He was mad to come here. It would be a different challenge, sure, but he currently works for Mike Ashley, who repeatedly tries to fuck him over. It would be a perfectly sensible move for him. He may or may not want that kind of job, who knows, but it would certainly be reasonable for him to consider it.

+1 for the passionate bear

The main argument was that Rafa wouldn't be loved as much at Arsenal as he is here. Also that Rafa would have more control over transfers here than at Arsenal because they assume that if Wenger moves on he'd be moved to a sort of director of football type role I mean, Rafa would be plenty loved there if he did well. I don't think that would be a significant element if Rafa was in the mindset that he still wanted to compete and be the best. That absolutely will not happen here under our ownership. It could under theirs. But aye, if there was some looming Arsene DoF shit going on, I could be inclined to agree. But I'm not so sure that's a certainty...

They're thick as fuck then. He should absolutely go there if he was offered the job. Fan adoration aside, Mike Ashley owns this club. The problem at Arsenal is Arsene Wenger. Who knows if it'd work out or not, but he'd have a significantly better chance of winning (lots of) stuff with them than us. Alright if we were talking Everton or one of the other teams that loiter around 8th place, but Arsenal are a whole different kettle of fish iyam.

I like it. Didn't know the song like, but I don't go that much and never have, but I like the sentiment and I like that it's a slightly ridiculous thing to lob on a banner. Don't care about potential Photoshop consequences.

There's nee chance Vorm replaces him surely.

BLAMMO. Nee fuckin about that time.

My issue is that we'll have groups like: Germany, Chile, UAE, where both Germany and Chile will obliterate UAE and effectively qualify from winning that single game. I'd almost be happier if they set out a slow roll-out plan. Like those numbers are the end-game. So right now we marginally increase Asia/COMBEBNEBAL numbers, and they'll slowly increase over the years. So by World Cup 2142, Haiti can make the World Cup.

I think there needs to be a balance between size of continent and actual quality of the teams. IYAM South America could be given more than 6. For 2018, 6 South American teams would be: Brazil* Uruguay* Argentina* Colombia* Peru* Chile with Paraguay, Ecuador, Bolivia and Venezuela failing to make the cut. In Asia, 8.5 teams sees the following teams qualify: Iran* South Korea* Japan* Saudi Arabia* Australia* Syria Uzbekistan UAE Iraq/China to play qualifier CONCACAF: Mexico* Costa Rica* Panama* Honduras USA Trinidad and Tobago Guatamala/Haiti/Canada to play qualifier Not sure if you've worked out my point yet, but those additional North America/Asia teams that could get in? All fucking shite.

Safer to just abolish it because otherwise they'll fuck it up.

did you just assume his shape

Aye Alli is one of our best players. He could kill a man and he'd still be in the squad.

sounds like he was just injured the whole time so they shipped him back

i listened. it was silent before the goal and silent after the goal.

alreet game over lets go romaaaaaaaa

Man City definitely can't work out those short corner offsides like

pls win 5-1 tho thatd be class

Exactly. At the points in the attack where Man City players touched the ball, no-one was in an offside position.

salah is canny like

The commentators are still talking about whether it was deliberate that Milner hit the ball!? I don't get why. Do they think the city player next to Milner hit it first?

He’s offside if it comes off the Man C player and not Milner. Sane looked level to me? Might be looking at the wrong phase of play like... Nah he wasn't, he was a good distance offside at the time Milner played the ball.

No Man City player passed it ffs. He's not offside.

You watching on Fox? yas

The commentator is talking about whether it was a deliberate attempt or something No idea what he thinks happened.
