  1. That's fair enough, but Ten Hag has had ridiculous injuries all season, could still finish top four and there's a chance of silverware as well. So why is Poch four above him? It's the inconsistency that grills me. I do think Poch is overrated mind.
  2. Aye I'm not sure what Bandit sees with Poch. Chelsea have been average at best lately.
  3. Look at Howe's resume. You're focusing on trophies, which is fair enough. Mourinho has trophies though, and I'd take Howe every day of the week over him. What Howe achieved last year and at Bournemouth was miracle work IMO. If Ten Hag was sacked and the fans were given a choice between Emery or Howe, 99/100 would pick Howe.
  4. What is this based on exactly? Why is Emery a level above Howe? And how on Gods green earth is Frank above Howe?
  5. Aye. I'd say those plans are well underway.
  6. There's no limit on what can be spent on infrastructure. Your owners are richer than God. They could bring you to City's level, facility wise, if they wanted to.
  7. Oh aye sorry. I was still in Bandit's mindset of judging them based on this season. I'd say it's harsh to have Arteta anywhere lower than top if we're basing it on now.
  8. I don't forget. I'll remind you when we win the treble.
  9. Onana has massively improved lately, so I'd be giving him a chance. It's his first season, and we've had 21 different centre back combinations. Likewise with Mount, he hasn't been shocking, he's just been injured. Is Tonali a shocking signing because he's been unavailable? Antony, fully agree despite what he did yesterday. Our defence is just missing one more quality centre back. The likelyhood is that we won't renew Varane (sadly) and will sign a top quality centre back in the summer. Dalot (who will probably be our player of the season), Martinez, new CB and Shaw is a quality defence IMO. There is a lot made of how bad we're supposed to be defensively, but we've the fourth best defence in the league and that's with nearly two of them injured at all times.
  10. Not you mate. You didn't watch the game.
  11. If you watched the game and had any modicum of sense, it was clear to see we were the better side. Liverpool probably had 80% of the possession from the 45th to the 70th minute, but created very little. We had the better chances by far. Liverpool scored 3. One rebound into an open net and two deflected shots. They were deservedly beaten.
  12. I would say Chelsea have a better squad than us, have had less injuries than us and are in worse form than us. Wouldn't you agree?
  13. Did you even have a shot against City? What game context? We were the better team. Liverpool controlled the game from the second half until the 70th minute or so without creating any major chances. They had an xG of 2.18 and 0.9 of that was Salah's open goal rebound. The first half hour we battered them and could have been out of sight. What were their clear cut chances? Whereas Rashford missed from 6 yards out. McTominay missed from 6 yards out. What about AWB taking the ball of McTominay in the 2nd minunte who was free from 6 yards out which doesn't count towards xG? If you don't think we were the much better side in that game, then all hope is lost.
  14. Man Utd (4.25) 4-3 (2.18) Liverpool. Two of their three goals were deflected. So yes, we did.
  15. You can tell how much people hate Arteta like. Arsenal are top. Best attack and the best defence. The football they've been playing has been quality.
