Will we win the league this season? No

I’ll wager there are 30 days in June. What odds will you give me?
Depends when you pay, I can still make money out of it on the interest.
Well now you’re doing it from a position of strength so it’s not really a fair bet is it?
Well you offered "any money" on 11th April and didn't take the 100 then, and you would have been stupid to take it, which was point when you were slagging off fans who were not confident we would win the league.
 
With no Rodri on the pitch we are lacking players with charnachter and aura besides Bernardo and Haaland.

We lack killer instinct, ruhtlessness and leadership

This also doesnt bode well for next season when we will lose Bernardo....we are seriously lacking characters on the pitch...

Players have the physical potential but do they have the mentality yet....this takes time and experience to develop...players like Khusonov, Nico G, Semenyo, NOR, Cherki, are too inexperienced at the moment in a number of ways

Some of them are simply not good enough either.

I only see your comments when we have bad results.
 
And this result is why the number of goals scored isn’t important. What aren’t you getting?
You can say what you like when you have hindsight, can't you.

Again, it's not 'goals scored' it's GD, you imbecile.
 
I don't think Arsenal will find it difficult against Burnley and Palace (who play 3 days later in an European final).

Our chances rest on W Ham getting a result on Sunday. It's not likely but improbable things happen in football. That Doku goal may turn out to be decisive.
 
losing 2 out of our 1st 3 games. Weakened team away at villa. Consecutive draws against sunderland, poor chelsea and brighton. Losing a 2 goal lead at the worse spurs team in 50 years. Draws at home to forest and away at west ham is the reason why its done. Been bang average for 2 seasons now
Yep terrible start to the season (although we effectively we were on preseason before the 1st international break) and we ended up losing 4 of our first 12 league games.

Since then we've played 31 domestic games - Won 23, Draw 7 and lost just 1.
In what world is that bang average?

Could be like that Kolarov goal against Sunderland in 2011/12 when we thought we'd fucked it.

agreed

There are a number of issues potentially coming together that could see us struggle in the next couple of seasons.

1. The experience/character issue already mentioned -only time fixes this....

2. Pep leaving and Marresca being the replacement - everyone knows this isnt a great move but it seems almost nailed on and even for a season as a temp manager its not going to leave a good feeling around the club - replacing Pep you are only ever going to downgrade - its impossible to improve on him BUT i think we may have to put up with treading water in the league for a season or two - is Marressca the best option...Truly no idea

3. Rodri running down his contract over the next 12 months - losing another one of our big characters and a hugely influential player and with no sign of anyone being able to step up.


I think we have a bit of a downturn coming which is unavoidable in all honestly....unless we go out and buy proven world class experience and quality and this doesnt seem to be our way
 
Looking unlikely right now but Saint and Greavsie did say it's a funny old game.
was Jimmy who said it to be fair, Ian was a dipper so let disregard him from the conversation, but tbf he was alright on that show that was the memorable watch in the albert inn pre match in the early 90’s

we had lots of time to analyze a poor Everton and come up with way not to concede so much and we couldnt. :((

i guess there was again extra break for players and staff.

Arse had to visit Atletico in the meantime.
