You haven't unless you're going back pre-VAR and even then those tackles wouldn't go in the modern game.

He's starting to show the form of Mings for me now, one of the things I hated most about Mings. Solid and unspectacular for 80% of his minutes, noticeably good for 15% playing good passes, great tackles and generally showing quality, then 5% of the time, almost every game, he just completely loses his marbles and does something to put us in massive danger. The only reason it's not costing us as much as Mings used to is because everyone else in the squad has stepped up now so others can bail him out, Mings was usually the one trying to bail others out when he did something calamitous. Edit: I should add by solid and unspectacular I mean relatively speaking for a top half Prem CB, I do think both players are very good and don't really want to replace either in our squad. Ideally I'd want them both as backups with Torres having a new CB partnership next season and Carlos, Chambers, House et al out of the club.

Tell me what's wrong with the modern game without telling me what's wrong with the modern game.

I agree, although if someone tried that on me on a Sunday morning I'd have reacted a lot worse than Udogie did. I'd like to think I'm leaving the Sunday league pitch capable of walking into the office on Monday.

Players don't react to "no intent to cause harm" challenges and you had players running from all over the pitch to tell McGinn what they thought of that. 100 times out of 100 that tackle causes harm because there's no way it wouldn't.

Don't think he got the game plan wrong we just got undone by a great goal with their first shot on target, then Konsa and Tielemans just pointing and passing at the worst place on the pitch to misplace a pass minutes later. Game gone before Emery could react and then soon as Emery does start project salvage, McGinn "Leroy Jenkins" his way straight through a player in front of the ref, 4th official and staff and we've got half an hour to go knowing we've got close to 0 chance of sorting anything. Players look knackered, injuries has meant no rotation all season and it's starting to show. We've played more games already than Spurs will all season and we've still got 12 to go if we can get through midweek in Europe.

Do that to the average bloke in the street and you'd be calling an ambulance. He's t-boned him both going full speed in different directions. Lucky he didn't do damage otherwise we'd be waiting to see if it was only 3 games

1. Thinking we'll be 8th in the league next season when there are 19 other teams who will have their squads changed and there's still months to go in the current season is a weird take. Almost like a coping mechanism after a heavy defeat to a top 4 rival. 2. If you want to finish in the top 4 for 4 of 5 seasons, you need to start by finishing in the top 4 once in 30 years. Let's do that first and celebrate it as the amazing achievement it is and see if we can kick on or maintain after.

Oh Jonathan you really should have double checked with your teammates before saying this because some of them had no idea it was a competitive fixture, let alone an important one.

Wouldn't trust Diaby to pass the salt without either just knocking it over or violently lodging it in grandmas eye.

Jesus I said half an hour ago I thought we were shutting up shop to avoid screwing the goal difference in case it ends up 5-0 and now I wouldn't put it past Torres just getting the ball and hammering it into our net.

Borderline damage limitation feels like now. If it comes to goal difference we can't risk trying to salvage something and losing 5-0

Disagree with that. Great goal could do nothing about for their first shot on target and then shat the bed with that pass for the second. Other than that we've more than coped with the game. Matches like this with no real chances, you're always screwed if you make a mistake or the opposition do something inch perfect. Just bad luck it happened within 5 mins

Poor distribution from Konsa again cutting past Son before bending it outside of the boot to start a counter. He's clearly not at the races today
