Agree with all except comment on Xhaka. I think he attempts to play the attacking position the best that he can, but it is not his strength. Regardless he is one of our top performers so far and that is attributed to his focus and dedication. There are a few other players who are performing below their capabilities, but he seldom does.Gabriel Jesus is magical. He makes us so much better attacking. This is going to be the signing of the season. He's everywhere on the pitch, he reminds me of Ronaldinho and Alexis. That first goal was a thing of beauty.
The second-best player in the match is for me between Zinchenko and Martinelli. Martinelli just gets it. Only 6 mil. What talent we have in our squad.
Special mentions, Saliba. After his own goal, he didn't put He's head down. He's only 21 he'll make more mistakes, but what a defender he's becoming. Wonderful reaction from the fans when he wins the ball back.
Xhaka haters, be quiet. His new role suits him perfectly. Since last season, he's playing further forward, and he's a better player. Goal and an assist today.
Six points, bring on the rest!!!
He was 100% a poacher before arriving at Arsenal, but started out as a winger when he got into Lyon's team.I wouldn't say Laca was a poacher.

Fecking hate Arsenal! Now their fans are all on the Flip part of their usual flip-flop cycle. Now they have Super Mik Arteta.
Not surprised we lost, we always do to them, but the score line could've been embarrassing, Brentford look on paper one of the weakest attacks but managed 2, now 4...very worrying.
Why do we always just roll over for Arsenal? It’s like we don’t even try. They’re not that special. They’re cvnts.
Stop giving them easy wins.
Yes arsenal are good currently, playing with confidence and they were clearly too good for us today. But it's the same mistakes over and over again.
Shows how far rodgers has dragged us down, pathetic. Finished above these 2 years ago.
Granit bloody Xhaka made to like Lampard in his prime today.
I’m now wondering whether it is worth selling Fofana at peak value and strengthening 2 or 3 other areas
we're more than capable of getting another point next weekend.
Time to sit back and watch Brentford beat Man Utd
This Arsenal side was a bit like Man city at times.
We will get better but I hope we don't use Amarty much.
The only positive I can take is its one day closer to him leaving
Today was a free hit and we were competitive against a team that will be top 4. Dropping the 2 points against Brentford and a bad result against Southampton are the ones that get a manager the sack so let's see how it goes next game.
I think this is the 12th time I have been to Arsenal away and have never even seen us get a draw.
Form The Foxes Talk
Didn’t see the game but that wasn’t a bad prediction. Will see it tomorrow.Can’t watch it, but got it down as a 3-0 easy win. Jesus 2, Martinelli 1.
Unbelievably frustrating there are no excuses to misplace a 10 yard pass under no pressureRamsdale should have saved that 2nd goal and Partey is too sloppy at times for a guy that talented
Glad he's been freed from Peps control freakeryGabriel Jesus is magical. He makes us so much better attacking. This is going to be the signing of the season. He's everywhere on the pitch, he reminds me of Ronaldinho and Alexis. That first goal was a thing of beauty.

Lol at the amount of COPIUM that manure fan is on, I think I'm going to enjoy this season a lot.
If Chelsea can crash and burn that will complete it for me.
We only added G.Jesus and our xg will go from 1.5-2.00 to 3.00
I'm not sure but when chance in box without big pressure the xg for it will be high. We also had few clear cut chances we should've scored from itHow much were our two goals coming from their mistakes? The header in particular must have been like 0.8 alone
