Match Thread: Cardiff City vs. Arsenal F.C.

CallToon · 2013-11-30T14:47:54+00:00

Cardiff defender Kevin Theophile-Catherine may get a bit excited later on, as Theo Walcott is back on the Arsenal bench. He just loves Theos. Loves 'em.

That was really Cheesy from BBC.

jkonine · 2013-11-30T16:23:47+00:00

So Giroud just learned the phrase "Fuck Off"

Musing7 · 2013-11-30T16:10:43+00:00

Szczesny has been immense all season

mullsork · 2013-11-30T15:31:03+00:00

I'm so happy Özil is no longer in Real Madrid, now I can enjoy watching him without feeling bad/weird/awkward :-)

ValentiaIsland · 2013-11-30T15:37:23+00:00

Ozil is so rubbish he now has the most assists this season

Batcatsheep · 2013-11-30T15:23:46+00:00

After the 6th-7th replay of the incident, we can conclude that Özil touched it.

cvillano · 2013-11-30T16:52:54+00:00

WE ARE GOING TO WIN THE WORLD CUP!

meet-your-maker · 2013-11-30T16:46:34+00:00

Typical ozil. Jogging about all game, seemingly useless only to get another assist. I miss him :(

drg123 · 2013-11-30T16:46:49+00:00

Ozil is pretty shit all right. 2 assists, pretty disappointing.

FredSports · 2013-11-30T15:29:51+00:00

1-0

2-0

3-0

CandleJakk · 2013-11-30T15:18:19+00:00

Everyone saying 'play to the whistle' I heard one on my stream, I assume he probably did as well.

limited_inc · 2013-11-30T15:08:04+00:00

Cardiff's owner looks like a Bond villain

2013-11-30T15:47:06+00:00

I was genuinely waiting for Ramsey to volley that on the run into the top corner...I think my expectations for him might be a tad inflated.

Gunner4life · 2013-11-30T16:49:19+00:00

Commentator on Metersacker.."the Big flying German.... or atleast thats what I think they say" , Loved it!

theleftflank · 2013-11-30T15:45:30+00:00

Sagna gets whacked in the nuts by Kim and its a goal kick?

missing404 · 2013-11-30T15:29:50+00:00

Like to see the muted celebration there. Nice gesture.

theleftflank · 2013-11-30T16:23:28+00:00

Lee Mason should be dropped to League 2 games.

ironmenon · 2013-11-30T16:46:48+00:00

Lol Flamini had no idea what to do after he scored "Guys.... I sscored?! Wtf! Oh shit this feels great!"

fakeplastictrees182 · 2013-11-30T15:44:14+00:00

I think we can see here how Ozil can make a difference for Arsenal. He loves to play those unpredictable, direct passes that no-one else in the team does. He especially loves those diagonal passes into Giroud in the box.

buzzedgod · 2013-11-30T16:12:02+00:00

"Arsenal aren't a great defensive side, despite their record."

U wot m8?

jkonine · 2013-11-30T16:15:31+00:00

Cardiff's fans are fucking awesome..

ValentiaIsland · 2013-11-30T16:16:07+00:00

everton are humping stoke

jkonine · 2013-11-30T16:45:44+00:00

I think thats why we bought Ozil.

Perfect ball.

missing404 · 2013-11-30T15:49:48+00:00

Ramsey almost spit on himself haha.

limited_inc · 2013-11-30T15:18:46+00:00

did look like Ozil got a nick on it tbh

2013-11-30T16:47:57+00:00

Only 2 assists? Get your shit together Ozil. sigh

potatosss · 2013-11-30T15:30:18+00:00

Good guy Cardiff fans clapping for Ramsey's goal

Edit: and again....

2013-11-30T16:23:12+00:00

The refereeing is appalling this game.

ValentiaIsland · 2013-11-30T16:53:33+00:00

Odemwingie's dive was not only awful but allowed Arsenal to break. What an idiot

Chi-Town_Gunner · 2013-11-30T15:24:28+00:00

Sagna is fucking up everybody's day

hobo_fred · 2013-11-30T16:00:58+00:00

Fuck, not Mert!

kulhajs · 2013-11-30T16:51:53+00:00

Poor Ramsey, just can't stop scoring.

demontaters · 2013-11-30T14:19:31+00:00

Whales, OP? Please...

el_guero · 2013-11-30T15:30:13+00:00

Ramsey is FOR REAL. What a player. Great ball from Ozil as well.

Brandaman · 2013-11-30T16:12:29+00:00

Are people still saying Szczesny isn't good enough?

Black_Nerd · 2013-11-30T16:54:59+00:00

7 points clear. I'm not used to this feeling..

