    Arsenal

    I was thinking the same. Arteta and Poch are mates, Arteta has said many times how he looks up to Poch as an older brother type figure and IIRC Poch tried to get him to join his coaching staff at Tottenham before he went to Man City. Both have an authoritarian style and struggle with big name...

    We're not going to win either European competition next season but at least Champions League will attract a bit more revenue for the club to waste and it might be fun to play in the new format

    Player Watch: Pierre-Emile Højbjerg

    When he's been relied upon to be our main creative outlet, as he was at times under Mourinho and Conte, he's obviously looked shite. When playing in a deeper role with any of Ndombele, Lo Celso or Bentancur around then he looked more effective. I've made the Scott Parker comparison a few times...

    2023/24 - The Race For..................

    Wolves is the one for me. How we threw that away after we'd scored and had the momentum to lose at home was ridiculous - you'd have thought we'd have a point to prove against them after letting in two goals in the last minute in the away game. I expected us to be inconsistent this season but...

    It doesn't work like that - a ten point gap to a team chasing the title is far bigger than a ten point gap to a team chasing top four, which is also bigger than a ten point gap to survive relegation. Reason being - a title chasing team is far less likely to drop the points you need to make up...

    They did win in the cup though - that will have ended the hoodoo in the minds of their players. Regardless - you know what they're like at the business end of the season. Can't remember them dropping too many points in massive pressure cooker games in the final few weeks, all of our wins...

    Match Threads Spurs vs Forest

    Anyone else think Forest should be higher in the table than they are? Wood, Gibbs-White, Hudson-Odoi, Elanga - that's a decent attack with the right coaching. Shame for them they've got Nuno.

    Manager Watch: Ange Postecoglou

    "Ange doesn't have a plan B" But yet again - a second half turnaround with inspired subs in a game to win a game we were struggling in. I'd argue that plan B seems to be better than plan A

    2023/24 - The Race For..................

    It's wishful thinking. City don't drop many points at the business end of the season and we've taken what...three points at Anfield in the last decade? Best we can hope for is another Arsenal bottlejob/implosion as the pressure heats up but even that is looking less and less likely the further...

    Very much looks to be a confidence player. See the end of his time at Juve, the struggles he had last season in the toxic Conte atmosphere, and what he's going through now. When he's on it, he's been brilliant, though he's not been on it for a few months now. I think we're going to need his...

    I was thinking just before the goal that he'd fallen off - he was arguably our best player in the first half of the season but he's been nowhere near as good recently. Great finish though.

    Yeah but imagine if we hadn't been so cheap and went for Tapsoba instead, we could be unbeaten like Leverkusen are :)

    If 5th gets Champions League then we need 11 points from the remaining 7 games to guarantee it - only 10 if we assume that Man Utd can't close a 21 goal difference gap. That's if they win all of their remaining games which given the way they've been playing this season I highly doubt. Sounds...

    The flipside to all of this is - there are far more managers that have not managed to kick on from their first season, or that things have gotten even worse. You need to justify being given more time. Arteta would have been sacked for sure in December 2020 had they not won the FA Cup in his...

    If we end up in the Europa because we weren't good enough for CL then so be it, but let's not pretend that it's better for the club if we don't qualify for the CL. EL is much harder to win than people think. Too many of our fan base seem to expect that we'd be one of the favourites if we only...

    Am loving the fact that we never appear to be beaten until the final whistle is blown. Tottenham teams of the past have been known for dropping their heads when we go behind and struggling to find a way back into games, how many points this year is it from losing positions now? The flipside of...

    In an ideal world - sure I'd keep him as backup. But at 23 years old he surely can't stick around forever at a club where he'll be 4th/5th choice...
