I truly believe that Wenger can break his duck next season.
By Pennywise Go To PostThanks.
Also thanks to Francis.
What a game. Fucking cunt refs giving 5 minutes extra time despite nearly no long breaks.
Phew. Frankfurt should be possible. What a time.
Bayern Bonus. Never seen 6 minutes in Bundesliga even with dead people on the pitch.
By batong Go To PostGood thing I'm away from the footy. Predictable results galore.Ready for baseball? Jelly you'll get to see Thor pitch in person. I'm still bitter about that trade...
Europa is fine if Wenger makes a commitment to just play the kids and only the kids, League Cup style.
Don't even bother bringing the first team along, don't tempt yourself.

By Laboured Go To PostNot aware of any development or big fees going on here.DeBruyne was also loaned to a club that brought him forward. Something thats incredible difficult to choose and it's just a shame that so many end up at shitty clubs.
Honest question, are you aware of any of these boys going on to do anything of note?
I can think of Matic but that's about it. De Bruyne and Lukaku weren't really youth players per se.
By Bungie Go To Post+47
fucking hell
If Chelsea were in Europe we would be winning this league. It's incredible what we have done in the league when you consider the CL/EL, cup run, injuries etc. Poch is a genius.

By Laboured Go To PostJust seen the weekend fixtures. Absolutely hate that all the good fixtures are crammed into Sunday.At least United's is at 6 am so I can wake up to the draw and not have to lose my mind watching it.
Tomorrow is gonna test my patience tho.
By Perfect Blue Go To Postsuch a trash post. Read what Vlatko said.
What's the age limit in the FA Youth Cup?
Seems to me any talented youngsters Chelsea develops haven't even come close to cracking the first team regardless.

Best manager in the league
no debate

We arent winning the league anyway
id love to have a go on an european tournament for a change

Seems like every fan of every club says this about the EL before it starts, including United fans. Never ever works out that way.
By Perfect Blue Go To PostReady for baseball? Jelly you'll get to see Thor pitch in person. I'm still bitter about that trade…Still can't be bothered to understand the rules but hey yo what are you going to do.
Poch will never win the league with Tottenham.
Think he is a good manager but just don't see them being able to overcome the bigger teams especially with the tighter stadium budget.
Clubs will come in for some of the better players this summer as well.

Fuck the Europa league. Let's go back to developing good players. It's the one thing Wenger's really good at.
By Laboured Go To PostSeems like every fan of every club says this about the EL before it starts, including United fans. Never ever works out that way.
I know. We're fucked.
At least the CL place makes the slog really really worth it in the end. But it looks a lot easier than it actually is.
By Pele.gif Go To PostLadsmashallah
we are already qualified for the Europa after today.
Thursdays nights here we go
By Laboured Go To PostNot aware of any development or big fees going on here.Perhaps you've heard of Champions League winner Ryan Bertrand and Palace superstar Patrick Van Aanholt? Oh, you want some more? How does one Fabio Borini taste? Huh? Mad yet? Exactly.

I got your back Disso.
:/
EL is entertaining, but there is no way I'm going to watch Arsenal just sleep through EL. I'd rather we don't get Europe at all.
By Wedward Go To PostPoch will never win the league with Tottenham.What is missing from the team he has tho? Maybe a winger and a MF (or a "leader")? The quality is there imo.

Fuck, I genuinely forgot Borini came from you guys.
I just dont want to play play-offs to enter the Europa. What do we have to do to join it already on the group stage, finish 5th?
By Pele.gif Go To PostI just dont want to play play-offs to enter the Europa. What do we have to do to join it already on the group stage, finish 5th?
Nah, I want playoffs. Lose, and we can just skip the group stage entirely and romp our way to the title.
Tanking season has begun.
By inky Go To PostWhat is missing from the team he has tho? Maybe a winger and a MF (or a "leader")? The quality is there imo.
Mentality.
Don't think the timing is going to work out either. They needed to win last year or this year. It is the same issue with Arsenal. We missed our window.
United and City are going to be competitive next year. Chelsea too.

M8 we wont win the league under Wenger. The club will want the minimum 3 60k emirates allocation fee innit
If we had a good manager, then id agree with you. Might as well enjoy the trips.
By Laboured Go To PostFuck, I genuinely forgot Borini came from you guys.Feel like we own a substantial portion of the North an apology for bringing him into the country.
Poch can buy himself and Tottenham more time before players start leaving for "big" clubs (see: Arsenal) if they win trophies + start going deep in Europe. I haven't really seen much evidence that Poch has the tactical nous to become that type of cup specialist, imo. (Yet - he's earned himself plenty of time.)
Very hard for smaller teams to overcome budget difference in league form extrapolated over 38 matches, especially with six big clubs with established managers vying at the top now.

FA Cup would have been a great way to kick things off.
Unfortunately, we will be winning it instead.

If Leicester weren't in CL, I am sure they would be winning the league as well. Amazing work by Shakespear imo.

Nah, just top 4.
