Lost to a very poor team today. But they'll all still get paid big money. And there may even be fans who buy the white kit. So it's actually a win for the only people who count in modern football.

Saka needs some proper competition for his place.
And now the fantasy analysis that tries to create a professional match out of the shitshow that occurred today. LOL. It's like one scratch card winner taunting the guy who bought the prior ticket. Two shit-kicking waste of space teams who have no clue how to play the game. BUT - there's a lot of money riding on it, so let's all pretend.

As IBK noted the other week, the problem is less Saka than it is Martinelli. You look at how many teams have doubled up on Saka and that Argentine thug McAllister smashed him in the ribs today. But Martinelli has more space but he isn’t using his pace to good effect. I don’t think Arteta started Nelson today simply to give him game time, it’s abundantly clear Martinelli is bang out of form.
We did have an option with Pepe, but ultimately I think the priority was to get him off the wage bill.
Maintaining the same position as evidence mounts up against that position isn’t consistency, it’s madness or cognitive dissonance. I get annoyed when politicians endlessly double down on their positions as it’s shown more and more clearly they’re wrong, I’d have far more time for them if they admitted they got things wrong and changed tack.
I may be overreacting in the heat of the moment but I’ve seen a few games recently and it’s bloody painful. How can we spend this much money and be this shit? I called it at half time, it was obvious we were never going to score and Liverpool would probably do so at some point when they got their act together.
