Arsenal v Manchester United, 4th Oct, 4pm, SS1

[Power n Glory]

I don't need to explain anything.
If we beat a team who it looks like will also be contesting the title and are currently top then clearly that's a good sign. Especially given our record against them.

A good sign would be making the correct team selection, making the right subs, getting our tactics right and the players actually turning up with a good performance. That's a good sign. We beat City last season but somehow still finished below them and we're still making the same basic errors, lapses in concentration as we always have.

I'd just take a win, those things would be nice too though.

Of course you would. We all would. But one game (result) isn't a sign of progress.

No wonder why these sort of conversations go over your head.

A lot of you people talk about things you're not qualified to talk about. Like you have a flying fuck about what the right tactics or subs are. For you idiots, it's win = good tactics, loss = bad tactics. Unless it's fucking obvious there was an external factor (like V Chelsea). I don't mind you guys moaning about Arsenal because you so desperately need them to win, but let's be realistic. You're not in a position to get technical.

I never said it was.


I see you've now returned to the WUMming, so I'll bid you good day

Actually for most of them it's:
loss = poor tactics, Wenger's a ****
win = poor tactics but we got away with it, we won't next time, Wenger's a ****

This is what I've tried to illustrate to you a few times - I did so in the my last response to you. This current squad - spanning the past two seasons - have put that to bed. Over three quarters of the points we pick up come from those in the bottom half of the table. So while it used to be the West Hams, Leicester's we used to consistently mess up, that simply isn't true any more. It's at the other end of the table the problems lie.

O...K. But isn't that why a win vs Utd would be a positive sign?

You need to knock off the drinking.

Well, whatever. This place has obviously turned into a cesspool where people vent about their personal frustrations by blaming their favourite sports team. Haven't seen a worthwhile debate in here for ages.
