What exactly happened in the clash between Bournemouth Vs Arsenal

Weekends are always wonderful when spiced up with football matches from different leagues and and the beauty comes out exceptionally well when the matches become as interesting as we've wanted them to be.

I am never a fan of Arsenal football club nor am I a fan of many other clubs, I literally see most clubs as just entertainment, that is to say I don't really care if they win or lose, I just want to enjoy the matches they play, but then, coming to Chelsea football club, that's where there's a flow of emotions for me.
I just want them to win against all odds even today, lol.

That notwithstanding, Mikel Arteta's Arsenal football club has been magical for 2 consecutive seasons now making me a lover of their team as you see them put up an interesting performance every game week aiming at the 3points up for grab.
Prior to yesterday's lost, they have failed to win just two matches and those were the matches they were penalized with a red card.

  • First was against Brighton which ended up in a 1-1 draw.
  • Second was against Manchester City which ended up in a 2-2 draw.

Now, these are two clubs tougher than Bournemouth which Arsenal lost to yesterday.
They held the better teams to draw but lost to an average Bournemouth, it's a maths I'm yet to find the formula for; I guess football happens anyway.

What Theory Do You Think Explains Yesterday?

  • Was it because of the absence of Saka?
  • Was it because of the importance of the player who was carded, William Saliba?
    Or
  • Was it from fatigue of international break duties?

Which theory most suits your interpretation for the show you saw yesterday?



Personally, I'll be going for the 2nd theory.

It's no news that Arsenal Football Club has got one of the best defenders in football currently and that's because of these two guys, Gabriel and Saliba whose chemistry is just mysterical.
Distorting that equilibrium yesterday literally exposed their defensive backline a lot and owing to the unavailability of their star boy, Saka, who picked an injury from international duties, there was literally no attacking threat so Bournemouth players were very relaxed pushing Arsenal players to the wall without having much concern on their defensive duties which Arsenal players couldn't capitalize on too...

It was quite a show yesterday because it wasn't the first they were shown a red card but it was the first they could not put up a decent struggle after a red card.

Will they bounce back from here or would they go back to lose a bit before they get themselves back on pace again?
That will be a question we will get to answer in no due time....

What's your own theory, that's if you watched the match not livescore merchants, lol


Meanwhile, you know who plays today right?

Hi,
I used a bit of your post to do mine on Arsenal. Well I have some different views on this matter right above in my post.

Erm well, I heard Palmer could do enough to stop the loss. Sorry.

I expect the Gunners would teach Chelsea how it is done, in the next match.

Regards bro

Hehehe... The strong shall prevail 😂
