03:20 – Chelsea main title threat?: we are all there. They deserve to be where they are. It makes sense.

Does Declan Rice have a chance to win the Ballon d'Or with Arsenal?
Iโm nervous for this game, like any big game but Chelsea fans seem super confident and I donโt know why?
Every week Gyokeres and Haverts are very Close??? What does that mean?
Hands up ๐ if you knew Palmer would be fit for this one.
I was very close during that Bayern performance too
Some of these questions are justโฆ๐คฆ๐ปโโ๏ธ
There's always a test to be conducted whenever we want to let our anxieties down๐๐
For so-called football journalists, they sure ask a lot of dumb questions.
He comes from Sweden
I wonder why they bother asking Mikel about injuries.. He always says the same thing. ๐
Who is that idiot press asking about Estavao to Arteta?
He is not our player..u shld be asking the question to the Chelsea manager instead..put a gear in ur brain bro..
Ask relevant question about the game and not about individual..
Wake ur fucking idea up..
COYG.

Whosoever was typing on his or her computer in this interview is a hell of a typer and the person deserves a raise
Arteta's scans are done in war tone Sudan , that's why they take that long
Why are some of those reporters (itโs often the same guy actually) wasting their valuable questions with asking something that everyone knows Arteta wonโt answer anyway. Of course he is not talking about individual players. He always says that. Why waste time and one of their questions?
Thatโs dumb
Why do they ask the same question over and over again ๐ค goodness me. Do they not listen to each other's question?
Seems like Arsenal have to make a statement in every game at every ground every week.
To be manager is not an easy job..
If i am a manager & i hear that kimmich comment i won't be this calm like arteta….. See how arteta calmly responded to his comments & said he understand him without fuse๐ฎ๐
๐He definitely saw the Kimmich comments
Wait kimmich said we rely on long ball and set pieces but there goal that he passed was from a long ball! We also scored two goals from open play ๐คทโโ๏ธ
If the entire squad returns to full fitness before the end of this year and the team maintains this high level of performance between January and April then I am confident that we can win not only the EPL, but the CL as well.
Damn guys! You read my mind
Thank god big Gabby is not playing. We are better without him. Hincapie show is coming!!
Arteta is so meticulous in the way he works that I sometimes think even his blinking is precisely coordinated down to the smallest detail.
If Arsenal do what i think they will against Chelsea, which is nulify and oppress just like we did Bayern. I will have no doubt in my mind that we will go on and win a major this season.
Not only is the team performing, but Mikel has been getting the tactics spot on as well.
Its early but if we win at stamford bridge its long for everyone
Why canโt I win the balon dor ๐ก
Kimmich needs to re watch the game and looks at the goal they scored! long ball, instant cross, maybe they missed a trick
So I'm happy

Bayern's goal came from a long ball, remind Kimmich of that

Arsenal lack a true LEADER to win big titles !
Buy back the true Captain Xhaka !!!
09:04 BabyMikel is definitely thee teacher's pet
Kimmich says about the long ball play, is that not how he created a goal scoring opportunity for Bayern?
questions were especially shit today, great
๐ต๐ธ๐๐ฉ๐ฝโ๐ผโ๐ฎ๐ชI'd love to see Havertz and Gyokeres playing together! Apartheid has NO RIGHT TO EXIST! ๐ต๐ธ๐๐ฉ๐ฝโ๐ผโ๐ช๐ธ๐โ
Zubemindi will win Balondo'or. cause, Spain can be win trophy and also Arsenal will too.
I think Martinelli should play up front, Madueke or Eze on the left
From Arsenal Rice and Gabriel should get a nomination. Donโt know about winning it, maybe if we get some silverware over the line.
Biggie Gaby…
Declan Rice ๐พ is in the position to win ๐ the Ballon dโor. COYG to thrash Chelsea God willing ๐๐ฝ. Arsenal rocks ๐ชจ.
Rice
