Reece James ✅

Win percentage without him is 45%.

Despite being a world class chode Arteta has worked wonders there. I hope they sack him.

I actually think Rice will be a good CB one day.

isn’t pretty much what Gordon does (and any inverted winger)? The difference between the two is that Gordon offers more physicality and directness. Barnes will offer more goals.

We are probably on par where we should be with points. Deserved to win both of last but finishing let us down. Before the Man City game we were abysmal. it just feels really stale. That feel good factor has gone, and that’s mainly because we haven’t pushed on with the transfer activity. Kelly looks like a waste of time. BDB has arguably been our player of the season and Botman will be back in a couple of months.

I don’t think Howe fancies Barnes that much .

I’m not watching this but I expect Arsenal to shut up shop then win it 1-0 with a set piece.

Howe might well get fucked over if we slump towards lower half of the table. The Saudis will expect progress every year but we are going backwards. He is a quality manager both tactically and motivational wise. I’ll be gutted when he leaves.

That 5 point gap is only going to get bigger by Xmas. I’m hoping Botman comes back as good as we hope and we splash out big on a new right winger.

We are a mid table team now. If we stay around 7-10th before transfer window then splash big we might be able to push on but it’s a flat season.

Not going to be our day today. Our shooting has been tragic the past two games. Gordon should have had 4 goals.

Looks like he pulled a muscle in his back or something.

Gordon has been stinking today

Veiltman has got the ref in his pocket.

Brighton can’t possibly be as shit in the second half as well.

Can’t really complain with the performance. We deserve to be winning. Seems a role reversal of earlier in the season at the moment. We don’t have many options off the bench. Only Barnes is good for a goal. This season is a big chance missed by not strengthening it. It feels like the year we only got Bowyer in and didn’t show enough ambition to push on.

Probably means Isak is still injured and Wilson will be on the bench.

Interesting to hear he singles out Isak and Botman as our blue chip players.

Obviously it wasn't a choice but Id have rather kept him over Longstaff. Plus he is versatile and can play all across the midfield. He has a higher ceiling than Ciggy.

Howe seems to disagree with you. I guess time will tell how good he turns out.

Might as well join the club. Black and Tan Cocker Spaniel. She is from a working background so was pretty mental when younger. note: this is from a holiday in Cheddar. Obvs my decor is exquisite.

Aye, id much rather maintain something than buy new. Cars do not bother me one bit. They are a means of getting me from A to B. I look after my car pretty well but the Mrs is terrible. Looks like a rubbish skip inside and there is not one thought of getting paintwork fixed when she (regularly) scrapes her car. They aren't bangers really but we intend to just run them until they die.

Pretty sure that is John Gallacher at the end.
