Thomas Partey

Have you ever seen a player go so rapidly downhill so soon after signing? He looked like a quality player when we signed him. Like an adult playing against under 15s. Then he went off the boil and couldn’t get his form back after his injury. He was then consistently underwhelming. Now he is genuinel...

Re: Night Fever hair v The best Europa league manager of all time KO 8PM Thurs May 6th

Genuinely worse than these farcical performances we have with stupid red cards and goals conceded.

Can anybody out there say we gave it any sort of go tonight? If we can’t turn up for a game like tonight, when will we?

Re: Night Fever hair v The best Europa league manager of all time KO 8PM Thurs May 6th

One shot on target. They are so average. They’re not a tactically excellent team, or really well disciplined, or hard to beat. They are painfully mid table, but unfortunately that is better than us. We are so lost, in absolutely every sense. It is fitting that our season has absolutely petered out i...

Re: Night Fever hair v The best Europa league manager of all time KO 8PM Thurs May 6th

This has been a disgrace. I almost prefer our hapless comedy performances. Who wants to watch this? We are relying on the same players to bail us out, and Saka and Tierney aren’t doing it. Tierney is miles off the pace and Saka just can’t get involved. Saka to LB at half time, Tierney off and Martin...

Re: Night Fever hair v The best Europa league manager of all time KO 8PM Thurs May 6th

We have absolutely not turned up here. Surely we should be coming out the blocks flying. Instead we are a distant second best, massively pedestrian, clumsy as fuck and tactically we look a great bet to get done on the counter. We look like we are relying on Saka or Pepe to nick a penalty or a goal o...

Re: El Reenghole v El Beige Europa Semi 1st Leg Thurs 29th April KO 8 in the ebeneeng

They are bang average. Not average talent but really well-organised or hard to beat. Just average.

Arteta sets up without a striker. Watches Ceballos rapidly building to a red and yet another instance of letting the team down in the competition. Sits back and watches it happen.

Re: El Reenghole v El Beige Europa Semi 1st Leg Thurs 29th April KO 8 in the ebeneeng

Got a ridiculously blatant yellow right before half time, came out straight after with a stupid foul and 10 minutes later there is yet another clumsy foul. Yes it’s not the worst foul but he stood on the guy’s foot after losing control and being on a last warning. Same players letting us down again....

Smith-Rowe up front lasts 8 minutes.

He is just guessing at this management thing.

Are we playing Smith Rowe as a lone striker? FFS.

Xhaka at left back - there we go.

Re: Dippers(blue) H Dead rubber Fri 23rd April KO 8PM

Who would have thought that in a game where we play Nketiah as lone striker we draw a blank and barely test their defence?

And who would have thought that after several months of looking woefully short on confidence and costing us repeatedly, Leno would do so yet again?

Arteta is a disgrace.

Re: Dippers(blue) H Dead rubber Fri 23rd April KO 8PM

Anybody looking for the Arsenal mentality, there it is. Bernd Leno. He has been great before this season, but his comments about knowing he was number one regardless of how well Martinez played were a joke. He is arrogant beyond belief and is a fucking walking disaster this season. Mat Ryan is a goo...

Re: Dippers(blue) H Dead rubber Fri 23rd April KO 8PM

It’s guesswork Perry. Even if they do the lines perfectly there is about 30cm margin of error because of the gap between frames and players moving in different directions. But they are drawing dodgy lines and disallowing goals based on half a pube’s width.

Re: Dippers(blue) H Dead rubber Fri 23rd April KO 8PM

Another dubious VAR decision going against us. Shocker. I haven’t met anybody who would think that that sort of line-drawing bollocks is improving football in any way, shape or form. Look at (for example) that Burnley defender slapping the ball away as Ceballos skinned him with his arms outstretched...
