Some ridiculous disappointing knee jerking, OTT reactions and comments in the match thread tonight.
We are clearly on an upward trajectory under Ange but this season has been incredibly disrupted, it’s only now we’ve started to get all of our players back and near to match fitness.
Yet in a managers first season with new players and losing Kane and an entirely new style of play, some of you seem to expect us to win every single game and dominate and thrash every single team, I have news for you, that ain’t going to happen, not even City,Liverpool or Arsenal are doing that this season, the PL is tough and we are only 3/4 of one season in with a new manager and a new group of young players.
There will be ups and downs and good performances and lesser performances, but overall the style of play and work rate and attitude and playing to win and nice football and dominating the ball and coming back from behind to win games etc etc these are all very positive things to build on.
It’s very clear that the squad still needs work and Ange has said that is the case.
Honestly some of you need to take a step back sometimes and read what you are writing and see the bigger picture here.
Anyways rant over but I and others have said repeatedly from day 1 this season there will be ups and downs, tonight wasn’t even really that much of a down, it was a tough away derby match against a 7th place side who recently won a European trophy and who in the pouring rain with a low block are not easy to play against, could we have played better? Yes? Is it the end of the world and drama that some of you are making out? Absolutely not.
Ange fully fully has my backing and I’m excited to see this journey continue especially if we can hopefully get him some new quality attacking player upgrades this summer.
