Expand Yeah, they're the one who possibly could. Spurs would have to have a collapse of Carver Interim manager proportions if they sacked Ange to somehow get 8 points fewer than both them and Ipswich or Leicester. Shame.

Gemmill 49229 Posted January 27 Share Posted January 27 Aye. I was saying to someone at work this morning, if you take exactly the screenshot you've shown above, that's a red. It doesn't matter that it's a glancing blow or that it didn't end up being that serious. The lad has gone in with his studs halfway up the bloke's calf. It's a red. Shearer, Lineker, and every other cunt that's calling it the worst decision they've ever seen needs to be shown that screenshot and then they need to fuck off. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rayvin 5867 Posted January 27 Share Posted January 27 I love this claim that he's only sent him off so that he misses the second leg of the semi final against us, since Oliver is an NUFC fan Arsenal fans starting to challenge Liverpool for the lifetime tinfoil hat award. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gemmill 49229 Posted January 27 Share Posted January 27 Micah Richards was on about how Arsenal fans think they're being targeted and went on to say "well they have been on the wrong end of a few REALLY bad ones". But the truth is, they haven't. A lot of the ones they insist are bad, are actually perfectly good decisions like Joelinton's goal or Rice getting sent off, or this latest one. But they make such a fucking song and dance about it, and these pundits are so predisposed to take their side, that it gets into people's heads that they're the wronged party. And all the while, the stuff that really makes a difference IN THEIR FAVOUR, like it taking three yellow card offences until one of their players actually gets booked, and which they benefit from every fucking game.... That just gets lost in the "woe is us" narrative when once in a blue moon they insist a big one has gone against them. They can all FUCK OFF, as can the thick arsehole pundits who just love getting onnthe referee's case about anything. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toonpack 11142 Posted January 27 Share Posted January 27 Evidently that still I posted (here and on bluesky) is not hard evidence or a reflection of what actually happened 🤷♂️ I’m deluded they reckon, oh and Joelinton doesn’t get booked btw although I believe he’s on 7 yellows. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hadn't heard of him on December. Expand I was surprised to see Khusanov thrown into the deep end against Chelsea. Say what you like about Howe, but he's not one to rush a player in. At times that seems counter to sense, but he took ages to bed in Bruno, Isak, Gordon, Hall, and Tonali. And now look at them go.

Optimistic Nut 440 Posted January 28 Share Posted January 28 (edited) Ferguson would be an interesting one for them with the Potter connection. Might just need a move to kickstart his career.

He isn't so bad these days and seems a quite decent laugh but as soon as Arsenal are involved the eyes start spinning you can hear a whirring sound in his cranium, it's all their ex-players tbh, they're genuinely unhinged if a 50/50 goes against them, shame there's so many of them*. *Arsenal pundits, not 50/50 decisions going against them, I'll take the latter all day long. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand Isak only started because Wilson was injured, if he was fit, Isak would have been gently introduced and I think you know that. I mean, when you look at his minutes when Wilson returned to fitness, it underlines Howe's approach to gently introducing players.
