I was away at the weekend so missed the incident with the fan at Leeds. Seems bloody shocking that like. Do we know if it was one of our supporters or a Leeds fan? 

Why would it have been one of our supporters? :lol:

Because you get idiots all across the board. I assume from the way you phrased your question response that it was a Leeds fan.

Fully deserved this, but it will probably go to pep. 

Man City were expected to win the league- it's criminal really if Eddie doesn't win

If the award is given based on their achievements relative to the context and expectations at the beginning of the season, it should go to Arteta or Howe imo. 

 

But there's a good case for all of them aside from Silva, probably. Fulham have done well but I wouldn't say there's anything especially remarkable about their achievements this season. Won 15, lost 15, safe and secure, which is good for a promoted side, but not enough to win the award. 

 

Emery has obviously done a hell of a job converting Villa from relegation candidates into European candidates, and their from in that spell of ten games was phenomenal, but I don't think you can give him the award based on that, just as you couldn't for Howe last season. 

 

Pep's maybe the best in the league but he has the most resources at his disposal of anyone and I think that's a valid caveat whenever this conversation comes up. Their only challenger this season has been a very young Arsenal team who, despite having a phenomenal year, were inevitably not going to be strong or experienced enough to stop Superficial FC. 

 

De Zerbi has deserved the adulation he's received but if we get Champions League I fail to see how he's bettered Howe's achievements. If we don't, it's Arteta's regardless imo.

Man City won the league last year, and were expected to do the same again.

 

Arsenal finished in the top 6, with a good foundation to build on.

 

Newcastle finished in the bottom half, with a squad deemed to be full of championship players.

 

I struggle to come to any other conclusion but the correct one.

Eh? We didn’t finish in the bottom half did we?

 

sorry- just checked. So we did. Howe out

He’s good, like. Not many have pressed Brighton and made them look like mugs. Especially from goal kicks we had them sussed.

 

We were so good tactically. Trippier rarely went beyond halfway today for the first time all season and it was a decision that really worked.
