Arsenal Player buffering 'as live'

Patience is a virtue...the screen bursts into life. I miss the first few seconds but the game is on.
It's all down the left...Akpom's putting himself about and shoots wide after 7 mins.
Rambo went even closer shorty afterwards. He gives the ball away a bit, but generally looks quite sharp.
Birthday Boy Gnabry registers first shot on target and Theo scores opener a with his sidefoor a few minutes later. The Ox's assist deserves a lot of credit.
It's 1-0 to Arsenal at half-time and it's back to the studio.
Hughes adds a couple of 'very much so's for good measure in the interval analysis, but his comments are more interesting than the match so far.

Eight Diamonds are not forever - except at Arsenal

I never thought I'd be so happy to see Dan Roebuck and Stephen Hughes. Finally, Arsenal Player has come to life!
Don't know why Roebuck is calling Nagoya Grampus 'Eight' and Urawa Red 'Diamonds'. Those names are history. It's like them calling us 'Woolwich' Arsenal.
Three 'very much so's from Hughes so far in response to Roebuck's questions pre-match. 'Transfers do take a lot of time,' Hughes says. It's funny other clubs can get the business done.
Talking of business, it's strange how Wenger has been convinced to take the squad out to the Far East. It's a purely money decision, as Wenger didn't want our players clocking up unnecessary miles back in his early days. Anyway, I'm glad this tour has happened, regardless.
