David Datro Fofana scores a brace for Burnley whilst our strikers can't hit a barn door

He looked quite powerful in his cameos last season but potter and pard largely ignored him

Any manager worth his salt would have us 6th before too long , however the dogshit Poch has almost certainly killed this season already

2g and 1a in 2 cameos from the bench... Weird, in Bundesliga he couldn't do anything...

The solution to most of our problems is generally within the club. They are just given no chances or limited cameos.

I'm sure he'll have outscored our attackers come May if he remains fit.

We can reel in Aston Villa at least at 5th , they are absolutely rubbish and their squad sucks 

would require squad to stay fit and for poch to step up his intensity and stop being a loser so probably won’t happen 

Villa beat City, Arsenal, Spurs and Chelsea. How are they rubbish. They are miles ahead.

Got dominated last time we played them , they suck ass and will crumble by seasons end. Great coach though

Dont think so. They will finish 4th or 5th. They have a 10 points gap on teams that arent that stable themselfs like Spurs, West Ham or United. 

Dont underestimate these smaller teams. Didnt u say Brighton will battle relegation this season?? Well, they are above United, Newcastle and Chelsea atm.

I don’t recall making any definitive prediction about Brighton but they are an irrelevant nothing club and won’t achieve anything regardless

Zerbi is a tin pot loser and Brighton are a nothing club with no future. They’ll be battling relegation next season and this hipster fraud will find himself in the job centre. Italian potter 

Probably being emotional about Caicedo^^

Agreed. At some point we decided to disregard CL, which is essentially what differentiates small and big clubs. Big clubs *can* and have won the CL (some multiple times 🙂 ) while smaller clubs only take the occasional stroll there and then go back to their normal mediocrity.

Villa are decent, take away Emery's coaching and they wouldn't be anywhere near top 4.

I feel that's going to be us for a while...won it but who knows when actually get a chance again to even try at this rate. Just bouncing around mid table again.

Closer to bottom 3 then top 4....
