I didn’t see the Gil one. Refs have definitely fucked us since Liverpool but I thought he was ok today.

Do you think we're going to get it? Serious question.Second choice fullbacks starting for us at CB because we went into the season with only 2 CBs was and is a joke also
We need investment in Jan simple as
Today's team talk was a tactical masterclass.I suggested Emery was a better tactical manager than Posto and I haven't changed my mind.
There should not be anything incompatible about playing aggressively and being smart and closing out the half or game.Parking the bus is a generalised term. Preserving a lead or point is different. Especially just before half time just preserve what you have. Don't give the ball away, no silly free kicks, waste some time etc. Game management rather than gung ho.
Doesn't mean a thing...!
Was he an ange choice?Johnson is looking like a waste of good money
Far too limited for what was spent on him
Yes we play better football but surely Ange is going to be out smarted in many games where oppo just has to drop off. They know we will just have our CBs passing the ball to each other as we have no real width with FBs and play with inverted wingers who always just come inside or go back. He meefs to have some other coaching tactics if we don’t have Maddison. Let’s face it once the suspended players are back it only leaves mvv a CB and MADDs out. With the money we have spent surely we can still well? We spent nearly £50M on Johnson when we needed to spend else where. We have academy players ripping it up but not get any first team minutes. We can’t keep making exscuses of players being out. Ange and the team have to step up and we also need to start crossing the ball into the box better and also switching the play from wing to wing quicker and better.Aspirations of anything significant were pretty much written off after the Chav game.
Losing Maddison, VDV long term fucked us. Romero being a numpty and getting a 3 match ban fucked us.
The reality is that Angeball is great, works a treat and lovely to watch. We just don't have the required quality of players in the final third to make it work at this level, or the squad depth to keep plodding on when we get injuries to key players.
I'm not too fussed though, it sucks but we're in a good place and our future looks bright just as long as our bald overlord gets the chequebook out and backs Ange over the summer.
Chill fellas. Not the end of the world.
Argue away....We're you watching the same game?
Arguabley Gil and Lo Celso were our best players?
You're wrong. A manager can only get the best out of what he's got. If the whole is lacking, then there are definite limits to what he can achieve. You want him to turn base metals into gold. He's not an alchemist....Yes it is. The buck stops with the manager, always.
There's a weird, cult-like following for Wee Ange around here and it's embarrassing.
He had some good moments and, in some ways, appears to be a better fit to the manager's system.In place of who? Most on this board have been crying out for Gil to be given a few gam
Imagine disagreeing with this it will be 5-6 nil next week guarantee it .Season over don’t care what anyone says.city going to ruin us next week .
Press conference Posto said he took a risk not playing a CB but 4 full backs....yup !!
Or even one...
What's that in English?
Neither I think had started this season. Both contributed significantly to our press until they both ran out of steam.
Not relevant.
