760 of us spared Elneny, Partey, and Aubameyang none of their scorn, with each man receiving terrible scores. Auba "led" the line with a paltry 2.54, low enough to suggest that a lot of us are either (a)irrationally angry, (b) spiteful, (c) blaming him for a poor showing, or (d) some combination of all three. I know that I'm feeling all three. We'll have to have a further inquest into Aubemayang but also Partey, who has been an enigma at best. However, forests and trees and so on. It was a disappointing result considering our overall effort. But for a few moments here and there, we might have come away with the result we craved. No time to waste looking backward, though. We have to prepare for a trip to Everton on Monday. With that, then, here are our poll results...

All the stars align for Arsenal...what could possibly go wrong?
Ahead of our trip to Old Trafford, almost all of the news is coming up Arsenal: new interim-to-the-interim manager Ralf Rangnick will not yet be at the wheel, thanks in so small part to Brexit (see? and you thought Brexit was bad!), meaning that the current interim manager, Michael Carrick, will be. Shkrodan Mustafi—er, Harry Maguire—is fit and available. Varane, Pogba, and Cavani are probably unavailable. We haven't lost at Old Trafford in our last three trips and sport a not-too-shabby record 2W, 4D, 4L in our last ten. They're overconfident after a 1-1 draw away to Chelsea. Yes, indeed, it's all starting to feel like it's in the bag. What would possiblye go wrong? Possibly go wrong. Ha. That's the first thing that's ever gone wrong.

Arsenal 2-0 Newcastle: Ratings & MOTM Poll Results
With a grand total of 578 votes, 36% selected Bukayo Saka as our MOTM against Newcastle, with 29% preferring Tomiyasu (whom we actually rated higher). The knives were out for Aubameyang, whom we rated an ugly 4.31 after a poor all-around performance capped by that ignominious miss. We'll have to examine Aubameyang's form, role, and future at some point soon. For now, though, let's just bask in the glow of a tidy win...
