Europa League Chaos Together With Stamford Yoke Surprise

Passion, wishing as well as belief. The Gunners are constantly criticised for lacking these qualities. We finally induce got a utilisation instrumentalist that shows this variety of spirit as well as more. His holler is Sead Kolasinac. 

Arsenal 3-1 Cologne (UEL)

Prior to the jibe at that topographic point were rumours that 20,000 raving Germans were on their agency to the Emirates. On Th nighttime the rumours were confirmed to last true. The boot off of Arsenal's kickoff Europa League jibe inward nearly twenty years was delayed past times an sixty minutes due to "crowd problems". The employment of course of education existence that at that topographic point were alone meant to last 3000 away fans. It was quite remarkable, peradventure fifty-fifty admirable, to run across the lengths to a greater extent than or less of the Cologne fans went to back upwards their team. Many were dressed every bit Arsenal fans, as well as at that topographic point was a tweet showing i had changed their telephone wallpaper to our badge. Amazing. 

However, they cannot last applauded. H5N1 minority of the fans attacked stewards as well as police pull officers, knocking downward gates as well as marching through the streets of London every bit they went. For a pocket-size I holler back this sense would induce got been terrifying.


Our kickoff Europa League grouping game was delayed past times an hour
due to crowd problems

So afterward all that build-up, Arsenal kicked off at 9pm, promptly going 1-0 downward simply ix minutes in. Cordoba lobbed Ospina from twoscore yards out. Typical. And that's how it would remain until one-half time. 

Kolasinac was brought on for Holding afterward the intermission as well as the Serbian tank made an instant touching alongside a smashing volley. I honey this man. The issue energy as well as ability Sead shows were just what made me honey Alexis Sanchez. Maybe the Chilean doesn't wishing to play for us anymore, but he even so has immense skill. He gave us a 2-1 Pb alongside a stunning curler from exterior the box whilst running towards his ain goal. It was a fiddling reminder of what nosotros volition immature lady side past times side summertime when he leaves (Yes, when). 

Hector Bellerin made it 3 inward the 81st minute, sealing the win for the Gunners. Let's last honest, anything else would induce got been an embarrassment. I can't nation I'm overly enthusiastic that we're operate past times of our Europa League group, but I approximate it's something. In our side past times side game I would similar to run across Reiss Nelson start; he deserves an opportunity. 

Chelsea 0-0 Arsenal (EPL)

We mightiness induce got won on Thursday, but the focus was all on our Lord's Day match. Chelsea at Stamford Bridge. We had lost our finally v visits to the Blues' ground. I, along alongside most Gooners, wasn't confident. Last calendar week I predicted a thumping loss similar to our 6-0 defeat a few seasons ago. 

Arsenal proved everyone wrong. Shockingly, nosotros were the improve side as well as arguably deserved a win. However, a 0-0 line at The Bridge is even so a keen result. We are the kickoff always side that induce got prevented Antonio Conte's Chelsea from scoring at home. Defensively, nosotros were solid. Mustafi played actually well, as well as it looked similar our defenders had been told what to create for once. They had a game plan. This is the 3rd fourth dimension inward 2017 that we've played good against the Blues, as well as I'd similar us to brand a habit of it. 


Arsenal were defensively audio at Stamford Bridge for the kickoff fourth dimension inward many seasons

Just before one-half fourth dimension Aaron Ramsey dribbled good into the box as well as hitting the post. I won't nation anything almost Lacazette's shot, other than: exhibit us why you're worth £50 million. Ramsey had a real proficient game, as well as I liked the await of the Xhaka-Ramsey midfield partnership. The affair is, tin the Welshman as well as the squad cash inward one's chips along it? We played fantastically versus Chelsea finally twelvemonth inward our 3-0 win at home, yet await how that flavor turned out...

David Luiz got sent off inward the 87th minute, pregnant it had real fiddling touching on the game. If it had happened 10 minutes earlier, as well as then I holler back Arsenal would induce got grabbed a win. His lunge on Kolasinac was i of pure frustration, as well as he should serve a lengthy ban for it. There's no excuse for losing your caput similar that as well as we're lucky Sead didn't intermission his leg. But you lot can't wound our left back, he's a machine. He was straight off dorsum upwards contestation alongside the ophidian Cesc. Did I advert I honey him?

Overall, I'll induce got a point. It was a lot improve than our finally big away game (Anfield, 4-0, plenty said) as well as I holler back nosotros tin laid upwards on it. We were playing without Mesut Ozil (injured) as well as Alexis Sanchez (sulking) for most of the game, so peradventure nosotros don't involve them every bit much every bit is made out. Arsenal induce got 2 decent matches at abode inward the side past times side 2 weeks, playing West Brom as well as then Brighton. If nosotros win both, as well as then our seat inward the league mightiness begin to await a fleck to a greater extent than respectable. On Midweek nosotros play Doncaster inward the Carabao Cup. COME ON YOU GUNNERS!
