  1. Arse FAM TV

    If you really want to go down the Arsenal Fan (TV) rabbit hole there's a guy called Arsenal's Realist who started making videos ranting about how Robbie and the AFTV guys were afraid to directly respond to him (but we're subtly/secretly referencing him in their videos, of course!) because he's...
  2. Which Players From Today's Game Will Still Be Here In Five Years Time

    I bet you that the English footy media is still banging the drums for England's Brave Ox 5yrs from now! There probably were articles calling for an £££EXTENSION£££ after his couple'a quality CL outings against the mighty mighty Genk.
  3. Mikel Arteta | Lego Pep watch

    At this point I'd honestly take Rafa. Anyone who has a clue of how to play football with a figurative+literal spine is ok with me. Preferably someone who is able to see who the quality players are and then get them out on the pitch together more often than not.
  4. Mikel Arteta | Lego Pep watch

    yeah I wouldn't say turmoil either, even though there technically was some turmoil as long as emery was around it was more about getting him out than it was about the whole club failing. to me, emery's biggest problem was that he never had his best XI out there starting games. a lot of this...
  5. Arsenal are a shambles

    Hey no matter what we at least got rid of Ox, who is easily my most hated player in the whole of my football-proper life (2012-present). I don't wanna embark on a giant TLDR missive here so I'll say that Ox is a playet with a £50mil football body and a 50p foot all brain. The absolute epitomes...
  6. Philippe Coutinho

    I just saw that as of ~2hrs ago The Sun (yeah I know) claims that Barcelona has a £138mil deal with Liverpool and he'll be announced/unveiled/etc at 7pm? I have no idea what's going on here, but at the very least you figure that one of the reasons Ox went to Liverpool is that he figured...
  7. Anthony Martial to Spurs | Bouhafsi : "Bid rejected"

    Levy's gotta be willing to go up to 37.2mil after today... Maybe 38.3mil if he scores again next week! Hey now #DontForgetWhoGaveYouBerbatov! 39.6mil final offer! Or if you want Danny Rose how about Martial + £15mil? =P
  8. Post match vs Swansea City

    I gotta say that the most impressive thing about this ManUtd side through two weeks is their killer instinct. Once a side is down and knackered they put their foot on their throat and run another 2-3 goals past them. Another encouraging sign is that they're wearing teams out, especially in...
  9. Chelsea under Conte | Let's sign the next Hazard, literally.

  10. Chelsea under Conte | Let's sign the next Hazard, literally.

    Since Arsene went out of his way to remind the "Wenger Out Brigade" (#WOB/s) that no supporter uprising was going to run Him out of His club; I can only assume that if there was a concurrent groundswell of support for a certain manager to replace Wenger that He would go to the board and inform...
  11. Ronaldo to pay 15 millions for tax fraud

    Mourinho is always keen to keep one and a half eyes on the future because he's a "big picture guy" and not some "win now guy" (...just like his idol Wenger :devil:) Not to mention, didn't CR7 get pretty darn sick of Jose back when he managed Real Madrid? Maybe he'd want ManUtd to change...
  12. The Unpopular Opinion thread. Post yours here.

    If I was able to go to an Arsenal game at the Emirates I'd want to embrace a little WWE [Wrestling] style and hold up a sign that that says [Joel] "Campbell Section" -- that's right: I'm a Joel Campbell Guy! Basically, the ethos of being a "Joel Campbell Guy" is that you really hate Alex...
  13. Really - why did so many of you think Mourinho was better than LVG?

    Yeah, suffice to say I'm more than a little late to the party here, but I showed up here to basically answer the topic's question with "Because Mourinho IS better than LvG?" but then I started reading stuff like the post that you quoted and.... wow. We truly live in a weird and wacky world...
  14. The Arsenal thread | 2016-2017 season

    I agree with what you said about Ramsey being "far too attracted by the ball" -- however I'd phrase it as "Ramsey went Hollywood after he scored a bunch of goals [mostly early] in the 13-14 season." Going into 13-14 I was whinging about how Arsenal was "too cutesy [with passes] in/around the...
  15. The Arsenal thread | 2016-2017 season

    One thing that we can all agree on is "hey at least we're not scousers!" (no matter how "endearing" good ol Harry Enfield might have made them seem!)
