For total authenticity can we have a tiny Alexis MacAllister looking in completely the wrong direction?

At least mine got the right city region and kept Dan's feet dry.

Asking it to change the number on his shorts to 33 and remove the Fun88 logo is somehow a step too far for Gemini. 

 

Nevertheless, we have a winner!

Give me an image showing a giant statue of Dan Burn holding the league cup trophy over the mouth of the river blyth like the colossus of Rhodes. Please ensure accuracy in the football strip from this season's final, the squad number of 33, and make sure he only has 9 fingers. Please also have Alexis Mac Allister stood next to him, but make him his real height.

Gave me this:

Instead of giving him 9 fingers they chopped his arm off at the elbow. That is Mac Allister in a toon strip, because of course it is.

 

I gave up and asked for a christ the redeemer statue of Joelinton instead and got:

You could save yourself a lot of time and just say

I blame the work IT. This was glorious. All of it. I’ve been ripped off.

There's a phrase us IT systems types would, 99 times out of 100, see put in the conclusion of incident reports, that phrase was "user error".

Nah, our entire IT system went to shit yesterday afternoon and has continued into this morning. I blame the yank IT blokes who decided to undertake a massive project unannounced upon arrival. Not entirely sure how or what they’ve done but it’s 100% their fault.

 

Typical American attitude, hoy a few bombs, destroy everything, scream freedom and fuck off.

I think for me he's now a club hero, if not he's well on his way to it for sure. Absolutely love the bloke and what he has done, got us out of the shit when he came in and it's been pretty much amazing ever since. Cannot wait to see what he does over the seasons to come, especially if we are able to spend.

I don't think this is his final form. In the post match interview he was asked if he had deliberately played a completely different and ineffective system against Liverpool in the league to mask his actual intentions in the final. He confirmed this and said that even though he wanted to win, he deliberately muddied the waters. This got me wondering if he deliberately played poor and conflicting tactics in the subsequent matches to really throw Slot off. It seems to have worked because the team absolutely played Liverpool off the park and they had absolutely no counter to anything the whole match. This tells me that not only is Eddie a master tactitian for individual matches alongside being a world class man manager and player developer, he is also a master campaign strategist. Leading up to the final with the performances I witnessed, I was feeling demoralised and thinking we were going to get creamed. I imagine that Liverpool thought they were going to stroll to victory. The mind games are real and this guy is a master at them. He's hard to read, stoic and a brilliant tactician. Emotion and agression however are important tactical tools and he weilds them through his number 1 Mad Dog Tindall. It's like the Picard, Riker dynamic where you have the stoic, smart, tactical leader with the brash, charismatic, enforcer first officer. Perfect yin and yang. I think that given support and funding, Howe can give Fergusson a run for his money in success. The guy is a football animal. He lives and breathes it. All he thinks about is the next match and he obsesses over every aspect. He watches losses on repeat to analyse where it went wrong, he refuses to take too much credit or kudos. He has shown that he can take pretty much any player no matter how mediocre and sculpt them like plasticine into a world beating top talent. Joelinton and Murphy being prime examples of his talent. He is amazing, along with his staff at finding transfer targets. Gordon, Isak, Livramento, Tonali.... There hasn't really been much in the way of junk signings. Compare that to other managers with a big budget. The majority of the time you see money spunked up against the wall on big names, rather than team players signed with good attitudes that can be moulded to fit the plan. I could keep waxing lyrical, but I think I've said enough. The guy is class and I definitely think this is just the beginning

Getting Gordon to get himself sent off was possibly taking it too far, though. :)
