It's Burnley V Arsenal at Turf moor and I am nervous. Will we smash them or escape with a draw? And as this is a 3pm kick off in the UK, it will be much easier for a farmer in a 3rd world country to watch this on TV than myself. No offence to the farmer.
3.59 seconds in and BANG! 1-0.!!Martinelli gets one near the box for Odegard to finish it! Okay lets go. This is the Arsenal I recognise from last season. Always starting games at a blazing pace. Maybe this season we will end how we began the last one?
7m in Burnley get a yellow. Burnley already thinking of plan B? It's getting spicy now... 11m and Trossard needs to finish that. Onside and oh my Good Lord. The keeper gets a hand to it to save the blushes. Trossard tried to walk around the keeper. More please. 24m and Burnley have a shot at close range but Raya meets it with a hand. Burnley are not out of this and we need a 2nd goal to feel secure. 38m Pen! Trossard taken down in the box 2-0. Saka shoots down the right. I am no longer nervous. Lets go.
47m Boooyaka Saka 3-0! Right now lets go for 7 please. 65m Trossard 4-0. I knew it was either a thrashing or a close one and a thrashing it is. Time to rest some players. I could not be happier right now. Arsenal are looking to end the season strongly. 77m Kai Havarts gets one on one with keeper and scores. 5-0. I've seen it all now. Arsenal fans singing "are you West Ham in disguise.." LOL. 10m of ET and there are boos in the stadium. Yeah I would hate to watch my team getting smashed too. Now the chant is "Burnley get battered everywhere they go" LOL.
Shout out to Kiwior who is so much better than cry baby Zinchenko. He was solid and the one time in the game when a Burnley player got past Saliba, Kiwior was there to help clean up. Had it been Zinny I honestly believe they would have passed him to score. He is already feeling like an upgrade. We needed a win and got what we wanted in style. It wasn't 7-0 but I will take 5. We are still here. Thank you very much and see you next week.
