Good point, thanks. By a rule I don't and haven't ignored anyone, because I am here to debate and exchange opinions, even if we sometimes do get highly charged or emotional about the team and club. I suppose you don't know what people are going through outside of here, but yeah some people definitely have a bit of a anger or attitude problem. LIke, how can you be that angry this early in the morning? Haha.

Haha. You've had a mare here "fella". I am sure you'll look back and be embarrassed at this little episode of yours. FWIW you are also saying people who agree with me are brainless as well. Maybe you should have a look in the mirror and question who is the real loathsome one. Espeically when you act so pathetic over a strangers football opinions.
I know you want the last word, but you aren't going to have it. And yes, those posters who did agree with you ARE brainless
I'm definitely not embarrassed, and I'm glad I've called you out
Now sit down and be quiet. My DM's are open so feel free to send me a profuse private apology. I'll gladly accept it and allow you to move on, humbled.
I hear you! I have just decided not to feed their obvious need for attention.

"Sit down and be quiet, send me an apology, allow you to move on, humbled". Hahahahaha. Go and have a lie down mate you are embarassing.
It's almost like we are seeing the fruits of him blindly sticking to his principles with 30% of his first team available, especially when Dragusin, Archie Gray and a kid in goal who had been in the country keep a clean sheet against the top scorers in Europe.
I'm Ange in, until it kills me.

My point is that if the best player in the league score high on a metric, there is probably some relationship with the metric and how good he is performing. Especially if the metric is based on efficiency and creativity which I think all can agree are crucial metrics in football.
What criteria do you think is better to use? Something that is objective.
Regardless of whether we want to play like the dippers or not, you can't seriously mean that you think it's a good idea to exclude the most efficient and creative player? If so, what do you want out of a player? Meters covered? Passes made? Direction of passes?
Then you should also prove that there is a link between that metric and the top player of the league. The metric I used is smart because it combines two crucial factors. And if you look at the players on that list, all at the top could be considered world class. There are no random players at the top.
So you can write that Maddison and Son haven't set the world alight but that is an entirely subjective statement. Football is not a voting contest of who's most popular on a forum. Football is about scoring and not conceding goals. To achieve that you want to be both efficient when chances are created, but also creative to actually create the chance to begin with. One without the other is often not very useful.
Our ranking is 1) Son 2) Madders 3) Solanke.
Not starting with all three seems pretty daft.
Stop embarassing yourself mate and get back on to the thread at hand.
It's called effort, effort is not always uniform and results swing on it
Definitely get that you’re sceptical
I don’t completely agree with everything you’ve said, but I do think it’s a pretty fair way of expressing how you feel about the current situation.
From my time zone (gmt+8) it’s always been pretty fked to try and catch spurs live. Even worse now it’s all payTV - add to that the stress of the high line (beautiful when it’s on song)…
I hope he can turn it around too, at least get some silverware this season and pump the Scum int the NLD on the way
COYS
Does he have to be gay to be a gay icon?
Cause I'm sure I heard he definitely was the latter.
Stick him on ignore like most others do.Haha. You've had a mare here "fella". I am sure you'll look back and be embarrassed at this little episode of yours.

Can only assume he's a buddy of admin, as a lot of posters have been properly banned for less in the years I've been around these parts.
To win matches your team has to have a balance and Ange found a good balance against Liverpool. We don’t have to play that way in every game, it should be adjustable depending on who we have available, the opponent, the occasion etc. That’s what every manager does at this level.
If he’s learned that lesson and will be more flexible from now on, we will win more games and Ange has a chance to turn it around. Him refusing to adjust despite half the team being out has cost us our league season but if he can win a cup he can still become a legend of the club.

"StIcK hIm On IgNoRe LiKe MoSt OtHeRs Do"
Funny - you'd think nobody would ever reply to me if they all had me on ignore. Education isn't your strong point is it boy.
The win on Wednesday meant a whole lot more than tonking a crippled Man City who were about to fall off a cliff, or a United team that were trying to get the manager sacked etc.
Beating big names is not the same as beating good teams.
Liverpool are a good team. That's the first time in a while we beat a good team in good form without an injury crisis or 2 players sent off.
without a doubt the best win since hes been here. funny that it was by playing a far more balanced way....
It's also worth noting that all the things those clinging on to the hope Ange is the man were non existent on Wednesday.
We had....
Less possession
Less touches in their box
Less shots
Less shots on target
Less blocked shots
Lower passing accuracy
Won less ariel duels
Had more saves to make
When we lose, we often win those stats and the fans will point to them like they excuse the loss.
The don't. Scoring more the an opposition matters.
