  1. I like the Bruno stats but you have to remember he came on against an Everton side who were physically and mentally gone.
  2. He’s played like 2 games I don’t think anyone can judge him yet.
  3. Fast becoming one of my favourite players. Not because he is necessarily the most technically gifted but he has a lot heart on the pitch and will run through a brick wall for Howe. Just makes you want to see him do well.
  4. To be fair Wood’s turn in the box after Big Joe kicked the ball in his own face was class
  5. Alli, VBD and DCL on the bench for Everton as well
  6. Haven’t we lost from a winning position like 8-10 times? I think people underestimate our main weakness is our shite defence which has been strengthened considerably. Also Howe always goes on about mentality. If you notice all the players we have bought are fighters. Introducing 5 new fighters into the team will be huge.
  7. It’s been our best window in like 10 years and people still complain lol. God help out board
  8. So it looks like the final transfer in the pipeline is Lingard?
  9. Ramsey or Origi would really add to the squad and doable to the timeframe.
  10. Wouldn’t surprise me if this was all a ruse to scare Man U into loaning his Lingaard.
  11. With Ekitike and Lingaard in the balance, we should be going all out for Origi. No time to waste.
  12. Looks like Dummett but he’s actually good on the ball
  13. Daniel Langley. The regular Keeper for the U23 is not in the squad tonight. Gillespie and Langley tomorrow?
  14. Watched a few Arsenal games this year. Nketiah is actually an awful footballer but can pouch the odd goal. He makes Arsenal a lot worse when he plays as he can’t do any other work. On Wood- I like it. This is a pragmatic approach. We just need do what we need to do to stay up, even if it’s scrapping up by 1 point.
  15. Surely there has to be big boycott for Arsenal now, I can’t fathom how a fan can use mental gymnastics into kidding themselves that they are not destroying the by attending. Any fan attending should be shamed, just like picket lines on strikes. Sad but needs to be done.
  16. Rode by the protests. Looked about 20 people with a banner and then passers by coming out to see what was going on.
  17. Which modern day player is closest to in terms of type of player to Solano? I’m struggle quite a bit with this.
  18. You do know how Chelsea scored their goals right? The tactics worked ffs, not Rafa's fault the ref is shite/bent. But that’s exactly my point, if your under that pressure for so long, someone will make a mistake. They aren’t robots. If park the bus was effective a lot more teams would just use that every time. No one did, OK maybe for the 2nd goal but that was after we switched. The 1st goal was a shite decision and a mistake by a shite ref, not any of our players or tactics. Tackling the player in a scissor motion in the box was definitely a mistake like. Even the ref may make a mistake. It’s why pure park the bus is stupid for me. This result was always going to happen, as soon as I seen the line up and tactics.

The issue is out of 5-6 defenders someone will make a mistake at some point, so unless you have the likes Maldini in defence, gifting the other team 90% possession will rarely work.
  20. I just don’t see how a tactic of giving one of the best teams in the world 90% Poseidon for 90 minutes can work. Have we ever actually got anything from parking the bus? I think it’s a massively overrated tactic.
  21. My 2 cents is I think Rafa got the tactics wrong today. City I can understand, but Chelsea are a level below them. To gift a team 80-90% possession for 90 minutes, I don’t see how you can not concede.
