Hmmm, not sure I'd rate our chances of the league ahead of the CL. We have a very reasonable run to the final imo. Close out BL at home, beat...

Why do you want the winners to qualify for the CL, GG? I've always hated that rule. Quality is not determined by a knockout competition, it is...

The presence of Newcastle and Spurs in the CL says much more about the CL qualification process than it does about the quality of the PL imo.

Terrible. Eze and Zubi bang average. Gabi, Rice and Gok aren't good enough to make up for two average performances and a terrible performance around...

Hard to argue that it isn't too early to appoint him the next whoever. I would point out however that he is already a better player than Nwaneri...

Yeah, I almost posted that as well :-)

:hehe: If P was following AWIMB traditions he would have issued a red warning before he posted that :-)

Lionel? :-)

More Gascoigne than Grealish but yes, there are parts of both of them. He's Odegaard's replacement, and he will be significantly better than Ode...

True, and you could accuse me of being overly optimistic, but I can't remember a player who looked as nailed on a he does for superstardom. ...

The boy Dowman really does look like he will be ready for first team football next year, shame he can't play on the left

Feels like clickbait nonsense to me if for no other reason than that we don't know how this season will play out. You think if we win the CL we...

The gift that keeps on giving :nod:

I don't think we've disagreed or agreed on anything in this exchange :-)

They had a South American looking chap, Gomez? Every time I looked he seemed to be kicking someone and then denying it. Not that that's negative...

I was bored when Liverpool and Man City came to Emirates and sat back defending for most of the game. Was that our fault as well? Are we negative...

What pisses me off is that the narrative in the media this morning makes it seem like we play this way every time. We just beat Leeds 4-0 away,...

I?m taking credit for tonight, Pedro! Looked the football gods straight in the face and defied them. wd WES :-)

I?m not so sure, I Football is different now, and kind of sh1t. For everyone. Everyone being sh1t suggests a fundamental problem beyond any...

To make your night even worse, Peter :-)

Imagine if we were being held to a draw at home to Forest

The 8 cheapest defenders he could find, 12 midget midfielders and three strikers from the French league that were willing to play for us?

Scoring from them doesn't bother me in the slightest, certainly not when we do it, anyway. I do agree that the holding/mauling/tackling at corners...

I wouldn?t say we were lucky, 7. Chelsea were sh1t as well. Just disappointed we didn?t push on from the Spurs performance and play really well.

He looked bad after that sprint and terrible backpass

I thought this game was crucial, beat the filth away and Chelsea at home and we could really be in with a chance So I expected a lot more

Nope :-) but it?s been dire, 7 Hard to watch
