You have to give some credit to the annoying anti football that Big Sham plays. It's effective at annoying opposition players to distraction. That being said too many of our players had an off day. We of course weren't helped by a ridiculous deflection which seems to be par for the course in terms of the luck that Big Sham enjoys. It could still be a decent week for us depending on results today and Monday night, and even if those results don't go for us we have a chance with our home game on Thursday to leave ourselves only needing two points from two game.

Why is being a sensitive prick a bad thing?

As someone said in the comments if you're looking for a post win GIF this should do the job 😂

Pretty cringe given it's Americans interviewing Howe, but it's probably just about worth a watch.

I will refrain from referring to him as Fat Sham for a period of one week, and will until that time refer to him as merely Big Sham.

This is actually pretty funny in fairness.

The original article seems to be a lighthearted one as Gemmill has pointed out, but where I seen it was on Twitter as a screen shot where opposition fans were actually taking it seriously 😂

Has anyone told them that the ship has sailed on that perception. Perhaps back to Spain 😉👍

Apparently someone has been compiling a list of Tindall's "crimes" this season. Not rattled at all these lads.

Apparently Guler will only cost 5m if he fails to play something like another 300 minutes of football this season. Fenerbahce have another 5 league games so he could easily exceed that stipulation and then his buy out clause goes up to 20m iirc.

As I've said before I'm probably more excited for Ashworth finding a hidden gem comparable to Mitoma, Mac Allister etc at Brighton than I am about us paying 40m+ on a player. Although if you listen to some Brighton fans they'll tell you that Ashworth had little to do with them bringing said players in, and it was down to the recommendations of their scouting network/head scout. I'd imagine that's mostly sour grapes and the truth lies somewhere in the middle. At the end of the day it was Ashworth who created said scouting network and who had to sign off on said recommendations.

Joelinton was spotted in training there, so it would appear that he's been able to shake off that knock he got against Arsenal. There were reports that he was seen limping when he left St. James.

Attacking mid who can play a few different positions. He has six goals and four assists in 29 apps this season, 16 of those apps from the bench. I'd imagine he'd be squad player at most if we're actually interested given his age.

How dare you besmirch the honour of Cheetara by putting this menopausal wine bag in the same bracket 😐😤

Do you reckon he doesn't know the difference between a wet dream and pissing himself?

Is it wrong that I'm starting to warm to him somewhat 😂 Still, it is more than a little annoying that this guy is turning into a go to representative for fans of the club.

Thankfully we play before Liverpool this week, so it will be crucial to put them under pressure. If we win and they lose they'll know only the very unlikely scenario of them winning their two other games, us losing our three remaining games, and them over taking us in goal difference would see them overtake us. Away to Leicester on Monday night against a team fighting to stay up, anything can happen. Leicester still have some very good players who on their day can cause Liverpool problems. A Liverpool who's away form has killed their season. As for Leeds Eddie should be too much for Alardicci and his tactics. Longstaff is a big loss if indeed he is out for the season, but I'm sure Howe will find a solution to help us over the line. On a side note, what's the over-under that Fat Sham visits a dominatrix and wears women's lingerie under his suits.

He's clearly going to get kidnapped by a set of Ultras who will mistakenly think anyone will give a shite 😂 He'll survive by agreeing to become their gimp.

😂

I seen some Man U fans saying that Rashford should be sold because he only plays for himself😂 Fucking hell that's a bit of a turnaround. I thought Rashford was the second coming not so long ago according to them.

What do you say about that. Firstly Ramsdale was their best player with Odegaard a close second. A bit more clinical and we could have easily won the game. A draw was the least we deserved and would have been a fair result when you, again, look at how we worked Ramsdale. But we have to give credit to Arsenal who weathered our early storm and showed some guts. You also have to acknowledge that they have players with greater technical skill in the wide attacking areas. Apart from Isak pretty much playing out of position we are weak when it comes to accurate passes into the box from our wingers. Almiron and Murphy break my heart with some of the positions they get into only to play the ball behind our attacking players or generally just waste the opportunity. The positives are that we didn't play badly and we came up against a very good team, and next up we have a team down the bottom of the table. Playing a relegation threatened team comes with its own difficulties but if we play as well as we did today we shouldn't have any problems. Related to that I hope fans do take the fact that we played well and lost a tight game to heart and don't start pissing themselves on social media about top 4. I know lads on here joke about mostly but there's some right doom merchants on twitter and elsewhere. You would hope that the players wouldn't be affected by fan pessimism or negativity, but we should be giving all the positivity and support we can until the end regardless. Oh and Bruno clearly needs a rest. He's been shocking by his own standards for more than a few games now. The only problem is that we have no one to replace him with. That problem along with needing more technical quality in attacking areas will hopefully be addressed in the summer. We should always remember how far ahead we are of schedule.

Longstaff is going to be a big miss, but hopefully we take advantage of Saliba still being missing, and perhaps Gabriel isn't 100%. Then again I heard that the new centre back that Arteta replaced Holding with played very well the other week.
