He could have played Benny there instead of Choudhary.

Though our downturn in form did start when we lost that Football God, Andy King

The Bro with the 'Fro! Developing well, but early days. Am I the only one who thinks that our poor run coinciding with Andy King going is no coincidence? 🤘

Diabate was great first half, headless chicken second. He set up the first goal, when Arsenal still had 11 players. Real potential. Gray went down easily for that penalty.

Doomed. Not much on the bench either.

Much as I am fond of big Nige, a third go is too much. Wenger will not manage again in the premiership, and no way is Dyche missing out on taking his Burnley team on a European tour. We could do a lot worse than Wagner, and keeping Puel is a lot worse.

The break before the PL winning season was a shambles including a manager sacked following a racist gang bang of Thai prostitutes, on top of a few other farces. We not only survived, we thrived.

I would have stayed if I had known about the Lap. I was in my seat from about 1450, didn't hear a thing. I thought all the police and stewards were to stop a pitch invasion, after the earlier one. Feel bad for Huth and the Thais, but communication needed to happen.

I agree, but best of a poor bunch. Fuchs OK too. Drago good when he came on. Diabate best of a pisspoor midfield. Vardy feeding off scraps. So Benny best of a bad lot of starters.

Some have been injured on field, so are kosher. Perhaps something wrong in training and preparation, but not phoning in a sickie.

Benny was Motm today.

Puel is attempting suicide by cop, surely the only explanation.

The other thing was that even in the long poor run during The Great Escape Season, we were playing well and with heart. We were losing by one goal, not getting hammered. The improvement was slight, but critical, to win by one goal. Pearson will always be a legend to me, but I am not convinced 3rd time round is wise.

That was when I knew Shakey wasn't up to it, same goes for Puel now. Appleton for the rest of the season, then a major sorting out over the summer.

Hopefully Appleton will be in charge by next Saturday.
