    There is no way around it. Madders is by quite some margin below how he played at the beginning of the season. The question is wether he's just not 100% fit at the moment, or wether he's just an inconsistent player. So, has he always had purple patches like the first 10 matches of this seaoon?

    I feel like our expectations are slightly skewed by how seamlessly Van de Ven slotted in to that CB position. He's an exception to the rule, imho and he's probably on of the most talented defenders of his generation. The truth is that most players will need more time, especially at a complex...

    MOTM for me. Sensational.

    Really? Deki was instrumental in the first three goals. That said, Johnson looked much more decisive today. Much more like an "Ange"-winger if that makes sense.

    "Dynamic and agile", sounds like New Public Manegement lingo.

    Sin-bin trial plan recommended for professional games

    I'm sceptical. As we've seen the past years in football with VAR, efforts to regulate ends up causing even more 50/50 decisions and arbitration. The blue cards will just be one more talking point in the studio and for Arteta to complain about. I'm with Ange on this. A lot of things were better...

    When did little ol' Brentford turn in to this vile fanbase?

    Absolutely baffling the amount of injuries. I feel for Ange. So frustrating that we can’t catch a break.

    Premier League 2023/2024

    Both United and West Ham are such torrid and average teams. Horrible football.

    Disgraceful. I hope the whole club is relegated and the club president is charged with assualt.

    Deserves praise tonight. Showers that he can handle the number nine role. Really Happy for him.

    Majestic tonight. Far too many are wrongfully concerned about his lack of pace. He’ll never blaze past his opponent, he’ll never be a meta card in FIFA but look at all the chances he’s creating. He’s an elite player.

    Match Threads Spurs vs Newcastle

    It’s all about being able to sustain the pressure and playing like this for 90 minutes. The last few matches we have dropped of significantly in the second half.

    Match Threads Spurs vs West Ham - Day 15

    It's a learning curve for the- younger players and for our manager. Big Ange has learned the lesson other attack-minded managers like Klopp and Pep also experienced when they arrived to the PL. This league is different. It's physical and demanding. If you're going to have a sustained period of...

    Incredible how we keep losing to these teames when we are completely steamrolling them.

    I don't agree with the narrative that you stiffle Romero as a player if he calms down a bit. You can play agressive without doing the rash fouls. He's been great all season in that regard. He plays on the edge but still within the rules of the game. However, these big games obviously effects...

    What Our Opponents' Fans Are Saying About Us 23/24

    The way opponent fans react to last night shows that Big Ange is on to something great. Last night will galvanize the team, the supporters and the whole club. We go again no matter what and no matter the consequences.

    Brilliant post-match interview. The guy has a savant-like ability to just say exactly the right things.
