Just 50 million?
How long till we start aiming for Romas head proper? Considering hes returning from an injury I'm giving him till December..never imagined he'd ever be the cause of any issues for us

For me, Roma has always been overrated. He's above average, he got a pass because it was easier to blame the midfield and his partner. Oh poor Roma look at the shyt he has to play with and people over looked his flaws because he Italian and they wanted him to be Nesta, mainly because of wearing his number. Now he has been unlucky, because he needed schooling and seasoning with an experience partner like Thiago Silva had with Nesta. The only player that was bought in to do that is an even worst defender than he is, in Bonucci. But his concentration and positioning is poor and the reading of the game/decision making is more an mental aspect of the game. He's 26 in Jan, they are things as a player you should have in your locker by that age.

I know I'm late on this, but Ajax started looking like Ajax the second ten Hag dropped Labyad and started playing Lassina Traore. That kid's fun to watch. He's got a special instinct for the ball in the box and he works so hard.

MLS playoffs fukkery has started in the first round

KC scored in injury time thinking that was it over only for Wondo to score in the 97th minute

 

[CEO of Morgan Industries]

I feel foreboding about the MLS playoffs. Feeling like we're taking an L to LAFC or to Portland (again).

Sporting KC losing would be funny, though. Hope they choke in extra time.

Melia was off his line for every PK but ref didn't call any of them

Even though I say that, Melia was 3 for 3 in PK saves

Milan coming for that serie a title

Get fukked, Timbers.

Your squad is shyt. Edu and Kia and whoever else is apart of it is to blame for that.

Until you get rid of Kola, Mustafi, Luiz, Laca, Torreira, Sideshow Jr, Sokratis, Bellerin, Xhaka. You ain't doing shyt. That's easily 150m in sales and wages off the books.

The board and it's underlings got you Pepe and Willian you going to have to pay off for the next 3 years. Yeah Arteta might of signed off on Willian. But what other options was he given instead? I don't remember other wingers linked with Arsenal.

The so called youth academy only got you two proper players in what a decade? Nelson and Willock aren't good enough. Eddie because he's a poacher is handy to have, but at best he's a 3rd choice striker.

Your best player/striker is the wrong side of 30.

You had to sell your best keeper because of funds. Regardless if Arteta didn't give Martinez a arm around the shoulder and tell him he was his #1. Martinez makes the club a profit. Leno they haven't fully paid for, nor had any suitors and if there were nobody paying what Arsenal paid for him.

After the club said they will no longer allow players to enter last year of their contracts, allowing players to enter the last year of contracts.

Also let's not forget Arsenal had the shortest time off from FA Final to Community Shield. United is second and going off the performances this season both teams look heavy legged and off the pace.

Does Arteta deserve blame sure, got Arsenal looking like Moyes Everton. But Arsenal like United have other issues beyond the playing side of things and as you know with the NBA and NFL teams, it usually comes from incompetence from ownership that filters down and infects the playing side of things. Just because Ivan and the Barca fraud have gone doesn't mean things have changed for the good. Just because Stan gave a little bit more money. That's what the Glazers been doing to United fans post Fergie.

I’ll blame the Kroenke’s for the lack of direction but he cuts checks and stays out the way. This isn’t a Jerry Jones or James Dolan situation where they step on their people’s work. Failure to hire the right people is ultimately on them but they aren’t football people, so cut the checks is all I ask. The club has operated with a CL budget without CL football for four years. None of these American owners are actively involved with their clubs, maybe only John Henry and that’s because he’s trying to break the back of English football

I can’t excuse Edu and Arteta at all. They have all the power and have given me Willian, Mari, Luiz on mind boggling money, refused to sell 3/4 players. Running Saka into the ground, poor handling of Saliba, binning Voldemort without a replacement. I’ll blame the board for Voldemort’s situation but Arteta hasn’t shown me anything that says he can manage Arsenal Football Club

Pepe done?

 

[DapMeUp!]

I know everyone is on a Arteta hate crusade right now, but he said what I have heard many managers say and what most would say for how Pepe got sent off.
"He let the team down and he knows that" has been said plenty of times for similiar incidents.

Your not going to ever mince your words when your player gets sent off for a stupid headbutt.
Jose throws his players under the bus for a lot less it's not really comparable.

The goners got mugged off on that transfer fee
