If Kroenke weren't Arsenal's owner I would say this is definitely Wenger's last year. But Kroenke loves him some mediocrity, so we'll see.

Big Sam needs to call a timeout.

One was offside and one was a total fluke. That and the cringeworthy celebration the week after should disqualify it! I don't know, I'm no fan of Chelsea, but honestly it was a 1 on 5 and he made them look awful.

Hope they get relegated. They fired Mike Phelan, too, so #### them.
Bet you love you some Hull now.

not really. I mean, seeing Liverpool lose is always fun, but for United it's going to be groundhog day tomorrow - at least two top teams lose and they can gain a lot of ground with a win, so of course they'll crap the bed again.

to be fair, you don't exactly have to make Coquelin look awful. He can do that on his own.

Hull and Sunderland winning makes it six teams within two points of relegation. The relegation battle is gonna be more fun than the top four battle it seems.

Well 1 win in 10 and I think they've only scored against Plymouth Argyle this year? I guess its not their year!

they've scored in every league game in 2017 actually (well, apart from today obviously). They just couldn't win. 2-2 at Sunderland, 1-1 at United, 2-3 vs Swansea, 1-1 vs Chelsea and now 0-2 at Hull. Really bad streak, and now they can't even blame the Africa Cup because they got their saviour back last week.

Liverpool sure dominated possession, but didn't do a heck of a lot turning that possession into dangerous chances.

I guess I got carried away and too excited to watch them fail.

Another glorious day for Russian oligarchs! I was actually up at 5:20 today and got to enjoy that. If Costa wasn't so terrible with the ball, it would have been 5 or 6.

The Hammers are doing alright in the post-Payet era so far.

I like ArsenalFanTV. Partly for the entertainment factor of some of the characters although TY's unreserved support for Wenger is a tad tiresome but also gives a decent insight into the on the street general morale of the club. Fans starting to squabble amongst themselves.

Wenger out starting to gather steam again, a bit earlier from last year. Problem IMO is higher up as the fella says. Board accepts mediocity.

Pretty dejected bunch of fans just looking for change.

And Bludfam

03:10 sums up where they are at regarding what they need.

NSFW!

^ after some games it's better than others! After Watford it was great for example. The 'blud' 'fam' guy just butchers the English language and I find him the hardest to listen to. I did like Paddy Power taking a shot at him though. I mostly feel bad for Claude. Poor guy is just a die hard and he seems somewhat rational, choice of teams aside.

So does Aguero. Last sequence of Jesus scoring and Aguero missing a sitter feels like an omen for their futures with City.
