  1. What a ball. His game is evolving more and more
  2. Defensive shape is great and organised. Energy levels are conceding though.
  3. So close! Iwobi needs to get there. He’s just a tad deep. DCL though
  4. Just need to kill the ball for a minute.
  5. Huge from DCL to win that foul. Stop the game, take away the momentum.
  6. Alright. What the fuck is Pickford doing there
  7. Hahah it’s because a it’s a nightmare to spell
  8. Perhaps but if I’m a the manager of an average team with 1 world class player that happens to be a striker and I’m not setting the team up to best use his attributes then that’s the real problem in my opinion. Reminds me of us under Koeman when we were loads and loads of reds. Strange
  9. I think the size of the task ahead of him is just being realised and is perhaps yet to be realised by their fans. They are no longer a top 4 team - sometimes you think a team is 2/3 players away from challenging, I think they are (loss of) 2/3 players from really, really struggling.
  10. That’s my point more so. I’m never going to say Arteta wasn’t good - I only ever got his name on my shirts and he was without a doubt my favourite player ( well above cahill ).
  11. Few personnel changes but if Carlo changes the system to the 3/5 at the back and it doesn’t work then he’s left himself wide open for criticism
  12. Personally I think it’s good we can have a debate about our first choice keeper. For far too long we’ve had rubbish back ups. One thing I’m sure everyone can agree on is Olsen is an excellent no.2 keeper if that’s to be his role. I am near on certain we will see Pickford go onto a higher level of performance.
  13. I don’t think any one would change the backline if it wasn’t the busy December period and fatigue management is required. I’m sure Carlo has a plan though, he can see the players day in day out however we looked leggy against Leicester.
  14. Think their recruiting has been largely poor for a long time. Back to when they bought Arteta off us is when it began in my opinion - I love Arteta but he wasn’t fantastic when we sold him and I thought it was strange a “top 4” team was after him at that age & level of performances. An injury to Auba and they are done.
  15. Two teams in pretty similar spots last year when new managers came in. Looks like we’ve progressed however they have won a trophy. Strange but I’d probably rather be in our position than theres, despite our wait for a trophy.
  16. I’d have no issue with it to be honest. As long as colemans 100% good to go
  17. Not to mention RWB with koeman... crazy stuff hey
  18. Could never figure him out to be honest. Some games he could walk through players like berbatov, like they weren’t there. Next games he looked slow and lethargic. Such a talent though and hopefully he gets it sorted wherever he ends up
  19. I just feel Jordan’s ceiling is higher than Olsen. Probably similar levels right now but I think Jordon can be a top top keeper.
  20. Absolutely. I just hope we keep the defence much the same. We are short a striker though. I can’t see Tosun offering anything up top.
