We've still got nine senior defenders at the club, though admittedly it's a bit of a stretch to include Lascelles. Kelly's played 596 minutes out of 2,700 this season.

Don't think we could be much worse defensively with Targett, Botman, and Krafth playing instead tbh.

Thought Bruno was easily the best of the midfield three, some of his passing in the first half was sublime.

We've done all the work, remember...

Just the Schär one-on-one, probably our move of the match.

It's mad how much any sort of adversity knocks us, like, and I have to include myself in that because it's definitely harder to belt stuff out when everyone goes so flat. Thought it was one of the better games of the season considering the opposition until the second half.

People leaving at 2-1 again then plenty bews at the end. FML.

I was trying to be kind, as I love the bloke. He looked shite in the ground, but his stats are something else. Only won 4/13 duels, didn't make a single tackle, block, clearance, or interception, and was dribbled past three times. Also deservedly booked yet again, obviously, which leaves him one yellow off a two-game ban. He's largely lost the plot this season, sadly.

He's been pretty average lately anyway and was particularly awful today.

Sels man

It won’t.

This is so good man, blitzing them

Fairy snuff. I'd include Arsenal within the 'this week' comment, given it's Friday, but maybe he just meant this weekend.

'Callum is getting there. We have seen him in training this week. He's not been involved in all of the session but part of it. There is no plan to involve him this week but (there is a) chance for games coming up after.' I know Howe tells porkies, but that seems pretty clear-cut.

Willock and Osula get rinsed in all of these videos like.

Seems like he’s now targeting Brum rather than Arsenal based on Howe’s presser. Sigh.

Ahem.

I'm not usually looking at the stadium exterior when I'm inside the stadium, mind. I'm looking at the stadium exterior plenty on a matchday and during the rest of the week, though, and it currently gives me a warm fuzzy glow. Don't really want to lose that if possible.

That could be about 10x longer, like, can we not just get them to spend an entire day together and film the whole thing?

I'm still partial to the exterior of The Emirates of all the more modern stadiums. It seems to have a bit more about it than most, though there are still some airport terminal vibes.

Looks like an airport terminal.
