So if that stays the same and Arsenal win against Fulham which they should... they'll go 5 points clear of them at the top...

There needs to be a huge rule change in regards to promotion from the Championship to the EPL.

So sick of these yo yo sides like Bournemouth, Norwich, Fulham, Watford, etc gaming the system. They use the promotion and then the parachute money in one big scam cycle of endless back and forths.

I would institute a rule that if you are relegated in either of the first 2 seasons after promotion, you are banned from promotion for the next 3 seasons, and no more parachute money, or at least greatly reduce it.

Get some fresh faces up in the EPL and also force the yo yo teams to actually make an effort to stay up.

Have you got a petition for this btw?

Bournemouth are making that horrendous Derby side (with Savage) look decent.

 These Bournemouth are new  Derby County from  2007-2008 .

Tuchel has been getting a lot of stick for not having any of our attackers perform and having us play somewhat ok looking attacking football. Arteta however has been at Arsenal much longer and this is the first season under him they look like they know what they are doing in attack

Don't rate arteta much or at all, but he did not have 200m worth of talent + added sterling + Lukaku. 

Infact, Saka and martinelli are youth players who were developed by him.

one of the worst EPL CB pairs I have seen in ages

 We spent 200m but it did not get us 200m of talent. Would take salah and martinelli over half of our attackers any day

CHO was better rated than saka. His development under TT has been a joke. At some point of time, questions have to be asked of the manager.

His injury broke him. Honestly always rated Saka higher

TT is not someone to develop talent. But absolute world class talent will break through anyway most of the time. Guys like RJ would make it anywhere under any manager provided they stay i jury free. We are not a development club anyway. Either the academy or the scouts hand us players of RJ’s or at least Mounts talent or we buy ready made stars . 
 

but I was not even talking about talent but a coherent attacking gameplay being executed. It just can take ages to build. I think playing so few attacking players is not helping however it is too early to throw in the towel

nil 1

Mitrovic

[milka 3,362]

Get Mitrovic to Chelsea . He looking so much like Diego Costa .

We need passion  player like him .

I think every team needs some "dirty" players like Diego. Or Mitrovic. Or Ramos. Most of our boys are just too nice.
