    Auba is a waste of space up front on his own, he can’t hold the ball up and doesn’t have the energy to press. He needs to play with Lacazette so he can just focus on doing what he can do well and that’s be on the end of an attack.

    Not sure why Tavares is getting the nod ahead of Tierney, he’s nowhere near as good.

    Also bringing on Eddie when he rejected a contract was weird. Bit of insult to Pepe who while being unpredictable is a lot more capable of making something happen.

    Arteta got it completely wrong last night.
    We will not finish 4th and TBH I'm not sure I want us to even make Europe, which seems to be the only way to force the clowns at the top to do the right thing and go with an experienced coach.

    Man U will only improve when the German maestro gets his hands on them and Spurs will finish above us again with Conte at the helm.

    I hate the predictable rut we find ourselves in, we always know our fate in December....and this was all avoidable if we had the balls to do the right thing and end this shitty experiment.

    BTW what would be the use of getting into Europe, when its clear we have a coach who can't beat any decent opposition? It's like the final years of AW all over again (without the pretense of attractive football of course).

    Obviously you can only really judge a season at it's end, but just comparing last year's start to this.

    Last year: W4 D2 L8 F12 A18 Pts 14
    This: W7 D2 L5 F17 A20 Pts 23

    So...has there been progress? Honestly, I'm not sure. I guess we'll know for sure in May. But I'm not going to jump back on the Arteta Out bandwaggon just yet.

    Using racist epithets for everyone is still being racist- stop trying to be clever by half on this.

    Honestly, WTF does this have to do with the predictable rubbish we witnessed yesterday?

    I doubted anything could get me more pissed off than the predictable result... well done!
    It's about the race driven political statement made at the start of the first match (half match) I have watched in months. It definitely made me have a reaction and this is the match reaction thread. Watching, literally, a group of all races, colours and creeds kneel before Lord Woke to condemn racism from the least racist country on the planet that has changed it's culture, language, laws and habits to a ridiculous degree in abject appeasement? Everyone should react to that appalling accusation.

    As for the half match itself, that kind of faded into the background and burred away, like the insidious political messaging probably does for people who see it twice a week.

    But, the mods can edit or delete the post in question, if they want. I made my point. The point wasn't to upset other people, it was to convey how pissed I am at being called a racist all the time by an ultra privileged and wealthy united colours of Benetton who then can't even be bothered to earn the cash they have extracted from the said, supposedly racist, great unwashed.

    Sadly, I agree

    Right now, 4th place is probably between Manure and the Scum.

    the problem probably is the experience of the managers we are competing with. West Ham could be up there too. We have no Europe to worry about so it really should be our opportunity.

    Let's not forget this time last year Spurs were Champions Elect ™ while we were bumbling around in mid table.
    Long way to go yet, let's not write ourselves off or crown Spurs just yet.

    Funny though, isn't it? All the people on meds taking the piss out of those who aren't and won't.

    This is my main concern. Arteta is a novice amongst the elite.
