Interesting article on Emery’s tactics

[Sir C]

Relax A, I will write a detailed but enthralling summation of events including tactics when I get in from the game tomorrow night.

You're acting all cool but eyou're well excited really, aren't you?

Are you going to wear your Lacazette shirt?

My young fella has a Lacazette from last season and an Aubameyang from this season though I doubt I could squeeze into either, and I say that fully in the knowledge that I am not a fat fúcker.

I have never attended a pre-season friendly so I am unsure how to react and indeed how others will react. Does one celebrate a goal in any way?

I do expect that some will be taking it very seriously.

I believe that the usual procedure when attending ore-season friendlies is to start touching children inappropriately and then sign the sex offender's register for the rest of your life.

Hope this helps.

Surely taking young children to friendlies (cheaper, easier to get tickets, not so loud and boistorous, etc) is socially acceptable?

I'm half-considering taking mine to the Arsenal vs Real legends game, but I'm worried he might start asking annoying or difficult questions. Like why Wenger's not in the dugout.

Are you not worried that he’ll start developing opinions and you’ll end up telling him to get another hobby?

You will have to update us when he eventually finds out you've been lying to him. Perhaps it will be like him discovering that Santa is not real.

I went to an Emirates Cup game once. The lady sitting next to me was a Spurs fan but her kids were both Arsenal, and she said there was no way she was taking them to a real game.

Easy - "mythical creature - probably did not really exist"

You want to watch yourself, sw. You will be amongst a whole stadium full of freaks and weirdos.

Yes. A bunch of micks.

I think a moment of brief, polite applause is acceptable, as if an opposition batsman has executed an elegant cover drive for four.
