Obviously. They hate us because they were jealous.

We used to have a bigger gap before. Now it has massively decreased.

Guess it's because we are no longer a threat to these teams.

They hate us cause we keep reminding them they're a bunch of wankers! And we are STILL the PRIDE OF LONDON no matter how big a gap it is!!

Rafa Benitez launches stunning tirade at transfer business after 4-0 pre-season loss to Braga

https://www.foxsports.com.au/football/premier-league/rafa-benitez-launches-stunning-tirade-at-transfer-business-after-40-preseason-loss-to-braga/news-story/f31e43eb59059cf0f8ed90b53704d159

 

RAFA Benitez has launched an extraordinary rant at club chiefs after watching his side crash to a 4-0 horror defeat against Braga.
The Spaniard didn’t hold back over Newcastle’s failure to deliver in the transfer window and admitted the club is a shambles off the pitch.

Goals from Ricardo Horta, Joao Novais, Fransergio and Dyego Sousa ensured Benitez returned to the North East in a foul mood as he prepares to face Tottenham at home on August 11.

After the contest, the frustrated boss fumed: “Things are not going well off the pitch.”

That's consigned them to 100% commercialisation, and there is nothing on their horizon but infinite mediocrity, the same state of all Kroenkes franchises -but as long as he makes a profit...he doesn't give a fuck. Adios Arsenal.

Our midfield is potentially world class. In a months time, they will be 80% adapted to Sarrismo and trust me it would be something of beauty. 

We need this caliber of midfield to become a dominant force in Europe again, people forget that it was when we had the likes of Lampard, Essien, Ballack, and Deco in midfield that we were consistently entering champions league semifinals. Midfield is crucial for years of dominance

Who will make top four out of the these squads. 

[Milan 17,865]

Score a lucky penalty and then park the bus. 1st game of the season. Jose Mourinho.

Leicester has been unlucky so far.

[Pizy 18,471]

This lad Maddison looks class on the ball. Silky touch.

Fred for United has looked really shaky so far. Given it away about 5 times already.
