  1. Yup. The top of the table is about fine margins, and the ability to find that extra handful of goals makes the difference. Both Liverpool and Arsenal lost five PL matches last year. The difference? We drew 14 to your nine (I realize some of those came after yall clinched, but still. Y’all found ways to win and not draw when the League race was still going). Arteta needs to add a curve and a change to his arsenal (pun intended), because everyone’s sitting on our fastball. And we’ve lost a foot or so on that “good ol #1.” What struck me from the Liverpool matches I did happen last year was the directness. It seemed there were always two or more guys making runs to get in behind, incisive passes into those runners, the ball always moving forward, never behind and rarely sideways, etc. Need a bit of that chaos.
  2. If these last two friendlies are anything to go by (we lit up preseason in 2022, btw), we’re in for a frustrating season. We play the same damn way every match and everyone knows it: Martinelli or Trossard totally isolated on the left because the LB inverts, passity-pass-pass around the box without incision, and then pray Saka does something magical. Arteta has needed a plan b for a while now, because everyone’s figured out how to play against us. At least we have a soft open to the season, no massive fixtures in the first seven. /s
  3. Many of those already mentioned, but I didn’t see Rocky mentioned, the original. That one’s always a stop-down for me. Full Metal Jacket and Step Bothers, too.
  4. Grilled chee has gotta be high up the comfort food rankings. Sometimes one just checks all the boxes.
  5. Diehard Marvel fans still see them the first or second weekend; the rest of the public wait the 6 weeks or whatever for the films to drop Disney+. No doubt that is having an impact on box office performance.
  6. Third kit this year is so much fire.
  7. The outstandingness of that post offsets the real plate deduction.
  8. Another vote for YouTubeTV. You can tell it which specific teams, leagues (NCAAF, F1, MLB, etc), events (Masters, US Open, etc) and so on you want to record, and it will record ‘em all and group them separately. DVR space is unlimited, but the catch is shows “expire” after nine months. Best part, by far IMHO, is it records until the game ends. No more “huh… do I set my recording to end 60 mins or 90 mins after it’s scheduled to end?” It knows. The apps, phone and tablet, are great, too

    Yup. I thought Oscar would get him in the final two laps, but good on him for not yielding. Great to see both guys raising their performance levels in this WDC race. Lando winning also was massive point swing. From almost an Oscar DNF behind to just nine points. Going to be a long four weeks.

    TBF, he’s had to deal with seven years of “we are checking,” “we are thinking of going ‘Plan E’”, “your tires are good. Question.” etc. I’d complain, too.
  11. Dutch replied to NoName's topic in Other Sports
    Yup and yup. Nico really was on it this weekend.
  12. Dutch replied to NoName's topic in Other Sports
    Lulz. Maybe an unpopular opinion, but I like Nico and am glad to see him on the broadcasts. Always seems to provide insightful color commentary when he fills in for Martin and doesn’t give two effs about asking the awkward question.
  13. Two matches without an injury was apparently too much for Calafiori. We have to buy another defender; he unfortunately cannot be relied upon. https://tbrfootball.com/mikel-arteta-provides-immediate-riccardo-calafiori-injury-update-after-newcastle-fixture/
  14. This makes me sad. What a player Gabriel Jesus was when he arrived. I’m those first few matches of 22-23 it was clear what a massive upgrade he was to our side … Dropping deep to get the ball, constant movement and runs, linkup play, scoring goals…. he had so much quality. If only he doesn’t hurt his knee at the World Cup… Football moves so fast. He and Zinny were the rocket fuel that absolutely made that project liftoff. Now both likely to be gone.
  15. The Overqueefer is juvenile. And hilarious. Davey adds quite a bit to the show.
  16. But damn… that “2nd XI” is better than damn near every one of our 1st XI’s since 2006.
  17. Timber is an amazing player. Stating that upfront. But it wouldn’t surprise me if Benny Blanco doesn’t regain his 1st XI place if he’s healthy. His overlapping runs create that little bit of extra space Saka and Ødegaard need to work their magic and were a big part of our success in 22-23 and 23-24. And let us not forget the shithousery and interviews, at which he is quite good.
  18. Dutch replied to NoName's topic in Other Sports
    Or he’ll bin it on the formation lap.
  19. The more practice & friendly time he can get with the squad the better.
  20. Apparently Sporting pulled the same shit tactics with ManU and Spurs on Bruno and Porro, respectively. Berta wasn’t having any of it, thankfully. Helped no doubt by Gyökeres insisting on us. If he fires in goals, dude’s going to be a club legend for how he told them “Arsenal and only Arsenal.”
  21. Let’s. Fucking. Go.
  22. Yup. The 5% cash back on gas alone just about covers the annual executive membership fee, and their gas is usually 15 cents/gal cheaper.