CallToon · 2013-11-30T14:16:08+00:00

Lineups:

Cardiff: Marshall, Taylor, Caulker, Turner, Whittingham, Medel, Campbell, Kim, Mutch, Cowie, Théophile-Catherine.

Bench: Hudson, Cornelius, Odemwingie, Noone, Gunnarson, Lewis, Bellamy

Arsenal: Szczęsny, Sagna, Mertesacker, Koscielny, Arteta, Wilshere, Özil, Giroud, Ramsey, Cazorla, Gibbs.

Bench: Vermaelen, Rosický, Walcott, Monreal, Flamini, Fabiański, Gnabry

Caponegro · 2013-11-30T16:52:07+00:00

That is what Walcott does. It took, what, one minute? Tidy finish by Ramsey.

sharkbait_oohaha · 2013-11-30T16:57:50+00:00

Respect to the Cardiff fans. Here's hoping you keep taking points from the other title contenders.

ididwot · 2013-11-30T16:23:26+00:00

I swear Lee Mason is anti-Giroud today.

HansSven · 2013-11-30T16:55:59+00:00

Two assists for Ozil, two goals for Rambo, an assist for Theo, and a goal for the fully sleeved Flam....near perfect day.

HarryCochrane · 2013-11-30T15:33:02+00:00

Arteta ties his laces like he's on speed.

JR97111 · 2013-11-30T15:30:54+00:00

Ramsey goal and non-celebration.

copinglemon · 2013-11-30T16:26:44+00:00

Cazorla has not been playing well :/

2013-11-30T15:29:11+00:00

Good to see the Cardiff fans clap for Ramsey.

JR97111 · 2013-11-30T16:46:43+00:00

Flamini goal GIF and Flamini goal MP4

jkonine · 2013-11-30T16:46:47+00:00

I just noticed that Wenger has a new jacket with better defined pockets.

2013-11-30T16:53:15+00:00

Odemwingie's dive allowed that goal to happen

ironmenon · 2013-11-30T15:33:29+00:00

So, Arsenal have one the most aerially dominant CFs in the league, the headed goals so far have come from Ozil and Ramsey.

Dopeydinosaur · 2013-11-30T16:45:20+00:00

You know you're good when you get Flamini to score

alejpaz · 2013-11-30T16:45:33+00:00

Dat Ozil pass...

2013-11-30T16:54:07+00:00

Jesus tits, Walcott!

aronidus · 2013-11-30T16:54:37+00:00

Theo it is wonderful to have you back

2013-11-30T15:20:26+00:00

Özil definitely touched it.

ProG87 · 2013-11-30T16:01:53+00:00

Came back to that Fred Sport stream just now with that music playing and I thought fuck Irish ads are intense.

2013-11-30T16:45:42+00:00

i love that finish, what a hit from flamini. great ball by ozil.

2Chainz4Braceletz · 2013-11-30T16:46:16+00:00

YOU CAN CUT YOUR SLEEVES IF YOU WANT

theleftflank · 2013-11-30T16:44:50+00:00

WHAT A GOAAAL, 2nd assist from Ozil!

HansSven · 2013-11-30T16:51:50+00:00

GAAAAAAAAAH! MAGISTEEEEERIAAAAAAALLLLL!!!!

2013-11-30T16:54:59+00:00

Ramsey's initial touch was actually fairly poor. Good thing he more than made up for it with the finish

gq_mcgee · 2013-11-30T16:45:09+00:00

THE FLAMSTER!

creporiton · 2013-11-30T16:46:08+00:00

What an assist machine!

buntysatya · 2013-11-30T16:52:30+00:00

Nice to see Cardiff fans applauding Ramsey.

PoofyHairedIdiot · 2013-11-30T14:17:26+00:00

A very exciting upcoming game today between the best team of Whales, Cardiff.

There's a team full of whales? That's a rather amusing mental image.

Unfortunately not true. There's only one Charlie Adam, and he plays for Stoke, not Cardiff.

mullsork · 2013-11-30T15:17:00+00:00

Since Özil flicked it he should've been offside though, right?

EDIT: I did not see right, I guess Giroud thought Özil touched it. Should've played to the whistle anyway, of course EDIT2: Quite sure he touched it.

