Happy for my man Christian Benteke scoring on his home debut. Had a good game. Bournemouth should have had something from it though.

btw who is your team mate?

[Mr. Charlie]

I'm a Chelsea supporter. When I lived in London I'd go to their matches. But they were poor and rubbish back then. Now they're rich and rubbish. Two losses and a draw so far this season. It's not promising.

Can't expect much from a third season Jose team.

The fact that we (Arsenal) haven't signed a striker or a passing DM this summer is thoroughly distressing. We are so close to being real contenders, but it's just not going to happen.

You guys canNOT let Man U get their hands on the trophy this year!

[Goofle]

Man Utd aren't going to do anything this year. Rubbish team.

West Ham has only contributed £15m towards the £272m conversion costs of the Olympic Stadium, with the taxpayer footing the rest of the bill. Considering the cost to the taxpayer, and the effect of this taxpayer subsidy on competition between clubs, a full public inquiry into the deal is needed.

It will cost taxpayers £2.5m per year for the upkeep of facilities there, for the next 99 years.

Every fan of every club should sign dis ting.

Taxpaying fans in the Midlands and the North paying for London to just be handed another super club .

Dunno if you're still about Mojo, but it doesn't look great for you lot at the moment?

WE SIGNED ADAMA TRAORE. Came onto the pitch last night before KO wearing a Villa scarf

Thoroughly embarrassing so far. I wouldn't have believed it was possible to implode any further, especially at the beginning of a season, because we rarely start well, but they found a way.

We've wanted a shuffle at centre half for a while now, with Brown and O'Shea getting older and becoming more and more of a frequent liability, and we got it. Unfortunately Coates and Kaboul have been made a mockery of in the first two matches, and van Aanholt has been truly shocking. We all knew he couldn't defend but Norwich just kept coming down that side and he couldn't cope whatsoever. You can't play like that against Norwich at home.

It's gonna be another long season. I'm confident we'll improve but it's too early to tell if we'll improve enough to escape again this year.

Decent point today though, stopped the rot. Next game should be easy

I think you'll go down fwiw.

Adama Traore is ridiculous, was watching his videos on Youtube all week and within about 5 minutes he does that. Built like a fucking ox as well. Blatantly gonna be back at Barca before his contract ends.

[Goofle]

Will probably replace Alves.
