The Prophet

Didn't need an essay from the Athletic to tell us that (not a dig at you, just Waugh being Waugh).

Arsenal when they take the lead...

...again, blatant cheating from Eze.

Ah great, the return of the gnocchi nonce.

I think that's the crux of it and relatively widely accepted tbf.

It's one of the reasons I've lost patience with football tbh. Players being rewarded for unsportsman like actions such as deliberately deceiving the referee. Makes it all the more galling fans have bought into grown men hoying themselves to the ground being a penalty. I wince when Gordon does it for our lot. It's just a bit shit.

The back slapping for blatant cheating man, fuck off.

Everything that's wrong with the game from Ally here...

Yeah, fair.

Didn't realise Kudus was refusing surgery on his injury too.

I don't think anyone would ever wants us to actively lose, but the absolute glee some take in getting stuck into the manager, the players and fellow fans after defeat is undeniable.

Howay Atleti!

There's a whole lot of middle ground between thinking everything is alright and thinking we'll go down mind.

More like Urgh-garte.

Surely top clubs priorities having the best man for the job over ruthlessness?

For all intensive purposes, we're already in the post-season.

This is where I'm at. I'm in the stay camp, but I completely understand the view it might be best to part ways.

It's probably more a point scoring thing. There's a small minority who've stuck the boot in whenever Howe has hit a rough spell, but they've been made to look very daft. With the wheels coming off this sesson it's finally party time and they're evidently revelling in it. A large majority of normal fans would love him to turn it around though.

Atleti are quite entertaining to watch these days, their reputation precedes them in that regard. Can never underestimate Arsenal's ability to suck the fun out of a game though.

66s for any of those that are truly concerned and fancy giving some cash to the bookies.

I remember that Southampton game. There was lots of twitching in the stands, but we never looked anything but comfortable. Can't recall the Brighton second half, other than the goals.

Not sure I'd say that like. Wouldn't like to call which way this one is going.

Monthly reminder that the handball law in Europe is the pits.

Kvar might be my favourite player going at the moment. I think I'd vomit if he went to Arsenal.

Two I think, not that it's much better. Giles had our pants down.
