    I still believe they have the yellow for taking the shirt off because sponsors complained that they aren't seen at the most critical time (although in this instance they probably got better publicity as he held it up). On the other hand I don't really understand why taking the shirt off is seen as showing "passion" - disrespectful imo
    But when Torreira took his off after scoring in the NLD, I loved him.

    What happened to him, btw? He's no Dec, or even fit and on form Partey. But he was the DM we'd been missing since the days of Coq - imagine him with Santi and Ozil in that team. But Good Ebening played him as a no.10.

    He's in Turkey (Galatasaray) - bit of whining arse by all accounts. Had a season in Madrid and one in Florence - neither made the loan permanent. I liked him though

    I remember watching Galatasaray earlier in the season, essentially an entire team of PL misfits

    A few Series A misfits as well. Still good enough to beat United though

    Not sure he signed up to Arteta's 'values'.... I usually despise that term as it is often meaningless bull**** but Arteta seems to use it in the right way- he isn't going to tolerate tossers, troublemakers and lazy sods.

    I like it. Obviously I wouldn't work for him if he is going to be like that but it definitely seems to work

    I can be. Under the right circumstances

    I don't think Arteta's regime is much of a laugh. Or, much of my idea of what constitutes a laugh which is basically mucking about and being stupid instead of getting on with what you are supposed to be doing.

    Also, drinking

    Yup. Spot on. Auba was an amazing player. But we're so much better without that sort of ego. I like all these young players who buy into his programme. It's just replacing Jorgy that worries me. Top quality player with bags of experience who'll often be on the bench except for the hardest games. Where do we get someone happy with that role?
