Eddie always finds a polite way of not answering a question he can’t be bothered with…

Indeed. And you feel super confident about us at home against anyone playing like this. It’s mad how it can all turn like. Before Boxing Day we were 9 points behind Chelsea with a run of: Villa (h) Man Utd (a) Spurs (a) Whereas they had: Fulham (h) Ipswich (a) Palace (a) Now we’re 1 point behind behind them 🤯

They came straight back up after the match.

Went ahead of Andy Cole today.

Would be better if he’d just wear some make-up… Seriously though, do all these YouTubers just spend their time making completely OTT reactions for the engagement? Is that the whole point?

Hope seemed to think Trippier would come in for this for his experience, which you could see. Obviously questionable whether it’s sensible to start Botman so soon again. Other than that I think Eddie will be loathe to ‘rest’ anyone, especially after what happened the last time he did that at Brentford.

Having said that, if they deem he is good to go, happy fucking days. Hope he smashes that prick Havertz.

Got to be careful with his hamstrings, calves and what not. Not playing competitively for 9 months and then trying to do two extremely intensive matches in 4 days is a hell of an ask.

Jealous of anyone that was there today. Those type of wins are the best away wins in my book. It’s class winning 4-0 and having a nice sing song and what not, but when you’ve got that jeopardy of hanging on and you finally make it, you can’t beat it.

It’s bollocks man. You can’t just lump the ball at someone’s arm from a yard away and get a free-kick.

Fantastic to have him back. Despite how important Arsenal is, not sure how wise it would be to ask him to start again on Tuesday?

Their back five is honking.

It’s who they are mate.

Watching Hope’s latest video he seems surprisingly bullish about our interest in Dibling.

No idea whether legit

He played in that daft friendly in Australia I think?

26 in a few days and played 14 games for Viborg and 5 for Orlando City.

Assume they have at least 1 CB then…

If those two CB’s are out I reckon it would be Bissouma and some kid that’s never played before.

I think what makes the Burton stand out is that all of the others are lest subjective to some degree, I mean, aye, all blatantly wrong, but for every foul/handball decision you have to interpret what you see and then make a decision. But that night against Burton he just didn’t know the rules, or least forgot them.

Perhaps. But it’s not like it’s Rashford or someone like that where it’s a waste of time even considering it.

Seems he’s ’only’ on £150k p/w. So large, but not prohibitively so, if there was any interest and/or chance of getting him.

Yeah, they aren’t handicapped in an attacking sense. But they’re definitely struggling defensively.
