The Big Hoss. Happy for him. But fuck I can’t stand Madrid. Getting worse than City every year in the prem.

These cunts always find a way in the CL. Easy in hindsight. But the subs from Tuchel look even worse now.

Agree with the last two posts. The ones that were getting fully stuck into Howe when we were doing shit. Now don’t seem to post much now we’re doing well again. Or only come up with thinly veiled digs at him. Whilst trying to find any reason to dig him out and loads of hypothetical reasons why the club might replace him. If we fail to finish 6th or 7th now. Then it would be really disappointing, granted. As we’ve got ourselves in such a great position. But considering plenty would have taken top 6-7 this season. All things considered, whilst not being perfect. Howe has done an outrageous job. I genuinely think if we finish 6th. Then factoring everything in. It’s arguably a better season than the one before.

What a hit a hit, son. What. A. Hit!

Just regularly passing it straight off for a goal kick instead of running with it

Not looked at it in much detail. But seems mad for them to sack Rosenoir and most Hull fans on Twitter seemed against him getting the boot.

Got a fair few mates who support Cambridge. He started really well and then went on some horrendous runs and was lucky not to get relegated. I don’t think they have much dough, mind and they all still like the bloke.

Joelinton and Tonali were less than enthusiastic. Pope and Anderson were loving life

Gianmartin Donnabravka. Glued to his line that cunt. Which is mad, as he’s an absolute giant.

Our result at Selhurst Park looks half decent now

Oof. Not good. We’ll struggle without him. As he brings a lot to our defence and also attacks with how he’ll play out and his love of diagonals that get us up the pitch.

Can I just shock you?! I like Ange.

Keeper should still save that.

I don’t mind Pochettino. But fuck me. There was a lot of waffle from the commentator and Neville there. Saying how well he’s done tonight with the ‘resources’ he had available. Fair enough they had injuries. But how deep is their squad and how much is it worth? Then saying it’s unprecedented what he’s dealt with there and how well he’s done considering…..?! I know Chelsea seem like a basket case of a club. But honestly, man. Not having that at all.

Sounds like maybe not as close as first thought. More like hoping to feature in the last few games as opposed to expected to be involved in the last 5. Almost seems pointless bringing him back for 2-3 games now. Although it would be great to have him for Old Trafford and hoof ball Brentford.

Great signing if we manage this. Been keen on him for quite a while. But I just assumed he would go to Liverpool or Spurs once it seemed like they were interested.

Probably some more twists and turns. Should have hung on against Hull. Then should have nicked it 4-3 at the end. Would have been done and dusted. Hope they get promoted.

Same feelings as you. My old man supports them, quite a few family and some good friends are all Arsenal fans. Almost always played great stuff and I’ve even been to the Emirates in the home end a good few times with mates. Quality away day on the beers and generally been fond of them over the years. When they were successful under Wenger and the not so good stuff after he left. But since Arteta and their fans weird carry on since he’s been there. I just can’t abide them. City represent a lot that is wrong with football. Yet I just shrug when they win it and it doesn’t feel as bad for various reasons.

Watching Raya yesterday. I know he made a massive blunder for the first Spurs goal. But he relieved so much pressure coming to claim crosses. Must have come and caught 6-7 when Spurs were starting to assert some real pressure. Compare and contrast to Vicario at the other end who is rooted to his line, in a similar style to Dubravka. Two goals conceded where Vicario is partly to blame. It feels like it is the same a lot of the time when watching NUFC. It’s more noticeable now. Because we had one of the most proactive keepers in the league beforehand. When it comes to claiming high balls and coming off his line/out his box. He’s been replaced by one of the worst. The more I think about it. The more I think a backup or competition for Pope is required. Despite the glaring weaknesses elsewhere.

So so bad on corners. Surprised we only scored 1 of our 16. Vicario makes Dubravka look brave.

Fucking sick of VAR and offsides now.

Not seen yesterday other than highlights. So not fair to comment on that particular performance. But the more I see him. The more I continue to think he is positionless. Not quick enough out wide or seeming like he’ll contribute with many goals or assists. Seems to drift out of games in the middle. Often wants too many touches and off the ball gets caught out knowing when to go tight or drop off. Sounds massively harsh. As he is still young and inexperienced. His attitude and work rate are spot on and he always wants to get on the ball. He’s better with it to feet than a lot of the current squad. Which is another issue. He’s rarely had the luxury of playing with our better players when we’re at full strength and functioning at our highest level.

Few Liverpool supporting mates waxing lyrical about him yesterday. Saying they feel like they’d be a lot closer in the title race if they had someone as good as him. Yet acknowledged they wouldn’t be able to afford him. Two Arsenal supporting mates still seem to think they’re getting him in the summer. A bit like most of their fanbase on Twitter. Like most have said. Who in the current market could realistically afford him?

The most real life FIFA game I’ve ever watched, I reckon.
