    **Official** English Football Season 2024/25

    Great win for us despite playing atrociously. Happy with the 3 points considering the performance, we controlled things well and never really looked like losing. That's the exact sort of game we would have dropped points in last season. Played well: Konate, VVD, Gravenberch, Jota, Macca Played...

    I wasn't really talking about marketability though, even someone like Mbappe would already be selling tons of shirts. In regard to your other comment, I think its unfortunate but there is quite a bit of recency bias when it comes to modern football and how we reflect on player's careers...

    Varane retiring aged 31. Doesn't feel like that long ago he was an emerging prospect at Lens. Went on to have a phenomenal career but can't help but feel his legacy (at least outside of Spain) was tarnished by his time at United. The constant injury niggles were also unfortunate but probably...

    Bayern start like this almost every season... lets see if he can sustain it beyond Christmas before we judge him

    Rodri out for the season :eek: That is huge. If Arsenal dont win it this time around they never will.

    Poor Arsenal fans. May genuinely feel bad for them if they showed an ounce of sympathy when refs were doing similar things in our title runs against City. With any luck the criticism will lead to Oliver never being in charge of a prem game again. Jks that wont happen.

    Grav... what a player. This kid could make it to the moon

    Been your best player so far this season and its not really close. I won't talk about the pen itself but that 2nd save was awesome, not many GKs can get off the ground that quick. Worthy MoTM. With the form he's in I don't think its a stretch to say he's the 2nd best GK in the league right now...

    Arsenal wont have any trouble with Forest. LFC did well just to compete given how little was spent in the summer

    Is it reasonable to expect this Arsenal team to be City's closest challenger?

    I've never been to a game at the Emirates so maybe I'm completely misguided but there were plenty of news reports about ownership protest just two seasons ago. One such link is here -...

    I obviously don't think they'll sack him, I just find the timing interesting and thought it was a worthwhile discussion. Arteta has done extremely well but the elephant in the room is that he's yet to win anything outside of an FA cup with Emery's squad. If he fails to win a trophy of note this...

    **Official** English Football Season 2024/25

    Strange timing. This is probably the most defining season of his tenure so far and the expectation now has to be to win the league. I would have waited until Christmas if I was the club, this particular section of their run looks mental and that's only if they get through Spurs and City without...

    Harvey Elliott :( For a young guy he seems to pick up the most unfortunate injuries. Hope he recovers quickly, we're going to need him. Not sure if this makes Macca, Chiesa, Gakpo or Jones the back up 10 but will be interesting to see how Slot reacts

    Not to mention playing Trent at RB, almost as if he actually watches club football unlike the bozo before him

    Rough few days for Arsenal. Merino injured, Rice suspended and now Odegaard goes off with what appears to be a pretty serious ankle injury. We may finally see Havertz back in midfield. Either way going to make for an interesting game v Spurs and their fixture list looks very tough

    I was surprised we didn't sell him this summer. He's good enough to be a prem GK but not quite good enough for a top 6 side. Very capable back up. Has had some great moments over the years and is living out his dream to be an LFC player
