Teamsheets MUST be in by 3pm on Game Day
BONANZA DETAILS COMING SOON
At least he tried to mix it up an bit and to be fair, they lead early but through the game there was only team likely to win and that was us. We finally got the second which had we not I would've been fuming and it would've seen us out the title picture.
We can only keep going, keep plugging away and try and continue getting the wins where we can to catch, but a good day for us. Next one coming.
A very topsy turvy game and for much of it we was two goals behind and chasing the opposition. It was also a very open game as the scoreline suggests with the drama coming late on as we scored three goals in the final eleven minutes to dramatically turn it around. Tough to take for the opposition but deserved from our point of view.
A double header in the league for Arsenal as they played both Sheffield sides and got maximum points for their efforts. With United sitting in the bottom three ahead of kick off, the message would have surely been that anything else but three points would have been poor for Arsenal as they look to concentrate on the domestic side of things now following their exit from the Champions league.
A 5-2 win though will surely please the Manager with goals coming from hattrick hero Chiesa and a goal a piece from Correa and Pedri, but the big thing being that Arsenal had two first team players out for this but they managed to get the job done well.
The gaffer spoke after the game ;
" The season now for us is simple, get to the end of it, get players their minutes and try and keep the pressure up on the teams around us. Look at that table down to seventh, nobody is giving much away right now so we need to stay focused and now allow any slip ups ".
The Manager refused to comment on rumours surrounding his future at the club with some head members of the game rumoured to have been informed that he intends to step away from the game and as such, the on off sale of Midfielder Pepe could be halted.
