I think people are understandably frustrated with a bad run combined with a great start perhaps getting hopes up a bit too high. I’m always hopeful, never expectant.

If we turn up with fire in our bellies we have the quality to give them a game, no question in my mind. So there is always hope.
Exactly

And its the hope that gets you 🙄

we're going to win 2-1 anyway

Sold my tickets on the exchange after the Brentford game as I just felt I needed a break from the long drives (our usual 5/6hr round trip was a 7hr one on the 27th), the faff and the inevitable frustration/disappointment.

Sod's law we put in a blinder and win today then revert to type when I'm back; Pickford making 45 saves and a corner deflecting in off Michael Keane's arse to beat us 1-0.

There's nothing as satisfying as giving this lot a hiding,yes you still only get 3 points but the entertainment that follows on Atv makes for a better match day experience imo 😁

Deepest, darkest Sussex
Hoping for a quick exit from the car park after the final whistle as everyone else leaves on 70 minutes when their 4th goal goes in

Arsenal aren’t all that, if we turn up and play the way we do in our good halves, for the whole match, we can win this.

We all know that we play good attacking football and will get into a lot of scoring positions but what we haven't been getting at home matches is luck; where have the opposition own-goals and keeper howlers gone? Isn't it time that an Enciso shot heading for the corner flag deflects past the keeper? Of course we will get more luck if we stop dithering in front of goal and get our shots away quicker. Fingers crossed that training this week has focussed on that...
Haven’t had luck? We’ve been incredibly lucky at home this season. Just last week we arguably should’ve had our best striker sent off. First game of the season we had Man Utd defending their own shots on our goal.

I'm coming over for the Everton match as well. Definitely don't want to see a smile on Dyche's face at the end

I think both West Ham (FC) and West Ham station were named after the area they serve. Arsenal station changed it's name from something else - and is therefore the only tube station to be 'named after a football club' as such.

West Ham is er... West Ham. Arsenal doesn't exist.

Originally known as Gillespie Road, it was renamed in 1932 after Arsenal Football Club
