  1. In a lot of other games we can play the “They’ve spent a billion on their team!”-card but not against Chelsea. Everyone is in agreement that they’ve spent bad - wasting a lot of money on average players. Today was a massive step back for me - there’s something massively wrong with us. Lack of squad depth, overworked players (Longstaff, Gordon, Burn and Schar) are excuses. But we lack the basic cohesion and passing of an even OK team at the moment. There’s still time to save the season but we’ve been saying “All it takes is putting on a run” since December and haven’t been able to. Missing out on Europe would surely be a miscalculation for both Eddie and the owners - and I honestly fear losing a couple of players I’d rather not lose this summer if we end up outside it. It’s a perfect storm though - Eddie hasn’t suddenly turned in to a shit manager. Lady luck, a few too many bad calls over the course of the season and (in hindsight) a poor transfer window in the summer has set us up for this.
  2. And here I was sitting thinking the first half was poor. The second has been absolutely shocking.
  3. Fucking hell that’s bad. And it’s been coming. We’re so fucking sloppy it’s ridiculous. Poor keeping by Dubs.
  4. Disappointingly we don’t look to hot. 😫 When the press doesn’t bite we have no ideas at all. Still time though.
  5. A win would be nice and would set us up well for the run-in. If we can control the game in the same way we managed against Wolves we'll do these. Isak masterclass incoming tonight hopefully.
  6. Much better today - and decent options on the bench. Have to admit that I was a bit worried for today after the Blackburn game but we've mostly handled Wolves well this far. Onwards and upwards!
  7. Really going from strength to strength at the moment. Make it stop please. 😢
  8. Good thing the fixtures are easing up soon 😬 We aren’t really at the races this far unfortunately.
  9. This pisses me off something rotten tbh. So predictable. Arsenal are at their best when you let them control the game and move the ball around trying to find space through the channels in the final third. We’ve just stood off them and defend too wide all game long. Looks like we’d given up before the game even started which is unacceptable in my book.
  10. Fucking hell. That’s comical defending. We’ve been piss poor this far. Getting played through time and time again - Tino and AG10 leaving space on the inside every attack. Don’t think we’ve handled this particularly well unfortunately.
  11. Quoting myself wanker here. Even though 2 points is a 100% better than 1 against those teams at home it’s still 99.99% shit. We’ve had some awesome results this season and memorable games but we’ve had a shit load of piss poor performances and results as well. Disappointing whichever way you look at it.
