Someone call a vet. This Rhino has been shitting for 15 minutes
 
The gift that keeps on, erm, something🤣🤣

He's not right in the head is he?

Given that a sizeable percentage of AFTV viewers - maybe even most - arent Arsen*l fans, there's something really unpleasant about them putting him front and centre all the time, we're being invited to "laugh at the simpleton" if you'll pardon the expression.

Or else he's knowingly playing a part. Except his part is that of a simpleton.

Either way it's pretty exploitative.
 
Can’t see Eriksen coming back. He left us for different experiences and a different culture not because he was unhappy. Figure he’ll want to try a new experience again, probably with United.

Would take him back with open arms, but can’t fault him if it’s simply about maximizing his experiences while playing.

It’s defo got to the point where it’s just uncomfortable viewing now.

Like, I genuinely think Ty may have a mental health issue.

AFTV has gone well past it’s sell by date anyway. Just shite.

The only guy I like laughing at is that obnoxious woman beating fam blud blud prick.

And I don’t mind Robbie at all, tbh.

Agreed, would be surprised. He couldn’t wait to leave and it hasn’t been that long. I don’t think the heart situation will have made him all of a sudden rush back to us.

He left because we we're regularly making the UCL, and there were giants sniffing about. He also got into Poch's doghouse, and couldn't get out of it (like so many other players). He doesn't have as many options now, and I do believe that if he felt like we were going to make the UCL every season, and he believed in the manager, he'd have never left. I think he's got that now with Conte leading us.

Same with some of the others. There's some new daniel levy lookalike who bascially has nothing but the football club and is deluded like Ty. He is clearly a guy in need of therapy and a healthier hobby.

Does not sit right with me at all.

Couldn't agree more , AFTV is very much like the early rounds of the X Factor.
Mocking the afflicted
 
Wouldn’t you want to keep him for cover?

We’ll hopefully be playing a lot of games. He really stepped up at the end of the season and helped us get 4th. We never get any trouble off him. Seems to be a real professional.
Exactly this. He's a great 4th CB. Liverpool have Joe Gomez, City have Ake, and Chelsea had Chalobah/Christensen. None of them are that much better than Sanchez. I'd be hestiant to sell him just because he's a fantastic squad player attitude and skill wise.

Fair, but he's had THE lifechanging experience. Not beyond reason that it's led him to reflect that the grass isn't always greener somewhere else/somewhere with a ton of unknowns.
 

The outlet writes that the 22-year-old is one of the Porto players who’ve been standing out.

As a result, Vieira is now drawing the interest from Premier League clubs.

Tottenham, along with Manchester United, have reportedly been ‘following’ the Portugal Under-21 star.

Admittedly, it’s a fairly short report in Correio da Manha, but it’s exciting nonetheless.

Vieira is an incredibly talented player who has also been linked with Liverpool and Woolwich in recent months.

He already has 76 competitive appearances for Porto, registering 10 goals and 18 assists.

Indeed, 14 of those assists came in the 2021-22 Primeira Liga as he helped his side to the title.

“Great future ahead”​

Vieira has also impressed for Portugal at youth level.

He was in the 2019 UEFA Under-19 Championship Team of the Tournament and was selected for the UEFA Under-21 Championship Team of the Tournament in back-to-back seasons (2020 and 2021).

Portugal U21 coach Rui Jorge described Vieira as a “very technically advanced player” with a “great future ahead” after helping his nation reach the 2021 final.

Fans on Twitter have compared him to some great players, including Bernardo Silva and Joao Moutinho.

In May, Record – via Sport Witness – claimed Vieira had a €50m (£43m) release clause.

Not exactly cheap, but hardly bank-breaking either, and for a player of his quality, a bargain.

What’s the new experience at Utd? An overrated manager with an awful team in the Europa League who will be sliding even further this season living off the memories of Ferguson?

I would absolutely fault Eriksen going to Utd. Would be a horrible decision.

It's a bit of both, something is wrong with him but he's defo playing a character

The guys on the pod where on about how he comes in dressed normal, then changes into the Woolwich gear and changes how he acts.

Money is on that his early AFTV days where really him now he knows what the crowd (and Robbie) want him to act like so he plays up to it

Still I think he's got learning difficulties at least blokes not all there at all

Always thought he was autistic and felt uneasy about laughing at him

I mean depending on how much money he makes, he could be a genius.
