That ship sailed a long time ago.
We pay mediocre football players like Timo Werner £160k a week to not even play football but just go training. Money is sacred that’s it.
For instance.
The club gets all up in arms if you use its logo of a football and a cockerel. It’s very important to them.
The soul of the club if you will.
Unless there is a way to earn money then that importance gets thrown out the window.
Exhibit A.
Just reminds me of the early PL years when the gulf between us and the nomads was huge. If you did a best eleven mix of the teams would any of our players get in? We might get a couple of pushes (i.e. about the same) at best...
I'm thinking of not bothering and hoping we don't get our back doors smashed in...
Getting a hiding may not be the worst thing for us ,
it was that long ago they would be having similar conversations about us .
No such thing as a friendly v Woolwich.
I hate playing this mob in the league, let alone a friendly
I’m still not over the makita cup

Guaranteed that Gyokeres will score his first goal for them against us, isn’t it?
What idiot is going to be the first to say, "It's only a pre-season game."? No it fucking isn't.
Levy proves conclusively that he doesn't give a toss about Spurs. You only play NLD's in England ffs. It's not a bloody game - it's one of the most bitter rivalries in football. The decision to agree to play this game in Hong Kong, for money, demeans and debases us as a football club. Yes, I'll be watching, but it will sicken me.

I'm at the cricket with my gooner brother Thursday. That will be fun.

"And Bumrah's on a hat-trick to reduce England to 2 for 5 in only the fourth over...hang on, we're getting news from Hong Kong that may sugarcoat the pill for Arsen@l fans - it seems that Gyokeres has just...."
SAC explodes
This fixture is an abomination, we should never be playing these cunts in a pre-season friendly.
We've sold our soul
We've sold our soul
God our team is depressing, I know we have a few injuries but fuck me its so mediocre its painful
A fit Maddison changes the dynamic totally but agree.
This could be embarassing, they’re playing 15 year olds in pre season games who look good.
We’ve got 30/40 million pound so called elite talents and we’re praying they can start to look like footballers. That’s worrying.

I don't expect us to get humiliated in games under Frank.
I'm confident about that.
If we're heavily mismatched, he'll be practical and make sure we're drilled and robust enough to fight and make us difficult to run over.
We're still absolutely fucked in the CL tho, yeah.
Non-starter for us unless Baldcunt is hit with a lightning bolt of integrity and buys 3 more proper players.
Then we might dare look to getting to knockouts (injuries/suspensions willing).
