ETH failed me on recruitment, on training and preparation, on pre-game tactics, OK on in-game tactical changes. None of that can be changed, or significantly improved, during a season, except a sudden improvement on remaining result such as N...

This was because we have fans keep on criticising the Glazers for not spending, that they were taking dividend from the Club, that they were too commercially minded and not investing in players. Here come Sanchez....

NONE of the above

Managers past their prime, is not an easy statement. You can definitely say Rangnick is on the wrong side of the slope, but would you say the same about Carlo Ancelotti? At least not in 2021. You can argue on personality and management style of...

Regarding the Chelsea game, do you mean we were open and kept on attacking in the dying seconds? The same question on Brentford as well? On the Liverpool game I would at least accept Parking the Bus may not be the best option with so many...

chatting up the nurses

The fact that we conceded so many penalty in last 15min, with those obvious sloppy mistakes, means lacking fitness / concentration. I don't think concentration was the cause, fitness is.

WHO caused all these injuries? Poor summer games. WHO managed our summer games?

What is the logic behind all these argument? Do someone mean ETH will keep his job if we beat Liverpool? Because this is all he needs, just 1 win against Liverpool and no matter how shitty he is, he can keep his job? If you/someone argue ETH can...

Nor my 2nd, 3rd, 4th choice neither. Southgate is a mid-table club manager, no better than Potter.

I think the intention of using 100m as benchmark, instead of the term untouchable, is that every player has a price tag. No-one saying Mainoo or Garnacho are anywhere near that price range, but simply the reason that they look good and are...

Forgotten about Sancho?

Ole may have been right about the change, but why DIDn't he fell back to counter-attack in Oct/Nov, when it clearly didn't work and very likely costing his job? He practically had the same squad as 1st season. ETH prefer more open play, and...

Dalot's passing with his right foot, is about the only bright spot of our entire defensive line. Only a fit Shaw can offer something similar (with his left foot)

Yes, because it tried to draw conclusion from a section of the game that suits his/her argument. What about other goals that we conceded from set piece? How many goals have we scored Big Sam's team would normally concede much less goals, but do...
