We are just over about 60% of the season in, and their consistency continues. They're not a great side no. But then who is? What they have is probably the best defensive tactical setup in the league. Think about it.
Citeh? Hah! All over the shop without Big Vince. Mangala and Otamendi FFS. In front of them Fernandinho is a player but can't cover for Yaya's pathetic attitude.
Leicester? Very well set up for the counter attack but they carved open too readily, which explains how a side like ours that has managed 0 goals all season in 180 minutes against Koeman, 0 goals in 180 minutes against the Chavs (who had 2 tactical managers), managed to score FIVE against them. Leicester are great but if they had centre halves better than Huth and Morgan they'd be odds-oh to win it.
ManYoo: tactically improved but basically average as hell and Rooney only started showing up a month ago. Still massively vulnerable at the back with retard Smalling and the other dross.
Fact is, since Pochettino joined them lot down the road, he's another tactical manager that has outwitted our chief C***. How many wins since he took over? None. They've beaten us though
They have a superior striker, a superior centre half pairing and their defensive midfield like it or not, is Streets ahead. Seriously Flamini and Ramsey FFS
The only hope of them finish in below us is that they are Spuds and if there's one club as adept at choking as Wenker's ballerinas then it's these lot. So they may finish below us, definitely.
The mere fact that with our resources, yet again, finishing ahead of these lot is our target for the season is absolutely pathetic. That's not what we moved grounds for was it? To finish above Spuds? Pfffft
