Yeah. Anyone else see Payet take a full bottle to the head last weekend as he was setting up for a corner?

United announce new managers as slowly as they announce new players, it seems :lol:

The European playoffs for the World Cup are about to be drawn, live streams on YouTube and FIFA.com (probably only of interest to any Welsh or Scottish forumites!)

Scotland and Wales in the same 'Path' :slol:

Edit - and now Italy and Portugal are in the same path, this is actually quite exciting!

Ooof one of Italy and Portugal not going :slol:

Yeah this is perfect :lol:

if both of those games are the finals it'll be brilliant.

Tricky games for both Scotland and Wales in Ukraine and Austria, both should fancy themselves though! Ukraine arguably the toughest team in that pot alongside Poland.

Italy and Portugal should stroll past North Macedonia and Turkey. Dat probable final. :datass:

Anyone got any ideas what I can get an arsenal fan for secret Santa?. £10 spend. Happy to go slightly over.

Pretty happy with that as a Scotland fan!

Though would've preferred Poland for my local rivalry. And Poland have been dogshit lately.

I think all four teams in our path (as a Wales fan) are probably fairly happy with how it went. Really glad we managed to get the home draw if we do progress to the final, Wales v Scotland in Cardiff could be a massive night if it happens.

It's like a strawberry floating Entmoot over there.

We've decided *froom-ti-toom* that *baba-boom* that *harumph* we're in agreement to needing someone new in charge of the squad of players on match days now that we've given the halfling the entboot.

A bobbling figure head of Piers Morgan. :slol:

You having to buy Arsenal stuff is the Christmas present I didn't know I needed :nod:

How about Haaland? Might have to go slightly over budget but I'm sure he'd like the gift...

Serious answer: if you don't want to directly finance The Arsenal Football Club PLC (and I don't blame you - I'm a Gooner and I'm not that keen on the concept right now!), may I suggest an independent creator? Poorly Drawn Arsenal springs to mind, as does She Wore a Yellow Ribbon. Etsy is also worth a look. Arseblog has a directory called Arsebiz that lists various businesses owned by Gooners, some of those might have something.

A trophy /obvious answer

All or Nothing Juventus is on Amazon Prime if anybody is interested watching it.

pretty comfortable win for Arsenal, a lovely goal from Martinelli, glad he got a goal.

It hasn't quite worked for him since his bad injury so hopefully this is him hitting the same sort of groove he was in early in his career.

Thiago roll before his goal was wonderful.
