    Because he never looked like scoring one, barring the header just before he came off.
    Doesn't look well. Malaria seems to have drained the **** out of him. Pale, gaunt and ineffective.

    Hit the post twice. None of the others looked like scoring.

    Neither did he. You don't get goals for hitting the post. The second was close, but the first was off the outside and he should've hit the target.
    That keeper was dogshit and they didn't give him anything to do for most of the game. 1 save.

    Just got home after 16 hours in a polling station! Hearing that the goons were out was the first thing my radio told me, and that made me smile all the way home!

    Successfully eliminated the filth by doing what most of the Arsenal team did. Neither of them played.

    In the space of a few weeks they've beaten Dynamo Zagreb and Arsenal

    Funny how the MouAnon weirdos aren't talking about this...

    That Foyth looks like a decent right back, a position we need strengthening. Could be worth a cheeky punt.

    Actually there was double hilarity concerning the exit of our near neighbours for me. I've always been of the opinion that pundits don't really know much, and that they just tend to say what all the other pundits say anyway (mostly). Well I heard it many many times from different pundits how it was clear that Arteta was making a difference at Arsenal, and how they could see how the team was improving. Seriously, they all said it. Then they lose to their old manager! Classic.

    Both Spurs and Arsenal were right to sack Emery and Poch but both messed up big time with their replacements. The only question is who made the bigger mistake. Arteta could be a top manager in the future but the Arsenal job was too much, too soon. Mourinho was finished at the top level and the Spurs job was never suited for someone like him.

    See Solksjaer is complaining about fixture congestion. Caused by Man Utd not being able to complete a fixture due to lack of stadium security. They should be docked points.

    Why were they right? It's not easy to find someone better than Emery and nearly impossible to find someone better than Poch.

    They could punish them by voiding the game and awarding you 1 point, somewhat bizarrely. Weird rule. Not sure why there's a range.

    Honestly not sure what he'd like to see happen. Extend the season by a week just for them? Cancel the Euros? Switch their remaining fixtures to 5-a-side in Powerleague?

    What does he want?

    Because the players didn't believe in him anymore, the style of play was diabolical, the results were awful, he had us in 10th position after a Summer where we signed Pepe, Ceballos, Luiz, Martinelli, Saliba and Tierney. So we added more quality to a squad that finished 5th + reached the EL final.

    It's not even disputable that Emery had to go - the issue was then appointing a novice to succeed him when we needed a major overhaul at all levels of the club and expecting him to be at the heart of that.
