🚨 Declan Rice on criticism to Arsenal style of play: β€œSince I've been at Arsenal there is noise every week. That's what comes with playing for Arsenal”. β€œPeople are going to or not like parts of your game. Just focus on ourselves”. β€œMain thing is winning”, told Sky Sports.

Guessand is such an awesome player, underrated bit of physicality there to win the ball back for Palace.

Even with my non-Arsenal fan thinking cap on, I think these are some pretty terrible decisions

Enjoying mafia movies doesn’t make me a killer. So be wary of the state using rap music to prove murder | Shami Chakrabarti UK prosecutors are recklessly deploying art against young men in court. That’s why I’m taking parliamentary action to curb it, says lawyer and Labour peer Shami Chakrabarti

If you'd told me back in August that there'd be a Szoboszlai free-kick this season to make me feel more than the one then made me feel, but in a good way, it would've made defeat in August a lot easier to live with.

Probably thought he wanted less men in the wall so he could see it all the way and backed himself to react.

Problem is that Szoboszlai can strike a ball in such a way that goalkeepers simply can’t react in time.

I feel like my love of Evann Guessand has been vindicated with that assist on his Palace debut.

Fancied him for Brentford or United back in June - just missed out on mentioning the other team that likes a back three in the league…

Interesting how there seems to be such a massive increase in promoting from within across sports.

For me this is just a byproduct of their midfield personnel and a summer window that didn’t address their shortcomings there.

I like what Reijnders and Cherki can do offensively, but they lack the ability to shut up shop and dominate teams away from home.

Not only is this painful to read because of how easy his quality was to see at the time, but it’s also a damning indictment on Edu as a sporting figure.

We really did have terrible luck with our hiring post-Wenger until Berta.
