  1. What a player; every match, minimum eight out of 10. Worth every penny.
  2. Not our sharpest performance, but three point and moving on.
  3. Good news, but fuck the FA and PGMOL. De Zerbi running onto the pitch didn't elicit a card, yet Mik got carded and suspended for jumping up to celebrate a 97' winner, in an away match, at the ground with the smallest technical areas, which suspended him for a top-4 clash. PGMOL really fucking hates us; we shouldn't expect any calls to go our way. Maybe Kroenke needs to pay for all the refs to have an all-expense-paid vacation to Colorado to ref his grandkids' youth leagues. Fuckers.
  4. No, there's a draw for the Round of 16. Group winners v runners-up (exceptions being you cannot face another club from your country or a a club in your group). ManUre... They just need to give Ten Hag another 10 years.
  5. Elneny looked like a hamstring. Dude just can't stay healthy. We are seriously thin in MF.
  6. Emery always has been a very good manager, but he had a near-impossible job in taking over late-Wenger Arsenal. Front office was unsettled (multiple sporting directors in his 1.5 seasons), a dressing room with senior players who didn't buy-in and undermined him, and fanbase clearly upset at the malaise that had set into the club. Despite that, he had us on a ~ 10-match winning streak his first season, made the EL Final (which to this day I firmly believe we would have won had we faced a European side instead of a London Darby v Chelski in Baku), and brought Academy products Saka and ESR through to the first team. Nothing but respect for him, and I hope he leads Villa to a second place finish this year - behind us of course. It took Arteta a few years to get the rot out of the club, fully backed by a stabilized front office of Josh and Edu, and KSE's funding once they acquired 100% ownership of the club.
  7. So I avoided PL news all weekend for so that wouldn't get spoiled for me? Exactly this. Should have had at least a draw but Villa took their chance while we wasted our three. Villa have won their last 15 home matches since we beat them last year. Not "unbeaten" with a few draws mixed in; Won. Cannot afford to be profligate with great chances against a side that good. Flush this "poopah" as Jamie Tartt would say and move on; hopefully ZERO first XI play in Eindhoven this week.
  8. They'd be 10th, one place above [checks notes] Chelsea, without the points deduction. Dyche has improved them since he arrived.
  9. @RamjetFDO
  10. Can't link the tweet or the X or whatever it is, but reports are we will prioritize signing a defender in the winter window, as well as midfielder on loan. Hopefully Edu already has the barbecue lit, because we need both ASAP.
  11. The way he sat down on the pitch and grabbed his leg, without any contact, just looked bad. Just as he was rounding into first XI form. This is a massive loss. Kiwior is our only depth at defender now (unless Arteta plays the new Germany LB in his international position).
  12. WTF did he do? To suspend a manager for a top 4 clash, the bar really needs to be higher
  13. Yup X 1000. They really, really brought it, and their supporters made that stadium a cauldron. Hope they stay up.
  14. Rice has been worth every penny. Every fucking penny. Lets fucking go, you Gunners. Lets. Fucking. Go
  15. DECLAN MOTHERFUCKING RICE!!!!!
  16. FUCK YEAHHSADFJKAF!!!!!
  17. Need to find a winner. Come on, boys
  18. Raya or Rambo needs to go in Jan and a clear #2 brought it; this situation is clearly fucking with both their heads. We all know where Arteta's head is, so just get it over with already.
