PL | Arsenal v Crystal Palace | 1/1/17 | 4pm GMT

2 clean sheets in row! Love you sometimes Arsenal Happy new year gooners!

 

[Santi's Left Foot]

Our goal difference should have been boosted today. Good enough though

Damnit

Why do keepers have such wonderful games against us?

Ox could have done better though. He sort of hit it at the keeper.

 

[Vibra]

I totally forgot Flamini was playing

 

[Trilly]

He's bagged an assist for the opening goal, been instrumental in most of the chances we've created and generally worked like a man possessed.. again. MOTM? I dunno, but if you think he's had a mare, then you must have a special set of standards for players like Alexis. Which would be understandable I suppose, because he's just on another level completely.

The fan love you have for Alexis and Connor McGregor is a tad worrying.

 

[Sapient Hawk]

I hate seeing Arsenal fans leave early.

All the more frustrating that those of us who'd love to attend are denied for a variety of reasons (distance being the case for most I imagine). I don't care about the underground, stay behind to show your appreciation/ire, whichever is acceptable given the circumstances.

How long before "we're better without Özil"

didn't Jury posted that before half time?

I bet you've never said that before.

 

[Tir Na Nog]

Pep and Mourinho now both outside the top 4 despite spending the most money....

 

[crazyman]

Not going to lie, we looked much more dynamic in attack without Özil.

Careful, your obsession is showing. Pull up those pants, ffs.

HAPPY NEW YEAR GOONERS.

Great way to start the year with a strong performance, a win, a clean sheet and an absolutely fabulous goal by OG! Goal of the Year, in my book!

 

[rich 1990]

Perfect sort of game before playing two days later. Palace stink of ****.

 

[Trilly]

Therein lies the problem. We're one point better off than last season.

Constant little improvements but not enough to catch our rivals. You could argue we only finished second because all our rivals were underperforming.

 

[SA Gunner]

Ox could have done better though. He sort of hit it at the keeper.

What did you make of his run today? I know you are not his biggest fan

 

[Makingtrax]

Jeez that was hell of a performance even if the goals were limited to 2. Made Palace look like a Boy Scout team.

 

[reed]

Pep and Mourinho now both outside the top 4 despite spending the most money....

Judge them in May

How long before "we're better without Özil"

You're trying to snatch my lunch box today.

 

[CurryFlavoured]

So loose, like a 5 a side game.

 

[Jury]

Don't our players care about goal difference?

They were actually trying to score more. I know it might not have looked like it
