Let’s check in and see how things are going for Arsenal on the first day of the season.



With or without those 2 I think today is going to point to where Arsenal's season is headed. This Brentford squad is a team they should clearly beat, and if we see another 1-0 lead limping into the 70th minute only to be surrendered by some stupid defensive breakdown, "same old shit" is on the menu for ARS fans and most will suspect that. Faith in Arteta will erode quickly, imo.

Lose lose situation today. A win won’t be a win unless it’s dominant and anything less will be apocalyptic.

Willian not in the starting 11 again, Partey still hurt. Saka not starting, either.

Pepe and Martinelli will need to carry the offense. Possibly Tierney stepping up.

Seems like it's going to be a long season for Arsenal. They usually atleast start the season on the right foot before eventually fading away.

But that line-up... it's really bad. Everything would need to work to perfection to finish top-6. Certainly doesn't start well with Aubameyang and Lacazette both out.

Horrid. Typical. There's that 70+ minute goal, only they were trailing to begin with.

Arteta may not survive this season. This team does not look like it has any spark or direction.

Chambers and Leno are weak links at the back, as well.

Well... he's in for an uphill battle.

Chelsea next and Manchester City after that for them... yikes.

What a weird line-up for Man Utd.

Shame Phillips is only on the bench. They have a great chance to upset ManU here.

Who's more depressed today...Arsenal fan or Leeds fan?

Arsenal fan for sure... Leads got thrashed at Old Trafford year ago too, didn't stop them elsewhere.

Meanwhile in Germany... Haaland starts the season. 3 goals in the last friendly game before the season and once the season starts... goal and 2 assists in the first 45 minutes. He's so good it's ridiculous and he just turned 21 in july.

Just turned on PSG, Messi not playing. PSG up. Didn't see the first half but in the 2nd Strasbourg are essentially mugging PSG players every chance they get.
