  1. Aren't you taking a big part of his game away if you stop that though? He's normally brilliant at being able to turn or wriggle away from challenges and opponents deep in our half and setting us away. He's going to lose it on occasions, same way a goalkeeper will pass it straight to the forward (see Raya against us in the Carabao Semi for example) occasionally, but the upside of that side of their game more than makes up for the times they'll lose it.
  2. Was gutted when we lost to Brighton last season, but no guarantees we win the Carabao or qualify for the CL with those extra few games and competition distracting us. Think we're in a better place to prioritise a bit this year.
  3. Glasner had even said Munoz had an injury yet he was still the one whose name got wrongly bandied about.
  4. Saying that though, look how it worked out when another Dutch manager took on a club legend.
  5. It wasn't the eScousers who booed Newcastle off the pitch a few years ago for having the audacity to try to protect a point there. The lot of them are cunts.
  6. Wolves an example of what 1-2 years of selling poorly and signing poorer can do. This could happen to any of that mid-table cluster that looks safe and threatening Europe now within a couple of years.
  7. That first time cross from the right was beautiful.
  8. https://www.readytogo.net/smb/threads/brighton-fan-in-peace.1669051/ Seagull in Peace. That doesn't end well.
  9. They've got an argument for Roefs based on how he's played first 15 games. That's it.
  10. We're the delewded ones though.
  11. Willock out in January if we get him?
  12. Botman to Liverpool for £40m. Guehi to Newcastle on a Free.
  13. https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/oliver-glasner-confirms-reason-for-daniel-munoz-absence-as-crystal-palace-face-fulham-without-impressive-right-back/blt00c28938b3cc9ae0
  14. Used to captain our u18s. Mint header
  15. Don't see issue with the handball.
  16. This season has been my favourite so far. Nowt between lower mid-table and top 5, and now nowt between upper mid-table and relegation if West Ham win here. Anything could happen.
  17. Didn't he nearly score direct from a corner v Spurs too?
  18. Mad that we were a Wissa, Woltemade or Isak from howking them on the first day.
  19. You just know Arteta would take a 0-0 and run, here. They're going to be the most boring league winners in PL history if they win it.
  20. I read this a lot but there was no "fighting for the shirt". He had a strong second half of the season when Howe first arrived, did nothing wrong, then Pope replaced him. It was the right decision and like you say, "that's football", but this line that he should have fought for a spot he was never winning just doesn't wash.
  21. Scotland draw is very 1990 & 1998 combined.
