Get out of the club you snake

That’s fair

I’m not trying to disguise the fact we’re awful at the moment. We are. And we have been poor for large stretches this season. However, if Howe’s here next season and we have a good transfer window we’ll be in Europe again in 27/28

No we won’t be in a relegation fight next season. Also, it’s a pretty absurd argument to say “if he doesn’t turn it around we’ll be in a relegation fight next season”. I was just thinking that if we bring someone new in and they don’t turn this around we’ll be in a relegation fight next season. It’s an absurd premise to include the logic for being relegated tied to the premise itself, resulting in the relegation outcome. You could say that about anything

I would say so yeah. I’d back him into next season until Christmas if we limped through the rest of this season. However, I’d like to see some proactive changes with Woltemade coming back into the side and Osula playing RW

Another trip to the bottle bank from Arteta. Needs to get himself a loyalty card

O’Reilly is ridiculously good. A complete player

Can’t believe this stupid fuck brought Martinelli on to change things and Gyokeres

Shows how corrupt the game is that. They will not make decisions against teams at the very top fighting for the league. They’ve clearly been told to not do anything there. Anyone else other than Liverpool and these two gets a red there

There was a ton more in that than Schar’s. Fucking weak as piss officiating

Gabriel off surely?

Saliba complaining to the ref after he fouls O’Reilly. They’re a fucking caricature of themselves this joke of an Arsenal side. Bunch of whiny cunts who can’t back it up

Been class watching Gabriel get his arse handed to him

Did Doku neck some pills after that goal?

He doesn’t lose his footing because he plays it too far in front of him. It’s both a bad pass and he loses his footing. Shut up Neville you daft cunt

Can someone get this fucking cunt out of a job. Drury that is. This match is mental. We’re going to see fuckloads of errors and chaos here

Ah wow, what a player

The fuck are Man City doing, look half asleep

Dead ball FC putting the dead into football as usual

Peter Drury edging himself to an on air dribble-heavy orgasm here

I’m also Howe in. However, I do wonder if he’s got the reserves in him to turn this around. Wonder if he’s completely burnt out. I think he can turn it around in the summer but I’m gutted about how Woltemade’s been used this season and I think Howe should shoulder a lot of the blame for that. I think he also needs to move away from viewing every single game as “what is my #1 team to get a result in this match”. Over the course of a season in Europe that’s not sustainable, it burns the players out either physically or mentally and it doesn’t help others to develop. This is a major fundamental area he’s not shown a lot of flexibility on. Lastly, I don’t have a lot of confidence in him being heavily involved in transfers. If he can have transfers largely taken out of his hands, start using the squad more (I recognise we need a deeper squad for that but he’s extremely loath to bring in development players into games) and move away from prioritising players whose strongest attributes are their running then I think he’s still the man for us. The huge caveat in that is how much he can change and the fact that he’s talked about wanting us to be a possession-based side but never managed to make us look good when we dominate possession. We’ve looked amazing in the past when we were an all-out pressing machine but have we seen us dominate football matches where we haven’t been press merchants?

Top trolling

This post is funny as fuck like

Aye, that’s very worrying if true. Hall was still one of our better performers today and Burn isn’t a LB. It’s hard to justify some of Howe’s decisions if he’s bringing off basically our best player

Hard to really sum up Osula. He isn’t great in aerial duels, he can’t really hold the ball up but he does try but he’s very good at playing off the shoulder and running in behind. He’s also pretty good at getting himself a yard to get a decent shot off. He’s come on a lot this season
