Match Thread Arsenal v Everton - Preview, Match Report & MotM Poll

[Dublin blue 75]

Wrong sub. Get gray off

Doesn't matter much but still. Highlights what a poor squad this is, that needs gutting.

Which I, for one, am thankful for.

The more of these get shipped out in the summer the better.

Don’t want new contracts being handed out on the strength of a few desperate wins, no matter how important they were.

I was thinking more Stalin than the B-movie horror.

Oh, I'm all for Kevin Thelwell channeling his inner Lavrentiy Beria from tomorrow...

 

[Infernus]

I hope Leeds fans don’t even think about celebrating staying in the league. That’s a points deduction don’t you know??

People trying to dissect the tactics and stuff but honestly we’ve got 9 first team starters out and clearly don’t care. I genuinely care more about City winning today than us trying to finish above Southampton!

Dissecting the tactics of today in isolation is completely pointless. What we’re commenting on here though is the theme across almost every game we’ve tried to play a back three i.e. get pushed back, becomes a back five, midfield two get swamped, can’t get out, invites more pressure and front three get isolated.

That’s entirely valid to comment on.

That Cedric goal deary me

 

[Hellerad]

I hope the away fans invade the pitch at full time

 

[Azza]

Turned it off. Going to watch the rest of the City game.

I for one welcome a fire-sale.

Because we are absolutely shocking

Last time we finished near the bottom (17th) we finished 4th the following season. It’s a clean slate mate.

 

[HalfTimeSayers]

The scoreline only hurts if you think these losers were capable of better. The squad is full of wasters and if our likeable novice manager thinks he can rely on more than a handful of them next season he will be a memory by November.

This.
Happiness = an event - expectations

Once you accept how bad some of these players are and have zero expectations, you are always happy.

 

[LABlue2]

Lol another everton yellow card for diving, think we have more than 50% now!

I agree

Spurs 4-0
