DB getting absolutely schooled here and I for one am all for it.
Haven't seen a beating like that since Calum Chambers/Jefferson Montero back in 2014.
DB's been Chambers'd

4 and a half billion pound transitional teamsDB10GOONER wrote: ↑Sat Feb 11, 2023 4:51 pmWe have no ability to change up our game. No plan B. But the Arteta cultists will tell you he is the greatest young manager in the world and we are top because we the best team in the world, and it has absolutely nothing to do with all the other top 6 teams being shit and going through transitional phases....
This is the kind of game where Arteta has to show he is more than a Spanish Wenger.
COME ON FFS!!

6 premier league games without a goalxisstential wrote: ↑Sat Feb 11, 2023 4:53 pmI don't believe you can win a title with someone like Eddie as your main target man. Jesus is not the answer either, he hadn't scored for 9 games before he got injured.
He scored at Brentford and home to spurs

We’re we winning the league when we lost 3-1 at home to Newcastle in 01/02Perryashburtongroves wrote: ↑Sat Feb 11, 2023 5:00 pmPoor all game. Should have taken at least four points from the last two games. No chance we're winning the league on this form. More of these fucking boring, ten behind the ball games to come and without Gabriel Jesus we have nothing to overcome them. This was just so fucking poor.
Dropping 7 points in 6 games

57 points would have got you in the champions league in 03/04cameron326 wrote: ↑Sat Feb 11, 2023 5:01 pmWe could probably lose every game from here on 3-0 and still get in the Champions League next year. Brentford unbeaten in 11 and also looked quite shit. No good teams this year.
No good teams then
Spurs on course for 64 points this season

But Man City who lost at home to Brentford areTeeCee wrote: ↑Sat Feb 11, 2023 5:04 pmJust not good enough, and certainly not good enough to be champions. Arteta is lost because he doesn't have anything else to offer, just try to get Saka and Martinelli to do the job and if they don't, we don't have a clue. The team should have been changed after last week, Ben White is badly off form, Martinelli has been lacking, Xhaka has been very poor.......and still he leaves it exactly the same. Aside from City and maybe one or two other 'top' teams, everyone will play the same against us and we won't have a clue. Very fucking depressing.

nkeitah and xhaka and probably ben white would not get near a game in that squad
we are over achieving...and we have played some great football....

Apart from the title winning 03/04 side who gave away a sloppy goal home to Portsmouth in a 1-1 drawPerryashburtongroves wrote: ↑Sat Feb 11, 2023 5:15 pmYeah, title winning sides don't go giving away silly fucking goals and make life hard for themselves.cameron326 wrote: ↑Sat Feb 11, 2023 5:12 pmTo be fair though, when decent top level sides decide to play out the last 10-15 with a ten man defence there’s not much you can do in that timeframe unless you have a Bergkamp/Messi level player to unlock things. Every team struggles and usually fails to break it down. Having a significant aerial threat isn’t a guarantee of a breakthrough either as he’ll still get crowded out in the mass of bodies. The only real solution, especially at home, is to be winning as you go into the last 15. That’s what fucked us up today.Perryashburtongroves wrote: ↑Sat Feb 11, 2023 5:05 pmCity will be all over us on Wednesday. This lot have run out of steam and momentum. Needed world class signings in January, didn't get them. Just like those years when we should have won the league in 2008 and 2010. Draws when we should have won, dropping points needlessly from February onwards, no threat up front and a hundred passes on the edge of the box. We've seen it before.
And let the lead slip at Bolton to draw 1-1

Hear hearBobbyPires7 wrote: ↑Sat Feb 11, 2023 5:40 pmAs bad as we were there is now a real issue with time wasting in our games. Once they scored I would say there was 5 minutes of football played in the remaining 20 minutes. Toney went down three times with non injuries and was allowed. Ben Mee did the same and there were others. Raya took 10 minutes out of the game on his own by fucking around over goalkicks and any free kick in their half. The referee just watched on and allowed it. There was also the obligatory contrived handbags at the end when someone went through Zinchenko. That was another few minutes which ate the clock away. The ref just added 5 minutes and let it go on. It’s becoming a joke and is clearly coached. It’s an art form. We need the World Cup timekeeping back because it’s destroying the game.
The absolute bollocks of booking a player when they waste time but don’t add the time on make it a perfectly valid tactic coz it works
