No. We were never going to get anything from Chelsea and City who are so far beyond us and most of the rest of the league. We have been even more shite than expected which is a worry. But we had a similar thing last year and ended up making it to the heady heights of 8th.
Just hope maybe this is enough to get rid of Arteta.

There's no way in the world they will get relegated.
How long Arteta stays is an unknown.

I’ve seen much better teams relegated. Plenty of time to fix it, but they are in very bad shape indeed.

Arteta will be gone sooner rather than later anyway I think. If they carried on with him I genuinely think they'd be in danger of going down this time around but I think they will claw back into mid-table under a new manager bounce. The attitude under him is absolutely abysmal.

2011 at least we had a couple of goals…

I just look at the talent in the team ( and they have a few injuries today) compared to the tiny budgets of Norwich, Watford, Burnley, Leeds etc and it's insane. One serious injury for any of those teams and there's no one to step in.
Arsenal will get enough points for a mid table spot.

Not if Ronaldo plays against those frauds in defence. He'll have a field day.

I'd fancy Martial to score a couple against that rabble ffs.

Oooooh a pen to Norwich just before half time.
Nabbing any points from our first four games would be a result.

Also Buendia's goal against Brentford was class.
Arsenal missed out there, he's a beast.

Rough on Newcastle that, though Saints likely deserved the point. Genuinely thought the boy had ever-so-slightly nudged the ball first, but could have just been the camera angle I guess.

Brentford were very physical today. Draw a fair result. Need our injured players back.

Gray is looking like the bargain of the season so far. 1.5 million.

Think Chelsea will edge this. That side is pretty fucking good.

Yikes. Did hit his hand; still seems so harsh to get the red as well.

Yeah a pen is fair. Red card is harsh.

Think a penalty and the defender getting the benefit of the doubt us fair

Missed most of the first half. But tuned in in time for that delightful end to the half.
Whilst I kind of agree that a pen and sending off is harsh, he did stop a clear goal with his arm to the side swinging down. Ref has seen it and applied the rules.
I guess we are lucky that it didn't just go in and so Chelsea are also a man down.

At first I thought it was harsh but that hand movement was blatant.
Chelsea quickly lost their shit though

I think the little flick of his hand at the end is the bit that did it.

Yeah, watching it again, it looks like the second motion of the arm is what pushes it into 'deliberately stopping goal scoring opportunity'.
Ah well. Should still be a decent second half; thought Chelsea were the better team up until then.
