We did better than expected, but still way too short. In January we need at least 4 in, a CH, LB, ST and a quality holding Mid, but not pinning any hopes on it happening. Now we're relying on proper coaching to help bridge the gap, hopefully it does. We need our first win and a dominate performance under our belts to boot.

Would be very deflating. Hmmm, wonder if Townsend would be part of that deal if it happened? how shit would that be? Spurs rob us of Ayoze and bum us once more by dumping a slightly less shit Obertan in our lap, to play with the Obertan we already have The paradox will be complete when Obertan is selected ahead of him.

Why release someone who scores goals irrespective of his all round game for somebody that looks like he makes piss video's with his mam?

Unfortunately he's not given us enough of a look at him thus far apart from that header vs man poo, and his rashness. I do believe we need a striker like him though. We need more of a presence in some games, but up until now he's not really impressed a great deal.

Bit like the Rooney elbow from a few seasons back that was totally ignored. A stink needs to be made about that Shaw stamp.

Doesn't seem like someone Van Gaal would be interested in.

Rolan contracts usually do.

That's that theory out the window. I very much doubt we will be in for anybody, even if we let Cisse go. It would be crazy to do so, but we've not had a shit sandwich this summer from Ashley yet, so this could be it.

Just know that motd will show his other two bookings to back up their argument.

Should be no reason to stop us getting at least one of those in now. Wont happen.

Aye was listening whilst in the garden with the kids. He was disgusted by Marriner, and commented on how Arsenal players were doing the exact same things and not getting booked.

January should hopefully see. Quality Left Back Quality Centre Half Quality Defensive Mid

Mcclaren says they'll appeal. Make that a 4 match ban.

Think you need to look at the bigger picture here. It's quite obvious McLaren is building from the back. Make us harder to beat by being organised so everyone knows their jobs defensively. Once that sinks in throughout the squad, then we can work on pushing forward more. I would have my concerns if after 15 games we hadn't scored many though. It was never going to happen overnight.

You a dutch Forest Gump?

No way a straight red. Fucking disgusted by how biased the refs in this league are.

Positives all round tbh. I can see McLaren's approach is making us hard to beat first then the attacking part will come. Hopefully come the Jan window we'll be in a decent position, then strengthen key areas. But to get that defence from last season somewhat organised is already a great achievement.

Any chance you get cisse just belt it.

That ref needs a boot in the face.

Need to really push the last five.

C'mon!

Cisse likes scoring against Czech.

Did himself no favours getting that yellow in his first match. The cunt brigade that is premier refs have marked him from the off.
