I would say Haaland is the best striker I’ve ever seen. Not sure it’s even close.

He's a freak. Ridiculous. Never seen acceleration like that. Absolutely unplayable.

That’s what I was just saying. You can’t stop him. Lighting quick. Massive. Brilliant in the air. Superb finisher. You can plan all you like but if he turns up I can’t see anyone stopping him.

Sancho on the other hand is one of the biggest disappointments I can remember in a long time. Rubbish that lad. Utter rubbish. Waste of money.

Been thinking exactly that. Opposing sides can watch as many videos of him as they like but he's just unplayable.
You can't even kick him out of his stride. As close to a footballing 'irresistible force' as I've ever seen.

Feel like we have slightly derailed from the brilliance of Arsenal on this thread guys. :conf: :wink:

Well I am a happy gooner tonight. Spending Christmas 5 points clear of City at the top of the league is not what I thought would happen in August. Do I think we will win it? No. But I sure as heck am enjoying the ride with this team of young likeable players full of potential.

Very happy gooner again today. First time we have beaten Spurs away in a while, 8 points clear. Not getting carried away but can hardly believe it!

I don't watch much Premier league footy at all these days but I saw that match this afternoon. Such was Arsenals dominance in the 1st half, 3 or 4 nil wouldn't have flattered them. I so wish Partey's (?) shot had gone in rather than rattling the post. What a strike!

So excited by The Arsenal you posted twice?! ;) Was a cracking shot by Partey! He likes shooting from distance, usually misses but when they go in they are belters! Would have been one heck of a goal!

Some unsavoury scenes at the end, which nobody wants to see*

:lol: Richarlison is a idiot (to put it politely).

United up next. I just hope we keep injury free as City have way more strength in depth then we do which could be where we lose it.

I was more referring to the fan who ran down and booted Ramsdale in the back!

Some team Brighton though, tbf. One of the best performances I've seen in a long time.
