  1. Or just don't do it when the kids are in the other room. It's not about opening the door (this is my first time this thread since he was sold). Maybe if you kept it quiet people wouldn't have to knock on it and tell you to shut up. And really only reason to open this thread is because it leaks to other threads and this gets constantly bumped. Are there ways to pin threads to the bottom instead of the top?
  2. Unpopular opinion: the club willing to bid $60 for Olise and $65m for Guehi, and then not signing anyone that is not them is actually a good sign. It hand they are being disciplined. They have a plan and they know what they are trying to do. The last thing I want from the club is to get someone because there are a bunch of crying bed wetters clamoring for any signing. If they have a second choice then great. But I don't want them just signing Chiesa (JFC please stop) or some other stop gag CB just because "it's a disaster if we don't sign anyone". I'm totally satisfied if they don't sign anyone and come back in January. And I'll be ecstatic if they do sign someone they rate in this window. But the bitching about lack of signings is unbearable.
  3. But this thread is the equivalent of them doing it in the living room. I would prefer if they just didn't. This thread gives you brain cancer.
  4. I can't get it to work either. Is there a different one?
  5. If you like that, you may like this from the hometown semi pro team.
  6. Except there is no way villa get as bad of a draw as we did. And definitely not the kind of domestic cup draws we did. Eddie really played in hard mode this year and made a real go of it.
  7. They have? I must have missed that. Nobody is paying that and they know it. They will let him walk on a free next year then.
  8. I'm not sure I'm convinced myself but I'm a little surprised nobody has mentioned Nketiah as a possible #2/3 behind Isak if Wilson goes. He is on his last year at arsenal and no plans to renew. Should be cheap and low wages. His other alternatives are to go to a mid table team and no chance to win anything. I'm on the camp that Wilson has to go, unfortunately. It is the most financially responsible thing to do and what allows us to keep other assets. I reckon we can get 15-20m for him from a mid table. Bournemouth? Brentford? One of the promoted sides?

    Dan Burn

    And this is the average fan... No idea how it all works. Just spewing whatever bullshit they see on tiktok. Not related. I don't even care if he is local or not, but those local should have a little more patience for him. I never wanted him at lb tbh, but fair play to him he showed up and did a job. Did a great job for the longest time. Until injuries changed the team and he was out in a difficult spot. But even then, he was the better fit for our system. He had a dip in form after playing too many games and more injuries creating more space behind (dubrabka was never the answer and should have stayed at man reds). Yet, he does more good than bad. If you replay all the goals given this season, I'll bet you $20 that there were as many or more goals with trippier at fault (and I love trips). People fail to recognize his defense and just want him to bomb forward and give him stick because that's not his game. When his form dipped they couldn't wait to pull the knives and blame him. Tl;Dr you and your kind of "fan" can fuck right off

    Dan Burn

    Our dog shit midfield has been the same dog shit defensively the whole time burn was getting stick

    Where are all the Burn haters now? Embarrassing how the fan base has behaved towards him and Howe. Just goes to show how little the fan base understands about tactics. I love livra but he is not the solution at lb. Can deputize but not permanently yet, if you have trippier on the other side going forward. I'd argue that tripps shit run of form was worse and more devastating than Burns, but nobody was calling for him to get dropped the way people have called for Burn.
  12. Embarrassing performance from the home fans... We've only heard the away fans all game
  13. I like Wilson but Isak brings so much more to linking play
  14. Peter Dillon's on 36th St. https://instagram.com/peterdillons36?igshid=MmU2YjMzNjRlOQ== https://www.peterdillons.com/ I'll prob be there
  15. Fulham win gets them to 6pts. We are at 5. A tie, gets Chelsea to 5 as well. Not sure what the tie breaker is, im guessing goals scored and Chelsea would get it.
  16. Early reactions: Undeserved for us but class from Almiron. He has looked sharp. I think first or second play of the game, he fooled Cucurella by going to the end line and using his right foot. Hopefully we see more of that. I thought our lack of pace at the back showed - I am not sure what Botman was upset about, he just missed it. Before going out, Schar was also a step behind the Chelsea front. Miley again looking like he belongs, im fucking ecstatic for him. Isak... not up to snuff. Its a preseason game so idgaf, but does not look good. Gordon did well. Tonali average. Joelinton got better as the game got going. I am excited to see Murphy.
  17. Was stuck in meetings. Just tried it and was easy fast and painless. I saw @AyeDubbleYoo mention going for both local and intl. Not a bad idea if its for access to tickets. On the local membership you'd have to make travel arrangements on short notice ($$$). But I do like it. I am tempted to sign up my children as well. I am very curious how intl access to tickets will be handled. If you ask me, they should make UCL away tickets only available to Intl. We are already having to travel
  18. Yeah this is still unavailable
  19. Oh great. It's now the hate for Burn taken out on Targett. Because don't you know? If Targett was any good, he would have taken rubbish Burn spot in the best defense in the league last year... Hence why we need a left back. Even though the drop from burn to Targett is not nearly as significant as to the drop from Tripper to whoever is on the bench that day (at least until we get Livramento). Season can't start soon enough...
  20. Its the opposite actually. Ask the PGA how that worked out. For those that dont know the background. PIF just wanted to be involved, get some recognition (and btw thats all they want, respect. Money they already have). PGA told them to fuck off. Several times. PIF went and created LIV and now they own their ass - its an embarrassment how poorly it was managed. if UEFA is presented with a viable option to include PIF, share in the money, and keep them as minority players then they should do it. Because if PIF gets told to fuck off they will find a way to destroy UEFA or take it over.
  21. Fútbol is a more south American sport. They are not catering to that group, and that group tends to consume their sports in English mostly. As opposed to south Americans who consume fútbol in Spanish. If you are Latin or Hispanic, or a Miami resident, you would know that. You know how many leagues are broadcast in Spanish speaking channels vs English speaking? How many baseball, basketball, etc leagues are broadcast in Spanish? This is not California. Anyone that lives in the USA and pays attention, knows that Spanish sources in California are different than Florida, which are different than Texas, which are different than the northeast. It's not a monolith. And those that follow fútbol, soccer, or whatever you want to call it, consume it in Spanish.
  22. Its the same on your end. Season before that he only started 17. and Only 23 his first season. Which one is the outlier? The way some posters talk about ASM is as if we are selling Shearer. I have nothing against ASM, and he is fine. But it is the ASM fan boys that actually make me want to sell him - maybe they will follow him to his new team. I am convinced if you put together a Venn diagram of ASM fans, Gordon haters, Miggy downers, and Barnes doubters. You'd end up with a perfect circle.
