Facts...useful, sometimes. Average fullness of stadium.
Liverpool 99.3%.
City 98.8%.
Arsenal 98.5%.
United 97.4%.
Chelsea 90.1%.
Spurs 89.9%.
We go to watch City and it is very tricky to get tickets. Best we could manage this season was Brighton in October. The rest are sold. Empty though, righto.
Two strong teams for the Charity Shield today Ryan ?
May the best team in blue prevail .
Those combined teams seemed to miss out Stones. He's fabulous.
Arsenal need to win today. I think City view Liverpool as currently a bigger rival than Arsenal, despite logic - ie Arsenal having the better players than Liverpool and much of that is the fact is that City always beat Arsenal whereas Liverpool regularly land punches on City. So if Arsenal win today I don't think it matters too much to City but if City win it will mean a lot to Arsenal.
Arsenal having better players than Liverpool.
Ha fantastic stuff Ryan.

I’d take odegaard for Liverpool, possibly rice and that’s it.

Arteta started already and it’s only a friendly.

Havertz has slotted in perfectly to the Jesus role of missing good chances.
Even game so far but Arsenal with the more clear cut chances. Kovacic has settled in really well I thought.
Decent first half, havertz showing again how he is not worth any money!
Crazy how much money we have spent and how far our 11 is behind city’s

Liking that 30 second injury rule. Arsenal gonna struggle with that if the players go down as easily as they did last season to disrupt a game.

Timber looks really good, if we had Harland I would agree with you Ryan, we don’t have a goal scorer

Nice cool finish that for such a young man.

Cracking finish! But mistake from Tierney as soon as he came on to give them the ball
Yes I agree. Even if the equaliser was with a massive slice of luck.

City fans crying cos they haven’t won a trophy for three weeks FFS 🤦*♂️
Saka must be the most overrated player in world football. Another nothing performance.
Good goal by Palmer - he’s having a really good 2023 so far and looks a talent, but I wonder if he might benefit from a year or 2 in the Bundesliga or elsewhere to get minutes. Doesn’t look on the cards though.
Let’s be fair you’re surely not judging him off that single game. I’m inclined to agree but time will tell.

Say what you want about Declan Rice but he's now won the 2 biggest trophies in the space of a few months
Even I'm a bit embarrassed with seeing Arteta celebrating in front of the Charity Shield with his kids. Let's not forget we are playing in this game only because Man Utd lost to City in the FA Cup Final. But an important win for Arsenal so they know they can compete with City even though I suspect City will get a lot better but then so again will we - we didn't have much cutting edge I thought.
