Does Arsenal choke against Brighton?

Does Newcastle manage to stay in top 4?

Does Arteta buy a striker in January?

Does Pep go away to spend more time with his family if he chokes away a title with a 50 goal Haaland season?

Not seen all their games, but from what i've seen they don't press quite as relentlessly, they take long breaks from doing it(they always did take breaks but not as long/frequently).

I think that's related to Haaland and might also explain why they're not as good defensively.

Then attacking wise they seem to look for him a little too much, same patterns aren't always there, at least not as much.

Makes sense. I definitely don't see them high pressing as much as I remember. Them and Liverpool's defensive players are under more pressure this season

Good Ol’ boys club. They take care of their own.

Southampton really employed that Luton manager to save them from relegation, yet to get 1 point.

Talk about a new manager bounce.

Even when he got Fulham promoted the fans didn't rate/like him as well.

Scott Parker got a Champions League calibre job?! After holding 9 to Liverpool

He got that Frank Lampard luck.

11 minutes extra time. If you’ve jinxed this

I was neutral about that game, but I was hoping City scored at the death just to see the other Arsenal fans lose their s#it about that post