Deziire · 2013-11-30T15:29:48+00:00

You're a class act Ramsey, respect

2013-11-30T16:48:10+00:00

Lee Mason sucks. He's missed about 15 Cardiff fouls as well as 5 or 6 Arsenal ones.

thenutter · 2013-11-30T15:29:33+00:00

Fuuuuck what a header.

theleftflank · 2013-11-30T16:10:04+00:00

What a save sir szcz.

copinglemon · 2013-11-30T16:10:58+00:00

Get that shit out of Szsz's house

cvillano · 2013-11-30T16:16:26+00:00

Oh, the ref is Lee Mason, I've been saying it was Anthony Taylor all match

fakeplastictrees182 · 2013-11-30T16:46:04+00:00

Boy that Ozil guy sure is lazy huh? Assist in the 85th minute, what a sensational player.

kenny_dewitt · 2013-11-30T16:46:05+00:00

That's what Ozil can do for you. What a beauty of a pass to find Flamini. And the gunners were panicking...

Norma_Bates · 2013-11-30T15:18:47+00:00

I heard a whistle, must of been someone in the crowd. He just saved his team from going 1-0 down.

hammad7 · 2013-11-30T14:46:41+00:00

Who here doesn't watch football via internet streaming? Be honest.

2013-11-30T16:51:57+00:00

Dat pace from Theo

jasonbatemansfather · 2013-11-30T15:31:06+00:00

i know they booed him in 09, but that was nice.

Cardiff fans are anti-cunts. And by cunts I mean Stoke.

chriseubankth · 2013-11-30T16:36:25+00:00

Fuck sake Cazorla, get him off Wenger

edit: Wenger saw my comment

reddit_then_blewit · 2013-11-30T15:16:02+00:00

This is the first time I have seen a striker do that.

EDIT:Glad it is from Arsenal.

Publix_Illuminati · 2013-11-30T15:16:20+00:00

Holy shit, Giroud... You could've walked that one in

skyline385 · 2013-11-30T15:17:29+00:00

That linesman's pose lol.

donny_pots · 2013-11-30T15:18:40+00:00

Szcz is on top of his game recently

mullsork · 2013-11-30T15:28:40+00:00

That was a god damn nice goal!

ValentiaIsland · 2013-11-30T16:12:53+00:00

Cardiff are the best promoted team this year by a long way.

cvillano · 2013-11-30T16:13:08+00:00

Fuck off Cardiff, stop doing stuff!

2013-11-30T16:25:21+00:00

2nd fucking mistake by Lee Mason regarding Olivier Giroud

bike_will_made_it · 2013-11-30T16:32:32+00:00

who did Özil tell to "fuck off" in the Cardiff area?

gq_mcgee · 2013-11-30T16:46:49+00:00

My word, what a ball from Özil.

2013-11-30T16:49:28+00:00

Özil does not like getting subbed

BigAssTrains · 2013-11-30T16:52:08+00:00

Silly dive by Odemwingie, only reason we got our third

chriseubankth · 2013-11-30T15:30:25+00:00

I get the non-celebrating on this one tbh.

Great reaction by the Cardiff fans when they called out his name.

2013-11-30T15:30:06+00:00

2013-11-30T16:38:29+00:00

Szcz has been top class today

deception42 · 2013-11-30T16:44:42+00:00

What a goal!

2013-11-30T16:45:22+00:00

Holy fuck Ozil what a pass !!

deception42 · 2013-11-30T16:49:26+00:00

Flamini was seen as a desperation signing by Arsenal, but damn he's been great for them since rejoining.

_scholar_ · 2013-11-30T15:15:47+00:00

Are you fucking kidding me? Just shoot first and don't wonder "am I offside?"

Caponegro · 2013-11-30T16:47:00+00:00

ozil is a pig he doesn't run very hard not enough blooters just run up and hit the thing y'know? fuckin hell son

2013-11-30T14:03:30+00:00

[deleted]

2013-11-30T15:22:16+00:00

I thought Ozil clearly had a touch on that non-offside call.

bibbl · 2013-11-30T15:41:36+00:00

Imagine arsenal with a striker like aguero or someone..

el_fuego91 · 2013-11-30T16:53:45+00:00

So I'm curious to see when people are going to finally start seeing Arsenal for the title contenders they are this season.

2013-11-30T16:46:43+00:00

[deleted]

toffeeapple89 · 2013-11-30T15:19:59+00:00

From the replay it looks as if Ozil did touch it. But still.

deception42 · 2013-11-30T15:28:39+00:00

That was a beautiful header

missing404 · 2013-11-30T15:28:40+00:00

2013-11-30T15:28:41+00:00

what a fucking goal

workersbravo · 2013-11-30T15:38:01+00:00

To the announcers, I appreciate you always saying "Theophile-Catherine", but if it just says "Theophile" on his shirt I think that's all you need to say.

Also Theophile-Catherine's first touch is not good.

legendfourteen · 2013-11-30T16:10:22+00:00

What. A. Save.

JR97111 · 2013-11-30T16:11:58+00:00
