Amazing overreaction by Moreno to get Welbz booked there

 

I cannot fucking believe how bad they've been. I genuinely, genuinely believe I could score against them the way they're playing right now. Personally I don't think Wenger can do much about his players' shitty attitude - Ramsey, Ozil, Ox should all be sold (and Walcott & Wilshere too). They just cannot be bothered to try.

 

that's a fantasy goal for yours truly.

also arsenal do not have the personnel to play a 3 back and that's the base of all of their problems

 

Arsenal are incredibly shite.

 

Arsenal are favorites for 6th on this form

 

I actually predicted Arsenal top 4 (LMAO!) but there's no way on a showing like this they will make it. Can't bring myself to say Liverpool will get there though

Edit: Ramsey off at half-time. Hopefully off, to another club!!!1!!

 

hell of a run there by salah

 

With Mane & Salah in their team, why are Liverpool not selling Coutinho for £100+ million?!

 

to be fair,,,,,, liverpool's attack sucks

 

Who gives a fucking shit.

 

Hugo and Wanyama fucking up last week

Trippier fucking up today

But let's blame the stadium

 

I stand by every egregious opinion I've ever shared in this thread, and - If I may - I'd like to "ante up" by saying Mané is the only Liverpool player in their whole squad who could get into any of the other top 4's starting XI's.

I'm kidding (or am I?). I said what I said at the start of the season because I felt Liverpool lacked an "elite" attacker. Now, I think Mané may be that elite player.

 

agreed, this thread should just be an uninterrupted string of things like "christian pulisic is better than ousmane dembele"

you didn't say they lacked an elite attacker, you said they specifically lacked a bonafide 20+ goal scorer, a caveat i said was meaningless

 

Just at me next time

 

There's more meaningful content in that than 90% of the shit you post anyway.

 

Gary Neville has said he wouldn't get rid of Wenger now and never would. Interesting but archaic view of managers imo. I think Wenger has lost his touch a while back. They can play pretty football at times but as a complete shambles at others. I think he's well over done now at Arsenal. Obviously I hope he stays but there's definite merit in the Wenger Out brigade.

Neville seems to be stuck in an old view of football, there's too much money and talent in the premier league for any team to sit by and watch their manager flounder. I feel teams can be harsh on their managers but it's just a byproduct of what the league has become and where football in general is going.

 

goal of the day?

 

really? you want to go through my last dozen posts or so? i know theyre not going to win any pulitzers like "arsenal are incredibly shite", but i put a little bit of effort and basis into them.

 

Look, buddy - I'm not here to offer professional level insight, am I? - I looked at what the 3 teams who finished above you last season had that you didn't (Costa, Kane, Aguero type attackers) and offered an opinion based on that to try & start a debate when bored at work. I don't know what the issue is with that but hey, if you don't like that, then I got 1 thing for ya!!!:

 

Hey @Jeff you okay with all this Harvey madness happening?

 

who would try to assess the gap between chelsea/spurs and liverpool last season and reach the conclusion that the difference was the absence of a 20+ goal scorer and not, like any rational person could determine, the lack of an elite defense

 

Because it's such a blindingly obvious thing to discuss it's not even worth bringing up. The debate would be over in 1 post - at least we got some mileage out of this one!

Anyway, we're discussing something that isn't going to be clear until the end of the season - I'd say if only the season was 3 games you could say you got me, but you still wouldn't have won anything 'cause United are top! lol - so I'll unblock you at the end of the season & we can discuss it then, ok?

In the meantime, you can go back to posting subliminals at the American soccer fan who - shockingly - likes to discus an incredibly gifted, promising American player. The cheek of him!!!1!!1

 

I wouldn't use Arsenal as a way to say my team's attack is good.

 

Monaco are 4-0 up at half time. Haven't missed a beat.

 

Liverpool are the new arsenal. They'll qualify for the CL, get knocked out at the last 16 and win nothing. Arsenal are the new Liverpool. Won't qualify for the CL and win nothing. Both are shite anyway.

Asensio is class though.
