    ***Official*** English Football Season 2019-20

    I don't think Liverpool have spent more money than Arsenal in the last five years? If they have it's only because they got £120m for Coutinho while Arsenal got nothing for Alexis and Ramsey.

    Arsenal have a fairly decent crop of academy talent. They need to follow the Liverpool model of bringing in a good coach with a clear style of play and buying a couple of proven 23/24/25 year olds every summer.

    Anyway I think things will begin to improve once Arsenal hit their lowest point. Basically what happened to Liverpool in the early part of this decade. Hoping it comes sooner rather than later.

    The final Wenger years were made unenjoyable by all the narrative surrounding whether he should stay or go. It just engulfed everything. In 17/18 we won more games and scored more goals at the Emirates than Liverpool did at Anfield, but still had 10k+ empty seats a lot of the time. People had...

    Not condoning it and obviously elite athletes are meant to be stronger than regular people when it comes to criticism, but I'd definitely be the kind of person to do what Xhaka did if my own fans cheered my substitution twice in six days. Also he's not a great player but we're so bad at the...

    Sports that you've learned to love later in life

    Follow and watch a bit of basketball these days but it's still a distinct fourth in my favourite sports. Tbh I do find it way harder to care about it without having the childhood investments I made in other sports.

    Tbh I wouldn't have it in the top 20 of the Emery era. It was just a par for the course performance for Arsenal given it was an away match to a side who knew what they were doing.

    Liverpool are weird. Don't think I've seen a team as good with so little on the ball quality in their midfield and attack in a long time. Klopp's Dortmund were kind of the same but they did have Gundogan and Götze. The contrast with City in particular makes it stand out. Think all of David...

    Think Liverpool will start dropping points but also City have been conceding a lot more big chances than the last two seasons (and according to the stats, 16/17 too). Given Laporte is out for a while, that problem might not go away that easily. I also wonder if Rodri is a downgrade on...

    Find it funny when a country like Scotland manages to produce multiple quality players in a position as random as LB at the same time.

    Gnabry did show a ton of promise at Arsenal in that first season tbf. And Januzaj is also doing pretty well at Real Sociedad by all accounts. I think they were both clearly great young players, but I'd say Gnabry probably proved he had the higher ceiling due to being a better athlete.

    What a lowkey amazing time Vardy is having btw. Another example that players football ages aren't always the same as their biological one. He's older than Cesc Fabregas ffs.

    Tbh I always laugh when commentators and pundits hype up what a great finisher he is. Probably the biggest takeaway from analytics in the last decade is that that isn't the reason he's a good striker.

    Yeah well he's obviously not gonna get 38 goals. But if he gets 25, that's something that mid table clubs never have.

    Aubameyang's carry job so far this season is incredible. I think sometimes when people predict big clubs to drop down the table they underestimate the impact elite attackers make. That's actually United's biggest issue at the moment. They don't have an elite attacker. Obviously they're hoping...
