  1. Genuinely interested, what has Howe done that O'Neil has that ranks him higher? Howe got Bournemouth from League 2 to keeping them in the league for 5 years, and then got a team from Relegation certainties to Champions League in a season and a half. O'Neil has two mid-tables finishes.
  2. Arteta has been class I'm not denying that, but I'm basing Emery as higher due to his career to date, Emery has won multiple European trophies, and have had success at multiple clubs. As good as Arteta has been, he's only won the FA Cup in his managerial career to date, and his clubs have fallen short over the last two seasons, that said I do think Arteta (along with Alonso) will be the best in class of the next generation of manager.
  3. Based on my own personal biases this is the list imo: Pep Guardiola Jurgen Klopp Unai Emery Mikel Arteta Mauricio Pochettino Eddie Howe Roberto De Zerbi Ange Postecoglou Erik Ten Hag David Moyes Marco Silva Thomas Frank Sean Dyche Gary O’Neil Andoni Iraola Rob Edwards Nuno Espírito Santo Vincent Kompany Oliver Glasner (no idea about him) Chris Wilder
  4. Huge result and comeback that, the stuff of champions

    Ah, so you're changing the goal posts to fit your argument, got it.

    Basically, think the set-up was pretty solid. Other then that one Haaland one on one, I can't really remember them having a "clear cut" chance. Even their two goal, Dubravka saves them if not for unlucky deflections.
  8. Given I thought we where going to be utterly pumped, I think we did better then i was expecting, and I feel like where weren't bad that overall, we weren't amazing by any stretch, but we also weren't horrendously bad. Thought, for the most part we defended well, and limited them, and it was two utter shite deflections that undone us. Also think that was the best we've been in possession for a long while, and that every player were dedicated to the game plan. Ultimately we came up against the beat team in the world on their own patch, and we didn't disgrace ourselves.
  9. Interesting time to make this point when we've literally just changed everything from the way we setup against Chelsea.
  10. I feel like we actually werent that bad? The game plan hasn't been horrendous, and I can't really remember them having a clear cut chances, with us arguably having the best chance of the game and they just scored two utter flukey goals (Fuck knows what Botman was doing for their second). Man City have obviously been really good in possession, and "dominated" the game, but it's not like they've carved us open time and again. Frustrating game.
  11. I'd imagine we'll be playing Burn at LWB so when we are on the attack he can stick back and we'll have 4 players at the back in possession, in theory meaning there will be less space for Man City to operate in in transition.
  12. Sounds like Music has put in a man of the match performance for Burnley today, and he was goalkeeper of the season in the Championship last season. Makes it more bizarre that Kompany kept going going with a regen that was clearly not good enough for this level yet.
