Anyone else having the audio on the streams affected?

Kind of forgot about that era. Different squad today and a lot more positive. But still wouldn't be surprised to see us concede 3.
Did any of our starters today play in those 5 matches? Only possible one is Struyjk.

Please don't make me have to go back there Lord to follow my team, please.

I just said exactly the same thing to my missus….. If we can’t enjoy days like this we may as well get relegated and go back to playing Preston & Oxford in the 12.30 ko’s

Probably not. It was like 50 years ago.

Yeah, AJS, it does feel like every Arsenal player is some £50m asset, and this summer backs it up—Arsenal spent about £247 million, brought in just over £10 million, so their net spend is roughly £237 million. We've spent just under £100 million with a net spend around £85 million. That’s basically three times the outlay, which tells you everything about the different worlds we’re operating in.
