Can only think Gallagher would be a Longstaff upgrade without losing the home grown talent number.

The fact they did the same with Rice last year is probably why they feel so entitled. 

It'll take the GDP of a small country to even turn our heads

The temerity of Arsenal fans is unmatched, just going to casually buy Isak for £80-100m no questions asked

Am I the only one that doesn't care what City win? Could have done with the coefficient as a safety net.

What an absolutely outstanding weekend of football

For fucks sake Arsenal. You had one fucking job. Bottling cunts. 

 

Ah well, had dreams of CL again for 24 hours

Get ahead of Spurs, hope for a coefficient placing, the dream is still alive.

Liverpool - Detestable manager and players, some of the most entitled and deluded supporters

Arsenal - Detestable manager, don't mind the players, supporters are almost as bad as Liverpool supporters now.

City - I actually quite like Pep, don't really hate the players, the supporters even online seem quite level headed 🤷‍♂️

Whilst it’s funny they lost you can’t dismiss them from the title just yet, only 2 points behind with 6 games left. 

City won't drop another point now, they're in their stride.

Definitely think there's an outside chance we catch one or even both, I'll take any kind of European football after the season we had but if we actually did this it would be completely insane. 

This is what I expected us to do at their place given their high line but we were decimated and Gordon was struggling for any pace that day, glad all that gloating came back on them today.

One goal closer lads. Five more years and we’ve got you.

Sorry, not sorry Leffe, feelsbad for you but happy with the emphatic win

That was a complete performance, we totally had their number today, best we've played in a long time

Inevitably dropped deep as we're gassed, could do with Livramento/Hall just for the last 15 to bring on fresh legs.

We’re going to tire now. Not much to bring on.

I think we've done enough to see the game out.

Still think we need a 3rd to sew this tie up as we will get leggy later on and our bench is horrific. Having said that Howe has the tactics perfect we've soaked up any pressure and hit them fast on the break. Should be 3 or 4 to the good but probably our best football since the first few games last year.

Expect lots of Arsenal whinging in the media over the next few months

RIP Joe 🖤🤍

Now for a Sheffield United win to top off a great weekend!

First half is one to forget, really slow start, messy and lacking any quality from anyone. The Dubz "iniury" was perfectly timed and seemed to swing the game.

I thiugh Burn at LCB has been faultless and dare I say his partnership with Schar looks better than that with Botman for the last few months.

Willock was poor before he limped off and the change for Anderson was a positive one, he's really starting to look class and made a big difference today.

Gordon was his usual menace today causing them all kinds of problems once we settled and Bruno scoring a goal like that on his 100th appearance was just perfect.

1 point behind Man Utd and West Ham with a game in hand on the latter and a massive GD advantage on both is insane when you put this season into context. It makes me want to vomit but hopefully Liverpool do us a huge favour tomorrow.

Chalk that off you prick!

Haven’t been able to watch or listen. What’s happened to Willock?

No need to brag

How is this still 0-0?  we're getting absolutely bummed here

It's sad that it's taken the Everton/Forest/Leicester farces to wake up the neutrals as to how ridiculous the PSR rules are. The criticisms made by Newcastle fans and many others have been valid and ignored by many until the shit has actually hit the fan. It's been laid bare just how unfit for purpose these restrictions have been and how they've been specifically geared towards preventing any challenge. It's now clear the rules need to be completely re-written in order to allow ambition AND support clubs from dodgy owners. It's not just about stamping our feet and wanting to spend billions immediately, it's got to protect clubs from shit owners using clubs as a cashpoint, there has to be that balance  

Made us out to be the bogey man while the real bogey men hid behind their nefarious rules. Got the whole league believing their crap until it came knocking at their door.

Would seem a shame to shift Gordon wide right, but can't think of any other way to get him and Barnes in the team. 

 

Moving one of your best performing players to another position should be a big no.

I quite like the idea, i think Gordon will probably drift across both sides but less cutting in for the shot and more early crosses can't be a bad thing.

It looks like related party transactions may be abolished also as more and more clubs realise what they've signed up for.

Mentions at the bottom of the article that there has been a seismic shift in power from the traditional "Big 6" to a big 7 as we have steamrolled our way into the conversation, this is what we've been waiting for.
