You're guaranteed a big mistake from each per match. We shouldn't forget that Sanchez put Rashford on a platter early on in the match.

I've been saying for a long time that Dier isn't good enough to be in the EPL and Sanchez isn't good enough to start. They showed their worth today.

Mou showed what he's all about by being absolutely cowardly like usual

Let's head to Barca Sevilla lads

tbf to Dier he also blocked a sure goal, so I feel like a 1-1 is fair, although far from what Spurs needs to secure 4th spot

I agree that the result is fair, but Dier has been awful for so long now. I’m surprised he’s still playing at this level.

Hows Mou's fav RB Aguier or whatever his name is still starting for a club like Spurs? Hes worst than Marcelo at his worst at defending and the countless mistakes he makes every game are costing Spurs.

Also enjoyed Mous reaction as always when the clueless ref was giving that second pen Loool!

Best league in the world, only 0-0 still had the worst decision in modern tech history imo

I'm just sad, really.

This is why I wasn't missing football at all. Arsenal are a travesty of a club. Well on the way to being in the bottom half of the table.

Liverpool have won 3x as many games this season, having played a game less.

Let that sink in.

They have better players in every position, so that’s not really surprising. I’m tempted to call Aubameyang an exception, but he’s the same age as me.

Wenger really was punching above his weight Shocked

Justice for Arsene

But actually, Arsenal needs a culture shift. I'd stick with Arteta for now as long as Arteta is pretty determined to turn over as much as half the team, or more.

Losing and uncertainty is too engrained in the fabric of this Arsenal team. There is no confidence. Could really use someone like Poch coming in, tbh

by Kick Sun Jun 21, 2020 3:55 am

The Sad thing is, I think Poch would be welcomed at Arsenal.

Yeah, but only for as long as people are distracted from the persistent issue of lack of quality in the squad. Rinse and repeat.

Found this thread on Reddit. Thought it was a good laugh:

Some great memories there. Proud

Good times.

I remember that match and i never felt so confident going into a united game in my life seeing their team.

They absolutely made a mockery of us Laughing

Wish SAF was still alive. He was the PL man.

Reminds me of this twitter thread three years ago.

Summer of 2013. We learned of a clause in Luis Suarez’s contract allowing him to leave for a fee over £40m. Being Arsenal we offered £40m + £1. Liverpool illegally rejected the bid, provoking this infamous tweet from their owner. pic.twitter.com/DEPSNXOjhK

Actually re-signing Mathieu Flamini was bad enough, but this was worse. pic.twitter.com/5VW1MdXiJr

January 2012 at Craven Cottage. Fulham 2-1 Arsenal. Bobby Zamora scored because Squillaci headered Koscielny instead of the ball. pic.twitter.com/ycuOyetZHx

Sol Campbell returns, plays a back pass against Porto then the ref stands in his way so he can’t defend it as they score. pic.twitter.com/XbgT0yyXub

I never understood fully how exactly Liverpool could have rejected a minimum release clause bid. I also never understood why Arsenal couldn't just add another 2 million to the bid to make look like a normal fucking bid.

I actually remembered most of those Arsenal moments as if it happened 2 minutes ago.

It wasn't illegal nor was it a release clause. We scammed Suarez during the contract making process when we signed him.

by Doc Sun Jun 21, 2020 3:24 pm

But it was a clause that would allow him to leave if a bid above 40 million was issued or was that Arsenal dreams?

by Nishankly Sun Jun 21, 2020 3:41 pm

Doc wrote:But it was a clause that would allow him to leave if a bid above 40 million was issued or was that Arsenal dreams?

Clause stated that no Champions League Qualification and 40 million is the minimum offer on the table for discussions which means it doesn't say Liverpool has to sell and it doesn't specifically say release clause, which is why Wenger came out later and said "We were badly advised".

50 million and we would have gone into discussions rather than completely blowing the gun on the transfer.

Incredibly sad to see. Hope they catch the person who paid for that.
