I'd like to think the club have learned the lesson of just extending a player's contract because it's either a) too much hassle to properly scout a better replacement and/or b) he's a canny lad so let's just keep him around. Seen it happen to Hayden and Gayle albeit under the previous regime. People will dispute what Longstaff offers these days, I'm firmly on the side of 'nowhere near enough'. I couldn't justify extending him and I'd take the best offer for him and look for his replacement tomorrow. It's harsh but I think the club needs to improve and I honestly don't see Longstaff being a part of that. I'd love him to be great but he just isn't

The only good news is that the larger clubs can't afford to ease up for the last 2 fixtures like they have been able to. Previously if a team wins the first 4 games they're basically through as winners and can start rotating players and probably drop a few points in the process. Now they can't really afford to do that. They will all want to be in that top 8 to get the bye and they'll need to win as many games as possible as the competition will be fierce, they'll not be able to ease off as another club will leapfrog them and pip them. Fully expecting a few utter drubbings as teams will look to pad out their GD as a tie-breaker if need be

If we get the new stadium I hope it's like the Wanda. Looks like a bit of a cauldron but the atmosphere is made by the fans, the ground won't do it by itself

xG was 0.97 vs 4.67

This is their 9th game of the season and so far they've only beaten Fulham and Barnsley at home and Southampton away. No idea how much more time they can realistically give this useless arsehole to pull out around. He's got no excuses left now

Didn't realise Trashford was still on the park, assumed he'd been subbed at HT

Brilliant finish Kulu

Ah, here he is. Mr Casemiro. He'll save the day

They couldn't have any complaints if they were going in 3 down and down to 10 men too. They've stunk the place out and the players look like they've just about given up on their boss. Chelsea have put this exact type of performance in a few times to get shot of a boss they don't fancy

Red for Bruno

Hot fuck!

It's about to become much fucking clearer. I swear

I'm looking after the members and seeing your (fucking horrible and derogatory) post directed at another member kind of stood out. It's not a normal way to reply to people To suggest it's me who may have the problem with your post is highly indicative of where you're at tbh

You're being an arsehole and I'd like you to stop. You either do or you don't

Finger is literally over the button. Take the hint, please

If you're the one degrading people and winding others up then you'll be the one who 'stops'. Trust me

Any need for this shit? Seriously?

Another nod to this gentleman, picked up the jacket for myself and the green shirt for the boy. Pricey but it's nice gear

If there's no controversy there's nothing to discuss. If there's nothing to discuss then there's no need for the programme to exist. Anything even remotely controversial needs to be exaggerated to justify it's own existence

Looked far more like ourselves today and that's the best team performance this season by a mile. The press returned, the energy levels were high, no real individual mistakes, organised and Pope only had a few saves to make. Much much better and much much needed too. That'll prove to be a great point come May

Probably just doubling down on being stood down after lashing out 14 yellows the other week tbh. Can't stand people not automatically obeying him immediately so he's told the actual ref to send off a manager who's defied him and briefly stepped out of his allocated zone. Ultimate power-trip fanboy and loses more respect every week he pulls this shit, bloke is an utter prick

I'm not one for knee-jerk reactions but I've just put my house on the market and placing every penny on us winning the League next season. I'd strongly urge everyone else to follow my lead

Oh dear, how sad, never mind

Ahhhh so it's "cute" when Arsenal are doing this shit and "shithousing" when we do it? Got it

I'll go 9 minutes injury time
