  1. Are you daring to suggest that Filip Marshall might not be as good as world cup winner and best goalkeeper in the world Emilio Martinez?
  2. It was noticeable towards the end of the arsenal game when usually we'd go a bit quiet and tense almost waiting for the inevitable equaliser, instead we roared the team over the line. It was great to be a part of it. Maybe part of that growth and belief.
  3. Sold out at the 3+ Away Conference League matches level didn't it? If people are buying tickets and not bothering to go they should be blacklisted for any other european tickets, there's plenty more of us who'd love a chance.
  4. Lots of people mentioned Tim, but as much as I'd like to see him start and have a chance to show what he's got, I'm pretty sure he's not named in the squad. I'd be happy to give Chambers a bash at centre half. The stinker he had was at right back which isn't really his position.
  5. No idea why refs put up with it. Someone wags their finger in my face like that they're getting told firmly to **** off. Should have sent the cheating prick off.

    He's got the best song so he's the first name on the team sheet for me Clive.

    Unai Emery

    I adore the man. I cannot believe he is our manager. I would die for him.
  8. Luiz has definitely played himself into this game with the yellow, and a player of his class goes a long way to securing the draw we need.
  9. Looks like the three spots are pretty much sewn up unless Forest collapse. Everton would be 10th without the deduction, above Chelsea!
  10. It's pretty hard to define what 'legend' status entails, but I'd put one of the key ingredients as being universally liked/thought highly of. I don't think anyone that splits the fanbase can really be a 'legend' since half the fans don't even like him. In the same way that Martin O' Neill is not a legend, despite what Amazon Prime footage says, because loads of people hate the bloke. Modern 'legends', I guess people like Petrov and Laursen come closest, pretty much universally adored by the fanbase.
  11. I see where you're coming from but disagree - I think if the players are available, even if they cost a premium in January, we should be making acquisitions with a view to next season. We've seen what this guy can get out of players given time, so I think anyone we buy should be seen as a player for next year and not someone that's going to come in and start many matches this season. Give them a few months to bed into the system and learn from the master.
  12. Same mate, missed that one, missed the Brighton match last season too! Half five kick off against arsenal, usually a good kick off time for atmosphere as people have had a few pints. If we start the game like we did against man city it should be a cracking atmosphere. I'll be tanked up in the Holte End doing my bit anyway.

    Unai Emery

    Kids these days often support players rather than clubs, apparently. I think I might have become a die-hard Unai Emery fan.

    Unai Emery

    It really is an education watching this bloke's team. He's something else. Any other manager in world football would be a disappointing step down now. We have the best keeper in the world and I genuinely believe the best manager in the world.
  15. Absolutely this. Much prefer it to the sky knobheads wanking each other off.
  16. Guessing this ref is getting a Very Poor from everyone then. Joke. We can have these. They'll have to sub their best player to keep him on the pitch. We can make good changes.
  17. Nope. It's got a margin of error of about a foot if two players are moving between frames. Pisstake
  18. Played well. Looked good with the ball, a couple of times when he was getting closed down he wasn't afraid to play it long. Didn't have many shots to stop but when he needed to claim the ball he looked assured. I'm not his biggest fan but this will do him the world of good, and I assume he'll get another go in Bosnia. Good for him.

    Matty Cash

    I thought the little one-two he did before playing a pinpoint ball to Diaby which the keeper saved well was one of the best moments in the match. Love Catty Mash I do.
  20. Maybe, but go for the third and end up drawing and it's out of our hands. I fancy us to get a point against Zrinski, Emery obviously does too.
  21. Good that. Could have won it by more. Second half we absolutely bossed it and had our chances. Delighted to see good minutes for Ramsey and especially Moreno (despite the 'get him off' shouts after 20 minutes in the match thread). Rubbish ref. Yellows for nothing, never heard of playing advantage. Didn't go tonight as I've got a stinking cold so decided to stay home. Hope everyone gets home safe.
  22. I thought he took a swipe at the lino but looking at it again he's swiping the hand of the player who's pulling his shirt.
