That’s absolutely not true. He left because he wanted to build something long term , and he felt all the fed wanted was to get into the World Cup

You can sit in the Gallowgate and be about 450m from Grey's Monument. It's about as city centre as it's possible to get tbh

Strictly speaking St James is as much on the edge of the city centre?

That's totally right. They've got so much money, missing the Champions League for a couple of years won't hurt them. We'd feel it after just one year though. Mandy said we'll be number one in 5-10 years, and we're about to start our fourth season, with two CL qualifications and a Cup already. Let's just be patient and let them do their thing. We're in good hands. It's frustrating sometimes, sure, but that'll make the eventual success even sweeter..

I think it’s a bit silly to write him off after some meaningless end of season games, those players didn’t look interested at all and wanted to be on holiday. His team selections don’t exactly inspire much confidence but again it’s end of a long season for some players, this guy does know what he’s doing and no doubt rest/rotation played a part. Give it some time. I’d like to see less direct play though, even if the selection is limited in some aspects.

The only things that are going to get us closer to the cartel teams are increased commercial revenues and an academy that produces highly saleable assets at least every other season.

find this extremely funny. Fuck ‘em.

I respectfully disagree with your assessment. While consecutive Champions League qualifications are undoubtedly significant, increased spending and risk-taking this season do not guarantee qualification. With eight teams competing for four or five spots, there's no certainty of achieving back-to-back qualifications, even with a strong squad. From a fan's perspective, I understand the appeal of taking risks. However, our risk-taking has already led to the sale of two players, Miniteh and Anderson. (Incidentally, you spent a considerable portion of last summer questioning the efforts of Wor Mandy and others i.e overspending) The reality of improving our financial position requires a long-term strategy. Reaching Arsenal's revenue levels won't happen in two or three seasons; it will take five years or more. A patient and measured approach is essential. I would rather sell Isak on our terms rather than sell him out of desperation (you said Brighton took us to the cleaners regarding the price of Miniteh) I respectfully disagree with the approach you've suggested; it doesn't seem sound or reasonable. It's understandable given that your job isn't at stake, but those running the club, and I, hold a different perspective. And about bold bit. The problem with that logic is, if we sell Isak after overspending, we won't be able to replace him with anyone good because we'll be just be selling him to meet the PSR (just like with Minteh and Anderson). If we sell Isak on our terms, without overspending first, we can get decent replacements and fill other spots. Get what I mean?

If it gets done, Jacob Ramsey would be this month for Villa's PSR, no? The consensus is that they must sell someone.

Companies working with the club have been working with the council to use data and background docs from adjacent recent developments to help inform their work according to my sources so it sounds like progress is still happening at whatever rate it is. Got to wonder if D.Ealesy will slow everything up further though.

Grealish is a very good player mind , not sure what's happened to him the last year or two but he would still be good enough for us even if he is a totally different player to the way we play. It will never happen though due to his wages .

I don't disagree, he's just still in the benefit of the doubt area for me. Henderson tho...

Portugal, Spain, France, Croatia have all managed to have at least 1 decent game. And tbh it's the selections that look barmy too.

Glad he hasn't retired to the US/Saudi Be interesting to see how he gets on there

Better actor for sure.

Strange one.

Think Carsley had the right idea.

I mean what do people expect from fixtures after long grueling league season? I dunno anyone would have sparked a stirring performance On the other hand this does all feel like classic FA overreaction signing. Southgate was hired and kept on on vibes (and also results, it's just when we get to a final we were always by far the worse team). But FA are like hmmmmm can't go all the way with a common garden vibesman. Need to sign a super intelligent systems manager who wants to instill modern posession football. Only that's really tough thing to do with a rotating cast of players who barely spend any time together. Also don't get me wrong, Tuchel could well be that perfect balancing manager in the middle whom can instill good vibes in the camp, get the players delivering their best on the pitch, and also tactically competent to know that TAA is not a fucking defensive mid. I do think though he has a long way to go in only a year before the world cup tho

Tuchel has started very poorly

De Bruyne to Napoli confirmed.

Welcome to the spitroast era.

Less that, more:

Fuck um
