    Robin Olsen

    He's a backup keeper who was not brought in with Emery's tactics in mind. What were people expecting exactly?
  2. Never been a fan of Southgate as manager but unless there is an obvious replacement (Tuchel, Poch, whoever) it makes sense to keep him in for the Euros. Fair play to Gareth and the team because they played very well against France and it's not a given that any old replacement will instantly see us improve further.
  3. Never gonna happen. Move on.
  4. Mate you need a hobby or something.
  5. Here's a crazy idea. What if they were instructed, after a fairly decent break, to take it easy to avoid any unwanted injuries? Is that really so hard to consider? The evening was about Whittingham, not Villa or Cardiff.

    Louie Barry

    Will he be the next Callum O'Hare or the next Harry Kane? Let's be patient and see what happens.
  7. Yep, that's the one. I have higher ambitions than watching Trezeguet trap a ball like he's wearing high heels.
  8. Thanks for reminding me that Trezeguet used to play for us.
  9. Such a relief to have an actual coach in charge who know's what he is doing. Let's go!!
  10. One thing is for sure that regardless of what happens I feel a hell of a lot more confident right now that I ever did under Gerrard. That's progression.
  11. Haha. Am I wrong? More often than not you see some ridiculous knee-jerk opinions.
  12. I think it's more about stifling their momentum and frustrating the crowd than actually wasting time.
  13. It's fine if the alternate is Brighton battering us endlessly. We need a breather and to cut their momentum. It's tacky but there's logic to it.
  14. I'm not in love with our shape at the moment. The back 4 look pretty exposed.
  15. Ings doesn't relieve pressure in the same way Watkins tries to. He can win a throw-in or a foul pretty easily with a quick shift of his feet.
  16. They are reactionary, fickle, naive fans. I wouldn't listen to those sorts.
  17. Unlike Watkins Ings actually was aiming for the far post. Watkins wouldn't have even got the shot away let's be honest.
  18. The officiating has been frustrating but we're cutting it very close and are causing a lot of these problems ourselves by trying to play it out of the back. We really need the break to work on this tactic because the players look very uncomfortable. I'd be happy with a draw here.
  19. Let's not forget Brighton are a fantastic team and bang in form.
