Premier League match discussion thread | 2014/15

This is ending 0-0, isn't it?

Two injuries and an own goal that shouldn't have counted because Fellaini was offside. Unlucky Arsenal.

As if Arsenal are being beaten by Man United 2-0 at home, omg

I only caught the first half, and Arsenal were all over United, wtf happened?

Worst United team in years, and Arsenal still can't even draw with them.

We couldn't even score against United with Mcnair and Blackett at the back for them.

This was our equivalent of Arsenal's 8-2 team. No Rafael, No Evans, no Jones, no Rojo, no Blind, Shaw injured after 5 minutes. Even if Arsenal pull this back to 2-2 it's a fucking astonishing failure to not beat this shambolic United team. Van Gaal has got his tactics absolutely spot on.

Great hit by Giroud.

Wow, some great players right there!

It's pretty much their starting back line.

What a fucking parody we've become. To think Wenger signed a 3 year contract a few months ago.

Just when I thought things couldn't have got worse, Giroud scores a consolation.

That was the cherry on the icing. A pointless burst of energy and attack from the team in the final few minutes to make an incredible comeback which never fails to fall short.

Just so predictable.

This is about as Arsenal as you can get. It's pretty mind boggling that we dominated United the same as they dominated us in the 8-2 yet we were a lick of paint away from losing 3-0  It's amazing how inept van Gaal and United are yet we are even worse

If it hadn't been for Sanchez carrying us then we'd be in a relegation dogfight.

We've had 3 games to beat the worst United team in a generation yet we pick up 1 point

This could be the season Arsenal finally finish 5th.  Not that Liverpool will bother to capitalise on that.

Well, if there's one good thing to come out of this match for us, it'll be the fans' reactions on AFTV.

It would be just so perfect. After finally winning a trophy, assembling the most expensive squad ever, up against the shittest United, Liverpool, Spurs and Everton in maybe a 10000 years and yet finally miss out.

Poor Alexis.

Exactly. Missing them means we have to pick players who aren't good enough to knock them out of our first team, just think of that.

Inept? Van Gaal got his tactics spot on today. Compensate for his appalling defence with extra bodies and two defensive midfielders and roasing you on the counterattack.

Does anyone remember how the Crystal Palace Vs. Liverpool match ended last season? Don't think Sky's coverage has mentioned it yet.

It bothers me a wee bit that they act like that was the match that killed the dream.  Anything to avoid blaming Gerrard.

What a fucking hit. 3-1 Palace.

Nobody bar Coutinho has done themselves anything resembling justice today.  He'll probably  be dropped for Henderson in midweek, though.

West Ham and Swansea are serious top 4 contenders.

Are they fuck, it'll be United, City, Arsenal and Chelsea, nobody else stands a realistic chance.

This is seriously the shittest PL ever. If Chelsea don't go unbeaten it will be a travesty.

You want Chelsea to go unbeaten?

I'm actually enjoying the Liverpool fuck-up. Not watching the team play of course, that's sleep inducing. But seeing the fans in panic mode, and funnier yet, the ones who try to spin everything positively is hilarious.

I actually know exactly what you mean.
