Can anyone tell me why Firmino gets booked for taking off his shirt when all he has on underneath is a plain, red shirt? Whos that meant to be offending? ? Its nothing to do with offense, sponsors etc. Its listed as an offense in the laws of the game as an act of unsportsmanlike behaviour. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arsenal I think will stumble to 6th, a way behind whoever comes 5th (which I'm not even ruling Chelsea out on yesterdays performance). With a bit more consistency from us they'd be catchable. If we don't beat them this year we never will. Weve beaten them already remember Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spudulike Posted 14 January 2018 Share Posted 14 January 2018 Oh jeez, work tomorrow with those plastic Liverpudlians that talk about 'us' and 'we' who have no connections with the place or have seen them play this century. FFS 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can’t be serious? that is horrendous, I’m sure there are better managers in the championship and league one well o’neill turned them down now so maybe this is all they have Edited 14 January 2018 by foxes_rule1978 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bryn Posted 14 January 2018 Share Posted 14 January 2018 Looking at the list available managers there are few managers out there with experience of avoiding relegation which is what they need. They could do A LOT worse than to try and lure Pearson away from Leuven. Experience of beating the drop, known motivator, reasonable age, history of taking clubs from a low ebb to success whilst building a squad from scratch and axing expensive deadwood, not afraid of playing a style of football which is appropriate for the ability of the squad but not averse to a sprinkling of flair. Fits the Stoke bill well in my opinion and you'd think would fancy a return to the PL. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

New manager threads keep popping up like mushrooms and some are indeed hallucinogenic ... http://oatcakefanzine.proboards.com/thread/275714/all-out-pearson?page=1 When Hughes asked at the end "who else is going to do it?", he was more grounded in reality than the club or fans.

He asked players he bought...to hold their hands up, to be the quality they profess to be, to play the way he created, he gave them a platform....If he failed, what then did those so called Superstars do...Wenger I believe is still a top coach, who stayed at a semi-successfull club, who forgot to back him..and support him, and sold him out... Yes imho, he should of moved on 2 yrs ago, but he can hold his head up, For what a great Part he played in the History of the PL . Oh yes we weasels have fun, when we can take the mick at their expense,Hoping sometimeswe just might Get a result against a consistent top 5 club....but the pisstakers remain the nobodies.. Not even the court of pundits, can challenge such managers CV.. Wenger, jumped in the trenches, Won all local national Competitions, reached european finals, never Winning one. But hey-ho..give me his last 6 years!! Never out of the top 5-6, qualified consistently for Europe. Better , often than 89 clubs from 92 in the English profi world.... If The foxes had his record, my God I would not be hacking him off.. More the players for not living up to his standards of late, and the club Behind him not being Descisive. Those thoughts come 1st, before any outside fan, believe they can feel cosy, by jumping on The Disconsenters wagon...We can all say and have an opinion whether he should step down, But he doesnt deserve spitfull disrespectfull incompetent utterings from outside, not now he is probably, Struggling to get his also ran players not producing those reaL highs, of yesteryear. I might have loved to hate Arsenal, like the trees, but Cloughie and Now Wenger, help to up the Challenges and Quality of what was a poor English football market... Its easy to hack and jizz, higher achievers, showing respect with banter is far more difficult... Edited 14 January 2018 by fuchsntf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wortho Posted 14 January 2018 Share Posted 14 January 2018 Wenger was good we he only had one other competitor. Now he has 4 or 5. Afc are the 3rd biggest net spender over the last 3 years. He has a great record of being in 3 euro finals and lost them all. He lets Sanchez, Ozil and Wilshire run down their contracts so are worth virtually nothing. Wenger says by doing this the club are in "an ideal situation". Wtf!!! Was good but is totally awful now. A specialist in failure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Man Utd, CFC, Real, Barca? The manager would be long gone after a year. You mention also ran players. Wenger signs every one of them. I don't think Wenger even coaches any more. He always blames everyone else, pitches, refs, fixture congestion, injuries anything but himself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Devonfox1884 Posted 14 January 2018 Share Posted 14 January 2018 Having watched them today, I honestly think we may have half a chance of catching Arsenal and taking 6th. They're a shambles, and if we can find a bit more consistency, we can make up those 8 points. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
