EPL | Watford v Arsenal | 27th of August at 15:00 (GMT)

[say yes]

It's so nice to have a good atmosphere about the club.

First time since we beat Man City last Christmas (and even then last season was mostly miserable).

 

[Bashii]

Bar the one bad pass, Holding has been solid again.

Not sure if it was him or Bellerin, but the flick on from their long throw was dodgy to say the least.

 

[Trilly]

Ramsey

13-14 Ramsey yes. Current Ramsey, Hell no.

 

[Plutarch]

Not as comfortable as it looked like it was going to be at half time. But I suppose away games in the premier league are never comfortable.

Now we're above Liverpool in the league, I'm pleased at that.

 

[raag]

Walcott did really well
Today. Unlucky to get a goal but should make a difference to his confidence

 

[arsmile]

first half was excellent obviously- I don't think the second was disastrous- we didn't look 100% fit and we weren't that ambitious- but they only scored because Ox switched off and left monreal 3 on 1 ... we were mostly professional defensively.

 

[SuperGoon]

Terrible 2nd half.

I wouldn't say it was terrible. Solid. We had the chances to make it a better win, but Walcott and Chamberlain decided they wanted to be like Messi.

 

[Yousif Arsenal]

Only seen the goals as travelling but Özil makes me so happy.

Sounds like we were good today?

At 1st half we were fantastic. The 2nd half we struggled

Ramsey

GOD Forbid.....

 

[Rimaal]

35 million too much for Mustafi, you say?? Not in the state we're in, and not for the quality he'll bring.
By god we're desperate. Thank god, we bought him.

 

[4R5Emaniac]

Good win, nice elements of the game and 3 goals. People are overreacting. Watford are a well prepared side and gave Chelski a game.

 

[BobP]

Such a **** game.

 

[skip spence]

Only seen the goals as travelling but Özil makes me so happy.

Sounds like we were good today?

Very good first half. A bit shaky in the 2nd. Özil and alexis a class apart.

 

[carlito'sway]

Santi isn't going to be able to give beyond 60 minutes this year. He wasn't exactly athletic to begin with.

He needs to be managed carefully, can't play twice a week. He is a major player for us.

 

[Xhaka Zulu]

Was expecting Arsenal to push on after being 3-0 ahead at HT, should have known better.

Good to win our first game.

 

[celestis]

I'm just worried that some of our players look unfit.

That's not a bad thing , sharp end of the season starts in Dec.

 

[MLK79]

Not too worried about the second half. Took our foot off the gas and we've still got some players not fully there physically. Not to mention, players getting used to each other in new positions.

 

[razörist]

35 million too much for Mustafi, you say?? Not in the state we're in, and not for the quality he'll bring.
By god we're desperate. Thank god, we bought him.

It's not the defence. It's how we can't keep away pressure from the defense. It's our tactics and subs.

 

[ferrarif50hunt]

Walcott MOTM. Fantastic today, deserved a goal and would have got one if Sanchez wasn't so stupid.

 

[blaze_of_glory]

Oh, Giroud never came on. Explains the lackluster second half.
