1. The thing about Liverpool fans is, they’re so deluded you could point out that recent run to them and they’d turn around and say “Yeah? Well at least we’re in the Champions League”….with a straight face.

2. ..and they could say with equal strait faces ‘Well at least we smashed you 4-0″
   Let’s not get too smug about Liverpool (or any other teams come that) until we start achieving some respectability ourselves.

3. equally straight faces

4. Jax…and we could say with equanl straight face more than a decade 4th place was not a trophy… ;=)
   And that the FA Cup is not a trophy when you keep winning it :=))

5. This can’t be correct, it must be fake news, AW has more points than Moaninho the tactical genius, in their last 100 league games, I’m told by a few on here that AW is tactically clueless, he’s a dinosaur, his team can’t defend blah blah blah.

   Not often you get this type of article about AW, usually it’s all doom and gloom.

6. Polo,

   correct me if I’m wrong, but Guardiola and Conte are in their 2nd season, so their record includes results in the Bundeliga and in Serie A

   Considering how ‘tighter’ the PL is, I can imagine the result would not be the same had they had 100 PL games under their belt, as even Mourinho can’t beat the person he calls a so-called ‘serial loser’

   Again, the stats are tweaked….but I agree, this shows that AW is way better then the WOB pretends/believes/says. Good point

   UEFA seems to be replacing meaningless friendlies with a new Nations League?

   Marca was reading the Daily Mail, and come up with their own summary of Chelsea being investigated by the infant one’s FIFA for not following the rules on signing youths (under 18). This is the third investigation of Chelsea by FUFA for the same type of problem.

8. @ Chris, that’s correct, it includes their prior clubs. It just beggars belief that some still believe that AW is ‘tactically clueless’ and that the game has moved on and he’s left behind. I guess believing in evidence are not their forte.

9. I’ve all along suspected Liverpool may suffer after shamelessly poaching Oxlade Chamberlain from Arsenal during the last days of the last summer transfer window. Therefore, their current winless run in 4 games since they signed Chamberlain is a testament to my suspicion of game loses I suspected they’ll encounter if they sign the rebel Ox fro mArsenal who they didn’t want to sell.

   But nevertheless, while Liverpool continue to suffer, Arsenal have been counting their blessings since the Ox left them. More so, as other senior Gunner in the Arsenal senior team squad like Bellerin has stepped up in his wingback role game for Arsenal and has proved to be more than adequate to fill the void left behind by the Ox departure to Liverpool. And a youngster Gunner in the name of Reiss Nelson in the Arsenal U23 squad is hungrily in the wait to breakthrough into the Arsenal senior first team squad to show the hidden top quality in him for Arsenal in their games. So, in short, Arsenal didn’t miss the Ox at all and are not regretting selling him to Liverpool.

   In fact, Man City should thank their star they did not succeed in their summer transfer window attempt to poach Alexis Sanchez away from Arsenal. Had they succeeded in that their deadline transfer day attempted poaching away Sanchez, the winless game run curse that has currently befallen Liverpool will certainly have befell them too and the resultant suffer they would’ve suffered will be worse than what Liverpool are currently going through.

10. Its not so much that AW is tactically clueless, he’s just not as efficient at using tactics as many others.
    For instance, i think he tends to rely on the players (a little too much for me) to develop an on field command of the game and problems and deal with them.
    Players after the invincibles tended not to have this ability as much.
    Lets hope he begins to use his wealth of experience more and not to rely on the players tactics unless they show they can deal with it.

    Although i dont like to wish evil on anyone(except the parasites)i trust(hope) that the Ox will not be successful at liverpool to Arsenal’s detriment. 🙂
