Maybe Aubameyang can re-create this?

If we are going by their Arsenal times over 50 yards, both Bellerin and Walcott were faster than Henry. Hard to believe.

He would have made a great Sonny as well. Interesting aside, DeNiro and Pacino went years without ever being in the same scene of a movie. Not until 'Heat'.

Amazing how things change. I was just meandering around results and tables from the European leagues.

I hadn’t realised how poorly Parma are now. Memories of 1994 came flooding back.

How we managed to beat them that day I’ll never know.

No Ian Wright or john Jensen and a midfield containing morrow, selley and an ageing Paul Davis.

It was just a classic piece of George Graham. *%^@*** hell football used to be fun didn’t it.

And the added time seemed interminable, and was certainly unusual at that time.

I vaguely recall Eddie Mcgoldrick losing the ball as we were trying to run down the clock. Goodness me the guy was hopeless, George must have got another brown envelope for that one.

Did he ever have to pay back the 250k ?

https://www.independent.co.uk/sport/gra ... 74356.html

If his salary was worth 300k (I never knew that till I read this) it’s a substantial reward for huge risk

If an arsenal player is listed as a doubt you can bet he won’t play. No xhaka, Saka and Emile Smith Rowe for us.

Interesting line up with lots of interesting selections none more than chambers starting again.

Hoping for a decent game from ceballos, big chance for him.

Liverpool giving us a bit of an examination at the moment. Partey playing well.

Post subject:  Re: Supporters Forum

There you have the evidence of MOTD singling out Lacazette the other day. He gets caught in the face and immediately the sky commentator says ‘the replay will show us how much contact there was with Lacazette’ inferring he didn’t think there was much. Lacazette comes up with blood trickling down his face. Things like this by MOTD stick in people’s minds and players are unfairly tarnished

Yes, but the suet pastry, having spent months in the tin soaking up the kidney gravy, is the point. My granny use to make proper steak and kidney pudding (along with all the other English classics). .


It’s probably the defacto British classic dish. My Nan used to also make a decent one, not amazing but decent.

It’s often done badly at some pubs or restaurants and I’ve seen variations without the kidney which seems totally missing the point as far as I’m concerned.

The other thing she did well was liver and bacon. Another English classic. Again done in the wrong place atrocious, done well ? as satisfying as anything you could ever eat.

If you don’t like offal we can never be friends and it seems more and more people don’t like it these days

Yeah. Cutting the liver into thin strips and soaking in milk overnight is a good trick. Another classic is tripe and onions.

Steak and kidney pudding is completely unavailable here. I'll have to make one myself ... next time my wife is away.

Have we started playing yet?

Ceballos again thinking he can take more than one touch to a ball played in to his feet in a dangerous area.

We're looking well organised but we have hardly got out of our own half in the last 10 to 15 minutes.

I’m sorry but Ceballos is a weak link in midfield here. His touch is off, must have lost possession 3-4 times with a poor touch or pass

It looks like someone has forgotten to tell our players that the game has been brought forward from Sunday. We just haven’t started at all.

Need to get it to half time and re group.

Balance doesn’t look right we might need to change it. Ceballos not in the game but Partey fighting well

Very worrying to see Tierney down and looking in some trouble.
And taken off.

Phew. Done well to make it to half time still level with that performance.

Not sure how you change it with Willian, elnenny and Martinelli the creative subs. Not much you can do there. Telling ceballos to stop *%^@*** giving away the ball would be a start.

Yeah I’d definitely take a point right now

A bit fortunate to get to half time level. None of our forward players have been able to get into the game in any meaningful way. Good performances from Partey, Gabriel.

Author:  Rich [ Sat Apr 03, 2021 7:53 pm ]
Post subject:  Re: Supporters Forum

Pretty poor half. The 3 missing players are a big miss. We can’t get up and press their defence at all and the forwards are being asked to fight for scraps off hurried clearances. We cant play the ball out through the lines because of their press but also because we haven’t got enough ability to. That’s where Saka and Emile Smith Rowe are very good for different reasons, Saka’s ability to hold and roll a defender and Emile Smith Rowe ability to take up positions in those half spaces.

The other way to beat the press is with some more purposeful dribbling, if the opposition know you won’t or can’t do that then men and space are a lot easier to mark. Beat a man in the dribble and there is the potential for the whole aggressive press to fall apart because someone has to cover which leaves their man free and so on and so on

Martinelli feels like a change that needs to be made. I’d also be tempted for Elneny for Ceballos because elneny is poor press resistant in my view

Elneny in midfield for a start. Ceballos is having a poor game but he isn't a defensive midfielder.

This is awful stuff. 10 men behind the ball. Lacazette is playing so deep, it is really frustrating.

Yeah

Probably El Nenny for ceballos Aubameyang off and Martinelli or Willian who can defend better as traditional wide players.
