Greenlizard0 Weekend Football Thread ** spoilers ** [5th - 10th April 2019]

Garbage performance from Arsenal. At no point did they look like scoring and were fortunate to have only lost by 1 given the amount of chances Everton had. Arsenal's away form is going to cost them a CL spot.
 
That’s shocking stuff. I don’t know what’s happened today, it’s embarrassing. I just can’t see us making top 4. We cannot do jack **** away from home.
 
We seem a totally different team away. Shocking today.

Lost Socratis for the next 2 games also, need to hope Sp*rs and Chelsea don't capitalise on this.

Top 4 was always going to be hard but I think this puts into beyond us, even more so with the amount of away fixtures during the run in.

Hard to argue that was a clear and obvious goalscoring opportunity. He's out on the touchline with nearly half the pitch to cover.

I disagree. I think its a very obvious goal scoring opportunity, unless he trips over his own feet no one is stoping him from getting to the penalty box. Maybe he could have squared it for a tap in? we'll never know because he was fouled to make sure he couldn't.

It's the last defender purposefully taking down a player. If it wasn't a goal scoring oppurtunity why did he feel the need to trip him?

Being out on the touchline he's got to cut inside before he can get an attempt at goal and it leaves enough doubt in the refs mind that another Arsenal defender could have got back. Unless a player is running directly through on goal (and as we saw with Mane vs Leicester sometimes not even that's enough) then you're not getting a red card in situations that far from goal.
 
That was beyond ******* terrible. Arsenal are just absolutely garbage away from home. The fact we couldn’t even score a god damn goal says it all, quite hilarious that our away form is going to cost us the top 4.
When I saw the team sheet I was like WTF. That was a joke of a team and no wonder Everton beat us.

We should have buried Everton like we normally do, they aren’t Liverpool are they??
 
Great performance from Everton today. 3 back to back wins.....looking forward to being in the away end at Fulham on Saturday.

COYB.
