The position we've been left in is so shite, we need to pull off some shock results to pull away from the danger area. Wins against Man U, Chelsea and Leicester Unai... No pressure! I think 3 points from those three games would be a good result, given where we are Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In most cases a a manger gets sacked after a really hard run of games and then a new manager comes in with easier fixtures and it seems he has turned it around. When in reality they would have won those games anyway. With us it’s the complete opposite. Emery has one job on his hands and whilst I hate to admit it. We will at some point need to worry about a relegation scrap. I’m pretty certain we’ll pull away though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gonna drive up to star city today though and walk from there. Something I’ve never done before but it don’t seem that far. I’ll do anything for Unai. So excited to see what team he will pick and how we approach the game. But I guess it’s way to soon for him to get his ideas across. We’ll need to give them a hell of a game purely on adrenaline and support of the crowd today. Edited November 6, 2022 by Vive_La_Villa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’ve never had a manager of his pedigree. Looking forward to see his influence rub off on individual players thus making the more intelligent. I think he will have a field day with Bailey 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basque would be things like pipes, pandero (tambourine) and accordion. Cheers, every days a school day. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for changes for the new regime surely we must start serving Tapas instead of Pukka Pies! You may be in a cultural vacuum there VLV. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If people dressed up with maracas and, presumably, sombreros or something because our manager is Spanish, it would be very lame. (And if you think about it it would also be like wearing aboriginal clothes every time Dean Smith won a game.) Couldn't agree more. This is why I will be turning up in my normal suit, tie and bowler hat, Daily Telegraph stuffed under one arm. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of those terrible results Gerrard kindly passed our way against low ranked teams are going to really bite the next few games. Something today would mean so much more than finally beating United.

(Maracas aren't from Spain, and this idea is crap even if if they were) I guess people here sometimes wear hats like any other country, so some people could wear hats if they like. A cap or something...oh, or maybe even a shirt from Zara. Well your a happy bunny aren't you. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
