  1. True, but doesn't mean questions can't be asked of Ange's obstinence in tactics, team selections, and man management. I'm nowhere near ready to move on from him, but questions need to be asked and course corrections are needed. Levy and the front office need to address the roster and depth. We definitely have issues.
  2. The midfield and back 4 ain't great either. Other than that, I'd say we're okay.
  3. Don't disagree. I knew this week would make or break our CL hopes. 7 days of Arsenal, Chelsea, and Pool with 2 on the road proved to be too much. Big questions to be asked of Ange and the club leadership in 2 weeks.
  4. Enjoyed the series. I have enjoyed all Clone stories going back to TCW shorts and series 20 years ago. Filoni telling the story of the Clones' integration back into society after the Empire comes to power was compelling. Best part of the Obi-Wan series for me was seeing the homeless Clone for 30 seconds on the screen. Also thought the ending was good. Excited that Ventress could come back into play in future projects. The best SW content to come out since the original series was the last 4 episodes of the TCW 4 years ago. Outstanding storytelling. And that comes from someone who really enjoyed Andor and Rogue One. I hope more animation projects are greenlit, and I hope Filoni is running them.
  5. That Chelsea match in November is when the injuries started. Mickey and Maddison both went out for 2+ months, Bissouma and Romero both get suspended as a result of their actions in that match. Asia Cup and Africa Cup didn't help, but it started well before the international breaks for Son, Bissouma, Sarr, and others. Agree that Ange needs a Plan B. That was evident all season long. Desperately need a refresh to build depth. Davies, Royal, Lo Celso, Hojbjerg all need to go. We need Ndombele off the books and we need to be aggressive in the market.
  6. Not yet. Major differences here were the injuries & international absences. The heart of the season was a disaster when we were dealt a major blow coming out of the first Chelsea match in November. That match defined our season.
  7. Midfield needs to be addressed, Striker is a problem, back line, coaching staff, pretty much an overhaul. Some tough questions need to be asked of Ange as well.
  8. Ange's response to the set piece question was puzzling as well. Might want to address that in the off season.
  9. Europa here we come. Horrible effort to end the season. I know the schedule sucks, but our response to bad losses (Newcastle and Arsenal) has been pathetic. Not going to get better with Liverpool Sunday.
  10. Maddison is starting on the bench today. Probably a good idea. Maybe it lights a fire under him.
  11. Maddison needs to show up. Granted he's hasn't really gotten over his injury, but he's done fuck all since the November Chelsea match.
  12. Gooners chanting "You'll always be shit", meanwhile I haven't heard one Sol Campbell song being sung.
  13. To be fair, both Sarr and Bissouma have sucked since ACON.
