I was about to say the same. Well played, Bukayo :-\

Not really, no. It's as though they only invented football as the North's revenge for centuries of real and perceived social and economic...

Apparently Spinal Tap was based on The Sweet. Unpleasant business, mentioning it at home though as The Sweet is one of the wife's favourites lol :-\

That cannot happen because we are from London and the Arsenal are the most prominent southern upstarts, in their view. The vast majority of English...

The only reason they appear to like and respect Declan Rice is precisely because he is NOT captain so they actually have very little to do with him....

As I say, it's no issue for us as we already have a very suitable captain.

Trouble is, they're both from London. Premier League-winning captains tend to be northern and or foreign (you may have noticed that white,...

We need to be on that plane too :-\

Young Ethan perhaps lacks beef, yet he plays as if he believes he doesn't? One shudders to think if we'd be where we are if all those absentees...

Yes. The boss sounded relieved, delighted and very happy and proud to have negotiated the past few weeks in such good order, results-wise. It's on.

Even champions don't win every game they should. We take that tough, fighting away score draw and we move. We've had a terrific few weeks.

Don't worry; Bayern is Finnish :thumbup:

That will change, Jesus has returned :-)

Yes, there is that.

They sort of do. You don't want to "lose the dressing room."

They won't like that; there's cheap Champions League goals on offer here. Football players are so selfish, only ever thinking about themselves and...

One is forced to wonder if they're even serious here. Do we need more goals? #10 is coming on.

True. But everyone will tell you officiating in the Premier League is incompetent at best.

Not a good sign if your cutman is on so early in the fight either.

Yes, great point.

Yes, we do. But there's always one game, one performance, in the season in which the wheels just fall clean off. We cannot take anybody lightly.

Yes, fair assessment. We did well.

Strong side out tonight, at least. Let's go!

Right. Hiring a rookie manager means offering lots of time, not to mention money, is more or less baked into the agreement from the start.

I'd argue we haven't even BEGUN to be patient yet, bearing in mind the catching up he has had to do just to get us to a place where we could even...

Yes, this is an important point. The club seem to be putting that on the players failing to report even suspected trouble soon enough and preferring...

The "new" money in the game changed all that though. Now, there's no time for strategies and the only thing that can save a Premier League manager is...
