When we play with tempo we score but we play way too much slow slow slow to tear teams apart :roll:

Martinelli isn't even a shadow of what he used to be...Not even 50%. :cry:
remember when klopp rated him as the best prospect in europe.....

Most of us on here rated him very highly too. When he first came into the side under Emery I thought he was the best youngster we'd seen for absolutely years. Remember him coming on away to West Ham, when we'd been absolutely dreadful and they should have been out of sight and he scored two cracking goals. I still can't help wondering if his dynamic style has been coached out of him, in the manner that Wenger would do to exciting players.

Shit ten minutes and an average 35 other minutes. Get this fucking sorted half-time, get the ball moving quicker, get players in the box, whip a ball in, have a shot, try something other than fucking passing it along the back four or out for a goalkick.

Marginally better since the equaliser, but only marginally. Passing still not quick enough and far too many sideways balls with very little happening further on.

If we found a buyer for partey and Martinelli in January I’d let them go.

There’s a reality here that 4 or 5 first team players need to be signed to be competitive, both within the squad itself and then in the league.

Yeah! We need to move the ball 10x quicker or they'll pick us off again...

They can't cope when we move forward and into the box quickly.... God we miss Saka's inventiveness...Nwaneri is doing well, but needs to trust himself a bit more and have a Crack from just outside the box.

Brentford fans are such cocks. Only short of having a band in the stands. :oops: :roll:
have to admit...know the Brentford area well...as a youngster was marched from griffin park to the local nick after some bright spark threw a brick at an away fans coach....

Fat copper chasing my mate down the road as he tried to get away.... :D :D :D

Happy days

Him and ESR, so disappointing, they just bottomed out. I wonder....... if they had been in the hands of a quality manager from the start, then maybe..... 🤔

That's the question I ask. Both were superb early on and had so much potential. :|
