Magic Lamps

i wouldnt put it past Sheffield to get a draw. Wolves have been mixed since the restart. Sheffield however have been absolute rubbish and will need some luck

then its easy. if wolves lose today, we win on sat and city lose the appeal we need just one point from the last 3 matches to get CL

I am not even sure Gary would have caught up with Willian but Willian being Willian the mere presence of a defender would have made him stop and compeltely derail the attack by keeping hold of the ball for ages till the opportunity has passed. Playing on was definitely the right choice, not a fair play issue at all and class from Woy to not dwell on it. Imagine the meltdown if it had been VVD. Anyway I wish Gazza a swift recovery!

I hope it was not as bad as it looked. Still somewhat thankful we did not need to defend him in the box

JC looks slightly taller than both Kepa and Willy in the training vids. Height stats for players who are still growing are usually outdated. Also in contrast to kepa he has long arms which is even more vital. I dont know how good he actually is but if we had any decent CBs, LBs or GKs in the youth teams, Lampard surely had a look at them already. On a different note, I read a rumour from some random paper that we enquired about Areolawho is out of favour at Paris and Real so would be cheap. He is an interesting option. He is capable of incredible saves and is one of the most athletic goalies on the planet but at the same time prone to stupid mistakes. Think of a huge, younger Caballero.

that little chip to abraham was brilliant. the only way to play that pass through the defence in a way that abraham can finish with one touch without shortening the angle.

Not exactly a tank that Romagnoli guy. Also pretty high body fat percentage for a professional footballer. I would say 80-83kgs at 18-20% bodyfat. Surely his strengths are not in the physical side of the game. Milenkovic looks in way better shape. I would say that 90kg is about accuarate, does looks asimilar bmi as Romagnoli but much leaner. solid 12% bf. At this point any defender would upgrade our defence.Christensen looks an absolute shadow of the player he was at Gladbach. Stupid schoolboy error again. You would think he was a smart defender cos he is not a strong or a quick one but think again.

I can totally see Leicester losing toTottenham and ManUre. So whilst two wins out of four would probably secure 5th place for us, we can not rely on 5th place being enough for CL. ManUre will surely win all their remaining matches, so I do not expect us to stay above them, but as long as we stay above Leicester and Wolves we will be fine. Will be an absolute grind tho. More shit defensive performances to come in the next few weeks. Not just from us.

They are still fighting for Europe so definitely will be up for it. Not really necessary to talk permutations/combinations yet. Unless ManUre slip up we have no cushion whatsoever. Can not even allow a draw bc of the fuck up at Westham. Really need to win all remaining games.

No on knows cos he is not playing

No none who saw the natch yesterday can say that was an assured performance. It was absolute chaos. And Gilmour in the middle of it. We could not control the midfield to save our lives. Getting overrun. Also only 37 of 81 touches forward how is that a good stat.

equaliser doesnt count

I have never considered them as threats much. schmeichel with a couple of great saves. Arsenal arelooking fabulous going forward. Arteta knows what he is doing. All hail the king of dregs lol

Gilmour and Kante as DP would be catastrophic. would look like a dooryard with garden gnomes.

I am not even a big Jorginho fan but what a boss. Stepped on that pitch like he owns it and just passed the ball around for fun. His passing is so clean, how we have missed that. Feeling much more confident about the run in as long as Lamps plays him again. Also no sign of rustiness at all no idea how he managed that.

Arsenal are completely pinned back up until schmeichel gave the ball away. Arsenal take the lead. great assist by saka.

have been saying the same. cant believe Arsenal of all teams has 2 goalies that are better than our number one.

once again, Lamps just saves his fucked up team selection with good subs. its getting boring.

football god was on our side today but he made it tense

Now fucking explain to me why Gilmour has been playing over Jorginho

deserved a goal but Willian did what he does best. ruining counter attacks and again. and again

5 fucking mins

willian is so terrible

tammy had everytime int he world and still scoffs that. willian really made a mess of that move tho. stiill so wasteful

try to actually hit it mason
