You've done absolutely nothing to convince anyone that you've made any sense mind. Made a few weird metaphors and completely misunderstood Yorkie's point. So fair play, we'll see you at the next one. We came straight back up both times and the mood was great last time because of Rafa. The less capable we look of coming up and the more investment needed to do so would make a sale more likely though I would imagine. Maybe not. I'm not even saying I want it to happen like, it would be horrible, but in 10 years time I can realistically see us all wishing it had happened. Just like looking back to 2010 now I wish we hadn't come straight back up*. *Rafa being here sort of suppresses that though.

It's madness to think we're not risking the clubs future in any case. He's been here a decade and completely failed at every turn. In another 10 years there's nothing to suggest we'll be any better. You cannot act as though the route we're currently on doesn't realistically have a really shitty ending - I'd say it's probable if Rafa goes. That's where the opinion of us being better off staying down until he goes comes from. It's a risk aye but potentially a necessary one. Even if you disagree I cannot see how you're struggling so much to grasp why anyone would think it's a better option.

You've just completely ignored all logic from the opposing argument and turned it into "we want to spite Mike Ashley" because of a throwaway comment Yorkie made. I'm nor sure what I'd want tbh but the overarching point is to drop to rebuild. Not to drop so we can laugh at Ashley losing money.

How is it fantasist bullshit? I mean if you'd read the post you'd have noticed I never made any absolute statements. That would have been daft as I'm not a fucking oracle. Statistically I think it's fair enough to assume we'd be better off in the longrun (if rafa were to walk) if we get relegated this season and stay down until Mike leaves. Statistically I also think it;s fair enough to assume that if we stay up and mike remains that we'll be relegated anyway within 5 years. You're not 'part of the problem' because you don't want us to lose, nobody would say that ffs.

I dunno why the phoenix analogy is hard to get like. We've been pointless for nearly 10 years under Ashley and if he fucks Rafa off we'll continue to be pointless under him. Relegation and stagnation in the lower leagues would likely lead to a quicker exit of Mike than staying up so people would prefer we were relegated. The odds are we'd be better off in 5 years time than if we stay up and Mike stays.

As if Rafa wouldn't have just told him to fuck off

The cunt Simon Bird seems to have fully embraced his artistic licence with that article like.

Are Ajax thick?

Ramsey in Perez' role would make my balls tingle.

LADbrokes

It's obviously a possibility he'll leave but I doubt Rafa has some weird moral code that will lead him to the hammers like.

Kane was carded so they wouldn't have had an effect either way tbh. I don't have an issue with MOTD showing this but the way Liniker and especially Neville went on about it whilst showing a few inconclusive angles was irritating. Shearer kept his mouth shut and he's been quick to blast Mitrovic in the past.

Huddersfield are ball hoggers who press well and like to play high up the pitch, we restricted them well and they only really had 1 or 2 genuine chances on goal. Our problem was that when we did have the ball we gave it away senselessly, granted Huddersfield were a lot sharper than West Ham were today but it was still very bad on our part. We looked shaken. We rarely put a foot wrong today.

We played shit last week and consistently gave the ball away needlessly, we didn't play shit this week and were very incisive. Due to the quality of players we have the season will probably be a mixed bag of those 2 extremes and whatever lies between - as last season was. Changing to 4-4-2 won't do anything.

Cannot believe a bloke being payed money to give his opinions on football is suggesting we should play Christian Atsu up front like, fucking hell

Caught Lanzini with an elbow/forearm when challenging for the ball. Debatable whether or not it was intentional imo but it being Mitrovic obviously swings it more to 'he probably meant it' which is his own fault really. It'll be a definite 3 game ban like.

In any case, he'll be banned for 3 games and that's our 2 legit psychos suspended within the first 3 games. Benitez won't be happy with them at all like. EDIT: What Kaka says, aye.

Don't think it was on MOTD but a short while after the incident he gestured towards Mitrovic basically saying 'what the fuck you doing?' He definitely got clattered.

But aye I'm sure a media witch hunt by prominent figures won't have any bearing on it at all. The FA's history of impartial and fair bias precedes them.

Do you not think the FA don't make decisions based on external factors like?

Slowing down incidents is such a daft idea tbh.

Not really like. In real time it just looks like he's expecting a collision and prepping for it. It's hardly some forearm smash Neville's trying to make it out as.

Phil Neville is a fucking weasel like. "OH HE'S IN BIG TROUBLE" aye he is now you little grass.

That was fuck all like. 3 game ban then.

Could have one of his mates sitting on the roof with a sniper. It's frightening to think about.
