and fucking slagging us off till we scored so they bowed their heads and submitted. almost some fights brokw out. the old boys were slagging em off then the av fans tried to jump the barriers but stewards stopped em.

It is, because they fell asleep and that's not something Pep for example would ever stand. Suarez, Cuntinho, Alba, Dumbele all missing easy goals that Messi served on a platter Wish Messi would join another club who isn't being run into the ground so that team can fuck off
Cameron Edwards
Managers are generally irrelevant, you can swap them and nothing really changes. See all the midtable and bottom teams switching around their managers.
Landon Peterson
that's why they're midtable and bottom teams
Christopher Brooks
No, they are midtable and bottom teams because they can't afford to pay the same wages that richer teams can. FFP was also introduced to make it harder to climb the ladder, together with how teams are selected for televised games.
Isaac Phillips
It's more about not having a bad manager than about having a great manager Also managers help attract good players to the club and they have a say in long term shape for them
>“My Dad explained we text friends the score. The man said if we continued to do so we’d be ejected from the ground."

I saw a thing about that on TV a few days ago. It's called courtsiding when they do it in tennis. The aim is to report a result before it gets passed to the betting companies, so you can bet on a literal sure thing a few seconds before they know it happened and make money. No way in hell would you be able to do it via text message, though.

What does that add to the viewing experience? How is that enjoyable? How is seeing a 1998 graphic test demo of 'how games may look in 2000' something that makes me enjoy the program more? Did they forget to spend their production budget? Is the spare money that Gary Linkekar getting less pay end up paying for? I mean he is a based equality anti-racist liberal, so he would surely have taken a pay cut.

Like one of the comments says, what's wrong with an actual set? The old setup was far better.
If the set ended up showing graphics of movement and positions of where the players were to highlight their movement or defensive issues or positioning or 'what they should have done' style thing, fine. But if it's meant to be 'atmospheric' then it is just gash. I mean it is just a greenscreen, which won't be too expensive and it's a terrible graphic model so it won't have cost much. This screams of 'we had it spare and we have to use it somewhere'.

Wolves have a lot of interesting players like Dendoncker and Jota.

So do Newcastle, but they're not playing them. Joelinton is, for me, world class but needs better support.

And he did sweet fuck all. Why do you even like him? Arsenal were playing like they were in a cup final. Their same issues appeared. Losing the ball in their half, losing the ball during attacks, sulking when the pass didn't go off, not playing to the whilst when it's clearly not been given and staying on the ground, unable to pass through deep defences, no flair, positivity or anything. Defence a shambles.
I maintain they won't get Top 6 because of this but perhaps seeing them with their '''''best''''' team will change my mind. If you can only scrape 1-0 against Newcastle, even with your best striker and record fee FW on the pitch, then, well... you're fucked. Furthermore, Martinelli's first touch as an Arsenal player (senior debut) was to give the ball away. Yeah he's the solution kek.
Also I am aware you were only talking about Pepe but rant time.
Nolan Ortiz
I'm exited to see him play lad. I't not like I follow über eats closely

>At Liverpool Magistrates' Court, he admitted racially/religiously aggravated intentional harassment. This is the key, lads. Never ever admit if you've been done for 'hate speech', if you resist to admit they have to PROVE you intended to cause offence, which takes time and money, something the courts don't want. If you do it and admit they give you a fine. They don't want to take it to court and the cost of it. Don't speak to anybody without a lawyer etc etc. I'm not supporting his shit but every time somebody is 'done' for hate speech it is because they admit it.

for me, it's respecting human rights to allow people to say what they want without governmental punishment; something the USA holds to such a degree they made 'hate speech' laws illegal and unconstitutional. weird huh? >The More Corrupt the State, the More Numerous the Laws
In that regard, yes. Civil liberties are key. The only saving grace is this country doesn't (yet) have a armed police force. It does, however, stamp on peoples ability to voice opinions as every day something will 'offend' somebody. I get offended seeing shit like Love Island on TV; I just don't watch it. I get offended being told it's OK to be fat by adverts, then the very next one is about losing weight. I get offended by history being changed to match up with a 'perfect' world. For example, there is an advert on Channel 4 telling me that it is wrong to believe that heterosexuality is the default. I don't care who you want to fuck, I do care being told that small % of the human population are vastly more numerous than they are AND THEN being punished if I dare say this in a public forum.
If you don't get the irony over the fact the UK arrests people for authoritarian comments online and punishing them for authoritarianism, then you're beyond hope. It's nice to pretend this country is perfect and fair, but it truly isn't. It doesn't matter what I say since I cannot stop it and neither can you (not that you apparently do). Apathy is the motto of day to day life, pretend you don't care, pretend it doesn't matter, ignore the slip into a political situation that governments claim to despise and hate but are doing the exact same fucking shit.
1984 was suppose to be a warning; not a fucking guidebook.

Vast majority of the population but nothing happens about it. There is no protests, no fighting back. People turn on the footie, down a can of Carling, eat a chicken tikka and wonder if Ngubu will score a goal or not.

If somebody goes 'fuck off faggot' to you, you might feel hurt, but you can say 'fuck off cunt' back. Nothing HAPPENS if people say something horrible to you. I don't think people should insult others for being different, I don't want people to either, but people should be able to do so and people should be encouraged to be pleasant and kind to others through social work rather than threatening to send them to prison. You know, like it happens in USA. If the UK announced Human Rights no longer applied here, I wouldn't care, but there is no specific sub-clause going 'unless it offends people'. It says that the government has no right to punish people over what they say. That happens. Therefore it does not exist here. Neither does freedom of expression (you can't create certain things, various porn fetishes are banned etc etc), access to the internet is a human right and the UK shuts down 'troublesome' sites despite research stating the issue they cite is wrong with them is false.
If you don't understand the problem and where it leads, I can't help.

You know by replying to him like that you are just admitting defeat, right?
I think as a general rule we're being massively underestimated but not going to stick me neck out and say we're going to stay up just yet. Think we will be competitive in the relegation battle though, and probably playing the best football in the basement to the ire of everyone who still for whatever reason thinks we're a hoofball team of thugs.
Isaac Gonzalez
>to the ire of everyone who still for whatever reason thinks we're a hoofball team of thugs They don't understand Wilder's achievements, that's why.

not him but you're a fucking retard, he's a twat for bringing it in here but this has nothing to do with that, also, funny, you're the one using racial slurs, he's said nothing of the sort.
Daniel James is a white Ngubu. What do we call those types of players?
Matthew Robinson
Liverpool is not england so who cares?
Ryan Hughes
Even as a neutral I have to say I fucking love Sharp. Elite bagsman. Constantly dabbing on doubters. Little ball of muscle. Amazing awareness and positioning. Top shithousing. Always in the right spot. Now scored at every level of the professional game and doing it for his boyhood club. Most prolific striker in the English game this century.

My bet would be Salah. Can see Sterling being up there though if Pep sticks with Mahrez Jesus Sterling. They looked so fluid yesterday it was amazing
