Magic Lamps

can mount one time not hit a corner straight at martinez

late collapse from a villa counter incoming

no. he did so vs southampton and Manure

the ref is now out to decide the game

another clear handball from villa an dthe play goes on. how corrupted can a ref get

the ref is an absolute pain... every 50:50 decision goes their way.

now is the time for subs

still fuming. we can as well cancel football if passing with your hand is now allowed. lets ignore head injures as well for good measure

typical. ref ignores both, a clear handball and a clear foul on christensen to award a goal vs us

The ref can just go suck some balls

The ref is clueless

grelish gets the national treasure treatment like rash Ford

worked so far^^

McGinn is a physical marvel. How can Such a small body support such a big head

He is way older tho

As are ours. Obviously we should win this with any lineup but confidence couldn’t be further apart

One of those days already

Jorginho is just terrible at this point

Gameplan: Mount playing Chilwell in some space for him to cross to Giroud. Rinse and repeat. May the crossfest begin.

Probably a realistic assessment. Tammy has appealing physical tools and positional instincts. is not a bad finisher as soon as he gets his body under control but is clumsy and always looks poor when he needs to improvise. i think this is what makes people hate on him so much. He gets into good positions but often scuffs his shots due to poor coordination. Giroud who is not as mobile and does not get into positions as often but is more efficient is loved on here despite both having roughly the same statistical output.

Mount, Jorginho, christensen... 3 weak ass players in the middle.... fills you with confidence doesnt it. Suicide vs a dynamic side like villa. We really should have rested players vs Arsenal and played the first xi today.

terrible lineup. That back 4 is begging for goals conceded.

The main difference between Oli and Tammy is that Oli does not do much in a game but what he does, he does well. Tammy does a lot in a game and does some of it well. It makes Giroud the more efficient player but also more predictable. Like Tammy would not have scored Giroud's goal vs Wolves and Leeds, Giroud would not have scored Tammy's goals from yesterday (first post, first serve).

All three have their place in the squad but I woudl rather see Werner coming on from the bench vs tired legs than him being played out of position.

His final passes to Werner and Mount where terrible. But we know him. He will get his mojo back.
