I’ve eaten 3 packets of sunflower seeds during this game

Nothing will change while they’re owned by private equity and a property magnate.

Oh man yeh Mrs A loves that shit too! Infectious

Personally I don’t see any plus to selling Wilson right now. He’s largely been great for us and fits perfectly into what we’re doing. Plus his face

That is the quintessential use of that gif.

It wouldn’t be a sensible course of action to sell our top scorer and player who Howe has confirmed leads our press on the field.

Ideally I don't want any of our key contributors from this year sold - they all deserve a chance to savour Europe and I want to see them given it. Think how much so many of them have improved - what's to say that exposure to (hopefully) elite level Euro football won't give them the platform to improve further?

Not an ITK at all but my Arsenal supporting friend who is usually right about all matters Arse says Tierney to us is done.

Now looks a good point.

Deliberately booked dinner out and leaving phone at home. Ashamed of myself but can't be dealing with it in real time.

I’ll call it, they’re next to go down. No appetite for their predicament.

Perfect for “Daniel”. Doesn’t ask questions and thick as a sandwich of mince pressed between two planks.

I think Levy is about to do with Mason what Ashley did to us with Carver. Kane off, Mason gets a bit of the money but won’t complain about being handicapped.

This is what worries me. Conspiracy theorist sure but I’m convinced they’re trying to sneak Liverpool in the back door like when you try and thumb in a softy.

Undoubtedly a tough game - but people worrying about the tactical match up: if you’ve noticed it, Howe noticed it months ago. He’ll know what his plan is.

I don't particularly like Gordon but work rate isn't his problem. Regularly tracks back and wins the ball before recycling. Issue is end product, being a bit of an arsehole and looking like an experiment gone wrong.

I understand the permutations but you'll never stop me enjoying watching Arteta, Arsenal and their legion of twat fans lose.

Not bad, but not good. I think some inexperience and immaturity showed through, especially Bruno and Joelinton who looked noticeably under-par. I suppose good to see some character shine through, but I think Howe would like that one back to have another go. Nothing quite clicked. I'm not sure about Isak-Wilson yet, doesn't seem to be quite clicking. With that said, usual spawny shit in favour of Allardyce with the equaliser. They go for you sometimes and others don't. Their gamesmanship was predictable; I don't think the referee had a poor game. I suppose as we needed a point and 2 wins, there's the point. Just would have rather had the comfort of being able to get that point against Brighton, if that makes sense.

But literally nobody is saying that.

Can’t comment on others but I don’t think it was a missed opportunity, I think it was a needless gamble. Anyway, cases made.

Or we can think both things at the same time, because our brains have the capacity to do so, without being told off by a bunch of strangers for it.

Yup, exact same for me. It’s the same intellectual value as “support the team not the regime” style arguments.

Just. So. Cool.

I did! Wore it in Amsterdam just the other week when visiting.

Ah yes, the traditional Valentine’s Day shark bite.
