The last one is absolutely perfect. Think ye will sign Aubameyang? Where will slot into your team? Two up to with Lacazette?

 

Because he can’t stay healthy, this makes sense. Expect Andre Gomes and Paco to leave in the summer, too.

 

Right?! City missing out on Sanchez could be the difference in them finishing first and, uhhhh, first with slightly fewer points lol

 

Arsenal want Smalling apparently. We'll take Özil, thanks.

 

Yeah I'd be surprised if we didn't sign Aubameyang at this point. I reckon we'll go back to 4-2-3-1 with PEA up top and Lacazette on the left with Ozil at #10 and Mkhi on the right. I like that line up, but I know there's been no planning here and its fallen into Arsene's lap so to speak. And it's the lack of planning/foresight that's incredibly frustrating!

 

So is that

Matic, Pogba; Lingard, Alexis, Martial; Lukaku

In a 2-3-1 front now? I haven’t watched United in awhile

 

Kinda hope it's Alexis on the right to be honest. Lingard is no where near as good on the wing, and Alexis is world class wherever he plays.

 

Yeah Alexis right, Lingard middle I'd say. Lingard has been more of a third centre midfielder, in a more attacking position, the last couple of months.

 

Just realized Sanchez’s first game will be against Spurs.

Ugh.

 

I think this art needs to be shared.

 

Thank you Swansea

 

Liverpool. Beautiful.

 

fucking classic - beat the unbeaten 1st place team one week, lose to the 20th place team the next.

 

COME ON YOU SWANS

 

Sanchez with the immediate impact of helping Swansea bit Liverpool

 

Dear Liverpool,

Fuck you.

Sincerely,
Everyone outside the top 10 (sans Swansea)

 

United have a FA cup game Friday that he should play some part in

 

United's attack is fucking stacked now. Will be interesting to see how Mourinho approaches big games from here on out, because they can outscore any team IMO. Fucking jealous because Chelsea need 2 (maybe even 3) more attackers to compete for anything going forward.

 

I really like that we don't do any of this stupid announcement video shit. Announce the player, have an interview, keep it non cringey.

 

Went to unfollow Atom & Humber on Insta, but I couldn't do it.

They're still good boys.

 

Hoping Spurs can lock up one of Malcom or Lucas. We need some depth with FA cup and CL starting back up.

 

Stacked, maybe, but still inexperienced. You can see it when we play there's multiple chances to put people (Lukaku) through on goal and someone will mess it up by not playing the simple pass. Burnley was head wrecking with the amount of times we should have had clear chances but Martial, Rashford, Pogba, Lingard or Mata wouldn't find the open player. I'm hoping Sanchez plus most of the young lads mentioned above getting more experience will help with that. Killing off teams has been a struggle recently.

Lukaku surprisingly has been one of out best players at just doing simple things and creating chances.

 

I just want someone to take Sissoko’s minutes. He’s actually not terrible, he does some things well. But he’s just not at the level we need from a regular player. He does well pressing and gaining possession but he looks so lost in build up play.

 

His work to set up Martial (I think) at the weekend was textbook team play.

 

I love this post and those dogs so much.
