Pepe man of the match for me. Earned us a point.

We’d have lost if he hadn’t got himself sent off.

I kind of liked Tierney going after the Leeds player who dove after Pepe's headbut Alioski after the final whistle. Pepe was an idiot and deserved the sending off, but I liked the fire and someone calling a player on that kind of rolling around.

If I were an Arsenal fan, whoever that one of their players was who is buddies with Alioski with the arm around him who got angry at Tierney and pushed him away while the other teammates were pulling him away in his own interest - kind of player I wouldn't want on my team. Didn't see the numbers and don't know their team well enough to know him, big broad white guy with dark slicked hair - think it was Xhaka which makes sense as he's from same region and perhaps they are friends

Totally agree. It was Xhaka.

Realistically, his hands were at his side in a natural position and it was so close he had no time.

But really...nobody knows what a handball is anymore.

In positive news, apparently VVD has returned to light training this weekend.

Which means he might be The Bionic Man or perhaps even Robocop.

Keita injured again. He has been constantly injured since joining. Quality player, but simply can’t put a run of games together.

Leicester must have made some Faustian bargain to keep that one out.

Firmino deserved that one. He could have had a hat-trick tonight.

Seriously?! If he’s training already I want to see a drug test.

I remember reading Keane's book when he talked about his knee injury and Lee Sharpe having a similar one at the same time after he left United. Keane went on and on about the need to be patient and recover slowly with Sharpe visiting him one day when he was supposedly ahead of schedule and ahead of Keane in recovery.

Talks about how he noticed Sharpe getting up from the sofa wincing as he did and how his and Fergies's attitude to the injury and recovery was not to rush it in any way whatsoever and get it right.

Keane got a lot more mileage out of his recovered knee than Sharpe. These things need to be managed with care and caution. I get the value of VVD to the team but they've got to be careful they don't Owen or Sharpe him.

Light training is pretty normal for this stage of knee rehab, isn’t it? I’d still expect he’s out for another 6 months yet.

Yeah. Light training can mean a lot of things with a wide scope.

Fans back December 2nd

Max of 4000

Will depend on what tier the city is placed in, in terms of potential outbreak

So 4000, 2000, or 1000 depending on tier 1, 2 or 3

The next two rounds of PL fixtures make no sense whatsoever.

Both weeks the two clubs playing Tuesday night CL football are scheduled to play the following Sunday whist the two clubs playing Wednesday night games are slotted in for Saturday games?
