Who would have thought starting all of our best players could be a good thing!

Don't worry, when we play Man U in a couple of weeks time, he will start Lacazette on the bench again

Still dumbfounded as to why he did that against City

West Brom have sacked manager Tony Pulis.

I think it's a shame because although his management style isn't particularly stylish, he was able to get average teams punching above their weight. To have managed both Stoke and West Brom in the Premier League for nearly 10 years and not be relegated is an amazing achievement. With the same talent at their disposal I doubt that Pep Guardiola, Jurgen Klopp, Mauricio Pochettino could've done that.

Totally agree, disgrace. He’s never been relegated in his time a manager at any club. With the season of even a third done you have to have a bit more faith.

Pochettino

Clement at Swansea
Moyes by January

I see Everton's Oumar Niasse is the first player to be suspended for Successful Deception of a Match Official after he dived and won a penalty in the game against Crystal Palace. Well played FA

Good start but with tech available these days it could and should have been dealt with when it happened which might have changed the result. I’m not sure Palace will be celebrating his suspension

So frustrating, can beat the best teams in the world like Borussia Dortmund and Real Madrid but can't beat shit sides like West Brom or Arsenal.

Dortmund are mid table in a poor German comp and Real are struggling in a two horse race and are currently third. The EPL is a pretty strong and even comp ATM as reflected by all 5 sides likely to top their CL groups. Any side in the EPL is more than capable of grinding out a point. Hell we even needed a wicked deflection from a corner to beat Brighton at OT

BD are still a force, 2nd best goal differwnce in the Bunderslagia, wouldn't lose at home to most EPL sides, nice 4 all draw with Schalke last game too!
I couldn't see Real drawing at home and losing 3-1 away to most EPL sides either.
And yes Man U were kissed on the dick with that deflection!
I'm just glad we didnt lose with Kane getting his 40th goal this year. Time just to concentrate on the CL, the EPL is just about over already, we're too far behind Man City already.

Dortmund wouldn’t finish top 10 in the EPL, the Bundersliga is in serious decline. Bayern going ok but Dortmund can’t even beat Apoel who are League 2 standard, Leipzig won’t get out of their weak group and the 3 German clubs in the Europa are bottom or close to in their groups. The tide has turned and the EPL is coming to the fore. Arsenal will probably win the Europa and should be 4 or 5 sides into the last 8 of the CL.

Arsenal topped the group fielding a B team with players playing out of position. I’m not sure though if wenger will change that going into the knockout phrase

To top it off, the panel can only adjudicate when an advantage is gained from the dive so Ayews terrible dive in the box on Friday night can’t be acted on because the ref didn’t give a penalty.
Piss weak by the ref for not even booking for it either.

Ha you wish. Clarets to sit proudly above both north London ‘giants’ come tea time Sunday.

I’m struggling to think of two bigger under achievers than Spurs and Arsenal considering the size of both clubs.

Your boys can give up the chase mate, the Clarets will pick up the baton and carry the fight.

FFS there must be an image on the net of Wenger sucking Masons dick because he paid him back this afternoon.
Says something when even Sky Sports turn on their love child
******* Joke

Hey you beat Burnley 1-0 from a gifted penalty. I think my point still stands
